About this place
Seongjae Mission Station is a Catholic mission community in Seoho-myeon, Yeongam County, currently belonging to Dokcheon Parish in the Archdiocese of Gwangju. The archdiocese confirms the same 877 Seoho-ro address as the package, its affiliation with Dokcheon Parish, and its pastoral area in Seoho-myeon.
The Catholic Church Directory in Korea records April 21, 1967 as the establishment date of Seongjae Mission Station. The current archdiocesan page leaves the establishment-date field blank, but the matching address and parish affiliation confirm that the sources refer to the same community.
Seongjae is therefore best understood as a local prayer place where Catholics in Seoho-myeon have sustained communal faith since the 1960s. Its role in connecting believers living away from Dokcheon Parish with the wider parish community is central to the meaning of the place.
