Abstract
Abstract: The main purpose of this study is to assess the spiritual life of Christian communities in Guyana. The study is done among the adults of Christian communities in different places in Guyana. A total of 93 respondents were administered a prepared questionnaire in their official dialects to assess their Christian faith. The data was collected and collated, and the results were compared to the published literature of Guyana and other countries. The interview questionnaire was distributed to men (35) and female (58) respondents. The respondents’ age group ranged from 18 to 70 years. The study attempts were to find out the regularity of their faith practice, the time of choosing their faith, the idea of God, and the reason to believe in God. This study also tries to find out if the respondents have had any change in their lives through the practice of religion. 87.10 % of the respondents recorded that they go to church regularly. 77.42% saw a change in their life with the practice of religion. 76.34% reported praying every day.
