Grenada Church Directories

Grenada   Archives and Libraries

Church directories list church ministers, dioceses, and parishes. There currently is no annual directory that lists all of the ministers of Churches in Grenada.

It is important to understand the early historical Ecclesiastical makeup of the islands of Grenada since this has a major contributing factor in the society which has subsequently developed there. The islanders have always been predominantly Christian. From the 1891 census we get a snapshot of the population and its religious proclivities - over half were Roman Catholic (55%), a third were Church of England (36%), other listed were Wesleyan (6%) and Presbyterian (0.88%). This differs considerably from that of, say the island of Barbados, which has alway been predominately Protestant (67%) then Anglican (40%) and only a tiny minority are Roman Catholic (4%).
