Drawing on anthropological fieldwork, I will utilize a debate taking place within the Haitian Catholic mission in Montreal about the pictorial representation of the Virgin Mary as an example in order to illustrate the interplay between Catholicism and Voodoo. After a short overview of Haitian immigration to Montreal, I will discuss the multiplication of religious fields in the migratory context using the concept of syncretism. This will allow me to show the parallel practice of different religions, as it serves to articulate different issues and needs. In spite of, or perhaps due to these parallels, I observed that considerable efforts are made to clearly mark the differences between the two religions. This will be analysed with regard to class consciousness in the Haitian migrant community in Montreal.
