Jeungpyeong Church

About this place

Jeungpyeong Catholic Church is a parish of the Jungbu District in the Diocese of Cheongju and serves as a pastoral center for the liturgical and sacramental life of Catholics in Jeungpyeong-eup and nearby areas. The official diocesan listing names Mary under the title Queen of Martyrs as the parish patron, and the current diocesan liturgical information also places Cheongan and Sari mission stations within the Jeungpyeong Parish schedule, confirming their pastoral connection with the parish.

The role of Jeungpyeong Parish extends beyond liturgy within the parish church. It provides a center through which smaller Catholic communities in surrounding rural areas remain connected with the diocese and continue Mass, the sacraments, and faith formation. With a long local Catholic history and several mission communities linked to it, Jeungpyeong Catholic Church is a pastoral hub connecting Catholic communities across Jeungpyeong County and neighboring living areas, and a place that visibly carries the continuity of local Catholic life.
