I am teaching in South Korea so I am going to be here for awhile. I am in a small town that does not speak English. Already check out the services last week and it is all in Korean... I don't understand it. I was wondering if you would continue to go to church in Korean or watch the mass online. I am Catholic by the way.
take your bible with you and in the back are the readings for the day. you can also go on line for a daily missal. you may not understand the language but theconsecrationn is the same :)
So Hot Seattle Korean Catholic Church 12/14/08
A rather strange question, i must admit, but there is a story behind.
I have seen many descriptions how an US citizen can marry a Korean, but how do things change when both parties are out of these two countries? To add a bit spice there, we are talking about two persons of different nationalities and from different Christian churches (Catholic and Protestant).
Now, I know this should be possible in Seychelles, but how about when we take the scene to a country that is not among the usual marriage destinations.
Hahaha,
Your situation is EXACTLY like my friends'
They somehow just loved Korea so much decided to get married there when they were a Norweigian and a Hungarian.
Do not worry.
It's fine, you can do it.
Of course, you need to arrange it like normal marriages (find preacher, musicians, locations, etc.)
If you have never seen a Catholic Mass, yu can see the Mass that Pope Benedict celebrated in Nationals Stadium at http://www.uspapalvisit.org/video_audio. htm
I was most impressed by the variety of cultures represented at the Mass. During the Prayers of the Faithful, prayers in six different languages - English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean, Phillipino, and South Africa - were prayed.
Anyone who says there are no blacks in the Catholic church should watch this video.
sorry for my mistake - Filllipino, it is
I see many people who have not bothered to see a Catholic Mass. They have prejudged based on it being Catholic. Such PREJUDICED people.
Liturgical Xianity and the churches that house it have considerable fascination for me. I have toured cathedrals in Moscow and Prague and seen (what seemed to me because I had never been in a Christian Church before) highly theatrical spectacles of religion and art. Music, clouds of incense, pageantry, and audience participation (up, down, process, recess!!) which I found thrilling at the time.
Architecture and music have always been major interests in my life, so the mass was right up my alley.

Does anyone know all or how ever many, of the names of churches in San Francisco, CA? (besides Catholic)
Mostly i'm looking for answers of Chinese American or Korean American churches. Thanks!
They'd be listed in the phone book under denomination.
You might find them with a Google or Yahoo search.
i have a problem and having trouble figuring this out. my boyfriend is adopted (born korean) by a white family and is catholic. his family goes to church every sat. and they invited me to go. the thing is that my parents are asian and buddhist and it's different and me and my brothers don't really practice a religion, so it's really a choice for us. when i first went to church with them, it was really uncomfortable and out of place. my b/f wants me to go b/c it makes him happy but at the same time i don't want to go b/c of feeling out of place and that it's more of a family thing for them. they said that it's up to me if i want to go and not force me. so i have a choice of me going b/c to make someone else happy but not me or not go and feel bad for my b/f and his family. idk what to do and it's a hard decision.
It sounds like they are not pressuring you to go, and you don't want to go... it's ok not to go.
But, you might also consider whether there's anything that would help you feel more comfortable there. Would it be easier to go if...
- they explained what was happening in each part of the service?
- you didn't feel obligated to say prayers that didn't resonate with your values?
I'm Jewish/agnostic. and my partner is Episcopalian. I go with him and his kids sometimes to their church if I'm there on a Sunday. I sit and stand in respect when others do but I don't say any prayers that don't ring true to me. I also don't go up for communion. I view it as an interesting way to learn more about his beliefs, background, and culture. The minister is very welcoming to outsiders.

bCatholic/b American Eyes in Korea: bKorean Catholic Church/b and Leadership
Some years ago I heard a lecture by one of our diocesan priests mentioning how a pastor asked the pastoral council to look into a problem and see what they could do to solve it. Nothing was done, months later he brought the issue up again, telling them it will cost a great deal of money if we do not solve it quickly, still no interest. A year or so later, I have forgotten all the facts, he told the council that he received word that they had to proceed with the project and the cost was a substantial amount of money. The priest mentioned that it was an expensive lesson for the Church to learn but he thought it was worth it. Here was someone who was leading from the rear. His hope was to educate the council and it was expensive. Some would consider this foolishness. I was surprised to...
bCatholic/b American Eyes in Korea
"Breaking off dialogue with traditional religions and the Protestant Church was an aspect of the Korean Catholic Church's history during the colonial period. At that time it was only through religion that one could organize or form solidarity with others. It was the most convenient way for Koreans to get together because the colonial officials banned Koreans from forming civil associations. Religious leaders, speaking out in solidarity with the people, influenced public opinion." "The Catholic Church, isolating itself from other religions and refusing relations with them, even further restricted Catholic influence in Korean society. For example, the Catholic Church was the only major religion not represented in the March 1st Independence Movement leadership which was the most important Korean...
