This is breaking the 20 years rule, but for Koreans, churches are the cornerstone of Korean community in United States. Its where Koreans go to meet other Koreans, share news and information, and make friends. Churches also organize senior center for Koreans, so for older generation who dont speak a word of English and had to leave behind family members and friends, religious institutions are their sole outlet. Churches also offer sunday schools and Korean schools, so for second generation Korean Americans, are exposed to their language. Furthermore, churches also organize traditional Korean holiday gatherings. So for most Koreans who recently immigrated, Churches become their sole resource for community.
