About this place
Maria Retreat Center is a retreat and prayer house of the Diocese of Busan in Uam-dong, Nam-gu, operated under the responsibility of the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Both the official Catholic directory and the Korean bishops' conference retreat-house guide confirm the same address and responsible religious institute, making its identity clear: it is not a parish church but a specialized spiritual place where individuals, families, and groups come for prayer and retreat.
The generalate of the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary is located at the same address, and the institute's official English name is recorded as “Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (S.I.H.M.).” Maria Retreat Center can therefore be understood as a place that supports retreats and discernment from within the prayer and spirituality of the religious community. Catholic Times retreat guides have also described it as offering arrangements for individual, family, and commissioned group retreats, reinforcing this present role.
