The Korean Christian Federation is a state-controlled Protestant body of North Korea that was founded in 1946. The institution today comprises twelve thousand North Korean Christians, and acts as an inter-denominational organization by playing an important liaison role between the government and the Christians. It is one of only three official Protestant bodies recognized in the country.
