About this place
Gugwoo Catholic Church is a parish of the Archdiocese of Daegu, serving the liturgical and community life of Catholics in the Guam-dong area of Buk-gu, Daegu. Its patron is Our Lady of Lourdes, and the official archdiocesan parish directory confirms its present name, affiliation, and address.
As a parish, Gugwoo Catholic Church is a local unit of the Church in which Mass and the sacraments are accompanied by catechesis for newcomers, faith formation for different age groups, and lay activities. Although it has a name similar to nearby Guam Catholic Church and both are in the Guam-dong area, the Archdiocese of Daegu lists them as two separate parishes. Visitors should therefore understand Gugwoo as an independent parish community.
History & origins
Gugwoo Parish was established on January 30, 2002. The official Archdiocese of Daegu parish directory gives this date, and archdiocesan records of parish foundations show that a number of new parishes were being constituted around the same period. Gugwoo began as one of the communities formed during this phase of archdiocesan expansion.
After its establishment, Gugwoo continued as an independent parish with sacramental, catechetical, and community pastoral life. Archdiocesan records also document celebrations such as Confirmation with members of the episcopal leadership, showing the parish's continuing development from a newly established community into a settled local parish.
The official sources reviewed do not provide enough evidence for a detailed account of church construction or relocation, so those points are not inferred. The verified historical core is the establishment of the parish in 2002 and the continuity of parish ministry thereafter.
