Op
30 december 2009, hield kardinaal Christoph Schönborn,
aartsbisschop
van
Wenen en een lid van de Vaticaanse Congregatie voor de Geloofsleer, een
krachtige, lange toespraak in de St. Jacobuskerk in Medjugorje.
Schönborn's
toespraak draaide rond het thema van Gods genade, en hij aarzelde niet
om Medjugorje te prijzen.
Zijn eerste woorden toen
hij naar het podium stapte waren "Hvaljen Isus i Marija", een
Kroatische gezegde dat betekent "Geprezen zij Jezus en Maria."Dit is een gebruikelijke
begroeting tussen de zieners en dorpelingen van Medjugorje.De kardinaal herhaalde
het verscheidene malen en drong er bij de menigte op aan het te
herhalen met hem.
Hij ging verder met te
zeggen "Als
je kijkt naar een plaats als Medjugorje, kunt u een supermacht van
barmhartigheid zien. Vele barmhartige daden zijn hier geboren of ze
werden hier ondersteund."
Tijdens
een aangrijpend moment van zijn spreken, drong kardinaal Schönborn
er
bij de menigte op aan te staan en met hem het welbekende Medjugorjelied
Gospa Majka Moja mee te zingen. Hij lachte hartelijk
terwijl hij meezong.
Zich verder verdiepend in
het onderwerp van genade, zei kardinaal Schönborn: "Wat
een diep gevoel van mededogen is er in Jezus. Veel daden van
barmhartigheid in de kerk zijn precies op deze manier geboren, zoals
Moeder Teresa, die het niet kon aanvaarden dat mensen op straat
stierven. Of
moeder Elvira, hier in Medjugorje, de stichter van het Cenacelo Gemeenschap rehabilitatiecentrum: ze niet kon er niet
tegen om jongeren aan de drugs te zien,
hun leven vernietigend met drugs. Wat is deze diepe, diepzinnige emotie
die we mededogen noemen? "
Zijn toespraak in
Medjugorje beëindigend, zei kardinaal Schönborn: "Ik
geloof dat vele ervaringen in de kerk iets laten zien dat onmogelijk is
vanuit een menselijk gezichtspunt."
Kardinaal Schönborn
is in Medjugorje sinds 28 december. Hij zal de
oudejaarsavondmis in de St. Jacobuskerk vieren. Het
bezoek en impliciete steun van een dergelijke prominente
Vaticaanse kardinaal wordt door velen gezien als een zeer positieve
indicatie van het standpunt van de Kerk over de verschijningen.
Terwijl
sommigen hadden verwacht dat het bezoek van kardinaal Schönborn
aan
Medjugorje privé was, heeft hij in plaats daarvan het dorp
verrast
door zeer zichtbaar te zijn.Hij
bracht zijn tijd door met het concelebreren van de Mis in de St.
Jacobuskerk, het beklimmen
van de Verschijningsheuvel met visionaire Marija Lunetti, biecht horen,
in
stilte bidden bij de aanbidding, en, misschien het meest opmerkelijk,
het geven van zijn toespraak vandaag
in de parochiekerk met de Franciscanen aan zijn zijde.
December 25, 2009 - Jakov Colo experienced his
annual apparition
on Christmas day. It began at 2:35 PM and lasted 12 minutes. Our Lady
gave the following message:
"Dear children! All of this time in which God in a
special way
permits me to be with you, I desire to lead you on the way that leads
to Jesus and to your salvation. My little children, you can find
salvation only in God and therefore, especially on this day of grace
with little Jesus in my arms, I call you to permit Jesus to be born in
your hearts. Only with Jesus in your heart can you set out on the way
of salvation and eternal life. Thank you for having responded to my
call."
Jakov reported that Our Lady appeared holding baby Jesus in her arms.
During the apparition, a tear streaked down Jakov's face.
We've posted exclusive video of the apparition on our other website, MedjugorjeVideo.com.
Sean Bloomfield, founder of Queen of Peace Productions, was granted
permission to film the apparition. Due to many requests, we are
releasing a short DVD called "Christmas in Medjugorje" that includes
Jakov's entire apparition. You

Message
to
Mirjana
- December 2, 2009
"Dear children! At this time of preparation and
joyful
expectation I, as a mother, desire to point you to what is the most
important, to your soul. Can my Son be born in it? Is it cleansed by
love from lies, arrogance, hatred and malice? Above all else does your
soul love God as your Father and does it love your fellow brother in
Christ? I am pointing you to the way which will raise your soul to a
complete union with my Son. I desire for my Son to be born in you. What
a joy that would be for me as mother. Thank you."
