On Wednesday, June 25, the parish of Medjugorje will solemnly celebrate the 44th anniversary of Our Lady's apparitions. This year, parishioners and pilgrims will prepare for this anniversary for nine days by praying the Rosary on Apparition Hill and by participating in the evening prayer and liturgical program.
''Next Sunday, June 15, is the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity. Masses are held at 7, 8, 11 am, and 7 pm in the parish church of St. James in Medjugorje, and the Novena to the Queen of Peace will begin on that day. Every day at 4 p.m. for these nine days, the Rosary will be said on Apparition Hill.
"On Monday, June 16, the Novena to the Queen of Peace will begin at the evening prayer program," the Medjugorje Parish Office announced, noting that this year, too, parishioners will lead the rosary before evening mass.
On the first day of the Novena, Monday, June 16, the rosary will be led by parishioners from Miletina, a day later by parishioners from Vionica, and on the third day by parishioners from Šurmanci. On the fourth day of the Novena, Thursday, June 19, the rosary will be led by the members of the Secular Franciscan Order from Medjugorje, while on Friday the rosary will be led by parishioners from Bijakovići, and on Saturday by parishioners from Medjugorje. On Sunday, the rosary will be led by the members of the Mother's Village. On Monday, June 23, the penultimate day of the Novena, the rosary will be led by the Medjugorje friars, and on the last day of the Novena, on the day of the apparitions of Our Lady in Medjugorje, the rosary will be led by the members of the humanitarian association 'Mary’s Hands' from Medjugorje.
