A documented episcopal advocation
The Episcopal Conference of Korea records About Us, Queen of Peace, as patron of Dongtan- Songdong. The same fact sheet confirms the diocese, the direction and the date of foundation.
The record documents a parish advocation. It does not attribute private apparitions or messages to the place, and this page keeps that difference.
A parish founded in 2020
The community was erected 16 June 2020. His birth coincided with a year of isolation, health uncertainty and restrictions that deeply affected community life around the world.
The source does not describe how these circumstances lived locally; therefore no episodes are invented. The date, however, recalls the value of rebuilding closeness and mutual support.
Queen according to service measure
Mary is called Queen for her union with Jesus Christ. His royalty does not imitate the power that dominates: he participates in the kingdom of whom he washes his feet and gives his life.
In Cana, Mary perceives a need and leads the servants to Jesus. His maternal authority is expressed in care, intercession and trust.
Peace is learned
A peaceful coexistence does not automatically appear when building new houses. It needs meeting spaces, listening and shared responsibility.
The parish can help neighbors of different backgrounds stop being unknown, especially older alone, newly arrived families and people with economic difficulties.
Truth, justice and forgiveness
Christian peace is not about hiding the conflict. It demands to recognize the damage, protect those who can suffer again and seek fair reparation.
Forgiveness frees itself from the desire for revenge, but it does not force violence or remove necessary limits. Reconciliation requires truth and security.
Families after isolation
The consequences of isolation can remain a long time: loneliness, anxiety, mourning and weakened relationships. A community founded in 2020 can maintain a special sensitivity to these wounds.
Under the Queen of Peace, listening without judging and guiding to professional help when necessary are part of pastoral care.
Reconciliation for Korea
Pope Francis recalled in Seoul that unity is God's gift and human task. The division of the peninsula continues to affect families and to feed fears.
Songdong's prayer can embrace those who live on both sides and those who hold paths of dialogue respectful of human dignity.
Peace with creation
New neighborhoods also need to learn responsible coexistence with the environment. Reducing waste, caring for water and protecting common spaces are concrete forms of peace.
Environmental degradation often falls on those with less resources. Ecological justice and social justice cannot be separated.

To visit and pray
The Rosary can be prayed for families suffering from solitude, health professionals, victims of violence and reconciliation in Korea. The hours should be confirmed directly before they come.
Songdong is a parish dedicated to the Queen of Peace, not a place of apparitions. The visit must respect the cult and the local community.
Prayer to Mary Queen of Peace of Dongtan- Songdong
Mary, Queen of Peace, guards the parish of Dongtan- Songdong and the families of Hwaseong. Sana the wounds of solitude, gather the neighbors and teach us to protect those who suffer. Make us builders of truth, justice and mercy; intercede for the reconciliation of Korea and bring us Jesus Christ, our peace. Amen.