Message

Mirjana
- November 2, 2009
"Dear children! Also today I am among you to point
you to the way
that will help you to come to know God's love, the love of God Who
permitted you to call Him Father and to perceive Him as Father. I ask
of you to sincerely look into your hearts and to see how much you love
Him. Is He the last to be loved? Surrounded by material goods, how many
times have you betrayed, denied and forgotten Him? My children, do not
deceive yourselves with worldly goods. Think of your soul because it is
more important than the body, cleanse it. Invoke the Father, He is
waiting for you. Come back to Him. I am with you because He, in His
mercy, sends me. Thank you."

Mirjana
- October 2, 2009
Our Lady appeared to the visionary Mirjana as she does every 2nd of the
month, to pray for unbelievers. The following is the message that was
given:
"Dear Children, as I look at you, my heart seizes
with pain.
Where are you going, my children? Have you sunk so deeply into sin that
you do not know how to stop yourselves? You justify yourselves with sin
and live according to it. Kneel down beneath the Cross and look at my
Son. He conquered sin and died so that you, my children, may live.
Permit me to help you not to die but to live with my Son forever."
Message
to
Mirjana
- September 2, 2009
Our Lady appeared to the visionary Mirjana this morning in Medjugorje
and gave the following message:
"Dear children; Today, with a motherly heart, I call
you to learn
to forgive, completely and unconditionally. You suffer injustice,
betrayals and persecutions, but by that you are closer to and dearer to
God. My children, pray for the gift of love. Only love forgives all, as
my Son forgives – follow Him. I am among you and am praying that
when you come before your Father you can say: 'Here I am Father, I
followed your Son, I had love and forgave with the heart, because I
believed in your judgment and trusted in you.' Thank you."
Message
to
Mirjana
- August 2, 2009
Thousands of people were present near the Blue Cross, at the base of
Apparition Hill, for the monthly apparition to visionary Mirjana Soldo.
After the apparition, Mirjana relayed the following message from Our
Lady:
"Dear children, I am coming, with my motherly love,
to point out
the way by which you are to set out, in order that you may be all the
more like my Son; and by that, closer to and more pleasing to God. Do
not refuse my love. Do not renounce salvation and eternal life for the
sake of the transience and frivolity of this life. I am among you to
lead you and, as a mother, to caution you. Come with me."
Mirjana reported that Our Lady appeared with the sun shining behind her
during the entire apparition. At the same time, thousands of onlookers
also reported seeing what is commonly called the miracle of the sun,
where
a
person can look directly at the sun without any discomfort.
According to one eyewitness, "The
sun was going forward and backward, and then we saw a cross which
traveled from Blue Cross to Cross Mountain and started to change
colors. Many saw this. It was chaos, some screamed, some cried."

Our Lady appeared to the visionary Mirjana today in front of the Blue
Cross, located at the base of Apparition Hill where the Medjugorje
apparitions began just over 28 years ago.
The apparition started at 8:51 AM and ended at 8:56 AM.
Mirjana was given the following message:
"Dear children! I am calling you because I need you.
I need
hearts ready for immeasurable love— hearts that are not burdened
by vanity— hearts that are ready to love as my Son loved—
that are ready to sacrifice themselves as my Son sacrificed Himself. I
need you. In order to come with me, forgive yourselves, forgive others
and adore my Son. Adore Him also for those who have not come to know
Him, those who do not love him. Therefore, I need you; therefore, I
call you. Thank you."
Our
Lady speaks about the 10th Secret on 28th Anniversary
June 25th, 2009, began as a cool, sunny day in Medjugorje. As the
village swelled with jubilant pilgrims celebrating the 28th anniversary
of the apparitions, however, dark storm clouds began to form on the
horizon. Soon, Medjugorje was being pelted with heavy rain, strong
winds and lightning.
Our Lady graced Medjugorje with several messages for the anniversary,
first appearing to Ivanka Ivankovic-Elez for her regular annual
apparition. Ivanka had the apparition at home in the presence of her
family. Ivanka said the following about her apparition today:
“Our Lady remained with me for 10 minutes and spoke to me of the tenth
secret. Our Lady said: ‘Dear children, I call you to be apostles of
peace. Peace, peace, peace.'"
Today's apparition was certainly interesting in that Our Lady spoke
about the tenth secret. In fact, she has spoken to Ivanka about the
secrets in many of her recent annual apparitions. A striking sequence
stands out when one looks at the accounts of her most recent
apparitions.
1. June 25, 2005 - Our Lady spoke to Ivanka about the
6th secret.
2. June 25, 2006 - Our Lady spoke to Ivanka about the 7th secret.
3. June 25, 2007 - Ivanka did not mention anything about secrets.
4. June 25, 2008 - Our Lady spoke to Ivanka about the 9th secret.
5. June 25, 2009 (Today) - Our Lady spoke to Ivanka about the 10th
secret.
