Christianity is the main religion in the Seychelles and each year the islands celebrate the Feast of the Assumption of Mary. Events take place throughout the region but among the biggest celebrations are those at the church of La Digue. Seychellois from Mahe and Praslin flock to the smallest of the three main islands for this important religious festival to offer prayer and thanks in honor of the Virgin Mary.
