Archbishop Allessandro D’Errico, Apostolic Nuncio to Bosnia and Herzegovina, gave statement about Medjugorje on March 18th at the end of 48th Bishop’s Conference of Bosnia and Herzegovina. In the statement broadcasted by Radio Mir Medjugorje, he amongst other things said: “Whenever I would meet Holy Father, he was always very much interested in Medjugorje. The visionary Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo had daily apparitions from June 24th 1981 to December 25th 1982. During the last daily apparition, Our Lady gave her the 10th secret, and told her that she would appear to her once a year, on the 18th of March. It has been this way through the years. Several thousand pilgrims gathered in prayer of the Rosary at the 'Blue Cross'. The apparition lasted from 13:50 to 13:54.

The 17th International Meeting for Leaders of Peace Centres and Medjugorje Prayer and Charity groups will be held in Medjugorje from the 28th of Februaryto the 4th of March 2010. The theme of the gathering is: Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life!" On Ash Wednesday, February 17, Catholic Church entered period of Lent, fourty days long period of preparation for Easter. What is important about this period of Lent is mediatation on Christ's passion, especially during the devotions of Way of the Cross. The schedule of Way of the Cross in the church of St. James is: - Fridays: 2 p.m. on the Cross Mountain, and in the church after evening Holy Mass - Sundays: 10.30 a.m., before central Holy Mass, and after evening Holy Mass at 6 p.m. On the day when we remember beatified Cardinal Alojzije Stepinac, February 10, we prayed in Međugorje parish for all murdered Franciscans who were born in Međugorje parish: Fr. Križan Galić, Fr. Jozo Bencun, Fr. Marko Dragičević, Fr. Mariofil Sivrić, Fr. Grgo Vasilj and Fr. Jenko Vasilj, who were amongst those 66 priests from Herzegovinian Franciscan Province, brutally murdered by Partisans during the II World War and at the very end of the same war. Karlo Lovrić celebrated Holy Mass at 6 p.m. in parish church of St. James, and there were also ten other priests that concelebrated with him. Parish priest, Fr. Petar Vlašić spoke before the Holy Mass and said that there isn’t a single family in Međugorje parish that did not have at least one person killed during that period. Karlo, in his homily, said amongst the other things, the following: “We should be praying for them, but at the same time, we should be praying to them. They were not frightened, they did not deny our Church, and on the contrary, they gave their lives for Jesus and for their country. We thank them for that!” (photos) Vocal group “Nostalgija” from Zagreb came to Međugorje and with their harmony singing, made celebration of evening Holy Mass in the church of St. James even more special and beautiful. They performed “Holy Mass in Harmony-Singing” from the author Živko Ključe, Opuzen, 1955, which this men vocal group practiced and performed for the first time in 1998. These well-practiced men voices performed following songs: “Bliže, o bliže Bože moj”, “Signore delle cime”, “Divici Mariji”, song arranged by Šime Marović with original verses from one of the most famous Croatian renaissance writers, Marko Marulić, and at the end they sang famous “Ave Maria”. (photos) Number of Holy Communions: 41.000 Number of priests that concelebrated at Holy Masses: 866 (27 per day) On Sunday, January 31, we remembered 2nd International Day of Prayer for Peace in Holy Land, and Fr. Miljenko Šteko was the main celebrant during the Holy Mass celebrated for that intention in the church of St. James at 6 p.m. Međugorje, famous place of peace and reconciliation, was one of 1000 places throughout the world where faithful gathered to pray for peace in Holy Land. In the message of support, that is read on that day, Monsignor Mario Toso, Secretary of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, emphasises how peace is always gift of God and encourages participants: