Organization mounts campaign to save life of North Korean facing death for Christian Faith


PYONGYANG, North Korea: Son Jong Nam, a Christian in North Korea, has been held in a bleak, North Korean death row basement cell for more than a year. He has been sentenced to die by "public execution." He is charged with being a "national traitor" and "receiving Christianity." Mr. Son has already spent 3 years in prison and has gone through brutal tortures.


Mr. Son's crime? Sharing his faith in the communist nation of North Korea.

Recently The Voice of the Martyrs (VOM) launched a worldwide campaign to free Mr. Son with thousands of letters being written on his behalf. Even Presidential candidate Sam Brownback has joined the efforts to help free Mr. Son.

Mr. Son is just one example of many other Christians who are systematically persecuted in over 40 nations for their faith in Jesus Christ.
