St. Lucia

Saint Lucia is an island country in the eastern Caribbean located north/northeast of the island of Saint Vincent, north of Trinidad and Tobago. The population is approximately 180,800. The capital and largest city is Castries. Saint Lucia is very mountainous and a volcanic island. Ethnic groups are Black/African descent 85.3 per cent, mixed 10.9 per cent, East Indian 2.2 per cent, other 1.7 per cent. There are two main languages: English (official) and Saint Lucian Creole.

Due to its well-educated workforce Saint Lucia has attracted foreign business and investment and infrastructure improvements: roads, communications, water supply, sewerage, and port facilities. Tourism and offshore banking are Saint Lucia's main sources of revenue. 18% of land is used for agricultural. Bananas are the main product grown, as well as coconuts, cocoa beans, mangoes, avocados, citrus fruits and vegetables.

Saint Lucia is primarily Christian. 14.5 per cent of the population are evangelical Christians. Increasingly materialism influences much of society and undermines spiritual life. Pray for renewal in the churches.
