Juan Mesa: “Patience is virtue, resilience is victory”

It is faith what convenes innumerable public on September 8th. Dressed in yellow, around the churches, they expect the exit of La Virgen de La Caridad, or our as African descent called her and still call, Oshun. In procession, with the cloudy sky and sun splashing, also Havana people lit candles.
