About this place

Cheonan Guryong-dong Parish belongs to the Cheonan Eastern District of the Catholic Diocese of Daejeon. It is the local Catholic community in which the faithful of the Guryong-dong area of southeastern Cheonan gather for Mass, the sacraments, faith formation, and parish life. The Catholic Church Directory in Korea records that the parish was established on 23 January 2008 and has St. Paul as its patron.

As a relatively recent parish, it has the character of an independent pastoral center formed amid the development of residential areas and the growth of Catholic communities in southeastern Cheonan. The church today is a place for regular liturgy and sacramental life, as well as formation, small-community gatherings, and parish organizations, serving the everyday faith life of Catholics within the Cheonan Eastern District.

History & origins

Cheonan Guryong-dong Parish was established as a parish of the Catholic Diocese of Daejeon on 23 January 2008. It belongs to the later stage of the gradual subdivision of the Catholic community of Cheonan into local parishes. The Catholic Church Directory in Korea confirms the foundation date, its place in the Cheonan Eastern District, and its patronage under St. Paul as the basic verified framework of the parish's history.

The currently available official sources do not provide enough detail to establish with confidence the mother parish, an early temporary chapel, or the construction history of the present church. Accordingly, this account does not add unverified dates or persons, and treats the parish's establishment in 2008 as the secure starting point. Since then, Guryong-dong Parish has become established within the Cheonan Eastern District and has continued to serve the liturgical and pastoral life of local Catholics.
