Marian devotion
Origin and history
"Ko Hāta María, te Matua Wahine or te Atua" - Holy Mary, Mother of God - is the Marian title of New Zealand in Maori. Its official icon, commissioned by the Episcopal Conference and developed on August 15, 2021, presents Mary in blue ocean, with poutama fabric, the koru attached to the flower of lis (Māori and French roots) and a silver fern of twelve points by the Apostles.
Party and devotion
The Mother of God with the face and art of the Maori people. Devotion is a sign of identity of your community.
Link to the Rosary
In the most remote islands of the Pacific, where faith often arrived by sea, the Rosary remains the simple prayer that unites every heart with Mary, from island to island and from generation to generation.
