The 16,000 inhabitants of the Faroe Islands are all Lutherans Political and Religious History Christianity ; as early as 1076 they had a bishop of their own. The bishops of the Faroe islands were usually chosen from the canons of Bergen, and were originally suffragans of Hamburg-Bremen, later of Lund (1104), finally (since 1152) of the Primate of Norway in Trondjem. There were in all twenty-three Catholic bishops, from Gunmund to Amund Olafson. The latter was forced to yield to the Lutheran superintendent Jens Riber, who also took over the episcopal title. Later on only "provosts" were elected. The Catholic clergy remained steadfast in their faith, but were unable to resist the advance of Protestantism Protestant worship.

    F aroe I slands S tudy C ircle The Faroe Islands Study Circle was formed in 1991. It was established to bring together collectors of Faroe Islands' postage stamps, postmarks, postal history and so on. It allows collectors to share information about their interests. Many of the Study Circle's members also have a more general interest in the Faroe Islands - their geography, history, flora and fauna, transportation, etc and the Study Circle endeavours to cater for these wider interests too.
    The Study Circle has a geographically widespread membership. There are now members in many countries.
    The Study Circle's magazine (called "238") and the Secretary's Newsletter is sent to members on a six-monthly basis. A well stocked library allows books about the Faroes to be available for loan by post. The Study Circle also operates an exchange packet scheme (within the UK only) and postal auctions. Meetings are arranged when opportunity permits. Regional meetings - as well as individual contacts for members living within relatively close proximity - are encouraged. Visits to the Faroes were arranged by the Study Circle in 1993 and 1996.
    The Study Circle has an organising committee. All committee members are elected by the membership and serve for two-year periods.