Persevere in prayer for peace! Međugorje, along with Jerusalem, Bethlehem, Gaza, Rome, Moscow, Paris, London, New York and other towns of Europe, Asia, Africa and America, accepted the invitation of associations Young for Life from Jerusalem and Papaboys from Rome, actively participating in this whole day prayer programme opened by Fr. Pierbattista Pizzaballa, Custos of Holy Land. On Wednesday, January 27, Međugorje woke up under a snow layer, and children were the ones that were most excited because of that. Peace is part of Međugorje everyday reality, and under snow layer it is even more intense. This all gave unique opportunity to many photographers to shoot some of the unrepeatable scenes of Međugorje countryside. (photos)

Trideset četiri hodočasnika, pravoslavne vjeroispovijesti, iz različitih dijelova Izraela, stigli su u Međugorje 11. svibnja 2012. Još neki će im se pridružiti u idućim danima. Susreli smo ih na početku hodočašća. ''Došli smo kući, svojoj Majci. Svi smo mi kršćani i svi smo mi sjedinjeni s Bogom. Nema razlika u raju. Mi se ovdje osjećamo kao da nam je mjesto ovdje'' - kazali su hodočasnici iz Izraela koji u Međugorju ostaju 10 dana. Hodočasnici u Međugorje pristižu na različite načine. Hodočasnik na biciklu i nije osobita novost, međutim kad se radi o čovjeku koji je prešao sedamdeset godina, onda je to ipak nesvakidašnji događaj. Radi se o 71-godišnjem Nijemcu, Helmutu Kϋhnu koji je iz sjevernoga djela Njemačke stigao u Međugorje biciklom. Uz hodočasnike iz dvadesetak država svijeta, novinari radiopostaje „Mir“ Međugorje susreli su ovih dana i one iz Paname. Lorena Varela, supruga potpredsjednika Paname, drugi je put ovdje. Za Međugorje je čula preko svoje majke koja je oduvijek željela posjetiti Međugorje, ali hodočašće nije bilo moguće radi teške bolesti. Umrla je prošle godine. Nedugo nakon smrti majke, Lorena sa svojom sestrom odlučila hodočastiti. Broj podijeljenih sv. pričesti: 183.500 Broj svećenika koncelebranata: 3417 (113 dnevno) Ljetni raspored molitvenog programa u Međugorju počinje 1. svibnja. Molitva krunice u župnoj crkvi je u 18, a sv. Misa u 19 sati, a nakon Mise slijedi uobičajeni molitveni raspored ovisno o danu u tjednu. Klanjanje je srijedom i subotom u 22 sata. Pobožnost Križnog puta na Križevcu petkom je u 16, a molitva krunice na Podbrdu nedjeljom također u 16 sati. U mnoštvu hodočasnika koji ovih dana borave u Međugorju, novinari radiopostaje Mir Međugorje susreli su i skupinu iz Grčke. Dovela ih je Chiara Perfetti iz Atene. Svi su, osim Chiare, pravoslavni vjernici. Chiara je u listopadu prošle godine prvi put u Međugorje došla s mužem i dvoje prijatelja. Kaže da je imala san. Za nekoliko dana nešto je provjeravala na internetu, i vidjela je ono što je vidjela u snu, međugorski vanjski oltar s bijelim Gospinim kipom. U Međugorju u ovom uskrsnom vremenu borave mnogi hodočasnici. Ured informacija bilježi veće i manje skupine iz: Engleske, Rumunjske, Francuske, Slovačke, Albanije, Portugala, Njemačke, Italije, Austrije, Mađarske, Libanona, SAD-a, Irske, Portugala, Brazila, Poljske, Meksika, Kanade, Slovenije, Koreje, Belgije, Nizozemske, Španjolske, Ukrajine, Hrvatske te Bosne i Hercegovine. Susreli smo Mariu Peoples, iz Sjeverne Irske. Prvi put je došla u Međugorje 1985. Od 1986. dovodi skupine u Međugorje. I ove se godine za Uskrs u Međugorju okupio veliki broj hodočasnika, koji su u zajedništvu sa župljanima sudjelovali u liturgiji Vazmenoga trodnevlja. Tijekom ovih dana u Međugorju su boravili hodočasnici iz: Koreje, Brazila, Španjolske, Francuske, Italije, Njemačke, Portugala, Ukrajine, Slovačke, Libanona, Japana, SAD-a, Irske, Austrije i Rumunjske. (slike) "Mir vama! Kao što je mene poslao Otac, tako i ja šaljem vas." (Evanđelje po Ivanu 20,21) Svim župljanima, hodočasnicima, prijateljima, dobročiniteljima i svim ljudima dobre volje Sretan i blagoslovljen Uskrs! Župnik i međugorski fratri (slike) Uskrsna cestitka 2012 - Fra Petar Vlasic Veliki Četvrtak, 5. travnja - Ovaj dan, u kojem se