Now we have a Unitarian Bishop in Sweden
2007. July 19. ThursdayDear Friends,
I am very happy to tell you all that there now is a Unitarian Bishop in Scandinavia. Not long ago Rev. Ragnar Emilsen of the Unitarian Church in Sweden was appointed Unitarian bishop in order to preserve and to continue the Transylvanian church tradition and teaching going back to Francis David in 1568. This would also mean that for the first time in history it is now in Scandinavia opened up for Unitarian Christian ordinations of Transylvanian Unitarian Christian succession.
Ragnar Emilsen was ordained in 1987 to the Unitarian ministery by bishop Lajos Kovács (1909-1994) of the Unitarian Church in Romania.
