The Cuban known on social media as La Milbita shared a video on TikTok in which she shows her visit to a church dedicated to Our Lady of Charity of El Cobre, the patroness of Cuba and one of the most venerated religious figures by Cubans both on the island and abroad.
In the video posted on her account @yosoylamilbita_official, the content creator shares that she decided to visit the temple to express her gratitude for the blessings she has received and to present a bouquet of flowers to the Virgin.
"Today I went to the church of Our Lady of Charity of El Cobre, my mother," she comments while showing the beautiful bouquet of flowers she bought to offer as a gesture of gratitude.
The young woman also explained that, although she is currently not in Cuba, the material was recorded during one of her visits to the island and is part of several videos that she will be releasing gradually on her social media.
During the tour inside the temple, La Milbita shared that visiting churches is one of the traditions she tries to maintain every time she travels to Cuba, as she feels peace and happiness when she goes to these places.
"Whenever I come to Cuba, I go to church. It's one of the things I do and never stop doing for anything," he said.
The influencer also confessed that one of her dreams is to visit the National Shrine of Our Lady of Charity of El Cobre, located in Santiago de Cuba, one of the main religious pilgrimage sites in the country.
According to her explanation, despite being Cuban, she has never traveled to the eastern region of the island, so she hopes to fulfill that desire in the future.
The Virgin of Charity of El Cobre, popularly known as Cachita, has been regarded as the patroness of Cuba since 1916 and represents a symbol of faith, identity, and hope for many Cubans both within and outside the country.
The video has generated numerous reactions on TikTok, where followers have shared messages of faith and devotion toward the patroness of Cubans.
