On June 24th 1981, in the quiet hills of Herzegovina, two young girls - Mirjana Dragicevic and Ivanka Ivankovic - encountered a radiant and deeply moving sight upon Crnica Hill. Before them stood a luminous woman clothed in white, gently holding a child in her arms. Overcome with awe and reverence, they withdrew, only to return the following day with four companions. Together, they would come to be known as the six visionaries, united by their encounters on what is now lovingly called Apparition Hill. In the days and years that followed, the visionaries have testified to continued encounters with the Blessed Virgin Mary, whom they know as Our Lady of Medjugorje. Through these experiences, they have shared messages calling the faithful to prayer, conversion, fasting, and peace, along with accounts of entrusted secrets and reflections on the life of Our Lady. Today, Medjugorje is often referred to as the “Lourdes of Bosnia,” a place of profound prayer and spiritual renewal. Each year, countless pilgrims journey there, seeking a deeper relationship with God, the grace of reconciliation, and the maternal guidance of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Confessions are conducted throughout the day in many languages (Medjugorje is well known for this). Talks from one of the visionaries if they are available, Divine Mercy Prayer at 3pm will be in St James church, visit Risen Christ located at the back of the church and pray the Stations of the Cross here if you wish. We can also revisit the Apparition Hill and the Blue Cross where many of Our Lady’s apparitions and healings have taken place.

For your lunch there are many restaurants and cafes to choose from, all at very reasonably priced as well as shops to browse through. Evening dinner at the hotel.
Medjugorje - Surmanci
After breakfast, we leave Medjugorje and drive to the village of Surmanci where we celebrate Mass in the Church of the Merciful Jesus. In the church there is a miraculous icon of Jesus of Mercy. This icon was in the Sanctuary of Divine Mercy in Trento where Ugo Festa was miraculously healed when he prayed before it. It also has a small relic of St Faustina. We return to Medjugorje and have lunch here. Free for the rest of today. Evening dinner at the hotel.

We pray the Stations of the Cross on the way up to the mountain. Please note that to go up the mountain you must be reasonably fit and be very careful as the mountain has rough rocks and stones to tackle.
