The Nordic CatholicChurch lang no den nordisk katolske kirke is a church body in Norway of High Church Lutheranism High Church Lutheran origin, under the auspices of the PolishNationalCatholicChurch and the Union of Scranton. The Nordic CatholicChurch was founded in 1999 by a group of Catholic minded people belonging to the orthodox opposition in the Lutheranism Lutheran state Church of Norway when they left the state church due to, for example, the ordination of women to the priesthood and episcopate. During the process both the Anglican Forward in Faith organisation and the Free Synod of the Church of Sweden were kept fully informed. In Sweden it was paralleled by the foundation of the Missionsprovinsen Mission Province of the Church of Sweden. The Statement of Faith of the Nordic CatholicChurch states that it adheres to its Lutheran heritage to the extent that it has embraced and transmitted the orthodox and catholic faith of the undivided church, therefore also embracing the Catholic faith as taught by the PolishNationalCatholicChurch . The bishop of the Nordic CatholicChurch in Scandinavia is Roald Nikolai Flemestad. The Nordic CatholicChurch has presently five parishes in Norway and a developing community in Stockholm, Sweden.
