April 22 (UPI) — North Korean Christians observed Easter Sunday at a Roman Catholic church in the capital, a Pyongyang propaganda service said Monday.
Ryomyong, a North Korea site run by the regime’s national reconciliation council, said Monday Easter Mass took place at Pyongyang’s Changchung Cathedral. The country’s Korean Catholic association’s central committee, North Korean and foreign residents were in attendance, according to the website.
North Korea has consistently ranked as one of the world’s most religiously repressive societies. U. S. nonprofit Open Doors has said the regime ranks number one in the world for religious persecution.
