“…9 Approximately 1.5 million people of Haitian origin live outside Haitian territory, many of whom have obtained the nationalities of the receiving nation states (Glick Schiller and Fouron 2001: 12). Besides the Haitian community in Montreal there are bigger communities in the USA (450,000 altogether, 150,000 in New York City as well as in Miami, 30,000 in Boston) (Stepick 1998: 5) and 10-15,000 in Paris (Delachet-Guillon 1996).…”

So far religious encounters in migratory settings have been largely examined in relation to the pluralizing of religious cultures, the emerging of syncretisms as well as religious conversions. However, many migrants choose to live more than one religion at the same time and integrate themselves into several religious communities with different and sometimes opposing religious agendas. This article concentrates on the Haitian migrant community in Montreal, Canada. On the basis of the parallelisms between Vodou and Catholicism it first examines the parallels between different religious concepts and performances and second, the significance of particular Vodou spirits which act as mediators between different cultures. The article questions the idea of exclusive belongings and highlights the meaning of space as a differentiating factor in the diversification of religious meanings and messages in multicultural settings.Keywords: Vodou, Haitian diaspora, space, spirit possession, syncretism, religious parallelism
