As medicine develops and sense of hygiene improves, the life expectancy has been longer and the 'aging society' has come. As we never experienced the aging society, there are concerns about the problem that could be caused by the aging society. The main cause of the concern is related to finance. We tend to see the aging society regards to finance; the decrease of labor population and the increase of cost to support seniors. Seniors are treated as an obstacle in the modern IT society where individual competence and new knowledge are valued. Society devalued seniors as the main cause of various social problems and even describes the aging society as 'a national timing bomb' or 'the shadow of disaster'. As a result, seniors are getting isolated and suffer various difficulty. On the contrary, church regards seniors as the blessed creature of God, symbol of wisdom and people to be respected. So, a church accepts aging as a blessing and a big project. Following this, Daegu Archdiocese carries out various pastoral projects for seniors. However, pastoral projects for seniors are far less paid attention comparing with the pastoral projects for the youth. Daegu Archdiocese should make an effort to develop the pastoral projects for seniors. Such effort would be helpful to make a social trend which accepts old age as a blessing and mission, and play a big role to recover the dignity of the seniors. This thesis gives priority to reconfirm the meaning of the old age and its value following the lesson of the catholic church, and seek the ways to recover the dignity of the senior. In addition, this thesis plans to grasp the state of the aging society and the pastoral projects for seniors by Daegu Archdiocese, and suggest substantial guideline to improve and develop the projects. This is the purpose of this thesis. A similar study had been done at the graduate school in Catholic University in 2009. It is the thesis by Chan Young Choi for his graduate degree; The role of the catholic church to activate the pastoral projects for seniors in the aging society - mainly by Archdiocese of Seoul and Uijeongbu. However, the thesis is about the activity in Seoul and Uijeongbu, and a study about the activity in Daegu Archdiocese needs to be done. Therefore, in chapter I this thesis overviews the aging society and the life of the seniors in general. In chapter II this thesis tries to understand the meaning of the old age and its value through bible, documents kept in the church and the catholic church, and confirm the lesson of the catholic church regards to seniors. In chapter III this thesis analyzes the state of the aging society in Daegu Archdiocese and in the ares under its jurisdiction, and examines the state of the pastoral projects for seniors and problems. Finally in chapter IV this thesis finds the purpose of the pastoral projects for seniors to set a correct direction and the goal of the pastoral projects for seniors following the guideline of the projects. This thesis also suggests the ways to improve and activate the pastoral projects for seniors based on Daegu Archdiocese and its parish church.

