Havana, Cuba, Jul 5, 2004 / 22:00 pm
Representatives of various opposition movements gathered together in Old Havana this weekend to pray a special rosary for the release of Cuban political prisoners.
During the event which was promoted by the Rev. Reynaldo Gonte Hidalgo, a Cuban flag was on display as well as pictures of political prisoner Martha Beatriz Roque y de Pelletier.
“Most Holy Mother of God, we pray for comfort for all those who suffer imprisonment, that you protect them and free them,” prayed Rev. Hidalgo.
The rosary was prayed at the independent library “Jesus Yanes Pelletier,” and included the participation of members of various opposition groups in Cuba.
