The Roman Catholic Church was reintroduced after the French conquest, when the Diocese of Algiers was established in 1838. The several Roman Catholic missions established in Algeria were concerned with charitable and relief work; the establishment of schools, workshops, and infirmaries; and the training of staff for the new establishments. Some of the missionaries of these organizations remained in the country after independence, working among the poorer segments of the population. During French colonial rule, the Catholic population of Algeria peaked at over one million, but most of these left following Algeria's independence in 1962. In the early 1980s, the Roman Catholic population numbered about 45,000, most of whom were foreigners or Algerians who had married French or Italians. <ref> Wikipedia contributors, "Religion in Algeria", in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia,'' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Algeria, accessed 15 March 2020.</ref><ref> Wikipedia contributors, "Catholic Church in Algeria", in ''Wikipedia: the Free Encyclopedia,'' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_Church__in_Algeria, accessed 15 March 2020. </ref> | The Roman Catholic Church was reintroduced after the French conquest, when the Diocese of Algiers was established in 1838.
