This category requires continual maintenance to avoid becoming too large. Please diffuse articles into relevant subcategories as needed: discuss large-scale changes on the talk page first. If an article exists in both this category and a relevant subcategory, or it simply does not belong, remove its category marker.

This category contains articles about denominations, although not all Christian traditions are comfortable with being termed as denominations, it is nonetheless common usage. For buildings see Category:Churches.
