Medjugorje Pilgrimages
Medjugorje is one of the fastest growing Catholic Shrines in the world and a spiritual treasure chest. Since apparitions of the Virgin Mary to six young children were reported in June 1981, tens of millions of people from around the world have travelled to the village of Medjugorje, Bosnia-Herzegovina, formerly Yugoslavia.
What draws them there in the millions? Some want to see for themselves whether the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Peace, is appearing while others - mostly repeat pilgrims - long to experience the grace and mercy of God that is found in great abundance there. Pilgrims often say that it is the closest place to heaven on earth. The "Medjugorje experience" is not something that can be properly explained or quantified in human terms. To fully experience it you must go on pilgrimage there. Medjugorje is a sign of God's love and mercy to our troubled and sinful world in this day and age and a gift to the Church.
