| This is a list category that is to be used by editors of encyclopedic articles to group similar content articles. This category is part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. If applicable, place this category declaration at the bottom of the article that is to become a member of this category.
This content category includes all articles and subcategories related to Chicago religious organizations. These include organizations that are either formally or informally organized, chartered, or have headquarters in Chicago, Illinois as a religious organization having local, national, or international social, welfare, or denominational purposes.
Do not include articles or subcategories related to places of worship (e.g., Holy Name Cathedral, Chicago) - these are outside of the scope for this category. Articles about a place of worship whose name is also recognized with the congregation, and the article has substantial information about the congregation, may be included in this category and should also be placed into a category related to places of worship within Chicago (e.g., Anshe Sholom B'nai Israel). |
