The U.S. Virgin Islands, a group of Caribbean islands, are known for their beaches, Carnival, and a blend of African, European, and Caribbean cultures. Virgin Islanders value family, music, and a tradition of storytelling. Protestant faiths, especially Methodist, Baptist, and Moravian, are most common, but Roman Catholic and Episcopalian churches are also present. Spiritual life is visible in church gatherings, gospel music, and the lively Carnival celebrations.