Public education can be defined as mandated activities that lead a human-being genuine. However, the meaning of public education can be applied to various perspectives based on which site of the essence of education is taken into consideration as the significance of education is composed of diverse sub-concepts. Amongst many concepts of education, the intellectual aspect is particularly emphasised in Korean public educational system. Thus, it is often argued that the educational institution centred on intellectualism may interrupt students to form right values along with the proper ideals to become an eligible social individual. So it is crucial to seek fundamental solutions of public education system to avoid students failing in shaping better characteristics in Korea. It is claimed that the reality of current Korean public education system is severe as it is thought to be facing no internal stability, also a lack of governmental finance support, an increase of early overseas students and a rise of private education and resulted fees. It is generally blamed on the public education system in Korea that is solely university preparatory and that ignores basic purposes of public education such as education for the whole and students’ self-realisation. In the mentioned circumstances, Korean public education is desperately in the need of changes especially on providing equal educational opportunities and also offering even intellectualities to the whole. In order to achieve these goals, it is important to value the process itself rather than the result which would bring better opportunities to shape up stable institutional backups and for students to open up a diverse way to the success and to accept a wide range of different values. In addition, it is also vital to develop and execute the whole-person education programmes that can assist students to respect each individual’s different characteristics and dignities of student. By doing so, the society finally would embrace individual differences not just with the academic achievements and value more on moral attentions and considerations. Therefore, this study proves the positive effects of catholic schools on both sides of education, intellectuality and whole-person which lead students to form community spiritualities in chapter 2. Then it will search the identity and the role of catholic schools based on the church literature to examine the beneficial influences of catholic schools and of both internal and external evangelisation work on bringing students of abilities. Catholic Church aims to enhance students to understand the effectiveness of welfare through catholic schools. It also tries for students to be prepared to proffer services and to be an apostolate role-model who is able to extend God’s world. Catholic Church emphases education not only through catholic schools but also with homes (parents), nations (societies) and churches all together. Church accents on the notion that every party should be a part of forming and developing right values and intellectual abilities of students to bring religiously faithful individuals to the society. In other words, the whole-person education should be delivered based on the Christian spiritualities to shape an individual who can serve a local evangelisation. This is to actualise the identity of catholic schools. The main educational purpose of the catholic schools is to form Christian individuals who have upright characters by focusing on educational efforts and Christian spiritualities. As mentioned this can be accomplished by educational programmes that are designed to build an upright character and self-actualisation and to fulfil right social duties along with the eligible catholic educators who are evangelised. It is believed when the educators to precedently be sincere and faithful in everyday lives of theirs’, schools would be filled with the evangelical spirits such as love and liberality. This is the key notion of catholic churches’ educational policy through the catholic schools. Catholic schools should seek for educational methods through catholic ideals, but it should be well-balanced in accordance with the Korean and church’s law as well as the public educational issues. Thus, in chapter 3 followings are discussed; first, the reality of catholic middle- and high- schools’ educational state, the history and the current conditions of Daegu Archdiocese’s catholic education, focused on the interviews with clergies and religious who are dispatched to catholic middle- and high-schools in Daegu. Statistically, there are 1.5% catholic middle- and high-schools in Korea, there are eight catholic schools in Daegu where happens to be the most schools out of all dioceses followed by the most of faculties and students. Among faculties, 71.2% are catholic believers where students only are 18.2%. This may show the severe needs of both internal and external evangelic missionaries. Schools applied to the research have shown diverse educational programmes by clergies and religious. Schools are to consolidate the existence of themselves along with their identities, whole-person and character shaping programmes which are built with the catholic spiritualities. By doing so, students can form upright personalities and become suitable individuals to evangelized in local communities. In order to accomplish this, it is important all members of a school to have inner catholic values. For example, teachers who seem to spend the most time with students be crucial in terms of shaping students inner completion of evangelization. Thus, clergies and religious who are dispatched to schools have to perform a certain role not only as a missionary but also as an evangelic role model for teachers. However, their efforts do not seem to be enough, every home, nation (society), and church should play it together to actualise and to make students’ dreams come true by establishing a solid identity of catholic schools. These efforts might support the identity establishment of catholic schools are proposed. As mentioned, it is vital for catholic schools’ own attempts as well as the local bishop’s support. Supports from the bishop can lead to a proactive pastoral with fostering trained or specialised priests for school pastorals. This can be flourished with the supports from the associate parties. Catholic Church and schools should priory take care of the poor who have been abandoned from love and supports with a firm plan to educate those students. Students classified with by the law should be selected and provided satisfactory supports both mentally and economically. Also, catholic schools should develop their own teaching methods to enhance the unique features of catholic schools. For instance, programmes like building characters, community spirits, preventative disciplines, reading comprehensions, underachiever cares, career shaping, life respects and so on. As a matter of fact, schools have applied those programmes to their curriculums in Daegu. This should be continuously managed by certain stages of planning, executing, and measuring. Despite the fact that catholic schools cannot completely ignore the Korean educational territories like examinations, schools should find a balance in between by accepting intellectual education for the whole. Consequently, this study suggests “AMOS gospel share” and “community response” programmes from small community program. These Christian gatherings can solve those issues with a perspective of evangelization. In the programmes, students can be taught that other students are companions who we have to love rather than competitors. These efforts are to flourish the humane relationship with the God and to fulfil the love with one other, consequently, to help students to be mature social individuals. In sum, this research suggests right directions for catholic schools to proceed in order to actualise the adequate identity in public education boundaries by giving catholic thoughts and literatures. Secondly, this study examines the current conditions of whole-person education as well as the personality shaping education of catholic middle- and high-school in Daegu such as Daegun and Hyosung Middle Schools and Daegun and Hyosung Girls’ High schools. Lastly, it recommends the efforts to helps students to have Christian spirituality to embrace the evangelization based on the interview with clergies and religious.

