(ENGLISH). “Dear children! With joy I am calling all of you, little children, who have responded to my call: be joy and peace. Witness with your lives Heaven, which I am bringing to you. It is time, little children, that you be a reflection of my love for all those who do not love and whose hearts hatred has conquered. Do not forget: I am with you and intercede for all of you before my Son Jesus, that He may give you His peace. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Gospina poruka, 25. kolovoz 2021„Draga djeco! S radošću vas sve pozivam, dječice, koji ste se odazvali mome pozivu, budite radost i mir. Svjedočite svojim životima nebo koje vam nosim. Vrijeme je, dječice, da budete odsjaj moje ljubavi za sve one koji ne ljube i čija srca je osvojila mržnja. Ne zaboravite: ja sam s vama i zagovaram za sve vas pred mojim sinom Isusom da vam dadne svoj mir. Hvala vam što ste se odazvali mome pozivu.

Visionary Ivan pray for priests youth peace

 Through our prayers for peace & keeping God's commandments we can renew this suffering world.

Ivan Dragicevic - Medjugorje Visionary Interview, 1991. Translating to English for him is Helen Sarcevic (our Mom :-) ), who answered Gospa's call & started Mir-Peace pilgrimages in the 1980s to help Americans to authentically experience God's graces and the true faith of the visionaries and Croatian families there.

"...Our Lady has been giving messages to him that have remained consistent and are as relevant today as they were in 1991. Our Lady has asked him to pray for young people and for priests.
In this interview he talks about the importance of praying as a family, especially the family rosary. Our Lady wants a restoration of family life with love and harmony between parents and children. We have to have peace first in our hearts, and peace in our families, and then it will spill over into society."

      link:    Medjugorje visionary Ivan interview

When asked if Our Lady has a message for the United States of America, Ivan responds that her messages to the world are for everyone, because she loves ALL her children, every single one of them, because she is the mother of all of us.

Gospa, the Queen of Peace, always invites us to pray for peace... First the peace must reign in our hearts, individually. Then also the harmony of peace in the family.

In 1981, the Blessed Mother began appearing to six young people, (“visionaries”) and giving messages to the world through them, in a small Croatian Catholic church parish in Bosnia Hercegovina named #Medjugorje. She told the visionaries, "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”.

„Draga djeco! Pozivam vas da budete molitva za sve one koji ne mole. Svjedočite, dječice, vašim životima radost da ste moji, a Bog će uslišati vaše molitve i dati vam mir u ovom nemirnom svijetu, gdje oholost i sebičnost vlada. Dječice, vi budite darežljivi i ljubav moje ljubavi, da pogani osjete da ste moji i da se obrate mom Bezgrješnom Srcu. Hvala vam što ste se odazvali mome pozivu.“

What God desires of us then and now

 (EN) Our Lady, Gospa's Medjugorje Message, March 18, 2009. - The annual apparition of Our Lady to Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo
(HR) Gospina poruka, 18. ožujak 2009. - Godišnje ukazanje Mirjani Dragićević-Soldo

 

(ENGLISH) “Dear children!
-- Today I call you to look into your hearts sincerely and for a long time. What will you see in them? Where is my Son ((Jesus Christ)) in them and where is the desire to follow me to Him?
-- My children, may this time of renunciation be a time when you will ask yourself: 'What does my God desire of me personally? What am I to do?' Pray, fast and have a heart full of mercy. Do not forget your shepherds. Pray that they may not get lost, that they may remain in my Son so as to be good shepherds to their flock. ”

Renunciation is the act of rejecting something, often indicating an abandonment of pursuit of material comforts, in the interests of achieving spiritual enlightenment.
Gospel, Matthew 16:24
24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.

