According to the registration data in the Information Office, groups from France, Hungary, Germany, Austria, Portugal, Italy, Canada, the United States and Croatia were in Medjugorje in the recent days. Benedetta del Gobbo, 18 years old girl, came from Rome with her family: „This is my 16th time to be here, I am coming as my family comes here on the regular pilgrimages and I feel here as I am at home. We all feel strongly Our Lady’s presence here. Medjugorje is also a school for me, as each time we come here, we learn how to grow with Her and that is so important for all of us. Young people today are not seeking for God, they seek for happiness in the wrong things, they search for something all the time, night and day, search for parties, entertainment and they are only filling their emptiness with another form of emptiness. This only brings them away from the important things in their lives and they no longer know how to respond to this in the proper way”, shared with us this young pilgrim.
