Tabernacle of the Most High, Ngome, Zululand, KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa
Commemorated on August 22, May 1
"Shortly after Holy Communion, Mary stood before me, very close-by. Everything was seen in spirit. I was drawn into another atmosphere. Mary showed Herself in a wonderful light more beautiful than the sun. She was robed all in white, flowing veil from top to toe. Upon Her Breast rested a big Host surrounded by a brilliant corona radiating life. She was a living Monstrance. Mary stood upon the globe, hands and feet invisible. I felt like entering a cloud, drawn by Mary, away from the earth. I had my eyes closed but I saw so much light that, for several days, I was very much dazzled by the beauty and light that I had seen." Mary said, "Call Me 'Tabernacle of The Most High'. You too are such a Tabernacle; believe it. I wish to be called upon by this title for the glory of My Son. I wish that more such Tabernacles be prepared. I mean human hearts. I wish that the altars be surrounded by praying people more frequently. Don't be afraid. Make it known."
So Sister Reinolda May described her experience of August 22, 1955. A Benedictine nun from Germany, Sister Reinolda headed the maternity department of a mission hospital in Nongoma, South Africa. The following March, she received another message from Mary: "I wish that a Shrine be erected for Me in the place where seven springs come together."
In December 1957, when visiting a sick person in Ngome, Sister Reinolda realized that was the place for the shrine. A number of wells were found in the forest near the Benedictine school there. A Munich artist, Joseph Aman, painted the picture according to the instructions given to him by Sr. Reinolda. On May 1, 1963, the painting was taken to Ngome and hung in the school. Urged by Fr. Ignatius Jutz, Bishop Aurelian Bilgeri allowed Bro. Jacob Riedmann to build a tiny chapel at Ngome. Fr. Ignatius Jutz blessed the chapel on Pentecost Sunday, May 29, 1966. The apparitions and shrine became more widely known after the seer's death in 1981. In 1992, Bishop Mansuet Biyase blessed the open-air altar. The Shrine to Mary, Tabernacle of the Most High hosts pilgrimages on the Saturday after the Annunciation (March 25), May 1, Aug. 22, 1st Sat. in Oct., and Dec. 8.
