Our Lady of Kibeho XI - Final

Our Lady of Kibeho in indeed Our Lady of Sorrows as depicted above.

Prayer to Our Lady of Kibeho


Blessed Virgin Mary, Mother of the Word,Mother of all those who believe in Himand who welcome Him into their life,we are here before you to contemplate You.We believe that you are amongst us,like a mother in the midst of her children,even though we do not see You with our bodily eyes.
We bless You, the Sure Way that leads us to Jesus the Saviour,for all the favours which You endlessly pour out upon us,especially, that, in your meekness, You were gracious enoughto appear miraculously in Kibeho, just when our world needed it most.
Grant us always the light and the strength necessary to accept,with all seriousness, Your call to us to be converted,to repent, and to live according to your Son’s Gospel.Teach us how to pray with sincerity,and to love one another as He loved us,so that, just as You have requested,we may always be beautiful flowersdiffusing their pleasant fragrance everywhere and upon everyone.
Holy Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows,teach us to understand the value of the cross in our lives,so that whatever is still lacking to the sufferings of Christwe may fill up in our own bodies for His mystical Body,which is the Church.
And, when our pilgrimage on this earth comes to an end,may we live eternally with You in the kingdom of Heaven.
Amen+
