I can't see the picture of the church ... Padre Siluan, could you tell me where I could find pictures of the temple? Some of us Cubans (that also happen to be Orthodox Christians) are curious about this new building in Havana City

Maybe, We will see, the new mosaic next year, when Alexy II will visit Cuba and will inaugurate the new Russian cathedral. This way the Russia of Putin comes closer again with their Cuban "tovaritchi" (Comrades). Everything is returning to be like in the Soviet time.

Another interesting thing is that in Cuba there will be two great cathedrals (EP and MP) while there are very few of orthodox there, in the case of MP, just will attend the family of Russian ambassador and few people from Russian Embassy.

Cuba doesn't have more quantity of Orthodox than other countries of Central America, even Mexico has many more orthodox there, however MP or EO have not been as interested in them as them they are in Cuba. This demonstrates that the political interests are political interests... And EP and MP respond to these interests.
