Church Description
Established in 1968, Korean United Church of Philadelphia (KUCP) is a historic Korean church in the city of Philadelphia. In the summer of 2023, Reverend Daniel Kwon was installed as the seventh senior pastor. Unlike the typical senior pastor of Korean churches in America, Reverend Kwon is a second-generation Korean-American leading a congregation that includes first-generation immigrants, second-generation Korean Americans, and people of different walks of life. It is an exciting time of rebuilding the church, and we look forward to working with someone who wants to partner with us in the future of the Korean American church.
