List of Catholic dioceses in Gambia and Sierra Leone
The Catholic Church in the Gambia and Sierra Leone, two Anglophone (ex-British) West African countries, is composed solely of a Latin hierarchy, comprising :
- one ecclesiastical province, covering all and only Sierra Leone,
comprising the Metropolitan of capital Freetown and three suffragan dioceses. - an exempt diocese (directly dependent on the Holy See) for all the Gambia, with see in its capital Banjul.
There are no Eastern Catholic or pre-diocesan jurisdictions or overlapping ordinariates.
Neither country has a national Episcopal Conference, but they form a joint one for the Gambia and Sierra Leone, which hosts it in Freetown. [1]
There are no titular sees. All defunct jurisdictions are precursors of present sees.
There formally is an Apostolic Nunciature (embassy-level papal diplomatic representation) to Sierra Leone and an Apostolic Nunciature to The Gambia, but both are vested in the Apostolic Nunciature to Liberia (in its capital Monrovia).

gollark: One per thread is likely sort of better ish slightly anyway.
gollark: Nope, this is probably fine.
gollark: I have a threadvar for each thread's DB connection and a function to get it.
