History
Lumijoki literally means "snow river", most likely through Lumijärvi, the lake from which the river Lumijoki once began from. Toponyms with the word lumi usually refer to areas where the snow stays for longer than in nearby areas. The village was first mentioned in 1548, when it was a part of the Liminka parish. It gained chapel rights in 1640, eventually becoming an independent parish and municipality in 1867.[5]
The summer services of the Conservative Laestadianism community were held in Lumijoki in 2011, and over 80,000 people attended.[6][7]
