Marian devotion
Our Lady of Fatima in Mozambique
Maputo, Mozambique
The devotion to Fatima was brought by the Portuguese colonizers.

In Maputo, the Cathedral of Our Lady of Conception is the center of Marian devotion. The Mozambican faithful venerate the Virgin of Fatima as the patron of the nation.
Tradition tells that during the Mozambican civil war, Catholics prayed the Rosary to the Virgin of Fatima and the Virgin protected Christian communities from destruction.
