"In North Korea, after the persecutions of the past decades, there is the so-called "Silent Church": a community of people who have not let the flame of the Spirit extinguish, but who do not have the freedom of professing their belief in Christ. It is a Church that suffers, which must be encouraged and gradually awakened, not abandoned."
