What to expect at a Church of Sweden service

How long: About an hour.
Standing & sitting: Stand for hymns and the Gospel, sit for the readings and sermon.
Communion: All baptised Christians are welcome to receive Communion, children too.
If you belong to another church: Your own church may have its own rule. The Catholic Church asks Catholics not to receive Communion in Protestant churches, and Orthodox churches ask the same of Orthodox Christians, even though you are welcome here. If that applies to you, come forward with arms crossed over the chest for a blessing, or simply stay seated. Everyone can join in the prayers and hymns.
What to wear: No dress code.
Good to know: Hymn numbers are shown on boards at the front, and the hymnal (psalmbok) is in the pews. Church coffee (kyrkkaffe) often follows.
