 Black Catholics: Worldwide Count  

Worldwide Count of Black Catholics (continued)

At the dawn of the Third Millennium, the year 2000 A. D., there will be 200 million Catholics of African descent throughout the world.  The count is based on millions and fractions of a million. Though there are more Catholics of African descent than in the various nations listed, the number would be under a half million; that is 0.5 million.
