Research in 2018 suggested that Protestants represent 11-13% of the population of Chile.[1][2] Figures in 2022 note that Protestants represented 2.5% of Chilean people in 2022.[3]
Protestants first arrived in Chile in 1812, when missionaries from the British and Foreign Bible Society travelled the country on foot.[4]
In 1848, the first Anglican Church was established in Valparaíso. This was three years after the arrival of the American Congregationalist (later, Presbyterian) missionary David Trumbull.[5] Lutheran German immigrants arrived at the same time. Later members of the Anglican, Presbyterian, Seventh-day Adventists, Methodist, Pentecostal, and other Protestant Churches also came to Chile.
The first Seventh-Day Adventist missionaries first arrived in 1895.[6] There are estimated to be 126,814 Adventists in Chile.
Changes in the Constitution in 1925 led to numbers of citizens falling away from the Catholic Church and becoming Protestants.[7]