Nothing has been said by the parish or the visionaries as to whether or
not any meaning can be derived from this sequence. Many people feel
that the time of the secrets seems to be close at hand, including the
Croatian priest who will release them, Fr. Petar. Some of his testimony
can be seen in this new video.
The night of the anniversary was concluded with the
visionary
Ivan experiencing a nighttime apparition on Apparition Hill at 10 PM.
Message
to
Mirjana
on June 2, 2009
"Dear children! My love seeks your complete and
unconditional
love, which will not leave you the same as you are, instead it will
change you and teach you to trust in my Son. My children, with my love
I am saving you and making you true witnesses of the goodness of my
Son. Therefore, my children, do not be afraid to witness love in the
name of my Son. Thank you."
While Our Lady was leaving, Mirjana saw a cross and, in the middle of
the cross, a heart with a crown of thorns around it. According to
Mirjana's account of the apparition, "Our Lady was not sad."

and blessed us."
The following is the message that was given by Our Lady:
"Dear children! Already for a long time I am giving
you my motherly
heart and offering my Son to you. You are rejecting me. You are
permitting sin to overcome you more and more. You are permitting it to
master you and to take away your power of discernment. My poor
children, look around you and look at the signs of the times. Do you
think that you can do without God's blessing? Do not permit darkness to
envelop you. From the depth of your heart cry out for my Son. His Name
disperses even the greatest darkness. I will be with you, you just call
me: 'Here we are Mother, lead us.' Thank you."
Message
to
Mirjana
on April 2, 2009
"Dear children, God's love is in my words. My
children, that is the
love which desires to turn you to justice and truth. That is the love
which desires to save you from delusion. And what about you, my
children? Your hearts remain closed; they are hard and do not respond
to my calls. They are insincere. With a motherly love I am praying for
you, because I desire for all of you to resurrect in my Son. Thank you."
Annual
Apparition
to
Mirjana on March 18, 2009
The visionary Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo had daily apparitions from June
24th 1981 to December 25th 1982. During her last daily apparition, Our
Lady gave her the 10th secret, and told her that she would appear to
her once a year, on the 18th of March.
Several thousand pilgrims gathered in prayer of the Rosary at the "Blue
Cross," near the base of Apparition Hill. The apparition lasted from
1:52 to 1:58 PM. Our Lady gave the following message:
"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 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."
Our Lady then looked at all those present and added: "Again I say
to you, if you knew how much I love you, you would cry with happiness.
Thank you."
Message
to
Mirjana
on March 2, 2009
"Dear children! I am here among you. I am looking into
your wounded
and restless hearts. You have become lost, my children. Your wounds
from sin are becoming greater and greater and are distancing you all
the more from the real truth. You are seeking hope and consolation in
the wrong places, while I am offering to you sincere devotion which is
nurtured by love, sacrifice and truth. I am giving you my Son."
Message
to
Mirjana
on February 2, 2009
"Dear children! With a motherly heart, today I desire
to remind you
of—namely, to draw your attention to—God's immeasurable
love and the patience which ensues from it. Your Father is sending me
and is waiting. He is waiting for your open hearts to be ready for His
works. He is waiting for your hearts to be united in Christian love and
mercy in the spirit of my Son. Do not lose time, children, because you
are not its masters. Thank you."
Message
to
Mirjana
on January 2, 2009
"Dear children! While great Heavenly grace is being
lavished upon
you, your hearts remain hard and without response. My children, why do
you not give me your hearts completely? I only desire to put in them
peace and salvation – my Son. With my Son your soul will be
directed to noble goals and you will never get lost. Even in greatest
darkness you will find the way. My children, decide for a new life with
the name of my Son on your lips. Thank you."
Message
to
Mirjana
on December 2, 2008
"Dear children! In this holy time of joyful
expectation, God has
chosen you, the little ones, to realize His great intentions. My
children, be humble. Through your humility, with His wisdom, God will
make of your souls a chosen home. You will illuminate it with good
works and thus, with an open heart, you will welcome the birth of my
Son in all of His generous love. Thank you, dear children."
Message
to
visionary
Mirjana on November 2, 2008
"Dear children, today I call you to a complete union
with God. Your
body is on earth, but I ask you for your soul to be all the more often
in God’s nearness. You will achieve this through prayer, prayer
with an open heart. In that way you will thank God for the immeasurable
goodness which He gives to you through me and, with a sincere heart,
you will receive the obligation to treat the souls whom you meet with
equal goodness. Thank you, my children."
Our Lady added, "With the heart I pray to God to give strength and
love to your shepherds to help you in this and to lead you."
