Dear Visitor,
Another dynamic month that was filled with all kinds of events is behind us. We celebrated School Day, awarded the diplomas to the students, and held a manifestation at the school.
We were also visited by friends from Zagreb, who wrote two interesting articles about their stay in Kivumu, and their experience of Kibeho, the well-known sanctuary, that was the site of Our Lady’s 1981 apparitions to several girls.
Another event once more persuaded us of how important it is to build a secondary school for our parishioners. A student of ours, although he performed brilliantly in the speech-giving contests, was unjustly disqualified. Want to know the reason? Pay a visit to our page and read the news...
I Came Down from Heaven for NothingThe apparitions in Kibeho, too, are very similar to those in Medjugorje, although there are also some differences. In Kibeho, the number of seers gradually increased – first one girl, then two, and then three – while in Medjugorje there were six of them from the very start.

Part of the Tin Man Given to the DisabledWe decided to take that step, because in our parish there are about ten people who are confined to wheelchairs and there’s nothing for them to do. And you have to live from something, so we decided to help them. First we organized machine knitting training for two women who are semi-paralyzed. They had previously opened up a knitting shop...

If you are able, please donate for helping to educate the children at our Center
Rwanda is small country with population of 11 million. Because of this, often there is no opportunity to buy land on which to build a school. And if there is any land available, the price is very high compared with the Rwandan standards. The price for our new school is around 70.000 Euros. We need help to do this and we invite you to donate for our new school. More info...
