Riassunto

Korean American Catholics are celebrating their jubilee after having been officially recognized by the Archdiocese of San Francisco in 1966. This occasion affords the flourishing Korean American Catholic community to take stock of their identity, celebrate this milestone, and prepare for the future. What does it mean to be a Korean American Catholic? What are their particular challenges and hopes? The works contained in this book, articles written by leading Korean American scholars, theologians, and priests, serve to answer those questions and pose new ones, and lay down a marker that will surely one day be recognized as another significant one in the history of this growing voice in the United States religious landscape.

As a theologian of culture, Simon C. Kim addresses cultural and generational needs of the faithful across the country. His latest publication, A World Church in Our Backyard, illustrates the development of ethnic faith groups in recent decades, pioneering the way theological reflection is being done today. Francis Daeshin Kim works with Korean American Catholics throughout Southern California. Having lived in England prior to immigrating to the United States provides him with a unique perspective of integrating culture and faith.
