Evangelical Lutheran Diocese of Norway

The Evangelical Lutheran Diocese of Norway (Norwegian: Det evangelisk-lutherske stift i Norge) is a Lutheran diocese in Norway, founded in Kautokeino in 2013.[1] Branched out from the "Church of Norway in Exile" (formerly the Deanery of Strandebarm), the bishop of the diocese is Thor Henrik With.

The diocese co-operates with the Mission Province of Sweden and the Evangelical Lutheran Mission Diocese of Finland. The three dioceses have church fellowship.[2]
