Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Roman Catholic Church in Liberia is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope and curia in Rome. There around 166,000 Catholics in Liberia - 5.8% of the population. There are 3 dioceses including 1 archdiocese: * Monrovia o Cape Palmas o Gbarnga. At the beginning of the 20th century, the Americo-Liberian settlers were to be found on the sea-coast and at the mouths of the two most important rivers. Of the native tribes the principal are the Veys, the Pessehs, the Barlines, the Bassas, the Kroos, the Frebos, and the Mandingos. Outside of the negroes of American origin not many Liberians were Christians. The converts came chiefly from the Kroos and the Frebos. Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterians, and Episcopalian missions had been established in the country for many years with scant results at the beginning of the 19th century.
