===Eastern Orthodoxy===

Although most [[Laestadian]]s are Lutheran and they are often termed Apostolic Lutherans, it is an interdenominational movement, so some are Eastern Orthodox. Eastern Orthodox Laestadians are known as [[:ru:Ушковайзет|Ushkovayzet]] (article is in Russian).<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://uralistica.com/profiles/blogs/karelskoe-religioznoe |title=Karelian religious movement Uskhovayzet |access-date=March 10, 2019 |archive-date=August 3, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200803182457/http://uralistica.com/profiles/blogs/karelskoe-religioznoe |url-status=live }}</ref> Laestadian charismaticism has been attributed to influences from the shamanistic ecstatic religious practices of the [[Sámi people|Sami]], many who are Laestadians today.

The charismatic movement has not exerted the same influence on the [[Eastern Orthodox Church]] that it has on other mainstream Christian denominations. Although some Eastern Orthodox priests have advanced Charismatic practice in their congregations, the movement is seen as incompatible with Orthodoxy by writers within the church. For instance, an article published in the Journal "Orthodox Tradition" says "There is nothing Orthodox about the charismatic movement. It is incompatible with Orthodoxy, in that it justifies itself only by perverting the message of the Fathers, suggesting that the Church of Christ needs renewal, and indulging in the theological imagery of, Pentecostal cultism."<ref>{{Cite journal |title=The Charismatic Movement and Orthodoxy |url=http://orthodoxinfo.com/inquirers/charmov.aspx |journal=Orthodox Tradition |volume=1 |issue=4&5 |pages=29–32 |access-date=December 4, 2019 |archive-date=November 23, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191123054441/http://orthodoxinfo.com/inquirers/charmov.aspx |url-status=live }}</ref>

Despite this some priests forward Charismatic renewal in the [[Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese]], the Brotherhood of St. Symeon, and other orthodox churches.<ref>{{Cite web |date=July 30, 2013 |title=What is Renewal? |url=https://ocl.org/what-is-renewal/ |access-date=December 4, 2019 |website=Orthodox Christian Laity |archive-date=December 4, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191204113257/https://ocl.org/what-is-renewal/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
