  • General Info
General Information
Description
Christina Odenberg is the retired bishop of the Diocese of Lund in Sweden between 1997 and 2007. Christina Odenberg is the daughter of Ingemar Odenberg and Kerstin, born Moberg. Odenberg was for some time politically active in the Moderate party and her brother Mikael Odenberg was Sweden's Minister for Defence 2006-2007. She was ordained in Stockholm the 17 of December 1967. She served as a priest in �sterg�tland county first as an assistant vicar in �stra Ryd then as vicar in �ster�ker-�stra Ryd. 1990 she became deneary in Roslags kontrakt. When the then bichop of the Diocese of Lund K. G. Hammar was made archbishop of Uppsala Odenberg was appointed as his successor on June 5, 1997. This made her the first female bishop in the history of the Church of Sweden. The 27th of December 2001 she caused a lot of attention and from some circles outrage when she in a sermon called "the gift of Love" blessed the partnership of Anna Karin Hammar and Ninna Edgardh Beckman. She was even by some groups accused of breaking her priestly pledges by blessing something they claimed as a sin. Odenberg is the spiritual protector of the Swedish section of the Order of Saint Lazarus
