History of Our Lady Aparecida in Brazil

Its history began in 1717, when three fishermen, João, Felipe and Domingos were in charge of bringing fish to the banquet that would be offered to the governor of the Province of São Paulo and Minas Gerais, and they were not succeeding in this mission.

Afraid of returning to the village without the fish, they prayed to the mother of Jesus. After the prayer, when throwing the net in an attempt to get the fish, they fished part of a holy image and then threw the net again and fished the part of the saint’s head, which fit perfectly forming the image of Our Lady. By putting the two parts together, the fishermen cast their nets and caught the most fish of their entire lives.

After the episode of the fishermen and the image, all the residents of the region began to devote themselves to his image, and to attribute the power we know today to the prayer of Our Lady of Aparecida.

All this devotion resulted in the inauguration of the first church in honor of Our Lady. It was built in 1745, became known as “Mãe Aparecida” and is located in Morro dos Coqueiros, the current center of the city of Aparecida. This church was renovated and expanded until it reached the sanctuary we know today.
