Christianity in San Antonio

Christian Communities

In 2016, The Pew Forum ranked Texas as the 11th most religious state in the United States. In 2020, PRRI (Public Religion Research Institute) broke down the United States' religion demographics county-by-county. While Bexar County, where San Antonio is located, did receive a relatively high "Religious Diversity Score" (0.803), it remains dominately Christian among those who are religious (21% are religiously unaffiliated, a.k.a. "Nones"):  

  • 10% white Evangelical Christian 
  • 9% white Mainline Protestant Christian 
  • 7% white Catholic Christian
  • 1% Mormon Christian 
  • 5% Black Protestant Christian 
  • 13% Hispanic Protestant Christian 
  • 25% Hispanic Catholic 
  • Christian 5% other types of Christian   


Compare this to:  

  • 1% Jewish 
  • 1% Muslim 
  • >1% Buddhist; Hindu; et al.   


For this reason, we won't be able to out together the same brief history of Christianity that you'll find on our pages for other religions in San Antonio but you'll find far more pictures and data about the various Christian communities here (see the pictures below) and also on the blog, you'll find many posts featuring local communities. Whenever a post has been featured on the blog, you'll see a link to that post appear below.

Featured Churches

Since approximately 75% of San Antonians identify as Christian, we'll have to highlight individual churches through our blog. As we do this, the posts will be linked below:
