The Apparitions of Nyina wa Jambo

A Mother’s Call to Her Children

Between November 28, 1981 and November 28, 1989, the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to three young students at Kibeho College in Rwanda, Africa. These apparitions were officially approved by the Catholic Church on June 29, 2001.

Our Lady identified herself as the “Mother of the Word” and delivered urgent messages calling all humanity to prayer, repentance, conversion of hearts, and reconciliation.

The three visionaries were Alphonsine Mumureke, Nathalie Mukamazimpaka, and Marie Claire Mukangango. Each received distinct messages that together form a powerful call for the entire world.
