About this place
진해해군 성당 is a Navy-affiliated parish of the Military Ordinariate of Korea, serving the Catholic faith life of military personnel. It is currently located at 경상남도 창원시 진해구 충무로 29-1 (현동) 천주교 진해해군 성당, and its patronal dedication is Saint Andrew Kim Tae-gon.
In keeping with the Military Ordinariate’s pastoral mission, the parish supports faith life in the military through Mass, the sacraments, catechesis, counseling, and related ministry. Because access and schedules can depend on military-site conditions, visitors should confirm current Mass times and access arrangements with the parish before going.
History & origins
진해해군 성당 traces its beginning to April 5, 1951, when Father Kim Dong-han celebrated its first Mass. Before it had a dedicated Catholic church, Protestants and Catholics shared a church space on the naval base. A Catholic church was built at the present site on December 15, 1982. Because that building had deteriorated, it was demolished in November 2010 and replaced; the new church was completed and celebrated with Mass presided over by Bishop Yoo Soo-il on December 15, 2011.