성경을 이용한 청소년 교리교육 효율성에 관한 연구 : 2000년 개정된 대구대교구 주일학교 교리교재와 2005년 대구대교구 복음여행 비교분석을 중심으로

(Abstract) Our youth are the leaders of tomorrow, and our catholic church agrees with this opinion. The letter "To every youth in world" from Pope John PaulⅡ said "You have hope, because you are part of the future and the future depends on you." And every society thinks youth education is a very important part of our lives too. We, as members of a society, have created many kinds of education program for youth. The Archbishopric, where is involved with Korea, is trying to develop a variety of youth programs. Unfortunately, the participation rate in Sunday school is decreasing these days. Catechesis needs to be more interesting and fun. We need to understand what happens in Sunday school. Usually Sunday school teachers are University students. They prepare for their class at least 1week in advance and they have class every weekend at anappointed hour. They try to teach by using many kinds of sources but youth do not feel the class is fun or helpful to develop their faith. This problem happens because of Sunday school teachers don't have a background in Theology so this makes it difficult to teach youth catechesis. Another problem is the text book. The text book is one of the most important sources in education. All education is influenced from not only the teacher's skill but also the text book. If the text book is too hard to understand for both the teacher and the students then this will be a serious problem. So the textbook needs to be easy to understand. In the case of catechesis, the text book is a really important source for educating faith to people. It should help individuals understand what it means to be Catholic. Unfortunately in the Catholic Church here Korea's traditional text book follows the Korean cramming system of education so people who want to be baptized or participate in the Catholic education program have to memorize all the Catholic teachings. This system was very effective in 1970s but now it is ineffective. For youth, a story telling system of education is more effective than the cramming system of education. So this study recommends using the bible for youth catechesis. The bible is the basis catechesis with sanctuary. In the bible there is God's teachings, and information about Jesus and the disciples’ lives. The structure of the bible is story telling so this bible will help our youth's faith through understanding Jesus and thedisciples’ lives; moreover, this will help students understand the Catholic teaching more easily. So the purpose of this study is about look at the effect of using the bible in youth catechesis. This study consists of five chapters. In chapter 1, we are going to look at characteristics of the Korean Catholic church's catechesis and how it is concerned with the realities of youth catechesis. Moreover, we will find out about current catechesis from Sunday school teachers (financial affairs and textbook.) We present the solution to reform the text book. In chapter 2, we are going to compare Daegu Archbishopric's Catholic education text book (2000ed) & Daegu Archbishopric's 'Traveling Gospel' based on the views of teachers and students. In chapter 3, we investigate the issue of the text book and present the solution of using the bible for youth Catechesis. Moreover, here we are going to look for examples of other Archbishopric’s youth Catechesis using the Bible. In chapter 4, new teaching skills using the bible are presented, particularly a metaphor in 4 gospels. We will also provide an example form of catechesis for youth. Finally in chapter 5, we are going to look the effectiveness of catholic youth education based on the bible. In conclusion, if youth catechesis uses the bible, it is really helpful for youth to understand the catholic teachings and strengthen their faith. But if teachers just focus on the Gospel, this can create a formal catechesis that does not promote learning and understanding. So when they harmony with both bible and sanctuary then youth catechesis will be more effective.

