Medjugorje, August 17, 2023

Dear friends, praise be to Jesus and Mary!

1. On July 25, 2023, visionary Marija received the following monthly message:

Dear children! In this time of grace, in which the Most High sends me to you to love you and guide you on the way of conversion, offer your prayers and sacrifices for all those who are far away and have not come to know God’s love. You, little children, be witnesses of love and peace for all peaceless hearts. Thank you for having responded to my call.

2. One evening on Križevac… After the Balkan war, my Mexican friends came to Medjugorje with a group of 45 pilgrims, including 15 priests. One of the priests having had to cancel his trip, was replaced by another pilgrim. But I will let Emilio, the leader of the group, tell the story of what he considers to be one of the most incredible events in his life:

From the beginning of the trip, our group was embarrassed to see this newcomer drinking a lot of alcohol and even harassing women. He was aggressive and disrespectful. And yet he was a priest, replacing the priest who had cancelled his trip! You couldn’t tell from what he was wearing that he was a priest.

Once we arrived in Rome, our first stop, he disappeared for 4 days, and no one knew where he was. He only showed up for the departure to Split, loudly expressing his anger at having to go to this small hamlet of Medjugorje. His attitude was becoming more and more unbearable, his arrogance was detestable.

On the first day of the pilgrimage, our group went to see the visionary, Vicka, who gave pilgrims the main messages of the Blessed Mother as well as her personal experience. My wife and another friend were near this priest, in order to be the last ones to come under the hands of Vicka who prayed for the pilgrims. The priest began to utter sounds like animal cries, and began to vomit. As for Vicka, she kept calm and continued to pray in peace, trusting that Mary would take care of this strange pilgrim.

At the end, Vicka raised her hand towards him while praying silently for him, when suddenly he uttered a horrible cry and fled. Vicka continued to pray for the members of our group. She laid hands on us in silence.

On the last day, it was very cold and snowing a lot. Then only four of us insisted on climbing Mount Križevac. We were enthusiastic, even though we were not wearing warm clothes or proper shoes.

As we were walking alongside the church in the direction of the mountain, we didn’t see anyone outside because of the icy wind. However, we heard a voice shouting out to us in the distance. It was that priest! He asked us where we were going, and expressed his wish to go with us. We accepted, though reluctantly. He took a bag with him, that contained what was needed to celebrate Mass. (PS1)

The climb was very difficult, given the icy wind and snow. We were frozen in our ordinary street clothes! Once we got to the top, we sat in circles to attend Mass. Then, little by little, we started feeling as if we were enveloped in a very gentle and warm atmosphere that protected us from the wind, cold and snow. Our clothes dried quickly. A mysterious light illuminated us, while the day had already dimmed very quickly. Mass began.

At the moment of the offertory, the priest kept silent for a few minutes, knelt down, and turned his face to heaven. Then, in an extremely loud voice, he asked our Heavenly Father to forgive him for every one of his sins. He spoke all his sins aloud, while weeping and begging God for mercy. We were completely dumbfounded! But we felt compelled to do as he did, and in turn, we each confessed our sins out loud.

We then had the most beautiful experience of our lives. At the end, we were filled with the joy of the Holy Spirit, we couldn’t stop singing. We went back down the mountain without any fear despite the dark night. A light illuminated each of our steps. We got to the pension at midnight. Then the priest told us how he had gradually lapsed. He was disappointed by a series of difficult obstacles in his pastoral ministry, and had become deeply discouraged. That was when he sank into alcoholism and some other deadly traps.

Eight months later, he shared with us his great joy at having been able to restore his parish upon his return from this pilgrimage, and how, with God’s grace, he had adopted Our Lady’s spiritual riches in his pastoral ministry: the Rosary, the Eucharist, Adoration and the main messages of Medjugorje… In short, this beautiful resurrection spread like wildfire!”

As for us, what can we learn from all this? There is a missing piece in this story, which will remain the secret of the King. What happened in the heart of this priest between the prayer with Vicka and the moment when he wanted to climb the mountain with us, in this icy cold weather? Prayer… That is where the real miracle is! The fervent prayer of an entire group as well as Vicka’s obtained a pathway to peace for this lost heart. Fervent prayer is what obtained this wonderful outpouring of the Holy Spirit on Mount Križevac! God alone knows the many fruits that have flowed down from there to the whole Church and to the world!

3. A fiery soul has returned to the Father! Who doesn’t know Sister Elvira (or Mother Elvira) and her magnificent work through the community of Cenacolo? I met her in 1990, before the Balkan war, when the few young people she had gathered were still living in tents, without any proper facilities. She struck me with her pragmatism and her unique way of expressing her love for these troubled young people. She had both the authority and the maternal tact to prove to them that they were going to make it. Nothing would stop her! She saved countless young people from drugs, alcohol and so many other disastrous paths through prayer, hard work, a fraternal lifestyle and the proximity of good priests who loved and understood them.

Suffering from Alzheimer’s disease, she passed away peacefully on August 3rd, surrounded by her community, in Saluzzo, Italy, at the age of 86. (PS2)

The visionary Vicka, with whom she had collaborated extensively, was able to attend Mother Elvira’s funeral despite her own fragile health. Vicka was the “godmother” to these young people. Before she got married, she could be found cooking in front of their stoves as well as helping with the housework.

Too many young people are in trouble! Today, let us ask the Lord to send new Sister Elviras everywhere, because the need for this gift is constantly increasing. From the beginning of the apparitions, Our Lady told us and repeated through Vicka:

Dear children, pray for young people because they are in a very difficult situation all over the world.

4. What is my great joy in Medjugorje?  It is to meet people from all walks of life who, against all odds, remain faithful to the Gospel and to the words of Our Lady, often at the cost of great persecution. In the simplicity of their hearts, these people live out their Christian faith without compromising with the false values of the world. You can recognize them a mile away, because they radiate a great inner peace. I believe that they form that “remnant” mentioned several times in the Book of Revelation and of which the mystic Marthe Robin also spoke. They are those “little burning hubs of fervor in a harsh and Godless world and a “humanity that has chosen death”, according to a recent message. These people are already described by several saints, including the great Marian prophet Saint Louis de Montfort, (1673-1716), the ones he called the apostles of the end times. In a word, “they will be true disciples of Jesus Christ, walking in the footsteps of his poverty, humility, contempt for the world, and charity, teaching the narrow way of God in pure truth, according to the Holy Gospel. … (PS2)

These people need to be encouraged! And so I wish to quote this beautiful message given by Mary on February 2nd, 2017, through the visionary Mirjana:

Dear children, you who are striving to offer every day of your life to my Son, you who are trying to live with Him, you who are praying and sacrificing – you are hope in this peaceless world. You are rays of the light of my Son, a living gospel, and you are my beloved apostles of love. My Son is with you. He is with those who think of Him – those who pray. But in the same way, He is patiently waiting for those who do not know Him. Therefore, you, apostles of my love, pray with the heart and with your works show the love of my Son. This is the only hope for you, and this is also the only way to Eternal Life. I, as a mother, I am here with you. Your prayers directed to me are the most beautiful roses of love for me. I cannot but be where I sense the scent of roses. There is hope. Thank you.
