Christianity in Sierra Leone

Church and Missionary House in Regent, Sierra Leone (1850)

Christians in Sierra Leone constitute approximately 22.9 percent of the country's population as of 2013.[1] Other sources report that the population of Christians in Sierra Leone may reach 21%.[2] Christianity was brought to Sierra Leone by the Nova Scotian Settlers when they founded the Colony of Sierra Leone in March 1792.

The Constitution provides for freedom of religion, and the Government generally respected this right in practice.[2]

Intermarriage between Muslims and Christians is common.[2] Islam and Christianity are often syncretized with indigenous religious beliefs.[2]
