About
St. Mary's Pine Forest Village, a serene retreat house under the Catholic Archdiocese of Daegu, was initially established as a haven for the sick and those seeking spiritual retreats. However, it is now open to all, regardless of their reason for visiting. A mass is celebrated at eleven every morning in the church, welcoming both Catholics and non-Catholics alike. Visitors who are not of the Catholic faith are also encouraged to explore the church, or enjoy a peaceful stroll through the surrounding pine forest. The village comprises several facilities, including the Pine Forest Church, the Way of the Cross, a restaurant, a café, and the Yedam Gallery, which is located within the café.
