Extreme Persecution in North Korea: What if You Were Afraid of Your Own Child?
Confronted by the truth of her parents’ secret faith and the truth of the Gospel, Sang-Hwa courageously decided to start her own dangerous journey of faith. She too became a secret believer, joining the incredible underground church in North Korea.
You are helping to sustain believers’, like Sang-Hwa’s, faith and hope despite fierce opposition and great danger. In Sang-Hwa’s own words, “You are helping to give secret believers proof that God’s love is far more powerful than any persecution they are facing.”
As North Korea continues to be the most dangerous place on earth to be a Christian, will you continue to show your love and commitment to our persecuted brothers and sisters with your gifts and prayers?

Persecuted believers like Sang-Hwa and her parents inspire me and challenge me. Every single day, they are choosing Jesus over very real and tangible fears. North Korea is the most repressive regime in the world for Christians. Yet, while our fellow believers could live in fear of those closest to them, they are choosing instead to put their hope in the ultimate hiding place – the shelter and refuge of our great God.
Why is North Korea considered the most repressive regime in the world for Christians (and anyone else for that matter)?
- The State controls everything – even what you’re allowed to think.
- If you don’t agree with the State, you’ll be sent to a horrifying labour camp.
- Everyone is registered into three classes: the core, the wavering, and the hostile classes. Christians are automatically classed as ‘hostile’.
- People are taught to spy on their closest family and friends. North Korean Christians say, “When three people are gathered, one is a spy.”
- Spies have been sent outside the country to kidnap or kill anyone working with refugees, particularly Christians.
