Elävä seurakunta - Levande församling

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Elävä seurakunta - Levande församling (Finnish/Swedish for 'Living Congregation') is a nominating group for the elections to assemblies of the Church of Sweden. The group is based in Stockholm, and wants to promote Finnish-Swedish bilingualism in the Church. The group is opposed to same-sex marriage.

The group made its electoral debut in the 2005 Church elections, but without winning any seat in the Church Assembly. It only presented a list in one diocese, the Diocese of Stockholm.
