This has happened and is happening at the explicit desire of Our Lady to establish groups. It is difficult to find out the exact number, but there are already thousands of prayer groups. 2 Septemba 2005 , 10:33 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Medjugorje.ws news / Author: Marek Gayer Announcement of opening the website « Our Lady of Medjugorje »![]() Dear friends of Medjugorje, Today I open a multilingual website « Our Lady of Medjugorje », which contain pages about Medjugorje including Apparitions, Visionaries, News & Articles about Medjugorje and spiritual life, the Medjugorje Novena, Photo Gallery, Links to top Medjugorje websites.

Best regards, Marek Gayer, 27 Agosti 2005 , 11:24 , Originally published 30 Oktoba 2004 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Charitable projects, Interviews Interview: The MacFarlane-Barrow Family![]() It is very helpful to be members of a praying community. The family life is under a lot of pressure. Children are bombarded all the time by messages from the media that are contrary to what our faith is teaching us. I see more and more the importance of living in a community with likeminded people. Perhaps especially at the time when children don’t want to listen to their parents, they are able to get the same message form the people that they respect within the community. Prayer is the key. 20 Agosti 2005 , Originally published Mei, 2004 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Visionaries, Marija Pavlovic-Lunetti / Author: Marija Pavlovic Lunetti Witness by Marija Pavlovic-Lunetti - Given 24 March 2004 at Corpus Christi Basilica, Manchester![]() Marija: Many young people decide to spend their nights in discotheques, on their Saturday nights for example, but we decided to spend this time with Jesus. And we think we received much more joy than they do. And if I could go back in time and again have to decide which of the two, in going to the discotheque or going to be with Jesus for the whole night, I would choose again to be with Jesus. 10 Agosti 2005 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Medjugorje in the Catholic Church Declaration of the Ex-Yugoslavia Bishops' Conference on Medjugorje![]() The latest declaration on Medjugorje from the Catholic Bishops of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia is a classic example of the centuries old practice of authentic ecclesiastical prudence. It demonstrates that the Church respects facts above all, that it carefully measures its competence and that in all matters it is mostly concerned for the spiritual welfare of the faithful. 10 Agosti 2005 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Medjugorje in the Catholic Church Ten years since the Zadar Declaration![]() (1991-2001)Ten years have passed since the Bishops’ Conference of former Yugoslavia published its Declaration on the events of Medjugorje. The Declaration was preceded and prepared by long and painstaking work of several Commissions: two diocesan Commissions and a Commission of the Bishops’ Conference of former Yugoslavia had worked for seven years. Based on these studies, the Bishops’ Conference, published the following Declaration at its meeting in Zadar on April 11, 1991: 2 Agosti 2005 , 20:55 , Originally published 10 Novemba 2001 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Theology reports, Medjugorje in the Catholic Church / Author: Dr. fra Ivan Dugandzic, OFM Medjugorje and the New Evangelisation![]() Medjugorje, in other words, that which is understood when the name of that small parish in Herzegovina is mentioned today, has already for seventeen-years a long and stormy, but above all, an unpredictable history. Because who seventeen years ago could have anticipated that the claim of the children to have seen Our Lady would reach to the furthermost parts of the world, and that the parish of Medjugorje would grow into one of the most distinctive shrines and develop such a dynamic spiritual movement before which no one can any longer remain indifferent. 2 Agosti 2005 , 19:18 , Originally published 10 Novemba 2001 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Theology reports, Priests of Medjugorje / Author: Dr. Fra Slavko Barbarić, OFM Anthropological-Biblical and Religious-Spiritual Dimensions of a Pilgrimage, as they Apply Specifically to Medjugorje![]() Pilgrimages are known in all religions. They are an expression of a person who searches for God in places where He has revealed Himself in a special way; where He has offered persons the possibility to feel His presence more easily or with particularly gifted persons, who - through their gifts - have become a special sign of God's presence. This is why there are places of pilgrimage which attract people and where they come in their search to experience God in a new manner, that is, to experience peace, joy, love and hope. With each pilgrimage, a person leaves behind his everyday life, his work, his