In Havana's darkness, Cubans turn to faith (USA Today)

Father Ariel Suárez Jáuregui, a parish priest in Havana and an official for the Cuban bishops' conference, says the current situation in Cuba is the most difficult and saddest period he has experienced.

According to a report by USA Today, the priest noted a growing deterioration in all aspects of national life in recent months. He attributed these challenges to the ongoing U.S. oil embargo.
