| Summary: | This article analyzes the complex religious situation resulting from the introduction of the pietistic mission to Senja and Vesterålen in Northern Norway. It focuses on the interactions and confrontation between the missionaries, the ecclesiastical representatives, and the Sámi population. Earlier, I examined various perspectives of the Danish-Norwegian missionary efforts among the Sámi population in the so-called sixth missionary district of Senja and Vesterålen.2 Here, I will sum up the results from these studies and elaborate on some themes and perspectives.