天主敎 大邱大敎區 信者의 社會福祉 意識 및 活動에 關한 硏究

金己鎭 大邱가톨릭大學校 2002 국내석사

This research seeks to revitalize the social welfare work activities with the Daegu Diocese of Korean Catholic Church. To this end, we surveyed its members' social welfare work awareness and achievement status. We further analyzed the relationship between their faith life and their social welfare awareness and activities. Thus we found out what effect the members' faith life has on their social welfare awareness and activities. Our voluntary sampling polled 589 effective subjects, out of the targeted 600 members, from eleven churches, under the Diocese. The finding revealed that members of the Daegu Diocese lacked in basic awareness for social welfare and in understanding the values that are offered in social welfare science and the social teachings of the Korean Catholic Church. Interestingly, the Diocese's members identified social welfare with charities, and regarded it just as a ceremonial act. The finding showed, they accepted social welfare as their duty, and this positive attitude was influenced by the Church's teaching on 'Practice Love.' Members of the Daegu Diocese also were found to passively participate in volunteer services and other social welfare work. We surveyed what effect the members' faith life had on their social welfare awareness and activities. Their faith life, measured by the baptism period, home faith life and other external factors, had minimal impact on their social welfare awareness and activities. However, their Mass participation, sacrament of penance and other internalized factors of faith life, significantly influenced their social welfare awareness and activities. Although the believers, through their faith life, enhanced their awareness for social welfare, this awareness was not translated into action. Members of Korean Catholic Church at the Daegu Diocese attributed much of their actions stated above to their individual responsibility, but they also attributed it to the churches' lack of social welfare education and of approaches for social welfare work activities. Therefore, to insure the members of the Korean Catholic Church at the Daegu Diocese have an affirmative awareness for social welfare per the teachings of the Bible and teachings of the church, and to insure their participation in specific welfare functions and operations, we must provide social welfare education that is focused on it's value to the members faith life. In addition the Daegu Diocese must also establish it's own Volunteer Service Center. We trust that the results of this research will be of great assistance to the Daegu Diocese of Korean Catholic Church for improving its social welfare work, and will serve as a basis for social welfare education which targets it's church members.

The purpose of this thesis is to study the 'La societe de la Sainte-Enfance' implemented by the Catholic Church in Korea from a historical ecclesiastical perspective. The Korean Catholic Church announced its beginning in 1784 by the voluntary gathering of those who wanted to learn about Christian faith and doctrine. The Korean Church, following the words of Jesus Christ, has regarded the proclamation of the Gospel and the practice of charity towards neighbors as its mission and has continued missionary activities. Despite various difficulties, such as persecution by a government that regarded Catholicism as heterodox teaching, the Korean Church did not cease its Christian mission and carried out various projects for the practice of charity towards suffering neighbors, among which the 'La societe de la Sainte-Enfance' is representative. The 'La societe de la Sainte-Enfance' was an aid organization established in France in 1843 to rescue abandoned children. About ten years later, in 1854, Father J.A. Maistre introduced this to Joseon (Korea). Hence, the 'La societe de la Sainte-Enfance' is considered the country's first modern child welfare project. However, the project aimed not only to aid abandoned children but also to administer baptism to children in danger of death. This indicates that Christian missionary activities for the proclamation of the Gospel were also carried out through the 'La societe de la Sainte-Enfance.' The 'La societe de la Sainte-Enfance' adapted to the times, initially limited by severe government persecution and conducted by entrusting children to devout Christian homes. After the period of persecution, as treaties with Western powers reduced restrictions on missionaries, the Church established Korea's first orphanage to systematically operate the 'La societe de la Sainte-Enfance' and invited the Sisters of Charity of Saint Paul, active throughout France at that time, to manage it. This energized project spread nationwide and became particularly active in the Daegu area. In conclusion, the 'La societe de la Sainte-Enfance' was not merely a child welfare project but an integral part of the Christian missionary activity of the Korean Church. Today, various social welfare institutions operated by the Church for the socially disadvantaged include the practice of charity towards neighbors and missionary activities that convey the word of Christ, fulfilling the Church's mission.

