Channel Islands, Christianity in the. Christianity was apparently introduced about the 5th–6th cent. After the separation of England and Normandy in 1204, the islands were annexed politically to England. Ecclesiastically they were finally detached from the diocese of Coutances and annexed to
Winchester on the orders of
Elizabeth I in 1568–9. In the 16th cent.
Huguenot and other Protestant refugees induced the islanders to adopt
Presbyterianism, but Anglicanism was imposed in the reign of
James I and has remained the official creed.
