About this place
The Busan Songdo community of the Salesians of Don Bosco is a men's religious community living and working within the Diocese of Busan. The Directory of the Catholic Church in Korea lists the place as “Salesians” and gives its affiliated name as “Busan Songdo Community,” with the English designation Society of St. Francis de Sales: S.D.B. The essential point, therefore, is that this is a base of a religious community rather than an independent parish.
The Salesian congregation was founded in 1859 and entered Korea in 1954. The Busan Songdo community is officially recorded as one local community within the Salesian religious life that has developed in Korea. The significance of the place lies less in a church building itself than in the community of religious who live together and continue the congregation's apostolic life. Visitors should distinguish this religious community from a parish.
