Hope, Healing, and the Gospel in Cuba
Even in the darkest moments, the light of the Gospel shines brightest. In Cuba—where families navigate daily power outages lasting hours, severe food scarcity, and minimal transportation—God is doing something extraordinary. Amidst these monumental challenges, the faithful pastors we partner with aren’t just enduring; they are boldly advancing the Kingdom. Every update we receive from the field fills our hearts with profound gratitude and reminds us why we started this mission. Here is a glimpse of how your support and God’s grace are actively transforming lives across Cuba today.
Faithful Partners, Fruitful Harvests
It is always deeply encouraging to receive updates from the pastors we partner with in Cuba.
Pastor Luis wrote to us recently with incredible news: his team shared the Gospel with 458 people, and 62 individuals received Christ as their Savior! Alongside sharing the Word, they were able to provide 93 people with food and basic necessities. Like so many of our leaders, Pastor Luis remains steadfastly committed to reaching his community, no matter the obstacles.
Pastor Justo and his wife, Sara, recently celebrated baptizing 10 new believers in their church. Justo and Sara are deeply dedicated to sharing their faith and discipling others. We first met them 10 years ago, shortly after our daughter, Hannah, moved to heaven. Justo has been a true brother in Christ—caring, faithful, and instrumental in helping me connect with and support our network of pastors across Cuba. I rely heavily on his partnership in this work.
Currently, Justo is battling several health issues, exacerbated by the local lack of proper nutrition and medicine. Please join us in praying for Justo and Sara—asking the Lord to bring complete physical healing and renewed strength.
Pastor Rene and his wife, Yarelis—with whom we first launched Hannah’s Toys of Hope—recently hosted an outreach where they distributed toys and school supplies to 77 children. During the event, 24 children received both a tangible gift and the ultimate gift of eternal life by inviting Jesus into their hearts.
Serving Through the Storm
It never ceases to amaze me how our Cuban brothers and sisters serve. Even facing severe daily power outages, limited transportation, and systemic scarcity, they remain unfazed. Instead of shrinking back, they press forward and work even harder to reach lost souls. And we are grateful that through your prayers and generosity, we can stand alongside them.
