About this place
The Franciscan community in Seonggeo-eup, Cheonan, is listed by the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Korea as the “Cheonan Blessed Giles Friary / Retreat Center.” It is a house of the Order of Friars Minor (O.F.M.) where the friars’ common religious life is joined to the apostolate of retreats. The directory even lists specific responsibilities for the retreat house, making clear that the site combines Franciscan community life with service to retreatants.
Set in the quiet surroundings of the Seonggeosan area, this community differs in character from an ordinary parish center. It is a place intended to help visitors and retreatants devote themselves to prayer, silence, and reflection on faith, with the friars’ common prayer and fraternal life forming its background. It is therefore more accurate to understand the site as a Franciscan friary and retreat center rather than simply as a parish church.
