Mission Trip Cuba?

Question

Is there a program/organization that organizes mission trips to Havana or anywhere in Cuba? If so, is it highly expensive?

Answer 1

The only one I know is run by Arzobispado de la Havana and they mostly go to Miami twice a year (with Cuban government permit) to try and bring medicines for the people with aids and cancer patients. There is a huge organization in Miami which buys these medicines with charity money and gives them all to the Archbishop of Havana when he goes to Miami. I know this for a fact as I have attended Mass in Miami (St. Brendan Church in West Dade) where the cuban Archbishop talked about his mission there and how the money we were giving that day went to buy medicines for aids and cancer patients. They operate alone and I have not heard about Red Cross or Caritas helping there, sorry.
