Dear children;
Also today I am among you to point you to the way that will help you to come to know God's love, the love of God Who permitted you to call Him Father and to perceive Him as Father. I ask of you to sincerely look into your hearts and to see how much you love Him. Is He the last to be loved? Surrounded by material goods, how many times have you betrayed, denied and forgotten Him? My children, do not deceive yourselves with worldly goods. Think of your soul because it is more important than the body, cleanse it. Invoke the Father, He is waiting for you. Come back to Him. I am with you because He, in His mercy, sends me. Thank you.

Dear Children,

As I look at you, my heart seizes with pain. Where are you going my children? Have you sunk so deeply into sin that you do not know how to stop yourselves? You justify yourselves with sin and live according to it. Kneel down beneath the Cross and look at my Son. He conquered sin and died so that you, my children, may live. Permit me to help you not to die but to live with my Son forever. Thank you!

Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow told the audience how a visit to Medjugorje inspired him to found Mary's Meals.

Georg Pospischil, an elderly man from Austria, told how participating in last year's Medjugorje prayer rally in St. Stephan's Cathedral, along with his continued prayers to Our Lady, relieved his wife from a severe liver disease. Visionary Ivan had been present, and after his apparition in the church, he had told the audience that God is able to heal everyone. "Then I thought to myself: When he says so, I must believe it. That evening I wrote in my diary: 'I firmly believe my wife will be healed' ", Georg Pospischil testified.

Today is the 13th adn calendar vise the Feast of the Holy Cross is tomorrow. Here in Medjugorje we celebrate the Feast of teh Holy Cross the Sunday before Sep. 14th, today. The traditionaly celebrateon takes place on top of the Cross Mountain, holy mass is served atop at 10:30 and large crowds gather. I would guess anything from 15000 to 20000 people from all over the area and alot of pilgrims from around the world. Living at the base of hte Cross Mountain this became a special day for me and my family. Since 1933-34 this is how it has been and the attendance grows from year to year, even during the war crisis we had here. I was unable to go up to the top today as I am still disabled but I am there in spirit with all of you dear friends.  GOD BLESS

Hello all, as you notices I've been absent for a while, I had some medical issues so I was unable to keep all of this up to date. Things are better now so I went out and did a short photo time lapse, merged it in to a video and I am sharing it with all of you. I hope you like it. GOD BLESS (click "read more" below to view, have your speakers on please).

Dear friends, another long day is behind, I just got back from the evening program, the atmosphere was just overwhelming, the singing and dancing and the entire prayer program. Fr. Miljenko Steko was the one that conducted the program today, he did a great job. The main celebrant of the evening mass was Fr. Dragan Ruzic and there were 550 priests that concelebrated. As I said before, it is hard to say how many people attended tonight, if I had to guess by the coverage of the area compared to the last year I would say at least 30% more than last year. This is all for now, click read more below for photos/video:
