On October 15, 2013, she was elected the 70th Archbishop of Uppsala and formally received through a service in Uppsala Cathedral on June 15, 2014, making her Sweden's first foreign-born archbishop since the 12th century, and the first female archbishop.〔Svenska Dagbladet :(Klimatet är en högst teologisk fråga ). June 15, 2014.〕〔Fox News/Associated Press: (Sweden elects its first female archbishop, the German-born bishop of Lund )〕 Jackelén was ordained a priest in the Church of Sweden in 1980 and became Doctor of Theology at Lund University in 1999. Previously she was Bishop of Lund from 2007 to 2014. == Biography == Jackelén was born June 4, 1955 in Herdecke, West Germany. She studied Lutheran theology at the University of Tübingen and Uppsala University. Jackelén served as a priest in Tyresö parish in the Diocese of Stockholm 1981-1988, in Gårdstånga parish in the Diocese of Lund 1988-1994 and in the Cathedral parish of Lund 1995-1996. After finishing her doctorate, she worked at Lund University 1999-2001 and was assistant professor of Systematic Theology/Religion and Science at the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago 2001-2003. From 2003 she was Associate Professor and Director of the Zygon Center for Religion and Science until 2007. Jackelén was elected Bishop of Lund in 2006, and succeeded Christina Odenberg in 2007. Odenberg had been the first woman to become a bishop in the Church of Sweden, and Jackelén became the third. Jackelén was the first woman to be appointed as bishop after a popular vote in the diocese, the two former (Odenberg in 1997, and Caroline Krook, Bishop of Stockholm, in 1998) having both been appointed by the Swedish government before the separation of the Church of Sweden from the state in 2000. Jackelén was ordained Bishop of Lund by Anders Wejryd, Archbishop of Uppsala, in Uppsala Cathedral on 15 April 2007, and was received in her diocese through a service in Lund Cathedral on 21 April. As her official motto, she chose ''Gud är större ("God is greater")'', referring to a passage in the First Epistle of John (1 John 3.18-20) and this also became the title of her pastoral letter, published in 2011. As Bishop of Lund, Jackelén was one of the assistant officiants during the state wedding of Victoria, Crown Princess of Sweden, and Daniel Westling, in 2010.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kungahuset.se/royalcourt/mediacentre/pressreleases/olderpressreleases/pressreleasesearlier/officiatingclergymenappointedforweddingbetweencrownprincessvictoriaandmrdanielwestling.5.1a6f639212652d9b15a800015257.html )〕 She has served as representative of the Church of Sweden on the Lutheran World Federation council. She was elected Archbishop of Uppsala on October 15 in 2013 and was officially received in Uppsala Cathedral on June 15, 2014, in the presence of Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden and Queen Silvia of Sweden, after the retirement of Anders Wejryd.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kungahuset.se/royalcourt/royalfamily/latestnews/latestnews/thekingandqueenandthecrownprincessattendthearchiepiscopalordinationofantjejackelen.5.44b9de9714527ae8f1d24510.html )〕 In March 2014, Johan Tyrberg was elected to succeed her as Bishop of Lund. On Monday, May 4, 2015, she had an official audience with Pope Francis. This makes her the first woman and archbishop to be welcomed at the Vatican. Her and the Pope's churches, while having very important and major differences (the stances on the state of ordination and the clergy, Marian beliefs, and their stances on some contemporary social issues, for example), did publish a document on the push toward theological dialogue and communion regarding the anniversary of the Protestant Reformation. She has several points of agreement, notably on evolution and the climate, the need for dialogue between science and religion, and the need to care for the poor, and to support some continued role for the Churches in public life, even in secularized societies which tend to want to separate the two.〔http://www.microsofttranslator.com/bv.aspx?from=&to=en&a=http%3A%2F%2Fpress.vatican.va%2Fcontent%2Fsalastampa%2Fen%2Fbollettino%2Fpubblico%2F2015%2F05%2F04%2F0333%2F00729.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Antje Jackelén」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
