This essay was originally published in Southward Ho! The Society of the Sacred Heart Enters "Lands of the Spanish Sea" (Society of the Sacred Heart, United States Province, St. Louis, Missouri, 2003). It chronicles the first foundation made by RSCJ from the United States. The Society arrived in Cuba in 1858; exactly one hundred years later, at the time of Castro’s revolution, the religious departed along with thousands of other refugees. In 1977 a small community returned, and since then there have been several new vocations. It is offered here as part of our reflection on the missionary heritage of our U.S. province.
