Medjugorje For All (A BLOG about Medugorje)

Not so long ago on June 24, 1981 in the tiny village of Medjugorje, Bosnia-Hercegovina, Mary (mother of Jesus)appeared to several young people. She continues her appearances to this day and has come as a gift from God to us. When I first read about this phenomenon, I was both fascinated and doubtful at the same time. Since then I have researched everything I could find about Medjugorje and have been privileged to travel there as a pilgrim.

Although I am a born again Protestant I have a great interest in what has been happening in Medjugorje. After several years of research on the apparitions, I am reaching out to others (people of all faiths and beliefs) who have the same interest. What appears on this blog are stories and articles, mostly borrowed and hopefully accurate, additional comments and thoughts from me about Medjugorje.

More Info...

What is the Blessed Mother saying in her messages from Medjugorje and many other places of apparitions? She is calling all of us to conversion -not just an initial conversion. Conversion is an ongoing thing. Mary wants us to be converted; that word comes from the Latin meaning "to turn". To turn to whom? Mary is calling everyone to turn to Jesus, be with Jesus, walk with Jesus, pray trusting in Jesus. She is calling us to faith stronger than death. What is such faith?

Faith goes way beyond assent to the truth that God has revealed. It is holding on the Jesus. It is being with Jesus. It is accepting that love of Jesus and trying to respond to it however I can. That's faith. That's the faith to which Mary calls us.
