Since 2009, the Church of Sweden has been organizing weddings for same-sex couples.

The Church of Sweden has an obligation to marry, which means that they are obliged to ensure that a priest performs the marriage.

However, an individual priest does not have an obligation to marry and can therefore say no to marrying a same-sex couple.

Ahead of this year's church election, many church politicians now want to change the rules.

How the Church of Sweden, as one of Sweden's largest forest owners, takes responsibility for the environment and how the Church of Sweden should look and function in the future are also two issues that play a major role in this year's election.