일제의 종교정책과 대구대목구의 대응에 대한 고찰 : 드망즈 주교를 중심으로

박상혁 대구가톨릭대학교 대학원 2011 국내석사

The religious policy in colonial rule of Japan was religion to contribute colonial rule of Choson. The colonial Japan insisted on the separation of religion from education, and began to separate missionaries from education boundaries and regulated mission of Christianity by imposing restrictions directly on their mission. The various regulatory laws on religion were such results. To restrict religion education at school, it promulgated Ordinance of private school laws, Enforcement rule of Private school laws and Revised Private school laws. and to restrict missionary activity, Missionary laws was announced and Shinto ceremonies was forced and promulgated the Religious organization act. Those laws were amended several times later on but the basic system had been persisted during colonial period. This article aims to highlight the response of Daegu Vicariat against colonial Japanʼs religious policy. therefore the time frame of this study is mainly confined to the period Bishop Demange at his post in Daegu Vicariat from 1911 until 1938 of his expiry. In the 1st chapter, it examined the historical situation of the Daegu Vicariat under Colonial rule of Japan. In the 2nd chapter, it deal twith the Chosunʼs separation policy of church between politics and religion and major policy on religion done by Colonial Japan. In the 3rd chapter, there sponse of Daegu Vicariat was examined against religious policy of the Colonial rule of Japan. In the era of 1910-1920 when the Private school laws, Revised private school laws, Missionary laws were introduced, there were difficulties in mission fund or missionary staffs due to recruit of missionaries or decreased or suspended donations of mission fund in connection with Chosun-Japan annexation and the 1st World War. Despite the situation, Bishop Demange reformed the education of theological school through his church letter providing commentaries on the new education act and education system as well as pastoral letter on education while urging establishment of school and education project as a means for evangelization purposes. Regarding Missionary laws, Bishop Demange obtained an approval from coronal government by announcing new laws on missionary through official letter. But on the other hand, the Bishop reported this problem to Minister of Congregatio de Propaganda Fide (Sacred Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith) during Ad limina (regular visit) to Vatican while explaining illegality of the Missionary laws through pastoral letter. Independence Movement, the Bishop took a moderate position not permitting participation based on the principle of separation between politics and religion. In terms of forced shrine visit by coronial Japan, Bishop Demange refused to pay respect to the effects of shrine and had negative feelings to shrine visit but based on the legitimately based on declaration to support the official instruction announced by archbishop Mooney, Ambassador to the Pope, he interpreted the shrine visit to be regarded as royalty to the nation rather than religious ritual. But he also elaborated that Daegu Vicariat people shall be prohibited to make active participation and should behave to the extent to have passive participation and bow only. Upon promulgation of Religious Organization act, it was difficult for Daegu Vicariat to properly respond on it. The Chosun church was completely subjugated by the rule of colonial Japan after outbreak of the Pacific war. National Total Chosun-Federation suppressed the church, prohibited study on official letter from Vicariat and mid-night player of Christmas, forced resignation of foreigner Bishop and missionaries. situation deteriorated to the extent that Justinus theology school was shot-down, and French missionaries were prohibited their activities and detained by the group. As mentioned, the discrete attitude of Bishop Demange affected to other various projects to influence the development of vicariat. If there was no sustained leadership of Bishop for 27 year term, it could be very hard to achieve expansion of church due to desertion of believers caused by Japanese exploitation as well as development of social work. Of course there were mistakes providing indirect cooperation to the Japanese colonial rule to Chosun by Passively joining the peoples movement as not permitting students of Justinus theology school to 3.1 Independence Movement, approval of Shinto ceremonies being contrary to the peopleʼs expectation and taking part of it. However, it is not a fair if evaluation is made to any matter or problem by observing one side only. Looking back past from the present position, and on the basis of reflection, it is desired that such an evaluation should be a milestone for future church. Therefore if we can evaluate fairly showing naked painful past of our church and make a open regret to the public not to repeat such mistake, the mistake of the past shall be a corner stone to pave the way for future. The church announced ?Renewal and Reconciliation? to its past to take first step to ?Renew and Reconcile? the past mistake. In the rapidly changing modern society, such kind of Renewal and Reconciliation should not be limited to one time event in order to spread and testify the Kingdom of God. In fact, In the modern society, the Church has to make regret ceaselessly to the mistake of its own actively in order to spread and testify the Kingdom of God. Under such basis to seek and to follow the Jesus Christ ?one may be able to reach to never extinguishable light through cross of Jesus by relentless self renewal under the sprit of God? The church in the new millennium should create new history. It is easy to make a judgement to the past but creation of it should be a difficult task. Finally, it is hoped to be able to join building the Kingdom of God to understand the sign of thisera through trustful reconciliation and less on of the past history to be with society and people.

