About this place
Uiheung Mission Station is a Catholic mission station in Uiheung-myeon, Gunwi County, Daegu, currently under Gunwi Parish of the Archdiocese of Daegu. Both the Archdiocese of Daegu's official Gunwi parish directory and the Catholic Directory of Korea identify Uiheung as an active mission station at the same location given in the package. It is not an independent parish but a local Catholic community functioning within the pastoral care of Gunwi Parish.
In a district such as Uiheung, some distance from the parish church, a mission station provides an important nearby place where Catholics can gather for prayer and sustain community ties. Arrangements for Mass and the sacraments may vary according to the mother parish, so visitors should confirm them through Gunwi Parish rather than relying on fixed schedules. The present significance of Uiheung lies less in independent jurisdiction or elaborate facilities than in its role as a small local community that allows Catholics to continue their faith while remaining connected to the mother parish.
