About this place
Howon-dong Catholic Church is the district-head parish of District 3 of the Diocese of Uijeongbu, located at 167 Hoam-ro in Uijeongbu. It was established on September 24, 1996, and is dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary.

History & origins
Howon-dong Parish was established on September 24, 1996. Its first pastor arrived on October 10, and the first Mass after establishment was celebrated on October 13. A temporary steel-frame tent church was prepared later that month for the new community.
Approval for a new church was obtained in 1997, with groundbreaking in August and entry into the building in December. A larger church project began in 2010; the community entered the new church in 2011, and Bishop Peter Lee Ki-heon dedicated it on March 18, 2012.
