Gathered together in the province of Santiago de Cuba 

We: Christian leaders of various denominations, members of the Alliance of Christians of Cuba, meeting together in an expression of unity, respect and love for our Lord Jesus Christ, to strengthen the work of God in the Cuban nation with an emphasis on the establishment of God’s justice, commit ourselves: 

To develop and maintain fellowship based in mutual respect and collaboration to help, heal, and edify our churches, communities, and nation from a basis of faith in the importance of family life, the inherent value and rights of all human beings, the respect for rule of law, appreciation for education, learning, the promotion of social justice, and the help  for those in need, which form part of the foundation of Christian humanism.  

For this, through communion and unity, we will promote justice, truth, righteousness, and freedom of conscience of our rights as Cuban citizens.  

We commit ourselves to work for the healing of wounds in our damaged nation, divided by a failed social project which continues to strip its citizens of their dignity as human beings. We will strive to create an atmosphere of mutual understanding, respect and compassion between Cubans on the island and in the diaspora. 

We work and will work to advocate for more political economic, religious and social freedoms so that all Cubans can live in dignity and self-determination.  

We make it clear that as Christians and the church of Jesus Christ and as Cuban citizens we bless and honour the nation of Israel and we condemn, wholeheartedly, the acts of terrorism committed against that nation. 

We ask the authorities of the Cuban nation: 

For the liberation of all those imprisoned for exercising their inherent rights. 

That each religious movement on the island might exercise its right to associate, obtaining legal status and protection under the law. 

That they respect the right of each Cuban citizen to exercise all their inherent rights and that they do not persecute them for this. 

Brothers and sisters around the world, we ask, pray for the Cuban nation. 

God bless everyone. 

Long live Christ the King.
