About this place
The community of the Sisters of the Blessed Korean Martyrs in Simgok-dong, Seo-gu, Incheon is the “Incheon Kang Wan-suk Columba Convent,” belonging to the Daejeon Province. The official directory of the Catholic Church in Korea confirms this name and address and lists it as a community distinct from the congregation's other houses in Incheon. It should therefore be understood not simply as a reference to the congregation as a whole, but as a specific religious community maintained in Incheon by the Daejeon Province.
The Sisters of the Blessed Korean Martyrs is a Korean-founded congregation established by Father Andrew Bang Yu-ryong to follow the faith and spirituality of the Korean martyrs. This convent is one community that continues that martyr spirituality and common religious life in the Incheon area. Public official sources provide mainly the community's official name and affiliation rather than detailed descriptions of its apostolate or visitor programs, so it is appropriate not to attribute the wider works of the congregation to this particular house without further evidence.
