Medjugorje has been called the ‘spiritual heart of the world’, by Pope Saint John Paul II. When Our Lady calls you to her shrine, she calls you to prayer. There she has reminded us all of five essentials for our journey through life to God. Praying the Rosary daily with the heart, fasting twice a week, monthly confession, Sunday Mass and to read the Bible every day. Fundamentally though, a pilgrimage to Medjugorje will deepen your love of God in Mary’s school of prayer. Here she continues to appear, to encourage the world to return to God. Allow yourself a week of healing and inspiration close to the Mother of God, and Queen of Peace.