Message
to
visionary
Mirjana on October 2, 2008
"Dear children! Again I call you to faith. My motherly
heart desires
for your heart to be open, so that it could say to your heart: believe.
My children, only faith will give you strength in life's trials. It
will renew your soul and open the ways of hope. I am with you. I gather
you around me because I desire to help you, so that you can help your
neighbours to discover faith, which is the only joy and happiness of
life. Thank you."
Our Lady blessed everyone present as well as all
religious articles.
Once again, she called us to pray for our priests, especially at this
time.
Lectures
About
Medjugorje
Held at Pontifical Conference
It was recently reported on the official shrine website (medjugorje.hr)
that two lectures about Medjugorje were held at the Pontifical Marian
International Academy which took place earlier this month in Lourdes.
This
is
the
article from the shrine website:
“Apparitions of the BVM – Between history, faith and
theology”, was the theme of the 22nd mariologic congress, which
was held in Lourdes from September 4 to 8, 2008.
The most famous experts in theology, history of art, literature and
ethnology from all over the world gathered together, and among them
also the members of the Croatian section of the Croatian Mariologic
Institute of the Faculty of Catholic Theology in Zagreb.
During the morning, the Congress worked in plenary sessions, and in the
afternoon in 15 language sections, among which also the Croatian
section. Two lectures treated the theme of Medjugorje: The Medjugorje
apparitions and the universal Church, position of the Church
dignitaries (Edo Peričić), and The Medjugorje
apparitions
and theology (Adalbert Rebić).
Croatian theologians, whether in favour of Medjugorje or fervently
critical towards it, speak positively about what is presently happening
in Medjugorje. “The
fruits of the Medjugorje phenomenon are not disputable. Medjugorje is
already now at the level of Fatima and Lourdes”, says Dr.
Adalbert Rebić. „The apparitions and the visionaries have
to wait… the main problem is in the fact that the local bishop
is reserved towards this phenomenon, and we should neither neglect the
fact that the visionaries are still quite young”, explains
Rebić and adds that everything that is presently happening
in
Medjugorje is in conformity with the Church teachings, not only
recognised but even recommended by the Church, and that the Bishops
Conference already recognised these fruits.
Dr. Ivan Karić, a theologian who also participated in the
congress, underlines that Medjugorje has de facto already become a
shrine.
But the Vatican, because of a certain lack of clarity, has not yet
recognised the authenticity of apparitions. He adds that the destiny of
Medjugorje depends very much on the position of the local bishop.
Another theologian, Dr. Mato Zovkić, considers that
Medjugorje
can go on even with the restraint connected with the apparitions and
the visionaries. He considers that the phenomenon of Medjugorje is
unusual, because of the important number of the apparitions which last
an exceptionally long time. It is impossible to give an official
position as long as the apparitions are still happening.
Message
to
visionary
Mirjana on September 2, 2008
"Dear children! Today, with my motherly heart, I call
you gathered
around me to love your neighbor. My children, stop. Look in the eyes of
your brother and see Jesus, my Son. If you see joy, rejoice with him.
If there is pain in the eyes of your brother, with your tenderness and
goodness, cast it away, because without love you are lost. Only love is
effective; it works miracles. Love will give you unity in my Son and
the victory of my heart. Therefore, my children, love."
Mirjana reported that Our Lady blessed all of the people present and
all of the religious articles. Once again, she called us to pray for
our shepherds.
Message
to
visionary
Mirjana on August 2nd, 2008
"Dear children! In my
coming to you, here among you, the greatness
of God is reflected and the way with God to eternal joy is opening. Do
not feel weak, alone or abandoned. Along with faith, prayer and love
climb to the hill of salvation. May the Mass, the most exalted and most
powerful act of your prayer, be the center of your spiritual life.
Believe and love, my children. Those whom my Son chose and called will
help you in this as well. To you and to them especially, I give my
motherly blessing. Thank you."
Our Lady blessed all people present and all religious articles brought
for blessing.
Message
to
visionary
Mirjana on July 2nd, 2008
"Dear Children! With motherly love I desire to
encourage you to love
your neighbor. May my Son be the source of that love. He, who could
have done everything by force, chose love and gave an example to you.
Also today, through me, God expresses immeasurable goodness to you and,
you children, are obliged to respond to it. With equal goodness and
generosity behave towards the souls whom you meet. May your love
convert them. In that way my Son and his love will resurrect in you.
Thank you."
Our Lady added: "Your shepherds should be in your hearts and your
prayers."
