25 Julai 2005 , Originally published 22 Mei 2004 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews Mons. George Tracy 25 Times in Medjugorje![]() Mons. George Tracy: Medjugorje began to have a great influence when I came here for the first time and it has continued. It has taught me in the depth of my being to live in the Immaculate Heart of Mary along with the Sacred Heart of her Son, which are the two Hearts that are central in my work in the “Cor Christi”. I have developed in my heart a real sense for the teachings of Grignon de Montfort, who is Mary’s child: To put my heart into her heart when I have to get in the Heart of Christ. I want to be Mother Mary’s child. 25 Julai 2005 , 17:50 , Originally published 25 Machi 2003 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews Interview: Sr. Hannah – In Medjugorje, Mary heals our hearts so that we may receive a greater share of the fullness of the grace of GodOther languages: English, Hrvatski
![]() Mary says always again in her messages: Open your hearts! From the psychological point of view, I know that, because of our wounds, we develop mechanisms to defend ourselves. Out of fear, we have built up defence mechanisms that impede us to be able to trust blindly. If a person, as a child, has been rejected by the parents, he/she cannot believe that God will not reject him/her. Or if someone was beaten by the father, it is difficult to believe that God wants no harm on him/her. For people with these kinds of wounds, each step of the opening of the heart, each time, is an act of trust, a step in faith. In Medjugorje, Mary heals our hearts so that this path of opening and trust may become possible again, that we may receive a greater share of the fullness of the grace of God. 25 Julai 2005 , 17:26 , Originally published 3 Desemba 2002 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews Interview - Fr Daniel-Ange -- “Through Medjugorje, Our Lady Educates the Visionaries for the Evangelisation and Helps the Bishops and the Priests in the New Evangelisation”![]() What I like in Medjugorje is that visionaries are also witnesses. They accept to give witness, they accept to transmit Our Lady’s message. They are missionaries and this is the characteristic of Our Lady’s apparitions in last 30 years. Bernadette entered into a convent, but these visionaries are educated by Our Lady to be evangelisators. It was wonderful when I was in the USA, at the Notre-Dame University, with Ivan. I was giving talks, he was giving talks, and it was wonderful: myself as a catholic priest and he as a child of God in a direct connection with heaven. It is wonderful. 25 Julai 2005 , 16:57 , Originally published 18 Novemba 2002 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Interviews Interview - Fr. Leo Maasburg -- “The Collaboration Between Mother Teresa and the Grace of Medjugorje is Visible”![]() I have learned one thing from Mother Teresa: it is not important what we expect and what we desire. The only important is to confide oneself to the guidance of Jesus and of Mary. There are surely people who come with some big problem, but the biggest problem is always lack of holiness! We surely bring with us people who entrust themselves into our prayer, but we should not limit the Lord and Our Lady to the gifts they give us. 22 Julai 2005 , Originally published 20 Septemba 2002 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Medjugorje and Vatican / Author: Pope John Paul II Apostolic Letter “ROSARIUM VIRGINIS MARIAE” on the Most Holy Rosary![]() The Holy Father John Paul II published on October 16, 2002 the Apostolic Letter on the Most Holy Rosary under the title, “Rosarium Virginis Mariae”, where he also proclaims a year of the Holy Rosary, beginning today and running through the same date next year. The Holy Father asks that the Rosary be prayed particularly for the causes of world peace and the strengthening of family life. In this document, the Pope proposes five new mysteries of the Rosary under the name “luminous mysteries” or “mysteries of light”. 21 Julai 2005 , Originally published 5 Agosti 2001 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Medjugorje and Vatican / Author: Pope John Paul II John Paul II´s Message for World Youth Day 2002![]() "You are the salt of the earth, You are the light of the world" (Mt 5:13-14)It is the nature of human beings, and especially youth, to seek the Absolute, the meaning and fullness of life. Dear young people, do not be content with anything less than the highest ideals! Do not let yourselves be dispirited by those who are disillusioned with life and have grown deaf to the deepest and most authentic desires of their heart. You are right to be disappointed with hollow entertainment and passing fads, and with aiming at too little in life. If you have an ardent desire for the Lord you will steer clear of the mediocrity and conformism so widespread in our society. 21 Julai 2005 , Originally published 3 Oktoba 2000 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Medjugorje and Vatican / Author: Pope John Paul II Dialogue Between Cultures for a Civilization of Love and Peace![]() MESSAGE OF HIS HOLINESS 1. At the dawn of a new millennium, there is growing hope that relationships between people will be increasingly inspired by the ideal of a truly universal brotherhood. Unless this ideal is shared, there will be no way to ensure a stable peace. There are many signs which suggest that this conviction is becoming more deeply rooted in people's minds. The importance of fraternity is proclaimed in the great "charters" of human rights; it is embodied in great international institutions, particularly the United Nations; and it is called for, as never before, by the process of globalization which is leading to a progressive unification of the economy, culture and society. For their part, the followers of the different religions are ever more conscious of the fact that a relationship with the one God, the common Father of all, cannot fail to bring about a greater sense of human brotherhood and a more fraternal life together. In God's revelation in Christ, this principle finds a radical expression: "He who does not love does not know God; for God is love" (1 Jn 4:8). 