The fervour of the family prayer that used to be so strong, the sound of the prayer outside our homes, as if that had disappeared, today we pray so little, the Bible and fasting are hardly mentioned. Mother, forgive us for the moments when our ears were shut, and our hearts were closed.
Yet, you did not give up on us, but each month you continued to invite us repeatedly: Thank you for having responded to my call. (PHOTO)

What is new and special about this year’s celebration of the Anniversary is the procession that will take place from the Apparition Hill – place of Our Lady’s first apparition – to the church of St. James in Medjugorje. The procession will start from the Apparition Hill at 4.30 pm, so all the participants would be able to come to the church ground before the evening prayer programme. Then, after the Rosary, the procession with the statue of Our Lady would start at 7 pm and this would be the beginning of the solemn Holy Mass on that day.

“I am very content how Franciscans organised this event, and how you as the community responded to it, so we would all be part of the Marathon of Prayer that was initiated by Pope Francis. It is evident that Rosary in this parish is such a strong pillar, and this community is founded on it. To my knowing of Pope Francis, if he was here, I am sure he would have told you the same”, said Msgr. Pezzuto and invited all not to forget to pray for the Apostolic Visitor Henryk Hoser and his recovery, so he would be back again at his work in Medjugorje among us. (PHOTO)

In these 40 years, “the mustard seed has become a great tree, bearing many fruits that are good and visible.” Once again, you are showing great interest in this Conference, which will be held on May 29 and 30, 2021 in Medjugorje. And in this way, like many times before, you are showing the love you have for our Divine Redeemer and His and Our Most Holy Mother Mary, the Queen of Peace. Because, the zeal of your heart, the love, the joy and the longing that you feel cannot be contained. Right?

''We need to gaze at the crucified Jesus, we need to look at Him, His passion while He carried his cross, that was not just His, but it is our cross in His life. If we have faith, we should not be afraid of anything discomfortable that can take place in our lives'', said Pezzuto, mentioning at the end of his homily this pandemic, as one of the main reasons that takes away our peace.
