Christianity in the Gambia

Christians in the Gambia constitute approximately 8 percent (~136,400) of the country's population (1,705,000 - 2009 est.)
The government did not establish a state religion,〔(International Religious Freedom Report 2007: Gambia ). United States Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (September 14, 2007). ''This article incorporates text from this source, which is in the public domain.''〕 but the predominant religion is Islam, practised by approximately 90% of the country's population. Article 25 of the Constitution protects the rights of citizens to practise any religion that they choose.
The Christian community, situated mostly in the west and south of the country, is predominantly Roman Catholic; there are also several Protestant groups including Anglicans, Methodists, Baptists, Seventh-day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses, and various small evangelical denominations.〔 In 1963 was formed the Gambia Christian Council as an ecumenical association of Roman Catholic, Anglican, and Methodist churches.
Intermarriage between Muslims and Christians is common.〔 In some areas, Islam and Christianity are syncretized with animism.〔
==Roman Catholicism==

(詳細はApostolic Vicariate of Senegambia was established Mission “sui iuris” of Gambia. In 1951 Mission was promoted as the Apostolic Prefecture of Bathurst, in 1957 promoted as Diocese of Bathurst in Gambia (renamed in 1974 as Diocese of Banjul).
Now there are about 42,400 (~2.4%) Catholics in the Gambia. The Diocese of Banjul is divided into 56 parishes.
Bishop Robert Patrick Ellison (b. 12.02.1942, Ireland) is the present Catholic Bishop of the diocese of Banjul.
