The Philippines is one of two predominant Roman Catholic countries in Asia, the other being East Timor. It is composed of several diocese, and archdiocese. More than 90% of the population are Christians. About 80% belong to the Roman Catholic Church while the remaining 10% belong to other Christian denominations, such as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, Seventh Day Adventist, United Church of Christ, Iglesia Ni Cristo, and the Philippine Independent Church.[1]{| ! colspan="5" | Religion in the Philippines |}

About 5% of the population are Muslim, most of whom live in parts of Mindanao, Palawan, and the Sulu Archipelago, an area known as Bangsamoro or the Moro region.[2]Some have migrated into urban, and rural areas in different parts of the country. Most Muslim Filipinos practice Shafi'i, a form of Sunni Islam, while other tribal groups such as the Bajau, practice Animism.[1] Other religions, such as Buddhism, the Bahá'í Faith, Hinduism, Sikhism, Animism, and Athiesm form the remaining 5% of the Philippine population.[3]

Filipino's loves to go to church every Sunday with their family or friends. We as a Filipino also celebrates fiestas which is usually celebrated along with a feast of a Saint. Women, especially old ones used to pray Rosary.

For different location, they also have different religious practices. Like in Quiapo Manila, every year we celebrate Black Nazarene. They will start at Quiapo church then they'll parade it with numerous people who tries to hold to the rope which they said give a blessing.
