Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Roman Catholic Church in North Korea is part of the worldwide Catholic Church, under the spiritual leadership of the Pope. There are estimated to be only 3,000 Catholics in North Korea today, compared to over 55,000 prior to liberation from Japan in 1945. The practice of Roman Catholicism, as well as other religions in North Korea, is restricted by the Communist Government that runs the country. Changchung Cathedral in Pyongyang is the only Catholic Church in the country. Most Catholics practice their faith at home worship services. The Communist government does not have diplomatic relations with the Vatican, and there are no Catholic clergy permitted in the country.
