Marian apparition · Kibeho, Rwanda
Our Lady of Kibeho
From 28 November 1981 Mary appeared to students at a girls’ school as ‘Nyina wa Jambo’, Mother of the Word, calling for conversion and prayer; the seers also described terrible visions later understood as a warning of the 1994 genocide. After consulting the Holy See, the bishop of Gikongoro recognised the apparitions to the first three seers on 29 June 2001.
