Why the shrine was built at Museve
A quiet hill for prayer
The place is ideal and quiet. It stands on a hill and has a very good setting for prayer, given by God.
Close to Kitui town
Museve is accessible to many parishes in our Diocese, since it is only 7 kilometres from Kitui town and at the centre of all the other parishes.
A point of reference for our faith
This will be a symbolic and historic place for our faithful in Kitui Diocese, and it will become a point of reference for our faith.
Space for big celebrations
It will provide a place with ample space for big diocesan celebrations.
Graces through Mary
It will bring many graces to our Diocese through the intercession of Mary, our caring Mother.
Importance of the shrine
- The Shrine will strengthen the faith and bring together the people of Kitui, since they will have regular opportunities to visit the shrine and pray for their needs and the needs of our country.
- Since our Diocese is under the patronage of Our Lady of Africa, it will help all the faithful of the Diocese to become more Marian.
- It will provide an adequate setting for the first contemplative sisters’ monastery.
- It will meet the great yearning of our people to channel their devotion to Mary and materialize their recourse to her: “We fly to your protection, Oh holy Mother of God…”
- It will attract more people from other dioceses and, in return, strengthen the relationship between our Diocese and the other dioceses.
