The five largest denominations in Jamaica are: Church of God, Seventh-day Adventist, Baptist, Pentecostal and Anglican. The full list is below. most of the Caribbean is Catholic, Jamaica's Protestantism is a legacy of missionaries that came to the island in the 18th and 19th centuries . Missionaries attempted to convert slaves to varying Protestant denominations of Moravians, Baptists, Methodists, and Presbyterians to name a few. As missionaries worked to convert slaves, African traditions mixed with the religion brought over by Europeans. The Protestant church was associated with black nationalism in Jamaica, aiming to improve the lives of blacks who were governed by a white minority during colonial times. Today, the church plays an important role in society by providing services to people in need. There are also several church operated educational systems including a Seventh-day Adventist one which incorporates Northern Caribbean University. (en)
