About this place

Mungyeong Emmaus Joy Retreat House is a retreat and prayer house operated by the Catholic Diocese of Andong in Mungyeong-eup. It appears under the same name in both the Catholic directory of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Korea and the Diocese of Andong’s list of retreat and educational facilities, making clear that it is not a parish church but a diocesan place where Catholics can step away from ordinary routines for prayer and spiritual reflection.

A Catholic Times guide to retreats describes examples of programs held here that, depending on the schedule, combined pilgrimage to nearby shrines, meditation, lectures, and praise. Together with the presence of martyr shrines and historic Catholic villages around Mungyeong, this makes the retreat house a spiritual place where quiet prayer and pilgrimage through the region can be connected.
