Roman Catholicism in Qatar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Roman Catholic Church in Qatar is part of the worldwide Roman Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope and curia in Rome. There are very few Catholics in this overwhelmingly Islamic country - most are expatriate workers. Qatar forms part of the Apostolic Vicariate of Arabia. The local church has been granted permission to build an ecumenical church. [1]
