Evangelicalism is on the rise in Spain, with the number of evangelical places of worship having increased by 96 over the last year, according to newly released statistics.

New data on worship places released by the Observatory of Religious Pluralism in Spain, reveals that evangelical Christianity has more places of worship than any other minority faith group, with 4,455, up from 4,359 in 2023.

Roman Catholicism remains the comfortable frontrunner with almost 23,000 worship places, but there are more than twice as many evangelical churches as there are mosques.
