Arne Olsson was a Swedish Lutheran bishop. He was the first bishop of the Mission Province, serving from 2005 until 2010.
Olsson was a retired pastor in the Lutheran Church of Sweden, having been e.g. the parish priest of Habo. On 5 February 2005 in Gothenburg, he was consecrated as bishop of The Mission Province by The Most Reverend Walter Obare, the presiding bishop of the Evangelical [Lutheran Church in Kenya]. The Mission Province is theologically conservative and opposes women's ordination and same-sex unions and marriage. Following his consecration, the Church of Sweden disqualified him as a priest. He died on 12 March 2024.