가톨릭 이념을 바탕으로 한 가톨릭 의료기관 정립을 위한 연구

유병율 대구가톨릭대학교 2017 국내석사

The Catholic church has cared for and cured the sick since its inception, and is now achieving this through the establishment of various medical institutions. The medical institutions have been always established wherever the church reaches, and have led the sick to unite with the cross of Christ through suffering. Furthermore, by carrying out the love and healing of Christ, they have played a role of communicating Christ to the sick. The Church's medical institutions have achieved both quantitative and qualitative growth to enable more people to receive more health care. This has made a great contribution to the development of the medical business, and they have been taking the head in providing the medical care as the leading medical institutions in each region. However, the Catholic medical institutions, which have been chasing only growth, have gradually lost the idea of Christ, so only growth has remained. It is difficult to find any difference from general medical institutions except the word 'Catholic'. In this paper, aiming for the proper operation of Catholic organizations, we provide Catholic medical institutions their future direction by conducting 'a study on the improvement of Catholic medical institutions on the basis of the Catholic idea' from the viewpoint of medical ethics. First of all, we examine the concept of 'medical ethics' in Chapter I. We highlight the history of modern medical ethics from ancient times and explore the background of the emergence of modern medical ethics. Next, we understand the basic concept and the four principles of medical ethics. In Chapter II, we seek to understand 'Catholic medical institutions'. We will learn about the Christian idea that Catholic medical institutions want to pursue, classify Catholic medical institutions based on the standard for classifying general hospitals (hospital organization, hospital type), briefly review the development process of Catholic medical institutions in Korea, and then understand what Catholic medical institutions want to pursue through the understanding of Catholic Medical Center, which is a representative model. In Chapter Ⅲ, we explore the 'current status of Catholic medical institutions'. We study the internal and external factors that have created the current form of Catholic medical institution, and then examine the model of the resulting Catholic medical institution. And, we diagnose the Catholic medical institutions, which have lost the Catholic idea, through analysis of diverse media from the following two perspectives: "medical institutions closed to the poor" and "Catholic medical institutions for profit". Lastly, in Chapter IV, 'suggestions for the proper operation of Catholic medical institutions' are given. We provide suggestions from educational and pastoral perspectives. And then the models of proper operation of medical institutions including Father Lee Tae-seok, Joseph Clinic, and Daegu Sacred Heart Welfare Clinic. The main text can be largely divided into two parts, Ⅰ・Ⅱ and Ⅲ・Ⅳ. In the first half, we examine the identity of Catholic medical institutions based on the overall understanding of medical ethics. In the latter part, we analyze the current status and issues of Catholic medical institutions and propose alternatives. There are too many things to be given up by Catholic medical institutions to abandon the present form and go back to the beginning to be with the poor. To do that, they will have to endure a lot of pain. However, such sufferings are a way in which the church can be in harmony with the suffering and pain of Jesus Christ. The church can reveal Christ and eventually become hope in the world through this suffering. Going through pain and suffering with the poor is the reason for the church to exist in the world.