"Dear children, I am with you by the grace of God,
to make you
great - great in faith and love - all of you! You whose heart has been
made hard as a stone by sin and guilt (According to
Mirjana, when Our Lady said this, she was looking at those present to
whom it referred, with a painful expression and tears in her eyes), but
you
devout
souls,
I desire to illuminate with a new light. Pray that my
prayer may meet open hearts, that I may be able to illuminate them with
the strength of faith and open the ways of love and hope. Be
persevering. I will be with you."
According to Mirjana, Our Lady blessed all those present and all
religious articles brought for blessing.
Apparition
to Mirjana - May 2, 2008
Mirjana's apparition today began at 9:07 AM and went on for about 5
minutes. Mirjana could not say whether Our Lady was happy or sad. After
the apparition, Mirjana transmitted the following message from Our
Lady:
“Dear children! By God’s will I am here with you in
this
place. I desire for you to open your hearts to me and to accept me as a
mother. With my love I will teach you simplicity of life and richness
of mercy and I will lead you to my Son. The way to Him can be difficult
and painful but do not be afraid, I will be with you. My hands will
hold you to the very end, to the eternal joy; therefore do not be
afraid to open yourselves to me. Thank you.”
Our Lady also said: “Pray for priests. My Son gave them to you as a
gift.”
Mirjana's
Apparition of April 2, 2008
Our Lady appeared to the visionary Mirjana Soldo at 9 AM this morning
at the Cenacolo Community in Medjugorje. Our Lady gave the following
message:
"Dear children! Also today, as I am with you in the
great love of God, I desire to ask you: Are you
with me? Is your heart open for me? Do you permit me to purify and
prepare it for my Son? My children, you are chosen because, in your
time, the great grace of God descended on earth. Do not hesitate to
accept it. Thank you."
After the apparition, Mirjana said, "Our
Lady blessed all of us and all religious articles. And while she was
leaving, behind her in the blueness, I was able to see a wonderful,
warm light."
The "blueness" of which Mirjana speaks is not unique in her
apparitions. In a video interview we conducted with her, Mirjana said, "During
the
apparition
I don’t see anybody else. I cannot feel anything around
me. I can see only her and everything else is blue, like the sky.
I can hear only her."
We hesitate to speculate as to the source of the "wonderful, warm
light";
after all, Our Lady's messages are simple and direct so as to not
require further explanation. Perhaps, however, Our Lady's own words in
today's message give the answer, when she said, "I am with you in
the great love of God."
*Queen of Peace Productions will post video of this apparition (and
other recent apparitions) soon.

exclusive interviews with her, at our newest website: MedjugorjeVideo.com
Archbishop
of
Sarajevo:
Medjugorje does not come within our competence
In the Vecernji list of March 21, 2008, Ivan Tolj
published an
interview with Cardinal Vinko Puljić, Archbishop of Sarajevo.
Question: the recently published interview with the Cardinal Tarcisio
Bertone, the Secretary of the Holy See, that the case Medjugorje should
be re-examined, inspired various speculations. Has the Bishop’s
Conference of Bosnia and Herzegovina discussed this matter, and is it
true that Medjugorje shall be officially examined once again?
Cardinal Puljic’s answer: "Our BC (Bishop's Conference)
has not discussed this matter, because the phenomenon of Medjugorje
does not come within our competence. At the moment when the Holy See
takes the decision and gives a task, we shall think about what to do.
This is why it is not necessary to speculate, unless concrete
instructions come. After the work of the Commission, the BC has already
decided to accompany the phenomenon pastorally. This is nothing new,
but the implementation of the first decision of the BC about the
phenomenon Medjugorje.”

Our
Lady's Annual Apparition to Mirjana - March 18, 2008
After receiving the tenth secret
on Christmas Day in 1982, the
visionary Mirjana was told by Our Lady that she would experience an
apparition every year on March 18, which is also Mirjana's birthday.
Today, thousands of pilgrims gathered at the Cenacolo Community in
Medjugorje to be present with Mirjana. The apparition lasted for
approximately seven minutes.
After the apparition, Mirjana said: "I
have never seen Our Lady address us in this manner. She extended her
hands towards us and with her hands extended in this way, she said:
'Dear children, today I extend my hands towards you. Do not be afraid
to accept them. They desire to give you love and peace and to help you
in salvation. Therefore, my children, receive them. Fill my heart with
joy and I will lead you towards holiness. The way on which I lead you
is difficult and full of temptations and falls. I will be with you and
my hands will hold you. Be persevering so that, at the end of the way,
we can all together, in joy and love, hold the hands of my Son. Come
with me; fear not. Thank you.'"

Our Lady's Message to
Mirjana - March 2, 2008
"Dear children! I implore you, especialy at this
lenten time, to
respond to God's goodness because He chose you and sent me among you.
Be purified of sins and in Jesus, my Son, recognize the sacrifice of
atonement for the sins of the entire world. May He be the meaning of
your life and may your life become service to the Divine love of my
Son. Thank you my children!"
