Medjugorje

You are here. You said yes. Now experience all that awaits you in beautiful Medjugorje. Simple and peaceful. While here you will have the opportunity to deepen your faith and share and grow your experiences with your fellow pilgrims from around the world. Our local guide Miki will be with us through our stay here in the village and he arranges our itinerary day by day depending on the schedule and weather.

Attend Daily Mass During Your Stay: At the end of each Mass, regardless of language, there is a blessing of religious articles for pilgrims.

Climb Apparition Hill

It is the place where the first apparitions of Our Lady took place, a bare and stony hill overlooking Bijakovici, the area of Medjugorje where the little visionaries lived. In the early years the top of the hill could be reached by a narrow and almost impassable path, crossed only by shepherds and sheep, but thanks to the millions of pilgrims who attended it today it is wide and free of obstacles. At the top of the hill, there is a statue of Our Lady in the exact location of her first apparition. Enjoy private time for prayer in this holy place.

Climb Mt. Krizevac (Cross Mountain)

Krizevac is the highest mountain in Medjugorje (520 m above sea level). On March 15, 1934 the parishioners built a 8.5-m high reinforced concrete cross to commemorate the 1900th Anniversary of Jesus’ passion and death, and engraved the words: “To Jesu

s Christ the Redeemer of humanity as a sign of faith, love and hope, and in memory of the 1900th anniversary of the Passion of Christ”. Take private time at the top of the mountain in front of the cross, for prayer in this holy place.

Apparitions: Each evening at 6:00 PM we will join the villagers and fellow pilgrims of Medjugorje in saying the Rosary, as all await the arrival of Our Lady to the visionaries at 6:40 PM. Afterwards, you can stay at St. James Church and attend the Croatian Mass. Following the Croatian Mass, there is a Blessing of the Sick.

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament: Our Lady has always called us to be close to her Son. In response to her call, pilgrims will have the opportunity to adore the Blessed Sacrament at the altar outside of St. James Church. Eucharistic Adoration is one of the most memorable experiences in Medjugorje. God’s grace is so tangible, one feels as though they can reach out and touch the Holy Spirit.

Meetings with the Visionaries: Mirjana Soldo, one of the six original children who saw the Virgin Mary in 1981, will be your hostess during the pilgrimage. You’ll get the chance to meet her, ask questions about her experience, and take pictures. Mirjana fills every pilgrimage with holiness, wisdom, and joy.

Visit the Community of Cenacolo: Pilgrims will have the opportunity to visit the Community of Cenacolo, founded by Sr. Elvira Petrozzi, for young men and women who have taken the wrong path and are on the road to recovery. You will be able to listen to their inspirational testimonies about their journeys back to Jesus Christ.

Prayer at the Statue of the Risen Christ: The bronze statue of the Risen Christ, located on the grounds of St. James Church. This statue miraculously seeps droplets of water out of Christ’s right knee. Many pilgrims sit and pray on the benches surrounding this statue.

Medjugorje – Home

On June 25, 1981, in the mountain village of Medjugorje in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Our Lady appeared to six children. She identified herself as the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Peace and continues to appear to several of the visionaries today. Her mission is to promote peace with God and mankind through her Son, Jesus. Mary’s own words to the children explained, “I have come to tell the world that God exists.”
