Tonight Our Lady appeared to Ivan during his prayer group meeting on top of Apparition Hill. The prayer group began singing around 8:45 p.m. Then at around 9:15 p.m., Ivan announced that we would now pray the Joyful and Sorrowful Mysteries in preparation for Our Lady’s apparition. The mountain tonight was full of pilgrims, with many still climbing up to the very last second. Our Lady appeared to Ivan around 10:00 p.m. The apparition was a very long one, lasting around 12 minutes. The following is Ivan’s description of the apparition:
As every day, after the meeting together with Our Lady, I would like to also bring closer to you and describe what is the most important from tonight’s meeting. Also today Our Lady came to us joyful and happy, and at the beginning She greeted all of us with Her motherly greeting, ‘Praised be Jesus my dear children.’ Then She extended Her arms and She prayed especially over all of us present here, and especially She prayed over you, the sick who are present here. Then Our Lady said:
Then Our Lady blessed all of us with Her motherly blessing, and She also blessed everything you brought to be blessed. I recommended also all of you, all of your needs, your intentions, and your families, and in a special way, the sick. Then Our Lady continued to pray for awhile over all of us here and She left in that prayer, in an illuminated Sign of the Cross, with a greeting, “Go in peace my dear children.”

Early evening on top of Apparition Mountain before Ivan’s Prayer Group, August 26, 2016, while the sun slowly descends to mark the end of another day. It is a day that has received words from Heaven, from its Queen, and therefore, it is a day that will be remembered until the end of man’s time on earth.
How many ways can Our Lady explain to us how we are to “be” when we are with others; our families, friends, believers, unbelievers? She tells us today, August 26, 2016, that if we are living Her messages, that is enough to “irradiate others” with “our presence” which is filled with Her presence.
Irradiate: 1.a. to cast rays of light upon: illuminate b. to enlighten intellectually or spiritually c. to affect or treat by radiant energy (as heat); to treat by exposure to radiation 2. To emit like rays of light: radiate
Radiate: 1. To send out rays: shine brightly 2. a. to issue in rays b: to evolve by radiation 3. To proceed in a direct line from or toward a center
The last definition for “radiate” says “to proceed in a direct line from or toward a center.” Our Lady says, “…you be my living sign, a sign of my presence ‘here’…” Where is “here?” “Here” is Medjugorje, the center location for the spiritual renewal of the whole world. Medjugorje is the New Jerusalem. Medjugorje is where the Son of Our Lady is being “reborn” in the hearts of men. Medjugorje is the Sun from which the world is being “irradiated” with the love of Our Lady, through Her apostles who are filled with Her radiating love. She is irradiating us, and we in turn, are to irradiate others through the love we have received from Her.
In the Radiating Love of Our Lady,

For a while now, anytime I go anywhere, store, work etc. I pray that I will show love and kindness and it will be shown to me. Rarely do I run into a rude person. Some people encounter rudeness everywhere they go. This message validates that. And I had opportunities to share about Medjugorje at times that I didn’t think I would.

What a wonderful promise that She’ s interceding as always to Her Son Jesus Christ our Lord, so She keep on assuring as not to be afraid, that is why we will live to Her messages as we get along for the second coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen..& Amen
This is so amazing and out of this world. I love Mother Mary and whenever I receive the email telling of Her presence that evening I contact friends and family advising them to be in prayer. This is such a privilege and an honour to be receiving the words from Our Queen of Peace the Mother of the World and these words from Heaven. I wish I could come to Medjugorje at least one time to be in Her presence to have that beautiful feeling and experience this out of world experience. I love you Mother Your Humble servant and daughter Janet
I love explaination from a Friend of Medjugorje. It gives me a better explanation of who we are (be) and how we are to (irradiate). Please tell me if the messages from Our Blessed Mother Mary are for those in Medjugorje alone, those in Medjugorje and those who have been there for Her message, and/or those who receive Her messages by way of email, iPad or some other way. I was in Medjugorje for my Mother’s message but for years have received Her messages by other means. Every time I read or re-read one of Her messages, my heart feels like it is being pulled back to Medjugorje and my Mother. Thank you and God bless you and may our Mother bless you. Bonnie
I am filled with joy at this greeting and I thank our Blessed Mother for coming to us and giving us hope and joy!
