Nick Howe is Church of England Chaplain here in Stockholm. He often cooperates with his colleagues in the Church of Sweden and he comes to the Lutheran Cathedral several times a week. The way spirituality, political power and human vanity coexists in this cathedral, fascinates him.

Mary Philipson, though American by birth, she has been working as a priest in Church of Sweden her entire life. She loves this old building with all its hidden secrets.
