🇩🇰🇸🇪🇳🇴 Young Scandinavians are increasingly turning to the CATHOLIC CHURCH According to Catholic leaders in Norway, some are arriving after years of experimenting with New Age spirituality, paganism and a lifestyle that ultimately left them searching for something more. Ragnhild Aadland Høen of Norway's Catholic bishops: “This is one of the world’s most secular regions, and many have tried out the predominant worldview and found it empty” Similar interest is emerging in Sweden and Denmark. The Catholic Church now counts around 406,000 members across the five Nordic countries, although immigration, particularly from Poland, accounts for much of its wider growth. In societies where religion has become increasingly optional, some young people are actively CHOOSING the traditions their grandparents' generation moved away from. And the Church is now trying to figure out how to welcome them all. Source: @visegrad24, OSV News / Writer: Oliver
