Linda Helenius (July 5, 1894 in Pöytyä – April 18, 1960 in Helsinki) was a Finnish nurse, missionary and writer. Helenius was among the Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Mission missionaries in Owamboland (modern Namibia and Angola) in 1921–1952. She took a hospital position in the Oukwanyama territory, first at Engela and then Eenhana.

In 1922 she opened a small clinic in Kwanyama; she established another medical base in Eenhana in 1933.^[1]