According to Mirjana, Our Lady blessed all those present and all the
religious articles brought for blessing. She called us anew to pray for
our shepards.
Our
Lady's Message to Mirjana - February 2, 2008
Visionary Mirjana Soldo experiences apparitions of Our Lady on the 2nd
of every month. This is the message that was given to her on February
2nd, 2008:
“Dear children! I am with you. As a mother, I am
gathering
you, because I desire to erase from your hearts what I see now. Accept
the love of my Son and erase fear, pain, suffering and disappointment
from your heart. I have chosen you in a special way to be a light of
the love of my Son. Thank you.”
Online
video and report and Kibeho Rwanda
Queen of Peace Productions recently filmed in Kibeho, Rwanda.
We are working on a new documentary video about the Church-approved
apparitions that took place there in the 80's, starting just five
months after the Medjugorje apparitions began.
The following is the message given to Mirjana Soldo today during her
apparition:
"Dear children! With all the strength of my heart, I
love you and
give myself to you. As a mother fights for her children, I pray for you
and fight for you. I ask you not to be afraid to open yourselves, so as
to be able to love with the heart and give yourselves to others. The
more that you do this with the heart, the more you will receive and the
better you will understand my Son and His gift to you. May everyone
recognise you through the love of my Son and through me. Thank you."
Mirjana reported that Our Lady also requested prayers and fasting for
our shepherds (priests).

Our Lady's message to
Mirjana -
December 2, 2007
According to Mirjana, "Our Lady was very sad. All the time her eyes
were filled with tears."
She gave this message:
"Dear children! Today, while I am looking at your
hearts, my heart is filled with pain and trepitadion. My children, stop
for a moment and look into your hearts. Is my Son, your God, truly in
the first place? Are His commandments truly the measure of your life? I
am warning you again: without faith there is neither nearness of God
nor the word of God which is the light of salvation and the light of
common sense."
Mirjana added: "I painfully asked Our Lady not to leave us and not to
take her hands away from us. She painfully smiled at my request and
left. This time Our Lady did not say: 'Thank you.' She blessed all of
us and all religious articles."
Our Lady's message to
Mirjana -
November 2, 2007
“Dear children! Today I call you to open your heart to
the
Holy Spirit and to permit Him to transform you. My children, God is the
immeasurable good and therefore, as a Mother, I implore you to pray,
pray, pray, fast and hope that it is possible to attain that good,
because love is born of that good. The Holy Spirit will reinforce that
‘good’ in you and you will be able to call God your Father.
Through this exalted love, you will sincerely come to love all people
and, through God, consider them brothers and sisters. Thank you.”
Mirjana reported that while Our Lady was giving her blessing, she said,
“On the way on which I lead you to my Son, those who
represent Him walk beside me.”
Our Lady's message to
Mirjana -
October 2, 2007
The visionary Mirjana Soldo experienced an apparition of Mary today,
October 2, 2007, and this is the message she was given:
"Dear children, I call you to accompany me in my
mission of God with
an open heart and complete trust. The way on which I lead you, to God,
is difficult but persevering and in the end we will all rejoice in God.
Therefore, my children, do not stop praying for the gift of faith. Only
through faith will the Word of God be light in this darkness which
desires to envelop us. Do not be afraid, I am with you. Thank you."
Mirjana described that, at the end of the apparition, she saw an
intense, strong light as Heaven was opening and Our Lady entered into
Heaven through that light.
Our
Lady's message to Mirjana -
September 2, 2007
Our Lady appeared to the visionary Mirjana
this morning. She gave the
following message and once again spoke of "signs":
"Dear
children! In this time of God's signs, do not be afraid because I am
with you. The great love of God sends me to lead you to salvation. Give
me your simple hearts, purified by fasting and prayer. Only in the
simplicity of your hearts is your salvation. I will be with you and
will lead you. Thank you."
Our Lady blessed everyone and all of the religious articles.
Release
of
new
DVD about the apparition at Knock, Ireland
August 10,
2007 - Queen of Peace Productions and
writer/director
Sean Patrick Bloomfield has released a new DVD that showcases the
miracles and holy shrines of Ireland. The title is Miracles of
Ireland: Apparition at Knock.
Fifteen people from the village of Knock, Ireland had a profound
experience on the rainy night of August 21, 1879.
In a vision lasting about three hours, the witnesses saw an apparition
of the Virgin Mary, St. Joseph, St. John, a choir of angels and a lamb
on an altar.
Nothing was said during the apparition, but the symbolism was profound.
Irish theologian William Anthony Thomas gives powerful interpretations
of the vision, including one shocking reason as to why the Bible held
by St. John was opened to the apocalyptic Book of Revelations.
