Korean Catholic Base Communities

As an old man is not agile and not full of life, we (the German Church) need revival and refreshment. By contrast, the Korean Church is young and vibrant and we can learn from it.

So said Archbishop Ludwig Schick of Bamberg, about the South Korean Small Christian Communities (SCC) movement — German delegation learns about SCCs from Korean Church. From what I gather, these SCCs are like the "base communities" of Liberation Theology without the Marxism.
