Hello Frog
Just a few words, hopefully to give you an idea of Medjugorje, what it means to me anyway.
I have been to Medjugorje four times, I feel my love of Our Lady has grown gradually with each visit. It is a place you have to experience for yourself, as each time I have gone, it has been a different experience for me. I feel an amazing peace in Medjugorje, and it is almost as if Our Lady's mantle covers Medjugorje.
Each time I have gone I have taken somebody with me, and their lives have changed, often you see the change in yourself many months after you come home.
I think you have possibly read on conversion stories of my daughters wonderful conversion. I had prayed for nine years for her to come back to God. It was a miracle I got her to go to Medjugorje in the first place, I told her to treat it as a holiday, as I knew she wouldn't go willingly into churches or pray. I placed her in Our Lady's hands. If you haven't read it, go to conversion Story Swap, and read daughters conversion, also read Gospa Oratorio, a wonderful story of a gentleman I met in Medjugorje in October. These witnesses will show you how conversions happen often in Medjugorje.
We had a most wonderful week, and by the second day, Our Lady had touched Debbie on Apparition Hill. Immediately she believed, and she converted back to her catholic faith. since she came home she is a changed person, with a beautiful faith.
I don't go to Medjugorje expecting things to happen. For me just to be there is enough, so I don't think you should expect too much, and then see if Our Lady touches you. I am sure she will.
I am going to Medjugorje again this month, I am taking a young man with me that has one or two problems. I will let you know about our pilgrimage when I get back.
Do you want to ask anything about Medjugorje, I will try to answer you if I can.
My friend is in Medjugorje at the moment, for the first time. I will let you know about her pilgrimage later. She was really looking forward to going.
Do you know Our Lady calls us to Medjugorje, I think it is wonderful to know, that it isn't just our wanting to go.
I hope this will help in some way, please keep in touch, I can only say you are very blessed to be going. my email is
