The Catholic Church in Fiji is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope in Rome.
Demographics and organization
There are approximately 80,000 Catholics in Fiji, just under 10% of the total population. The whole of the country forms a single archdiocese, the Archdiocese of Suva. The 1996 census revealed just over 75 percent of Catholics to be indigenous Fijians and 5 percent Indo-Fijians, with minority communities making up the balance. The present leader of the Roman Catholic Church in Fiji is Archbishop Peter Loy Chong.
