Order of St BenedictPusanOSBFounded 1993 810-1 Baekrok-ri |
There has been an Anglican community in Seoul for many years, but it was the wish of Bishop Bundo Kim to establish a community in Pusan - in the south of Korea. Thus it was that in 1993, the Order of St Benedict was founded in Pusan City. In four years, sufficient money was raised by the Diocese to buy a more spacious, rural accommodation in Yangsan (to the north of Pusan), offering more room for retreats, and for community and parish work. In answer to our prayers, Sister Lucy joined us on 11 September 2001. this has anabled us to enlarge our sphere of service, but we are still praying for new members.
