One diocese, many peoples

A small Church of all nations

The whole of Sweden forms a single Catholic diocese, the Diocese of Stockholm. Its faithful come from many countries, and Mass is celebrated in many languages and in several Eastern rites. The Bridgettine Sisters, the Order of St Bridget of Sweden renewed by St Maria Elisabeth Hesselblad, still pray in Vadstena and Djursholm.
