Our Lady's Unfulfilled Wish
It happened in February 13, 1982.
The visionary Marija was going to school
in Mostar.
On Apparition Hill on the place of
apparition, same up, not far from today place of apparition, (where the visionaryes had
apparition third day), in the presence of a friend, Draga Ivankovic and Mr Marinko
Ivankovic, Marija had an apparition in which Our Lady requested that at
the place of the third apparition, which occurred on 26 June 1981, that a chapel is built.
The following day, just by accident, I saw
Marija. She was excited to tell me about this. Of course I felt that we should listen and
fulfil Our Lady's wish, but I did not know how the chapel should look like,
and I was worried because the communist police has forbidden the people to go to
Apparition Hill. If it has to be made quickly from rocks and a statue, I would have been
ready to do it myself. I asked Marija about this and she said that she would ask
Our Lady.
She then knelt down and had an
apparition where Our Lady showed her visually how the chapel should look like.
The following day, I tried to initiate the
building. Many people said that the police would be so happy for us to start building a
new chapel, because the government owned that land.
This was 18 years ago. Many people know
about this wish of Our Lady, including the parish priest, but nobody is doing anything
about it, and I wonder why? The war is over, and the parish can build on Apparition Hill
and Cross Mountain.
Is it because of the bishop?
On the 27th of February,
Bernadette received a message from Our Lady, who expressed a vision of her wishes. The
message instructed the local priest to build a chapel. At first, this particular
parish priest, "Peyramale" from Lourdes, frightened Bernadette as she knew that
he was not a true believer in the apparitions. However, she overcame this fear, though
quite nervous at the idea of having to see him, and she told him about Our
Lady’s wish: to have a chapel built so that believers could attend in procession and
honour Our Lady. Again, the priest strongly reprimanded Bernadette for this
rather strange request. Peyramale, still doubtful, asked Bernadette, "Which Lady has
actually asked you to do this?" Bernadette could not answer him as she
herself did not know what to name her experience. The "lady" had not
specifically introduced herself, nor had she given herself a "title".
The priest responded, quite cynically that a "lady with out a name could not expect
such a great thing to be done". On the 25th of March, Our Lady told
Bernadette that she was Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception. Bernadette, being
a simple village girl, did not quite understand the full meaning of this title. She knew
that it was very important to remember the name, as the priest would question her again if
she should talk to him about this apparition once more. She repeated the name over and
over again to herself so as not to forget its correct name, as she ran to the priest in
excitement to tell him of her news. Having reached the priest, and repeating what Our Lady
has told her, she watched as the priest turned pale. He then realised the full
significance of what Bernadette had experienced. Only few learned priests could possibly
have an understanding of the concept of the "immaculate conception". It was not
an expression the a simple village girl could make up, let alone understand. Faced with
this realisation, Peryramele instantly became a believer and never doubted the
authenticity of Bernadette’s messages again.
Bishop Zanic, who is now retired, said in
1981, "People, believe, because this is true." and "if this is
the work of man, it will destroy itself, but if it is the work of God, no one will be able
to stop it."
Since then, 18 years have passed, and this
work is still continuing. Not communism and their police, nor hostile bishops, nor so many
in the world who wanted to destroy Our Lady's work, nor the devil, have not and will not
destroy this.
The reason for this writing is to wake
up the conscience of those responsible – the whole parish including priests.
1999, May, 20.
I saw her by the church and we talked
about chapel!
I just wanted to confirm the things that i
wrote about the story of the chapel, if it is correct or not. She confirmed that
everything is correct except the part where the chapel should be built!The
place where Our Lady wished the chapel to be built is on the place of the third day of
apparition, which occurred on 26.06.1981.
Our Lady expresed this wish during one
apparition on 13.02.1982 and during this apparition another 2 people were present: Draga
Ivankovic and Marinko Ivankovic. I was not present during this apparition but during
another one when Our Lady described haw She wished the chapel to look like.
Maria told me one new information
that Summer 1998, Marinko Ivankovic asked her "Maria when are we going to start to
build chapel, I whish to be alaive when is finished". After that Maria asked Our Lady
the same question. Our Lady answered "Not yet, it is still not the right
time"!
We all have been aware of thise all this
years. First problem was Communism than, wars. But at list I am glad that people finally
know about this Our Ladys wish. There were so many books writen about apparitions but
nobady had ever mentioned anything about this Our Ladys wish.
Maria described to me the place wher Our
Lady wanted the chapel to be built. It is placed near the 4th station of theSorrowful
Mysteries on apparition Hill, above and to the right. It is surrounded by bush.
Our
Lady said to her,"
It is necessary for this place to be on Apparition hill, so
pilgrims can pray in silence"! Maria told me that we will talk more
about this in June when she cames back from Italy. She wants to meet with me, Draga and
Marinko, so that all this abouth the chapel may be more completed.
