• Church_of_Sweden abstract "The Church of Sweden (Swedish: Svenska kyrkan) is the largest Christian church in Sweden. A member of the Porvoo Communion, the Church professes the Lutheran branch of Christianity. It is composed of thirteen dioceses, divided into parishes. It is an open national church which, working with a democratic organisation and through the ministry of the church, covers the whole nation. The Primate of the Church of Sweden is the Archbishop of Uppsala, currently Antje Jackelén, Sweden's first female archbishop.Unlike most other Protestant churches—including most Lutheran churches—the Church of Sweden (along with its offshoot, the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland) continues to maintain the historical episcopate. It is liturgically and theologically "high church", having retained priests, vestments, and the Mass during the Swedish Reformation.The Church of Sweden is commonly known for its liberal position in theological issues, particularly the question of homosexuality. When Bishop Eva Brunne was consecrated as Bishop of Stockholm in 2009 she became the first openly lesbian bishop in the world.Despite a significant yearly loss of members (larger than 1% annually), its membership of 6,357,508 people accounts for 66% of the Swedish population. It is the largest Lutheran church in the world, although combined, there are more Lutherans in the member churches of the Evangelical Church in Germany (10 million). Until 2000 it held the position of state church. The high membership numbers are due to the fact that until 1996, all newborn children were made members, unless their parents had actively cancelled their membership. Approximately 2% of the church's members regularly attend Sunday services. According to a Gallup poll conducted in 2009, 17% of the Swedish population considered religion as an important part of their daily life.".
