Jim Caviezel played the main role in Mel Gibson’s movie “The Passion of Christ”, and became known throughout the whole world. The very moving presentation of the scourging and crucifixion of Jesus have permitted the passion of the Lord to become the initiator of many discussions about faith. A Viennese professor of Theology brought the criticism of the movie to the point: “ How can I accept that my sins are supposedly so great, that a man must bear so much suffering for me? Again and again we hear about conversions, which the spectators experienced while watching the movie. Who is this Jim Caviezel who was able to interpret Jesus in such an impressive way? In an Interview with the” Oase des Friedens “ he admits that without his experience in Medjugorje he would never have accepted this role. In Medjugorje he was granted a new dimension of faith. Christian Stelzer in Vienna held the Interview with Jim Caviezel, in February 2010.

Središte liturgijske godine jest Kristova Muka, Smrt i Uskrsnuće, u bogoslužju Crkve nazvano pashalnim ili vazmenim otajstvom. To sveto trodnevlje Krista raspetoga, pokopanog i uskrsloga, kao godišnje spomen – slavlje, u Međugorju je proslavljeno uz župljane te uz, dosad neviđen broj, domaćih i stranih hodočasnika. Liturgijska slavlja čitavi Veliki tjedan, a osobito tri dana - od večeri Velikoga četvrtka do uskrsne nedjelje, pretvorila su čitavi prostor oko crkve sv. Jakova u molitveni prostor. (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 - Fra Petar Vlasic Glavnom ulogom u filmu Mela Gibsona „Pasija“, Jim Caviezel postigao je svjetsku slavu. Tko je taj glumac koji se tako dojmljivo suživio s likom Isusovim? Osobno tvrdi da bez međugorskih iskustava nikada ne bi bio prihvatio tu ulogu. U Međugorju je, naime, iskusio jednu do tada nepoznatu dimenziju vjere. U veljači ove godine po šesti je puta hodočastio u Međugorje, a nakon toga posjetio i Beč. S njim je u Beču razgovor vodio Christian Stelzer za časopis „Oase des Friedens“, a hrvatski prijevod donosi najnoviji „Glasnik mira“ iz Međugorja. Broj podijeljenih sv. pričesti: 80.500 Broj svećenika koncelebranata: 1434 (46 dnevno) Velika Subota - Vazmeno bdijenje - 3. travnja – Na Veliku Subotu Crkva se zadržava kod Gospodinova groba u molitvi i postu.

U mnoštvu od dvije tisuće hodočasnika iz Austrije, koji su za Cvjetnicu pristigli na hodočašće u Međugorje, susreli smo i Aloisa Epnera, 79-godišnjeg umirovljenog učitelja iz Gornje Austrije. Djetinjstvo je proveo u rodnoj Hrvatskoj, a nakon Drugoga svjetskog rata, zajedno s mnogim sunarodnjacima, pred partizanima odlazi u Austriju. Alois je prvi put hodočastio u Međugorje 1984. i otada je neumoran Gospin hodočasnik. Cvjetnicom ili Nedjeljom Muke Gospodnje započinje Veliki tjedan, vrhunac priprave za svetkovinu Uskrsnuća Gospodinova. U Međugorju je, kao i dosadašnjih godina, liturgija Cvjetnice 28. ožujka započela na temeljima stare župne crkve u 10,30. U liturgijski predviđenoj procesiji, nakon čitanja evanđelja o ulasku Gospodinovu u Jeruzalem te blagoslova grančica, ministranti, čitači, pjevači, svećenici i puk Božji – župljani i hodočasnici, krenuli su prema vanjskome oltaru iza župne crkve gdje je u 11 sati slavljena sv. Misa Muke Gospodnje. Župljanima su se i ove godine pridružili brojni hodočasnici iz okolnih mjesta BiH, Hrvatske te iz Inozemstva, a osobito brojni bili su hodočasnici iz Austrije. Tijekom dana, osim na hrvatskome, slavljene su svete Mise i na španjolskom, flamanskom, engleskom, talijanskom i njemačkom jeziku. Mnoštvo hodočasnika pridružilo se i molitvenom zajedništvu krunice na Podbrdu u 14 sati. (slike) Korizmeni koncert „Miserere Nobis“ održan je u župnoj crkvi sv. Jakova apostola u Međugorju, uoči Cvjetnice, u subotu 27. ožujka u 19 sati. Na koncertu je sudjelovao Katedralni Oratorijski zbor - Mostar, pod ravnanjem maestra don Dragana Filipovića,koji redovito nastupa u mostarskoj katedrali, a pratio ih je i Simfonijski Orkestar - Mostar.

Osjećam se fantastično, lijepo. Nije mi ovo prvi put, ali sam prvi put ovako dugo. Osjećam se duhovno ispunjenim kao i toliki svijet koji dolazi ovdje u Međugorje. Najveća hrvatska pisanica, „Pisanica od srca“ - uskrsno jaje visine 2,05 m, širine 1,5 m, s postoljem teškim 120 kg, dar Koprivničko-križevačke županije – postavljena je ispred međugorske župne crkve, u ponedjeljak 22. ožujka.
