Religion
The Macedonians in Sweden are predominantly of the Orthodox faith. On 14. January 1973 they established the first Macedonian Orthodox Church municipality (MPCO) in Europe dedicated to Naum of Ohrid. There are currently two Macedonian Orthodox Churches in Sweden, Makedoniska ortodoxa kyrkan Sveti Naum Ohridski in Malmö which have 4000 believers, and Makedoniska Ortodoxa Kyrkliga Församlingen in Göteborg. Both of them are part of Macedonian Orthodox Church, led by metropolitan of European Diocese.
