Daily homily

Let the Seed of the Kingdom of God Grow

Starting from the parable of the mustard seed and the yeast, the speaker warns that the grace received in Holy Communion and the word of God must be nourished with prayer in our daily lives and families. He urges that our pilgrimage to Medjugorje should not be a superficial religiosity or a search for comfort, but a source of true conversion, forgiveness, and a changed life.

Medjugorje is one of the world's best-known Marian shrines, where Our Lady has been speaking to the world through messages since 1981. The Queen of Peace calls us to conversion, prayer, fasting and peace.

The story of Medjugorje

What, where and when?

1981

The first apparition

On 24 June 1981 six young people (Ivanka, Mirjana, Vicka, Ivan, Marija and Jakov) first saw the Virgin Mary on Podbrdo hill. Mary introduced herself as the "Queen of Peace".

1981-2025

Continuing apparitions

The apparitions have continued ever since. Some of the visionaries still receive messages from Our Lady every day.

2017

Approval from the Vatican

Pope Francis authorised official pilgrimages to Medjugorje and appointed an apostolic visitor to the shrine.
