Since 1981, in a small village named Medjugorje in Bosnia-Herzegovina, The Blessed Virgin Mary has been appearing and giving messages to the world. She tells us that God has sent her to our world and, these years she is spending with us are a time of Grace granted by God. In her own words she tells us, "I have come to tell the world that God exists. He is the fullness of life, and to enjoy this fullness and peace, you must return to God".
Since the apparitions began in 1981, millions of people of all faiths, from all over the world, have visited Medjugorje and have left spiritually strengthened and renewed. Countless unbelievers and physically or mentally afflicted, have been converted and healed.
"Dear children, this is the reason for my presence among you for such a long time: to lead you on the path of Jesus. I want to save you and, through you, to save the whole world. Many people now live without faith; some don't even want to hear about Jesus, but they still want peace and satisfaction! Children, here is the reason why I need your prayer: prayer is the only way to save the human race." (July 30, 1987)
We must realize that Satan is real. He uses us for his own end and purposes. His main purpose is destruction of love, peace, faith, family, and life. Just as God gave David 5 stones with which to defeat Goliath, Our Lady is giving us 5 Stones or Weapons we can use to defeat Satan: Holy Mass and Communion, pray the Rosary daily, fast on Wednesdays and Fridays, read the Bible daily, monthly Confession.
In thanksgiving for 30 years of her daily apparitions, let us pray every day at 3:00PM. "In this hour, I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in the virtue of My Passion" that all of Our Lady of Medjugorje's intentions that day will be granted!
"At three o'clock, implore My mercy, especially for sinners; and, if only for a brief moment, immerse yourself in My passion, particularly in My abandonment at the moment of agony. This is the hour of great mercy for the whole world. I will allow you to enter into MY mortal sorrow. In this hour, I will refuse nothing to the soul that makes a request of Me in the virtue of My Passion...." (Diary of St. Faustina, paragraph 1320)
Our Lady's 30th Anniversary Message
“Dear children! Give thanks with me to the Most High for my presence with you. My heart is joyful watching the love and joy in the living of my messages. Many of you have responded, but I wait for, and seek, all the hearts that have fallen asleep to awaken from the sleep of unbelief. Little children, draw even closer to my Immaculate Heart so that I can lead all of you toward eternity. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
Our Lady of Medjugorje, Queen of Peace, pray for us and all those for whom we pray.
