Please Note: On May 19 2019, received email dated May 18, 2019 in which at one point Sr. Emmanuel Maillard says,
"Now, as is the case for all websites associated with Medjugorje, we will no longer be able to publish the link to Mirjana's apparition, because this has been requested by the authorities. We will however provide a simple photo of Mirjana. Obedience is always blessed! "

Medjugorje, May 13, 2019
Our Lady of Fatima!
Dear Children of Medjugorje, praised be Jesus and Mary!
Hallelujah! Since yesterday, May 12th, 2019, we are under the shock of the News, the wonderful News that has already spread all around the world:
Pope Francis has officially authorized pilgrimages to Medjugorje! A foundational event in the history of this Shrine that has been attracting huge crowds since June 1981, when it all started.
I invite you to take a look at the link vaticannews, from the Vatican:
Yesterday morning at the 8 o'clock mass, Bishop Hoser, the Pope's Envoy to Medjugorje, made the announcement, in the presence of the Nuncio for Bosnia Hercegovina, Archbishop Luigi Pezzuto. Go to:
Joy has seized our hearts, so we warmly thank our Mother of Heaven, the Queen of Peace, for allowing this great opening on the part of Rome, which we were waiting for, in trusting prayer and with eagerness. Let us continue to pray that heaven will continue its wonders in this place of grace, which John Paul II called a "Centre of spirituality" and wished so much to visit himself.
Today, May 13th, we celebrate the first apparition of Mary in Fatima, and it so happens that Medjugorje is the continuation of what the Mother of God began through the secrets she conveyed in Fatima (message of Aug. 25th, 1991). We are truly living in a time of grace and mercy, even amid the whirlwinds and storms that the enemy provokes.
Let us not weaken in our fight against the darkness, greatly encouraged by this wonderful step forward from the Vatican, which will certainly also attract many priests and bishops to Medjugorje!
May God's blessing be upon you all! Hallelujah!
