Dear Family of Mary!

 

"Little children, I want all of you who have felt the fragrance of holiness through these messages which I am giving you, to carry this fragrance into the world which is hungry for God and for his love." (March 25, 1994)

 

Our pilgrimage is over, and we are all leaving Medjugorje today. The time flew by. Our Lady provided many wonderful experiences and divine appointments for us! It really does seem that we felt the fragrance of holiness these two weeks, through this time of prayer and peace. It is now time to carry that fragrance back to our families and communities where souls are dying for lack of love.

 

Our last day began with the prayer at the Blue Cross with Ivan. Our whole pilgrimage group gathered to pray the Rosary. We were told how the visionaries would go to the spot where the Blue Cross stands to receive Our Lady when they were being chased by the authorities. It was hidden and they could pray their secretly. The had a wooden cross to mark the spot, and one day Ivan decided that the cross needed to be protected from the elements, and so he borrowed some of his dad's paint, which happened to be blue. Thus began the Blue Cross.

Our Rosary with Ivan was so peaceful. Then we had time for quiet prayer at the cross.

The day ended with Holy Mass and Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. What a perfect way to spend our last moments in Medjugorje.

There is nothing like Adoration in Medjugorje.  Thousands of people, silent, gazing upon Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, filled with awe and love.  There is nothing like it!  Only in Medjugorje! 

 

Thank you for taking time to read these reflections about our time in Medjugorje. It has been an honor for me to collect my thoughts and share them with you. You have been in my prayers and will continue to be.

 

Now I am off to Rome!

 

In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
