For more than 60 years, Open Doors USA has worked in the world’s most oppressive and restrictive countries in support of persecuted Christians, among whom are many North Korean Christians.

The ministry says North Korean Christians are in desperate need of prayer, the most requested action in response to persecution.
On Nov. 3 at 5 p.m. PT, David Curry, president and CEO of Open Doors USA, is hosting a webinar to provide the latest persecution updates. He will be joined by South Korean Pastor Min-soo, who will provide firsthand accounts on North Korea.

- Infographic
- Online prayer wall
