During a homily in his Diocese of Guantanamo-Baracoa in Cuba, Bishop Carlos Baladron said “God has given a great Christmas gift” to the faithful of that diocese in the re-inauguration of the Chapel of St. Cecilia, after several years of restoration.

During his homily, the bishop said, “This dream has come true thanks to the generous support of Aid to the Church in Need which, since the creation of this diocese in 1998, has offered assistance to this local church through various evangelization programs.”

“This is a new example of the light of God illuminating us all, despite obstacles along the way and the blindness of heart from which people suffer,” Bishop Baladron stated.

The Chapel of St. Cecilia is located in Guantanamo, in a region devoted to the production of sugar.
