Message, 25. March 2021

“Dear Children! Also today I am with you to tell you: Little children, who prays does not fear the future and does not lose hope. You are chosen to carry joy and peace, because you are mine. I have come here with the name 'Queen of Peace' because the devil wants peacelessness and war, he wants to fill your heart with fear of the future - but the future is God's. That is why, be humble and pray, and surrender everything into the hands of the Most High Who created you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Easter message of Fr. Marinko Sakota, the parish priest of Medjugorje

02.04.2021

Our Resurrection begins when we start to recognise God in man and when we decide to love and to forgive. Before Resurrection takes place, our selfishness and pride need to die within us. When love conquers within us, love ready to serve life, then the Resurrection will take place.

Easter message of Fr. Miljenko Šteko, OFM, the Provincial of Herzegovina Franciscan Province

02.04.2021

The apostles were going to meet the whole Christ only after the Resurrection when Jesus appeared to them as the Risen Lord with the wounds he got on Good Friday, when He appeared completely, giving them at the same time the Holy Spirit that would introduce them to the whole truth of all the words He said during His earthly life. Only then the apostles and all other disciples got to know that Messiah had to go through passion and death first to obtain His glory.

The seventh Lenten reflection by Fr. Ante Vuckovic, OFM – The Guilt of the Sin Taken Away

01.04.2021

''It is about the encounter with the Risen One, allowing Him to take away the guilt of the sin, trust Him, forgive others, said Fr. Ante Vučković, speaking about our everyday lives and encounters with people ''who place bondages of guilt on one another, we can feel as the life is really in bondages there, as those people are enslaved''.

Mother of God – the best pastoral theologian

Max Domej from Gebetsktion Wien spoke to Cardinal Christoph Schonborn, Archbishop of Vienna, during his visit to Međugorje.
Both in Lourdes and Fatima the events first ceased and than Church had its decision about that. Its final decision. Sooner or later that will take place here as well, but in this case we let Mother of God with freedom of choice...I think that Medjugorje can continue well on their journey, with full trust that Church, Mother and Teacher, in this case, is going to continue to monitor their journey.
