Who they are
The Ume Saami are an indigenous community originating from northern Scandinavia, historically connected to the banks of the Ume River in Sweden. Integrated into contemporary society, they retain a rich heritage of respect for the land and connection with Arctic nature. Although the majority profess traditional Christianity, many yearn for an authentic spiritual renewal that expresses their faith vibrantly within their own culture.
