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, Mary and Jesus warned
of the looming holocaust, which (they assured) could be averted if
Rwandans opened their hearts to God and embraced His love.
Mary also sent messages to government and church leaders to
instruct them how to end the ethnic hatred simmering in their
country. She warned them that Rwanda would become "a river of
blood"--a land of unspeakable carnage--if the hatred of the people
was not quickly quelled by love. Some leaders listened, but very
few believed. The prophetic and apocalyptic warnings tragically
came true during 100 horrifying days of savage bloodletting and
mass murder.
Much like what happened at similar sites such as Fatima and
Lourdes, the messengers of Kibeho were at first mocked and
disbelieved. But as miracle after miracle occurred in the tiny
village, tens of thousands of Rwandans journeyed to Kibeho to
behold the apparitions. After the genocide, and two decades of
rigorous investigation, Our Lady of Kibeho became the first and
only Vatican-approved Marian (related to the Virgin Mary) site in
all of Africa. But the story still remained largely unknown.
Now, however, Immaculee Ilibagiza has changed all that. She has
made many pilgrimages to Kibeho, both before and after the
holocaust, has personally witnessed true miracles, and has spoken
with a number of the visionaries themselves. What she has
discovered will deeply touch your heart
Immaculee Ilibagiza grew up in a country she loved, surrounded by a
family that she cherished. But in 1994 her idyllic world was ripped
apart as Rwanda descended into bloody holocaust. Immaculee's family
was brutally murdered during a killing spree that lasted three
months and claimed the lives of nearly a million Rwandans.
Incredibly, Immaculee survived the slaughter. For 91 days, she and
seven other women huddled silently together in the cramped bathroom
of a local pastor while hundreds of machete-wielding killers hunted
for them. The triumphant story of this remarkable young woman's
journey through the darkness of genocide will inspire anyone whose
life has been touched by fear, suffering and loss. Following the
transformation of her life in the ten year's since Left to Tell's
first publication, this new edition of her bestselling memoir
reflects on her spiritual transformation since those dark days.

that Immaculee discovered the power of prayer, eventually shedding
her fear of death and forging a profound and lasting relationship
with God. She emerged from her bathroom hideout having discovered
the meaning of truly unconditional love--a love so strong she was
able seek out and forgive her family's killers. The triumphant
story of this remarkable young woman's journey through the darkness
of genocide will inspire anyone whose life has been touched by
fear, suffering, and loss.
