They face even worse abuse if they’re caught with a Bible.
A smuggler as soon as advised us, “If I get caught in North Korea, I shall be despatched to a labor camp. If I get caught with Bibles, I shall be executed.”
And but, many escapees not solely hearken to audio Bibles whereas in our shelters. They take our reward of Bibles with them once they run to their subsequent location – the place they’re most weak to getting caught. They discover immeasurable hope and life in God’s phrase.

Our accomplice, who defected from North Korea years in the past, stated,
“I wish to categorical my gratitude to CFI in your assist. At first, a number of the North Korean defectors didn’t imagine {that a} U.S. group was serving to them.” (North Koreans are indoctrinated to imagine that People despise and wish to destroy them.)
“They saved telling me that I used to be mendacity. And even when it was true, many thought CFI would cease serving to after some time,” he stated.
“However it’s been occurring for a few years. By the grace of God, CFI is doing what others don’t do. CFI has helped us in our time of best hardship. I’m very grateful. We now transcend delivering North Koreans from oppression. We do the whole lot to carry North Korean defectors to Jesus Christ.”
