About this place
Seongju Catholic Church is a parish of the Archdiocese of Daegu in Seongju-eup, Seongju County, North Gyeongsang Province. Its patron is Saint Joseph, and it serves local Catholics through Mass, the sacraments, catechesis, and community life. The archdiocesan parish directory also lists the Wolhang mission station under Seongju Parish, showing that the parish serves as a pastoral center connecting the main town with Catholics in nearby rural areas.
With many decades of continuous parish life, Seongju is an established center of the Catholic community in the county. The relationship between the parish church and its mission station illustrates how a town parish can sustain the faith of communities spread across the surrounding countryside.
History & origins
Seongju Parish was established in the Archdiocese of Daegu on March 19, 1950. The date coincides with the feast of Saint Joseph, who is also the parish patron, and the official archdiocesan directory records both the founding date and the patron.
The parish continued as a center of Catholic life in Seongju County. In 2020 a Mass of thanksgiving and Confirmation were celebrated for the seventieth anniversary of the parish’s establishment, commemorating seven decades of a community founded in the year the Korean War began.
The current archdiocesan directory lists the Wolhang mission station as belonging to Seongju Parish. This structure shows that the parish’s history has developed not only around its church in Seongju-eup but also through pastoral links with Catholic communities in the surrounding rural area.
