Haemi
The following link was provided in my church bulletin yesterday: www.haemi.or.kr.
Haemi is sacred ground for Catholics. Three thousand Catholics were martyred there in the 19th Century, a century in which Korea gave about 10,000 martyrs to the Church Triumphant. Of these, 103, the Martyrs of Korea, have been canonized as saints of the Universal Church, including their leader, the patron of this blog, Saint Andrew Kim Taegon.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