"One possible interpretation would be that we have entered into the
last realm of human history, into the end times,” Thomas said in an
interview.
Aside from the apparition at Knock, Ireland is rich with stunning
natural beauty, warm people and a profound ancient Christian history.
Miracles of Ireland follows in the footsteps of St. Patrick, St. Ciaran
and Pope John Paul II.
The new DVD can be purchased at MaryShop.com.

Our
Lady's Message to Mirjana - August 02, 2007
"Dear
children! Today I look in your hearts and looking at them my heart
seizes with pain. My children! I ask of you unconditional, pure love
for God. You will know that you are on the right path when you will be
on earth with your body and with your soul always with God. Through
this unconditional and pure love you will see my Son in every person.
You will feel oneness in God. As a Mother I will be happy because I
will have your holy and unified hearts. My children, I will have your
salvation. Thank you."
According to eyewitnesses: At the start of the
apparition, Our
Lady showed Mirjana "what is waiting for us if there is not the
holiness in our hearts and our brotherly union in Christ." Mirjana
described it by allegedly saying, “It was not nice at all.”
She asked us to pray for our shepherds because without them "there is
no unity."

Our
Lady's
message to Mirjana - July 2nd 2007
"Dear
children! In the great love of God, I come to you today to lead you on
the way of humility and meekness. The first station on that way, my
children, is confession. Reject your arrogance and kneel down before my
Son. Comprehend, my children, that you have nothing and you can do
nothing. The only thing that is yours and what you possess is sin. Be
cleansed and accept meekness and humility. My Son could have won with
strength, but He chose meekness, humility and love. Follow my Son and
give me your hands so that, together, we may climb the mountain and
win. Thank you."
Again Our Lady spoke about the importance of priests and their blessing.
According to Mirjana, Our Lady was referring to the spiritual climb
when she spoke of "climbing the mountain."
Through the visionaries, Our Lady has stated that Medjugorje is the
continuation of Fatima, and this has been particularly evident in the
latest messages to Mirjana, which seem to mirror the secret of Fatima,
Portugal.
In 1917 at Fatima, the Blessed Virgin Mary gave the visionaries a
secret that prophesied the World War II, the rise of Communism and
persecution of the Church. The last part of the secret was released by
the Vatican and contains the following image of climbing a mountain, in
the words of the late Sr. Lucia:
"...Other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious going up a
steep mountain,
at the top of which there was a big Cross of rough-hewn trunks as of a
cork-tree with the bark; before reaching there the Holy Father passed
through a big city half in ruins and half trembling with halting step,
afflicted with pain and sorrow, he prayed for the souls of the corpses
he met on his way; having reached the top of the mountain, on his knees
at the foot of the big Cross he was killed by a group of soldiers who
fired bullets and arrows at him, and in the same way there died one
after another the other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious, and
various lay people of different ranks and positions. Beneath the two
arms of the Cross there were two Angels each with a crystal aspersorium
in his hand, in which they gathered up the blood of the Martyrs and
with it sprinkled the souls that were making their way to God."
Not only does it seem that this part of the secret is related to the
July 2nd message from Our Lady, it also could be seen as a description
of Cross Mountain, which towers over Medjugorje. Climbing Cross
Mountain is often seen as a means of reconciliation and penance by the
millions of pilgrims and priests who visit Medjugorje.
Last month in the message given through Mirjana, Our Lady said "Through
you,
my
heart will triumph." This seems related to the second part
of the Fatima secret, in which she said: "In the end, my Immaculate
Heart will triumph."
It seems evident that, especially now, Our Lady is highlighting the
connections between Fatima and Medjugorje.
Watch a full-length apparition experienced by visionary
Mirjana, then hear the message given by Our Lady, plus commentary from
Mirjan.
The following is the
transcript of Mirjana's comments regarding the medical testing she has
undergone.
Q: Has Our Lady spoken about the new Church commission studying
Medjugorje?
A: Personally I have never asked Our Lady about this. The way I thought
was: anything that can help people to understand better and to accept
her messages, I am ready to do it. It is not easy always to do it. For
example, the latest commission that we had, I was the one who was
tested and it took over two days. There were over a thousand questions
from the psychiatrists and machinery all over my body. And an
interesting thing happened: they put me on a lie detector, you know,
like in American movies, and they also hypnotized me when they put me
on the lie detector. Under hypnosis they brought me back to the
apparition. So in order to make a long story short, because it took two
days of investigation, their conclusion was: before my eyes, I have
something supernatural, and it is beautiful, according to the way my
body was reacting. They as experts cannot say whether I see God or
Jesus or angels, but it is something beautiful and supernatural. And if
that can help and give a hand for the people to accept Medjugorje, then
I am ready to do it.
