WHAT CSW IS DOING TO HELP CUBA

- In addition to travels into Cuba for research and fact-finding, CSW maintains a number of contacts in the region, and regularly receives updates on those who are incarcerated.

- CSW will continue to research and reveal claims of persecution so as to advocate on behalf of those who are suffering, in addition to networking with other organizations whose focus is on serving the Christians in this region. 

- Christians in Cuba will continue to be mentioned in our prayer calendar. As we receive updates we will publish them on our website and/or in future issues of Outcry.

You can PETITION

You could write a polite letter to the Cuban government, asking that they consider the human rights of those who are prisoners of conscience in Cuba. Know that due to poor US relations with Cuba, your letter may or may not receive interest. Also, be certain not to criticize the Cuban government, Castro or Socialism in your letter, so that it has the best chance of being acknowledged.