Crkva spominje ustanovljenja euharistije i svećeništva, dopušteno je slaviti samo Misu posvete ulja i Misu večere Gospodnje. Misu posvete ulja u Katoličkoj Crkvi slavi samo biskup sa svećenicima u Zbornoj crkvi, odnosno Katedrali. U Međugorju, dakle, toga prijepodneva se ne ispovijeda i nema sv. Misa. Molitva Krunice u međugorskoj župnoj crkvi počinje u 17 sati, a u 18 je svečana sveta Misa Večere Gospodnje. Nakon misnoga slavlja vjernici će imati prigodu za klanjanje i tihu molitvu uz Presveti Sakrament sve do pola noći. Prigoda sa sakrament Ispovijedi je od 16 sati do početka misnoga slavlja. Četrdesetak volontera, članova, simpatizera riječkog prihvatilišta za beskućnike ''Ruže sv. Franje'' boravili su u Međugorju od 31. ožujka do 2.travnja 2012., kako bi zahvalili Kraljici mira za pet godina rada prihvatilišta. Siniša Pucić jedan od volontera u spomenutom prihvatilištu i glavni urednik časopisa ''Ulične svjetiljke'' govorio je za program radiopostaje Mir Međugorje o hodočašću te o prihvatilištu. Cilj rada prihvatilišta je ne samo pružiti najpotrebnijima prenoćište, nego ih prije svega osposobiti za ponovnu integraciju u društvo, ovisno o psihofizičkim i drugim sposobnostima korisnika, provodeći s njima program radne terapije i rehabilitacije. ''Hodočašće je dobra prilika onima koji nam se prvi put pridruže upoznati ih dobro s našim djelovanjem, a Međugorje je uvijek svima draga lokacija za hodočašće''- kazao je Siniša. U Međugorju je 31. ožujka održana duhovna obnova časnih sestara franjevki iz Hrvatske i BiH koje rade u zdravstvenim ili socijalnim ustanovama na kojoj je sudjelovalo 40-ak sestara. Tema je bila: ''Patnja, otajstveni Božji govor'', a duhovnu obnovu je predvodio dr. fra Miljenko Šteko. Jedna od sudionica obnove s. Andrea Nazlić, školska sestra franjevka koja radi u splitskoj bolnici je kazala: ''Djelujemo s ljudima koji pate, zato smo izabrali ovu temu. Vrijeme je da se saberemo i o tome razmišljamo. Ovo mjesto nas posebno vrati k sebi''. Broj podijeljenih sv. pričesti: 92.300 Broj svećenika koncelebranata: 1739 (56 dnevno) Davni običaj u mostarsko duvanjskoj biskupiji je da se čitav tjedan od Glušnice, tj. 5.korizmene nedjelje do Cvjetnice, posveti molitvi protiv psovke u našem narodu. Svi župljani i hodočasnici u Međugorju pozvani su da kroz ovaj tjedan sve svoje molitvene nakane, osobito Križni put u petak, prikažu Bogu kao zadovoljštinu za uvrede koje mu se psovkom nanose. Na Cvjetnicu ili Nedjelju Muke Gospodnje započinje Veliki tjedan, vrhunac priprave za svetkovinu Uskrsnuća Gospodinova. U Međugorju liturgija Cvjetnice 1. travnja započinje na temeljima stare župne crkve u 10,30. Nakon toga u procesiji ide se u župnu crkvu sv. Jakova gdje će se slaviti sv. Misa Muke Gospodnje. Misna slavlja u crkvi su i u 7, 8 te 18 sati. Na svim misama bit će blagoslov grančica. Od 14 sati molit će se krunica na Podbrdu. Dan prije Cvjetnice, u subotu 31. ožujka u međugorskoj župnoj crkvi slavit će se u 18 sati sveta Misa za mlade. Međugorska Frama će svojom pjesmom uveličati ovo misno slavlje. U dvodnevni posjet Međugorju, u ponedjeljak 26. ožujka 2012., došao je trener Manchester Cityja, Roberto Mancini sa svojom obitelji. Sudjelovao je na molitveno liturgijskome programu, obišao međugorska molitvena mjesta i razgovarao s međugorskim franjevcima. U informativnome centru Mir Međugorje održao je i konferenciju za novinare na kojoj je govorio o razlozima posjeta Međugorju, te nekim detaljima iz svijeta športa. Na početku je kazao kako je ovaj posjet Međugorju ispunjenje jedne davno donesene odluke. Prvi put je o Međugorju čuo od jednog svećenika iz Genove, prije više od 25 godina. ''Vjerujem da se radi o jednom posebnom mjestu, doista sam sretan'' - kazao je Roberto Mancini. Govoreći o značenju duhovnosti u svakodnevnom životu, te nogometnoj, odnosno trenerskoj karijeri, Mancini je istaknuo kako vjera ima veliko značenje u njegovom životu. Na kraju je naglasio kako planira ponovno doći u Međugorje, jer je ono za njega posebno mjesto.
