According to several articles listed online, Red Skelton and his then wife Georgia, were active Protestants. No other specific denomination is listed.
In 1957, Red's nine year old son Richard was diagnosed with leukemia and given about a year to live. Red and Georgia decided to have the highest known "Christian" leader of that day, Pope Pius XII, grant a blessing upon him. This was controversial in it's day but the Skeltons did not flinch even after they received much negative press because of their decision.
Here are two quotes attributed to Red Skelton:
"God's children and their happiness are my reasons for being."
"I want the thousands of people who have written us that they prayed for Richard during his illness to have faith that God will answer their prayers."
