Korean Martyrs Catholic Church in Doraville was established in 1992, initially starting as a community of Korean Catholics who gathered for Mass at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Atlanta and later at St. Thomas More Church in Decatur. In response to the growing Korean Catholic population, the church was founded to provide a space for worship in their native language and cultural context. Over the decades, the parish has grown to serve 350 families, offering numerous ministries and support groups while also providing volunteer opportunities for its youth. The church has been a central point for the Korean Catholic community, particularly after events like the 2021 Atlanta Spa shootings, where it played a role in community healing and prayer.<ref name="kmccga_home">Welcome | 애틀랜타 한국 순교자 천주교회 - kmccga.com.