Q: Was the commission established by the Vatican, or the local diocese?
A: I really do not know exactly, because whatever the priests
tell us to do, we just do it. I've never asked who was really standing
behind it because it does not make any difference to me. Our friars,
our priests, were for that, so I did it.
"Dear children! Also in this difficult time God's love
sends me to
you. My children, do not be afraid, I am with you. With complete trust
give me your hearts, that I may help you to recognize the signs of the
time in which you live. I will help you to come to know the love of my
Son. I will triumph through you. Thank you."
Our Lady blessed everyone present. Once again She reminded us to pray
for priests and that a priest's blessing is a blessing from Her son,
Jesus.
Queen of Peace Productions is currently in Medjugorje filming. We
filmed Mirjana's apparition in High Definition video (it was beautiful
as always), and we will bring that footage to you in the near future.
Monthly Apparition to Mirjana - May 2, 2007
"Dear children! Today I come to you with a motherly
desire for you
to give me your hearts. My children, do this with complete trust and
without fear. In your hearts, I will put my Son and His mercy. Then, my
children, you will look at the world around you with different eyes.
You will see your neighbour. You will feel his pain and suffering. You
will not turn your head away from those who suffer, because my Son
turns His head away from those who do so. Children, do not hesitate."
Our Lady blessed everyone and all the religious articles.
Monthly Apparition to Mirjana - April 2, 2007
Our Lady appeared to the visionary Mirjana at 9:09 AM and the
apparition lasted until 9:14 AM.
Mirjana was given the following message:
"Dear children, do not be of a hard heart towards the
mercy of God,
which has been pouring out upon you for so much of your time. In this
special time of prayer, permit me to transform your hearts that you may
help me to have my Son resurrect in all hearts, and that my heart may
triumph. Thank you."
Our Lady added: "Your Shepherds need your prayers."
Our Lady blessed everyone present and all religious articles. She then
once again emphasized that She gives us her Motherly blessing, but the
greatest of all blessings is from a priest.
Annual
Apparition
to Mirjana - March 18, 2007
"Dear children, I come to you as a Mother with gifts.
I come with
love and mercy. Dear children, mine is a big heart. In it, I desire all
of your hearts, purified by fasting and prayer. I desire that, through
love, our hearts may triumph together. I desire that through that
triumph you may see the real Truth, the real Way and the real Life. I
desire that you may see my Son. Thank you."
Our Lady blessed everyone present and all of the religious articles.
She emphasized that her blessing is only a Motherly blessing and She
asked for daily prayers for those whom "my Son has chosen and blessed."
Mirjana stated that she thought Our Lady was referring to priests.
Our
Lady's
message to Mirjana on March 2, 2007
The visionary Mirjana reported that Our Lady was "resolute" and said
the following:
"Today I will speak to you about what you have
forgotten: Dear
Children, My name is Love. That I am among you for so much of your time
is love, because the Great Love sends me. I am asking the same of you.
I am asking for love in your families. I am asking that you recognize
love in your brother. Only in this way, through love, will you see the
face of the Greatest Love. May fasting and prayer be your guiding star.
Open your hearts to love, namely, salvation. Thank you.

Our
Lady's
message to Mirjana on September 2, 2006
The visionary Mirjana reported that Our Lady said the following:
"You know that we have been gathering for me to help
you come to know the love of God."
She (Our Lady) then spoke about the future and said:
"I am gathering you under my motherly mantle to help
you to come to
know God's love and His greatness. My children, God is great. Great are
His works. Do not deceive yourselves that you can do anything without
Him. Not even to take a step, my children. Instead set out and witness
His love! I am with you. Thank you."
Monthly apparition to Mirjana in Medjugorje - August
2, 2006
According to a report from pilgrimage guide Miki Musa, the monthly
apparition to Mirjana took place on August 2, as usual, at the Cenacolo
community in Medjugorje.
According to Miki: "The
Youth Festival was opened last night, but the official program started
this morning. Before the begining of the morning prayer and the morning
program behind the Church, thousands of pilgrims came to Cenacolo to
participate in Our Lady's apparition to Mirjana. I have never seen so
many people over there."
Mirjana reported that Our Lady
gave the following message: "Dear
children! In these peaceless times I am coming to you to show you the
way to peace. I love you with an immeasurable love and I desire for you
to love each other and to see in everyone my Son – the
immeasurable love. The way to peace leads solely and only through love.
Give your hand to me, your mother, and permit me to lead you. I am the
Queen of peace. Thank you.
Mirjana added: "Again, after a long time, I saw the sky opening and
then a sign of a Cross, a heart and the sun."
