11 October 2025 – North Korea

Sadly North Korean defectors who are Christians are often influenced by cults. Pray that they would be increasingly rooted in the Word of God and established in their faith.

Pray for ‘Mrs GS’, a defector living in South Korea who was previously the head of an underground church network in North Korea. After one of her church members was caught and interrogated by the authorities, she fled in order to avoid arrest.

Pray for ‘Cheol-ju Park’, a young man whose mother and father were sent to a concentration camp after engaging in Christian activities. Cheol-ju and his siblings have grown up without parents and are still trying to make sense of their relationship with the Christian faith.

Please pray for ‘Seo Gyeong-hee’. A member of her underground church network asked her to connect with somebody in another location but, while doing so, she was stopped and interrogated by the authorities. She was released but now lives with the trauma of her experience.
