In conjunction with the 17th Annual North Korea Freedom Week 2020, organized annually by the North Korea Freedom Coalition (NKFC), this year, the Day of Fasting and Prayer is held on April 28.

 

On the annual event’s website, it says, “While there have been many prayer vigils and services focused on North Korea, we believe that not just prayer — but also fasting — is necessary to combat the evil that reigns over the people of North Korea to appeal to Heaven for their freedom from the Kim family’s tyranny.”

At a time where there is an ongoing speculation about the dictator’s health, prayers and fasting are sought for especially for the people of North Korea, who continue to face COVID-19 pandemic living in an authoritarian state.

NKFC picked April 28 because it is also an important date in the history of the North Korea human rights movement. It is the anniversary of the first North Korea Freedom Day and the middle of the week of the 17th annual North Korea Freedom Week (April 26-May 2, 2020).
