Anglican Church of Korea - Structure and Leadership

Structure and Leadership

The church was previously under the authority of the Archbishop of Canterbury. To mark independence in 1993, the Archbishop of Canterbury handed his authority as Metropolitan and Primate to the first Archbishop of Korea. The church now forms a single metropolitical province, consisting of three dioceses: Seoul, Busan, and Daejeon. The Bishop of Seoul is also the Archbishop of Korea and Primate of the Church; the current holder of this office is the Most Rev'd Paul Kim.

The House of Bishops of the Anglican Church of Korea:

  • Archbishop of Korea and Bishop of Seoul
  • Bishop of Busan
  • Bishop of Daejeon

Famous quotes containing the words structure and/or leadership:

    “Who says that fictions only and false hair
    Become a verse? Is there in truth no beauty?
    Is all good structure in a winding stair?
    May no lines pass, except they do their duty
    Not to a true, but painted chair?”
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)

    “The liberal wing of the feminist movement may have improved the lives of its middle- and upper-class constituency—indeed, 1992 was the Year of the White Middle Class Woman—but since the leadership of this faction of the feminist movement has singled out black men as the meta-enemy of women, these women represent one of the most serious threats to black male well-being since the Klan.”
    —Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
