Marjun is a priest in Klaksvík and the western parish district. As a priest, she travels widely throughout the region, and what brings her the most fulfillment is meeting people from all walks of life. Beyond delivering the message and sharing the church’s history, it is the human connections that hold the deepest significance for her.
In her free time, Marjun loves hiking – whether it's across flat plains or more rugged terrain. She has personally hiked every mountain peak in the Faroe Islands, and as a result, she knows the Norðoyar region from fjord to summit.
Historically, Faroese people walked long distances between villages to attend church, and priests sailed between the islands to preach. Marjun enjoys walking these ancient paths. Visiting churches and strolling along village streets gives her a profound sense of connection, where the history and culture of the land breathe life into her soul.
Marjun believes that life is like a pilgrimage – a journey through diverse landscapes and changing weather. There are peaks and valleys, times of struggle and times of triumph. Traveling is beautiful, and it is essential to have God with you through it all.
