Christianity and Modern Transformation

Christianity has also made significant inroads into Arunachal Pradesh, particularly in the eastern and central parts of the state. Missionary activity began in the 20th century, and many members of tribes such as the Adi, Tangsa, and Wancho have embraced Christianity. Today, churches are present in almost every major town, and Sunday services, Gospel music, and Christmas celebrations are widely observed.

For many, Christianity brought with it education, modern healthcare, and new livelihoods. While some see it as a departure from traditional faiths, others appreciate how it has transformed their lives socially and economically. Importantly, most communities have managed to strike a balance between embracing new religious beliefs while continuing to honor their ancestral customs.
