The ''församling'', | The ''församling'', means congregation. The ''socken'', is the parish jurisdiction within a ''pastorat''. Most parishes are territorial meaning they have jurisdiction for a geographical area. Others (espectially in the cities) are non-territorial. Each socken has a church building and the ''kyrkoherde'''s (the priest/pastor) territorial congregation outside the city, when applicable.<ref>Wikipedia contributors, "Församling," in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia'', https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%B6rsamling, accessed 26 February 2019.</ref> For more information about the ''församling/socken'', see [https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%B6rsamling this article]. | ||
