The Roman Catholic Church in Swaziland is part of the worldwide Roman Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope and curia in Rome. There are approximately 60,000 Catholics in Swaziland - around 5% of the total population. The country forms a single diocese - the Diocese of Manzini. The Roman Catholic Diocese of Manzini (Latin: Manzinien(sis)) is a diocese located in the city of Manzini in Swaziland in the Ecclesiastical province of Johannesburg in South Africa. The Vicariate Apostolic of Natal was a Roman Catholic missionary, quasi-diocesan jurisdiction in South Africa. The history of the Catholic Church in South Africa goes back to 1660, when a French bishop and a few priests were saved from the wreck of the Marichal near the Cape of Good Hope. They were only allowed to land, not to minister to the few Catholics who were already in Cape Town. Only in 1803 a Catholic priest was permitted to say Mass in the Cape Colony.
