Protestantism in Costa Rica

A study made by the University of Costa Rica in 2021 showed that 19% of the population were Evangelical Christians and 1% were Traditional Protestants.[1]

In Latin America most Protestants are called Evangelicos. There are different Protestant denominations that are active there, mostly Evangelical, Pentecostal, Lutheran, Baptist, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Adventist and the Costa Rican Evangelical Presbyterian Church. The country is also 47% Catholic.

The first Seventh-day Adventist missionaries arrived in 1903, and the Adventist church currently had 55,680 members in the country in 2001.[2][3]
