In January 1998, the Pope's visit to Cuba marked a significant moment for Catholics, ending decades of religious repression by the atheist state. The visit included open-air masses attended by thousands, leaving a lasting impression on many.

The visit's impact continues to be felt, with ongoing discussions about further progress in religious freedom, highlighted by an upcoming visit from a Vatican emissary.