(HRVATSKI) Gospina poruka, 18. ožujak 2009. - Godišnje ukazanje Mirjani Dragićević-Soldo
“Draga djeco!
-- Danas vas pozivam da iskreno i dugo gledate u svoja srca. Što ćete u njima vidjeti? Gdje je u njima moj Sin i želja da me slijedite k njemu?
-- Djeco moja, neka ovo vrijeme odricanja bude vrijeme kada ćete se zapitati: što osobno od mene želi moj Bog? Što mi je činiti? Molite, postite, imajte srce puno milosrđa. Ne zaboravite na svoje pastire. Molite da se ne izgube, da ostanu u mome Sinu kako bi bili dobri pastiri svome stadu. ”

Evanđelje po Mateju 16:24
24 Tada Isus reče svojim učenicima: 'želi li tko biti mojim sljedbenikom, neka se odrekne samoga sebe, neka uzme svoj križ i neka ide za mnom.

What God desires of us now: repent, take up your own cross, prayers, mercy.

 Gospa's Medjugorje Message, 25. June 2021, on the 40th anniversary of God's extra graces by sending her (Blessed Virgin Mary) to Medjugorje to help us find our paths to our Father through her messages given to the visionaries in that shrine, Our Lady Queen of Peace. She often asks us to pray for peace in our hearts, individually so after that we can live in peace & love, with forgiveness and freedom from our sins also in our families, and with all her children, every soul. 

*** (MirPeace pilgrimage group is based in the United States. We wish everyone in the USA celebrating the 4th of July  a happy, blessed & safe Independence Day holiday weekend) 

(EN) Gospa's Medjugorje Message, 25. June 2021.
“Dear children!  

My heart is joyful because through these years I see your love and openness to my call. Today I am calling all of you: pray with me for peace and freedom, because Satan is strong and by his deception, wants to lead away all the more hearts from my motherly heart. That is why decide for God so that it may be good for you on the earth which God gave you. Thank you for having responded to my call."

„Draga djeco!
Moje je srce radosno jer kroz ove godine vidim vašu ljubav i otvorenost mom pozivu. Danas vas sve pozivam: molite se sa mnom za mir i slobodu, jer sotona je jak i želi svojim prevarama odvesti što više srca od mog majčinskog srca. Zato se odlučite za Boga da vam bude dobro na zemlji koju vam je Bog dao. Hvala vam što ste se odazvali mome pozivu.“

40th anniversary

 This month, June 24th-25th, the Croatian Catholic parish of Medjugorje (and many people of faith around the world) celebrate the 40th (fortieth) anniversary that the Blessed Virgin Mary helps us get closer to God through her guidance in apparitions! There is also an annual impressive Peace March.

A milestone for this "heaven on earth" that Pope Francis and many faithful around the world recognize as the Shrine of Our Lady Queen of Peace.

A time of grace, God's grace.

Sharing her message & a video from the 30th anniversary of Our Lady Gospa, Queen of Peace apparitions from June 25, 2011. We are there in Spirit through sincere prayer with the heart.

(HR) Gospina Medjugorska poruka, 25. lipanj 2011.

(ENGLISH) "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."

(HRVATSKI) Gospina Medjugorska poruka, 25. lipanj 2011.

“Draga djeco! Zahvaljujte sa mnom Svevišnjem na mojoj prisutnosti s vama. Radosno je moje srce gledajući ljubav i radost u življenju mojih poruka. Mnogi ste se odazvali, ali čekam i tražim sva zaspala srca da se probude od sna nevjere. Približite se još više dječice mom Bezgrješnom srcu da vas sve mogu voditi prema vječnosti. Hvala vam što ste se odazvali mome pozivu. ”

This year due to a worldwide pandemic our Mir-Peace pilgrimage group and many others will not travel there as we had in past years, but God's peace and love are in our hearts. We join pilgrims from around the world in prayer, answering the Blessed Virgin Mary's call to pray, fast, confess our sins, and convert our hearts and minds and lives for God's will. God bless us all!

History trivia: About 100,000 pilgrims celebrated the 30th anniversary of the first appearance of apparitions of the Virgin Mary in Bosnia Hercegovina in 2011. As of 2011, more than 30 million people have visited the shrine.
