Cuba: A Need for Bibles Now!
Right now, the Church in Cuba stands at a crossroads. A spiritual revival is sweeping across the island - hearts are opening, faith is growing, and lives are being transformed. But there’s one urgent problem: there aren’t enough Bibles to meet the demand.
Imagine discovering the hope and truth of God’s Word for the very first time - only to find there’s no Bible available for you to read. That’s the heartbreaking reality for countless believers in Cuba today.
A Cry for Hope
Luz Marina, a devoted leader in Cuba’s church community, recently received a shipment of Bibles through the Bible Society. Holding them tightly, her eyes shone with joy as cried out, “I know exactly where I am going today!” She knew who would receive the first Bible - a young girl in her congregation whose family is eager to know Christ.
Luz has seen firsthand the power of Scripture: “Children in our church come from difficult backgrounds. But when they hear the Bible stories, they are changed.” For these children, God’s Word is a light in the darkness - a source of hope and healing.
The need is vast - and it is urgent.
Families, children, and entire congregations are waiting. Without a Bible, the spiritual growth of these believers is stunted.
Just imagine playing your part in their transformation by ensuring that every one of them has access to the Scriptures.
Currently Bibles cannot be printed in Cuba and can only be imported via the Cuban Bible Society which is why your support is crucial.

Life-Changing Impact
Every Bible sent to Cuba carries the hope of a new beginning. For many, this is the first Bible they have ever held in their hands - a long-awaited treasure. As Alain Montano, the General Secretary of the Bible Society in Cuba, shares: “In Cuba, people ask for the Bible even in the streets and restaurants. They are longing for something that will bring hope into their lives.”
Take Daili Govas Matos, who as a child dreamed of the Bible. Today, as a church leader in Havana, she is part of spreading the Word of God to those around her. “I understand now why I had those dreams as a child. God is calling me to be part of spreading His Word in my neighbourhood,” she says with a glowing heart. Daili’s dream is now a reality - and with your help, more dreams can be fulfilled.

The situation in Cuba is dire. Inflation, emigration, and poverty are tearing apart families. But in the midst of these struggles, the Church is growing, and people are searching for meaning. They are turning to the Church for hope, but the Church needs Bibles - and they need them now. The Bible is already making a difference. Families across Cuba are receiving vital packages that include Bibles for adults, children, and even large print editions for the elderly. Yet, the need is still far greater than the supply. Each Bible is a beacon of light to a family in crisis. Can you help?
You can provide a Bible to a family in Cuba - a Bible that will be cherished and passed along for generations. Every Bible you provide will reach the hands of someone whose life can be changed forever. Will you be a part of this urgent mission?
Never before has Cuba faced such hardship - but never before has the Church had such an opportunity to share the Bible. With your support, we can ensure that the light of Christ shines brightly across the island.
Thank you for your compassion and your commitment to sharing the Bible.
