Father bless!
I’m aware of a GOC-K parish in Cuba and there might be a ROAC parish in Haiti but I’m unaware if it’s operating, maybe our moderator father Mark can give us some insight. The closest synod to the Caribbean would have to be the TOCR (True Orthodox Church in Russia) in Columbia. If anyone else knows of any other synods present in the region I’d love to know!
Unfortunately the ROAC parish in Haiti is long since inactive. When our priest, Fr. Matthew reposed (under... Suspicious circumstances to say the least), they lost the property and we don't know what happened to most of the people there. That was even before the Colorado schism.
Not by much, Gregory of Colorado attempted to rebaptize the Haitians, Fr Michael protested to the Synod, and Metropolitan Valentine confirmed that Gregory was forbidden to do so, which was one of the "charges" that Gregory faxed over to every member of the Synod, at which point Metr Valentine referred to the canons of conspiracy against the Metropolitan. All of that occurred within a year.