21 Julai 2005 , Originally published 10 Novemba 2001 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Priests of Medjugorje, Theology reports / Author: Dr. Fra Slavko Barbarić, OFM The Family in the Messages of Our Lady Queen of Peace![]() To love and to be loved is the fundamental and the deepest desire of every man. We do not even need to discuss how important love and acceptance are in the family school of life. Lack of love and acceptance in the family leave deep scars. It is not unheard of that even the newly conceived child feels and knows if it is accepted with love or not. It is known from therapeutic practice, that deep fears, which can follow a person throughout his entire life, are often caused prior to birth, if the father and mother contemplated abortion. 21 Julai 2005 , 22:00 , Originally published 10 Novemba 2001 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Theology reports, Priests of Medjugorje / Author: Dr. fra Ivan Dugandzic, OFM Apparitions, Visions, Revelations![]() In 1973, there was a stormy discussion among theologians about the significance of Jesus' resurrection and the meaning of speech in the apparitions of the Risen One as the New Testament speaks of them. R. Pesch, a liberal Catholic biblical scholar, provoked that discussion with his assertion that talk about the resurrection is merely "the expression of the believers' recognition of Jesus' eschatological significance, his mission and authority, his legitimation in view of his death." Talk about apparitions would merely be the "legitimation" of the disciples, that is, their determination to proclaim that "significance of Jesus." His Protestant, very moderate colleague, M. Hengel, in his response particularly regrets that in present times visions are made equivalent to hallucinations and continues, "Since the rich mystical tradition of the Church has dried up, at least in our regions, theologians are then no longer in authority for these manifestations, but rather psychiatrists or drug experts. A vision is considered a pathological manifestation" (ThQ 3/1973, p. 255). It was as though it were a prophetic word for what will be shown also in the case of the apparitions in Medjugorje eight years later. 20 Julai 2005 , Originally published 10 Novemba 2001 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Medjugorje in the Catholic Church, Theology reports, Priests of Medjugorje / Author: Dr. fra Ljudevit Rupcic, OFM "Private" Revelation and Medjugorje![]() The term "private" revelations has already for a long time become customary in theology. In contrast to it is public revelation. However, public revelation would be the one given in the Bible, and private the one given apart from the Bible. Accordingly, it would be more justifiable to speak of biblical and extra-biblical revelation. Assigning a greater honour and significance to the biblical than to the other has no real reason whatsoever. Because if they are both true, if they both come from God, according to their origin they are both divine and equally valuable. Both, the one and the other, God intends for people and wants them to accept both of them. Otherwise, there would be no reason for him to speak at all. If there may be some justifiable difference between them, it can never be in the sense that one is obligatory and the other is not. They are both obligatory. For every one that has been reached by them and for the one who has attained sufficient reasons and moral security regarding their authenticity, both of them oblige equally. 20 Julai 2005 , Originally published Julai, 1997 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Medjugorje in the Catholic Church, Theology reports / Author: René Laurentin René Laurentin - The Position of Medjugorje in the Church![]() The position of Medjugorje in the Church is a difficult, disputed subject, an object of confusion and ambiguities, that is important to dissipate. Among us, Medjugorje does not need any explanations. It is a place of grace where Our Lady has manifested Herself by all the exceptional fruits: spiritual life, conversions, healings. "The tree is judged by its fruits," says the Lord, and it is the only criterion of discernment that comes from Him (Mt 7:20; 12:33). 20 Julai 2005 , Originally published 25 Juni 1997 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Priests of Medjugorje, Medjugorje in the Catholic Church The Spiritual Movement of the Queen of Peace![]() Dear Friends, Members of Medjugorie Prayer Groups, This letter is an expression of the deep affection which unites us to the message of Medjugorie! Knowing that many people (bishops, priests, religious and laity) have gratefully testified to the abundant spiritual fruits of this message, we would like, through this letter, to make you participants in a group testimony. This testimony should contribute to the defense of this work of Mary, a work which is spread throughout the whole world and which continues to be threatened in many places. 20 Julai 2005 , Originally published 10 Julai 2002 / Section: Medjugorje News & Articles - Category: Prayers, Medjugorje News Prayer of Consecration to the Blessed Virgin Mary![]() This prayer has been made by the priests during the "7th International Meeting for Priests at the School of Mary" in Medjugorje. Immaculate Virgin Mary, Our Mother, Queen of Peace! We, the priests, Your beloved sons, want to consecrate ourselves today to Your Immaculate Heart. By this act of consecration, we wish to put into life - with You and with Your help – all of the obligations that we have taken upon ourselves through our Baptismal and Priestly consecration. 23 Juni 2005 Festival Mladifest![]() 5 Mei 2005 , 19:13 / Section: About Medjugorje WebSite - Category: Section Documents / Author: Marek Gayer Searching in Messages - Examples with sample analyses of importanceHere we present sample ideas summarized to three examples that we can reach by statistical overview and full text search of Messages with some general considerations and analysis of Medjugorje messages.
