WELCOME TO MEDJUGORJE

ATTENTION If you want to hear the hymn of Our Lady of Medjugorje, "We come to you, dear Mother", written by Fr Stanko Vasilj , who died some years ago, through the speakers.

Hymn of Medjugorje

We come to you Dear Mother,

from all parts of the world;

we bring you our problems

and with them our desires.

Chorus;

Look on us, console us,

Lay your hands upon us;

Intercede for us to your Son.

Mother of Peace, pray for us.

The whole church looks to you,

the last star of salvation;

purify us, embrace us,

with all our hearts we pray you.

Your little Bijakovo

and all Medugorje,

together spread your glory

and exult your name.

For all the love dear Mother

you have poured out to us here,

we promise you in the future

to be better than we were.

I greet you with our greeting which was forbidden during communism:

"Praised be Jesus and Mary"

On the following pages, I will try to present to you some facts connected to Medjugorje which for some reason have been left unsaid, which however are important to be known

For those who may become upset at the revelation of this information, I would tell them, "Words that He send from heaven must return with fruit." Our Lady’s messages our some of these words. On the 25th of each month messages are given to the parish and to the world, but there are so many other messages and invitations and recommendations for every season of the year – Lent, Easter, Christmas, anniversary of apparitions, Cross Mountain, etc, and these messages should not be kept hidden. On these pages for the first time we will announce just a few of these messages, and with time, they will be supplemented.

Of course, as our people say, "with God’s help."

ABOUT MEDJUGORJE PARISH – ANSWER TO QUESTIONS THAT PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TO ASK BUT DISCUSSED WITHOUT THE FACTS

Many people are shocked when they see many beautiful houses in Medjugorje, even the visionaries’ houses. They do not even think about the amount of money borrowed and the amount of land sold for one house to be built, how much blood, sweat and tears went into working with pilgrims, renovating their existing houses or building new ones.

They forget that these people lived fifty years under communism and these people never sold their faith and they missed out on many things so that they could be able to go to church, to get married in the church, and to baptise their children. Many of them went to Germany, USA and Australia and they worked hard for many years for their families because they did not want to serve that abnormal system, which wanted to destroy the right of a person’s belief. Those people who stayed at home mostly worked with tobacco. The little children, as well, getting up at 4am in the morning to work. He who does not know what is "furadan" (poison used in the war) with which the tobacco had to be treated. He who has not done this does not know what a hard life is. Those people felt all this. In the end they sold all the tobacco for such a low price, because the communist government set the price, which was very low.

These people decided to believe in God and serve God.

In 1933, these people carried the material to build the cross on top of Cross Mountain, formerly known as Mt Sipovac, on their back, to thank Jesus for dying on the cross for us. The people built an abnormally large church (abnormal for their needs) , next to the old church that was sinking, even though its foundations were built on solid rock. Is not all this a sign that God was preparing this place for the millions of pilgrims that would come here in the future?

Why was Saint James, the protector of pilgrims, chosen to the patron saint of the parish? Why not Saint Anthony, who this parish loves so much? If Heaven landed here, should we have just looked at the pilgrims come and go? But the millions of pilgrims that are coming and will come have to sleep somewhere. I think that laziness is a big sin and whoever is able to work, it would be a sin for him to not work, to improve himself and his family. I would like to ask those who think like this, "What would you do if Our Lady appeared in you town?" I believe that you would not just take the rosary and sit in front of your house. We did not ask Our Lady to appear here. God sent Her here. Even if Our Lady had not appeared here, these people would have remained faithful to God and Our Lady as they are now.

Here as in old times, there is no divorce and no abortion. Still here, each family has 3, 4 or 5 children. Everyone knows that Herzegovina is improving the birth rate of Croatia, which after God and the family, they love the most. These people are capable and ingenious in all situations, in war and in peace. I admire my Croatian people.

BECAUSE I WANT TO SEE HER IN YOU

I entered into the church one day

And I asked Him with a heart full of trust

"Why did you choose from all the places on Earth to remain in the Holy Eucharist?

You who are God did not find another way to bring and leave Mary to us"

Mother of all of us who are travelling

It appeared to me that in the silence He answered

"I did not bring her because I want to see her again in you, even if you are not without sin

My love will make you clean

And you will spread your arms and motherly heart to mankind

Who, like before, is thirsty for His God and mother.

On you is to relieve the pain and dry the tears

Sing the litanies and see yourself in them"

Chiara Ljubic
