Protestant Gospel Church, Liping

Christianity is a minority religion in the Chinese province of Guizhou. Gha-Mu and A-Hmao are ethnic groups with large share of Christians.[1][2] According to Asia Harvest, estimates from 2020 suggest that of the entire population (34,249,417) about 8.34% is Christian (2,856,965).[3]

Overview[edit]

The Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Guiyang and the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nanlong have their seats in the province. Sam Pollard was a missionary of China Inland Mission, who was active among the A-Hmao.[4] When the new government took power in 1949, Guizhou may have had about 40,000 Protestants.[5] The current Protestant population is at about half a million. [6] Christianity in Dafang and Christianity in Weining, which both mainly consist of Protestants, exceed 100,000.[7] They both are part of Christianity in Bijie.[8] Persecution of Christians occurs in Guizhou.[9]
