A bishop gets retired.











Some weeks ago, the 29th of October, we attended a special and very emotional ceremony at the Storkyrkan in Stockholm.
It was the ceremony where the bishop of Stockholms stift Caroline Krook left her official position as bishop.
The church was full of people who came to witness the ceremony, and to thank and wish good-buy to the leaving Caroline.
Part of the ceremony was leaving the bishop's crosier and cope, as a sign that the position was free now for the new bishop, who had already been elected, and who would be ordained a week later In Upsalla.
After the end of the ceremony there was a really long queue of all those that wanted to say personally a few words to Caroline Krook.
