They organize a procession of the Virgin of Charity for the freedom of Cuba in Miami on the anniversary of July 11th.

Well-known figures of the Cuban exile in Miami participated in the procession.


In an emotional act of faith and solidarity, this Thursday, dozens of devotees gathered in Miami to take part in a procession of the Virgin of Charity of El Cobre, praying for the freedom of Cuba and honoring the third anniversary of the July 11 protests.

Among the public figures who participated in the procession were the influencer Alex Otaola and the activist Rosa María Payá, leader of the organization Cuba Decide.

The participants of the procession, carrying images of the Virgin, white flowers, and lit candles, walked fervently from the Chapel of Charity, offering prayers for the protection of Cubans and the freedom of political prisoners on the island.

The Cuban community in exile came together in a common outcry for the end of the dictatorship and the establishment of a future of peace and prosperity for their nation.

From the Shrine of Charity, a powerful message was issued: "On this day, we reflect on the courage and determination of the Cuban people who rose up against oppression and demanded freedom. The protests on July 11, 2021 marked the largest anti-government demonstrations in Cuba since 1994."

The atmosphere was filled with emotion and hope as the faithful sang hymns and prayed to the Virgin of Charity of El Cobre, asking her to cover Cuba with her mantle and be a source of strength for all those who fight for a better future.

Let us unite in prayer and hope for a brighter future. Together, we can support the struggle for freedom and justice," concluded the message from the religious leaders at the Hermitage.

This act of devotion and unity demonstrates the unbreakable spirit of the Cuban community in Miami, which remains steadfast in its support for the cause of freedom in its homeland, trusting in the protection and guidance of its Holy Patroness, the Virgin of Charity of El Cobre.
