Guatemala
Historically
Guatemala was a predominantly Catholic country, but over the last 30 years
Pentecostalism has thrived. Visionary 1996 peace accords that engaged religious
actors offered the promise of progress after decades of war. However,
persistent social inequality, environmental degradation, institutional
instability, and high levels of violence present important challenges. Religious
institutions are a vital part of Guatemala’s polity, society, and economy and
thus of prospects for peace and development.