family, his friends, his security and - longing for a new encounter with God - starts on his journey to places and to people who have proven themselves as "gifted", so as to help him in his new experience with God. 27 Julai 2005 , 19:22 , Originally published 23 Mei 2003 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews Interview – Dominique Delforge-Struyf, Psychiatrist: “Faith is Trust, I Have Chosen Trust”![]() Dominique Delforge-Struyf: I could never be a psychotherapist as I am today without prayer. What Medjugorje brought to me – concerning my work – is the possibility to listen to people while uniting my intelligence and my heart. Prayer really makes it possible to me to create this link, and also not to allow people to eat me up, to overdo, to become ill in this work, which is wonderful, but extremely hard. When I have the occasion to come to Medjugorje, I also seek this atmosphere of prayer that allows me each time to find a new motivation to pray for my patients and to fast for them. 27 Julai 2005 , 17:41 , Originally published 22 Oktoba 2001 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews Interview with “Totus Tuus” groupOther languages: English, Hrvatski
![]() Leon Dolenec: We do not watch television, we do not play with the computer, we do not go for useless parties; we are occupied with Jesus and Mary. We have about 100 collaborators. We also have a circle of friends who help us in different ways, a few thousands of them. 27 Julai 2005 , 16:47 , Originally published 11 Desemba 2001 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews Interview: Rita Falsetto, Fr. Slavko Barbarić’s Co-worker Over the Many Years![]() Rita Falsetto: I would just like to encourage people to come to Medjugorje, to open up their hearts, to God’s Love, to Our Lady. Even though they may feel that they are not worthy enough, that they are in problems… I wish to thank everybody here in Medjugorje and throughout this country for giving me the time and the chance to share in a part of this wonderful country and this wonderful place. And don’t give up on God, because he will never give up on you! Thank you. 27 Julai 2005 , 16:04 , Originally published 4 Oktoba 2002 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews, Medjugorje in the Catholic Church Interview: Msgr. George Hamilton Pearce, Retired Archbishop of the Fiji Islands, on a Visit to Medjugorje![]() We see that there is much tension in the world. America has felt the violence of the terrorism. How much America today can listen to the message of Peace and work on a just peace in the whole world?I think that we have not got the message yet. There was a great turn to the Lord right after September 11th, but we need more then that, I think, before that country really turns to the Lord. So we just pray for that day, we hope we will turn to the Lord before we have to learn too many lessons, but this is also an act of the mercy of God. Everything is an act of the mercy of God. We know very well that God in his merciful love, in his permissive Providence, will take all the means possible that none of the least of his children will be totally lost. That’s all that really matters. 27 Julai 2005 , 15:53 , Originally published 1 Novemba 2003 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews, Medjugorje in the Catholic Church Interview: Msgr. Thomas L. Dupre, Bishop of Springfield (Massachusetts, USA)Other languages: English, Hrvatski
![]() Sometimes God does not answer our prayers the way we want him to answer, but that is a part of being a Christian too: learning to carry the cross. Every one of us has a cross to carry. Maybe it is God’s will that we carry our cross. We have to be willing to accept that. That is all a part of the will of God. What we need to do and to know when we come to places like this is that we come and surrender to God; we accept His will whatever it may be. Even if our own personal requests are not granted in the way that we expect, nevertheless we are blessed if our faith is deepened, if we grow in our love for God and for his Mother. 27 Julai 2005 , 15:31 , Originally published 7 Agosti 2004 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews Melinda Dumitrescu, violinist - Interview![]() Melinda Dumitrescu: I was studying music in Germany, at the Music Academy in Lübeck, where Brahms and others were also studying. I heard about Medjugorje, I read a book with Our Lady’s messages. Ever since my childhood, I was successful in music. I was – as people say – a Wunderkind, but success was not sufficient to fill my heart. I was always seeking something else. I was traveling a lot, and I was always asking myself: where do I really belong, where is my family? I was traveling because of my studies and because of the concerts. I was all the time leaving behind me people whom I loved. While reading the messages of Medjugorje, I felt that - here - I could find what my heart was seeking. | | ![]() | |
