Journalists of radio station “Mir” Medjugorje constantly invite pilgrims who come to Medjugorje to witness about their apparitions. Here, we will bring some of those experiences.
Davor Terzic, musician and composer from Rovinj came with his wife Vesna to Medjugorje.They were in Medjugorje hotel. Davor is pretty much present at Croatian music scene and he’s continually participating at every holiday of spiritual music. “We visited other Croatian shrines like Marija Bistrica and Vepric, and here we are in Medjugorje, for seventh, eighth time. We try to have a little bit time for ourselves every year. Our work is related to music, we make our living from that. We come here to thank The Lord for everything he has given us in the previous year. Here is where we feel fulfilled.”

The Association “I hear, I suspect, I see” from Zagreb has organised study trip and pilgrimage for younger people and disabled students. While they were in Medjugorje they visited prayer places and participated in the evening prayer program.
The blind student from Prelog, Martina Bilic, announced that best challenge for her was to climb Apparition Hill. “This was always beautiful experience for me, it is physical effort, but one can feel non secular peace and sacrifice which has purpose.”

Andrea Bianco, 41 years old pilgrim from Bolzano, small city on the north of Italy, shared his familiarity with us. As a sophomore student he was in a heavy automobile accident and lost his sight on that occasion. He thinks that he survived thanks to God’s prudence. He’s married and has 4 youngsters. He’s making rosary beads along with his other half and gives those to travellers, but also he is organizing pilgrimages to Medjugorje. “My young days were like of the average young person at that point. I had it all, squeeze, cash, I was studying. I did not fret about spirituality too much. It was all about entertainment. All of a sudden, my life was modified over the night. One day, I was on my way back home, after having a field trip with my squeeze, I would have liked to overtake a truck that hit us and threw us to a tree on the other side. My fiance was fine, but I was seriously hurt . I was taken by copter to the infirmary in Bolzano. It was Holy Thursday, and they did not have enough staff. I was sent to the surgery in Verona and I had surgery there. My doctor was younger, new doctor who had lost his bro in a car accident also. He probably did the surgery and I was in coma for 20 days. I had one hematoma that was pressing my eye nerves and that’s how I lost my sight.” What followed was the period of recovery when he went from infirmary to infirmary. It was in that time that he welt urge to go to sacrament of reconciliation. Shortly after he got the sacrament of Holy Confirmation that he had not received before. Three years thereafter he and his squeeze Lara got married. He said how he was listening stories about Medjugorje for years that were both positive and negative. He came on his first pilgrimage in 1998, and fruits of that pilgrimage followed after. “This is where we will be able to feel heaven, immense grace from our Heavenly Mother. We are coming home renewed, different and we are prepared to return to this place of grace”, said Andrea who comes regularly to Medjugorje biannually since that time.
Fr. Loky Flanagan, Irish missionary in Malawi, Africa, shared his experience as well . He was introduced to Medjugorje through charity organisation “Mary’s Meals” that’s fruits of Medjugorje and feeds every single day around four hundred thousand kids in Africa. He came to Medjugorje in 2003, and participated at the retreat for clergymen and found that a superb religious experience. “Medjugorje helped me to have religion and trust in The Lord God, it encourages me to resume working as a priest. I have more peace. Meeting people and confessions help me a lot. I wouldn’t say that I am continually involved in the events in Medjugorje, but I do have a book with Our Lady’s messages”, said Fr. Loky who plans to come to Medjugorje next year also, writes tagza.com.
