International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church is less than a month away on Nov. 5. Each year on the first Sunday of November, Christians all over the world take time to pray for brothers and sisters in Christ facing severe persecution.
North Korea has been ranked one of the most dangerous places in the world to be a Christian for several years. Still, the underground church is growing, but they’re facing growing persecution. Even owning a Bible or speaking the name of Jesus can result in imprisonment or death. Christ-followers in North Korea need our prayers now more than ever.
