She appeared over the waters of Nipe Bay in Cuba, and her message was one of hope for the hopeless. Our Lady of Charity — La Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre — is the patroness of Cuba and a beloved mother to millions. She cures the sick, gives hope where there is despair, and strengthens the afflicted. This beautifully laminated prayer card carries her intercession wherever you go.

The Prayer

Holy Virgin and Lady of Charity, with happiness and humility I come to your feet! Virgin of Miracles! You cure the sick, you give hope where there is despair, you give strength to the afflicted.
