El Salvador: People Trust Evangelicals | 10th Mar 2010

admin — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 20:30:27 +0000

Two recent university surveys, carried out between June and October 2009, show that the Evangelical Church in the Central American Republic of El Salvador has almost doubled its membership in the last 11 years – 38% of the population now consider themselves to be Evangelical Christians.
The proportion of those professing no faith has actually fallen by 13% in the same period. One of the surveys indicated that the Evangelical Church was the most trusted institution in the Country, and that it has a positive influence not only on the religious life of the nation but also in society, politics and the economy.
This is an extraordinary witness to the grace of God among His people, and gives the growing Evangelical Church enormous opportunities and responsibilities.
