Totus Tuus Community organised their annual pilgrimage to Medjugorje from August 8-13. This was one of the most numerous pilgrimages with more than 200 participants of all ages. We began our journey on Monday late in the day and we spent five whole days in Medjugorje. After the morning Holy Mass on Sunday, we began our journey back home.(photos) On Friday, September 1, the timetable of the evening prayer programme is changing in Medjugorje. The new schedule shall remain in force until May 31, the following year. Prayer of Rosary as of September 1 shall begin at 5 pm, while the Holy Mass shall be at 6 pm. After the Holy Mass, the ordinary daily programme shall follow. Many pilgrims from all over the world come to Medjugorje during the summer months and many Croatians are among them too. All those pilgrims arrive here to be spiritually fed before returning to their homes and that is why from July 1 to August 31, there is one additional Holy Mass in Croatian language at 1 pm each day. The first Mary's meals were distributed in Malawi in 2002, but the family MacFarlane-Barrow from Scotland who started this project says that Mary’s Meals are the fruit of Medjugorje. They came here in 1993 for the first time and during the war they were bringing humanitarian help from Scotland and later on, out of this, new global project for the help to the poorest ones, supported by many people throughtout the world, developed from it.

Sixteen Holy Masses were celebrated on either in the church of St. James, Adoration chapel or the White Dome in many different languages.