한국 가톨릭교회의 생태의식과 실천모델 연구

정홍규 대구가톨릭대학교 대학원 2014 국내박사

For this study, let's look into several signs of times which took place in the last 20 years. Firstly, during the outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease in 2000 and 2002, avian influenza or bird flu in 2004, and BSE (bovine spongiform encephalopathy) and mad cow disease in 2008, it was observed that Korean churches showed an ambiguous attitude to burying groups of animals alive. There is no 'ethical language' for the animals' wellbeing in our church. Secondly, the on-line emergency news has continuously stated that the Catholic priests have held masses to protest against the construction of a naval base at Gangjeong village in Jejudo and that people held united struggles against the construction of the power-transmission towers in Milyang. A few priests have devoted their lives so as not to construct nuclear power plants in Samcheok City and Yeongdeok County. However, it has been observed that some other priests showed opposite attitudes about 'the confrontational situation' of the construction of nuclear power plants in Samcheok City and Yeongdeok County. Especially, thirdly, the episcopate announced its stance about 'Life and 4-Rivers Project' in 2010. However, different opinions from the episcopate have confused believers about what ecological justice is. In the same year, though 'A Guide on the Environment from the Korean Catholic Episcopate' was announced, the guidance didn't become effective on the church scene in the sense of 'ecological education and solidary practice.' Lately, after the nuclear disaster caused by the earthquake in Fukusima, Japan in May, 201I, countries in East Asia, especially Korea, feel scared of food contaminated by radioactivity because of close location from Japan. However, it is difficult to find 'the leadership from the episcopate of Korea and Japan' in order to take a step towards solutions for alternative energy. From the several cases mentioned above, the church does not take 'the ecological responsibility' quickly. In this study, it was discussed about how ecological movements shaped up and were embodied in 1990s, the daybreak of the Catholic movements for the eco-evangelization. By looking for pioneer-activitists who devoted themselves to our sustainable environment, our potential foundation for ecology will be discussed and cases and tasks for the ecological movements will be explored. There have been integrated instruction, ecological heritage and various voices about ecology from Pope John Paul Ⅱ in 1990 to Pope Benedictus XⅥ in 2010 for 20 years. In spite of that, each diocese and each church was not able to incorporate the above instructions into their religious life and did not practice the instructions. This study intends to reflect on the reason why they were not practiced. The 20 years in this study is the same period of the dawn and reclamation period of the Korean Catholic Eco-movement of which I took the initiative. I was in charge of the representative of the Korean National Priests' Environmental Association and the representative of the Korean Priests' National Preservation of Creation Order. I also made several other attempts for ecological evangelization. I developed theology and spirituality to have people realize the importance of farming through direct transactions between farmers and urban buyers and to ground the basic foundation of eco-movements. I demonstrated that church can have an eco-motif to Koreans by the efforts for the conservation of the Dong River and the protest of the construction of 4-Rivers Project. I created a model of an eco-church in Daegu and was evaluated to open up a new horizon of eco-evangelization. I established a nature school and an alternative eco-school for children for a sustainable future and I incorporated new and various ecological thoughts into the curriculum of the school. In this study, it was revealed that our actions without reflection on the past repeat the same trials and errors. If we retranslate the concentrational movements, heritage of the church, and the hands-on experiences for the last 20 years and if we integrate them with modern eco-vision, our church will be able to give shape to our hope for 'the Era of Peace-Ecology' of Pope Benedict XVI. Hopefully, this study will be dedicated to the 'great work' to preserve the Earth and to find a new eco-gospelization model as Thomas Berry already mentioned. In the 21st century, to change from the era of devastation to the era of mutually reciprocal relationships, it is essential to examine the eco-direction of the Catholic church and to create the alternative model for practice. Thus, it will become 'the great work' to open up 'the ecozoic-era' as Thomas Berry said.
