Our Lady of Kibeho

Description

By Immaculee Ilibagiza

Thirteen years before the bloody 1994 genocide that swept across Rwanda and left more than a million people dead, the Virgin Mary and Jesus Christ appeared to eight young people in the remote village of Kibeho. Through these visionaries, they warned of the looming holocaust, which they assured could be averted if Rwandans opened their hearts to God’s love. Much like at Fátima and Lourdes, the messengers of Kibeho were first mocked and disbelieved. But miracle after miracle eventually brought tens of thousands to Kibeho. For years onlookers watched as Mary and Jesus spoke through the seers about God’s love, sending messages they meant not only for Rwandans, but the world. 240 pages. Paperback.
