runner sets aside time for preparation to achieve victory. His triumph is to win. Our Lady has come for the same reasons. We now have a special period of time to prepare for a victory, a triumph over darkness which is convulsing in every way to triumph over light and destroy the whole world, right down into the nucleus of the family. Our time was up when Our Lady first appeared at 6:40 p.m. on June 24, 1981. But at that precise moment, an abundance of mercy began to be poured out upon the earth through Our Lady blessing all the world at each daily apparition. How many hearts responded and later grew hard to this daily mercy? How many went to Medjugorje and then grew tired? How many actually went to Medjugorje and now no longer even believe in the messages? The heart of man has grown hard, just as the Israelites did in the desert while wandering for 40 years.
Twenty-six years of apparitions have made some former “Medjugorje-ites” just as the Israelites, grow hard-hearted. Our Lady’s plans are for all hearts: Jews, Christians, Muslims, non-believers – all to resurrect in the light of Christ. She is planning to triumph in this momentous glorious cause. Her want is to transform all of mankind, a real transformation of the world. And we know Mama got what She wanted at the wedding feast of Cana, and She’s not going to get tired or stop until She gets what She wants now. The real question is who will still be standing with Her? Who will not transform in the “special time of prayer” will be transformed in the time to come, the time of purification of the earth. Our Lady’s plans are to bring about a holy purified earth, cleansed and washed by severe storms. These plans will come to pass because Our Lady said on October 10, 1981:
The three secrets are promises that Our Lady said will not be avoided, at most they can only be mitigated by prayer.

Apparition to Mirjana Soldo for Unbelievers
Pilgrims were gathered well before 6:00 a.m. There were several thousand present both inside and outside the building where the apparition was. All the children present were allowed to gather around the altar where Mirjana would pray. Our Lady appeared to Mirjana at 9:09 a.m. The apparition lasted until 9:14 a.m. The following is Our Lady’s message:
Our Lady added:
Our Lady blessed all those present and all religious articles, emphasizing that Hers is a motherly blessing and that the greatest blessing is that of a priest.
We receive several calls per day of requests for prayers. One call may be for a son killed in a car accident, another for a wife with cancer, another for surgery or a lost job. We gladly comply with these requests because prayer is our life.
Prayer requests are always crisis-oriented, a problem of such magnitude that the situation is beyond human help. One thing for sure, when the request comes in, it is a serious crisis. Today’s request from Our Lady, that “your shepherds need your prayers,” says what many in the Church know. We have a crisis amongst our shepherds. There is much unbelief amongst our shepherds. It is interesting that Our Lady has told us several times during the second of the month apparitions for non-believers to pray for our shepherds. The flock is starving, and it is Our Lady who is coming to feed us. A recent proclamation from the Shepherd’s conference started off with “we the successors of the Apostles.” Why must we read “that” if we all believe “that”? Insecurity in one’s own self, breeds such reminders, (“we the successors of the Apostles”) which gives evidence of not doing what one is suppose to be doing. We don’t need more Judas talk about “but what about the poor” when man is so impoverished in sin that hell is prevailing in society. Mankind is very, very spiritually poor today. Our Lady said due to this state, most people go to Purgatory, the second most go directly to hell, and few go directly to Heaven. Is this a shepherd problem or a flock problem? It is why Medjugorje is a lay-led movement, and perhaps why God has not let it be approved yet. However still, we cannot, as faithful Church members, challenge obedience to good or not so good shepherds.
But obedience does not stop us from realizing the reality of our situation, that the flock is starving while the shepherds are well-fed, yet do not understand or believe who and what power they possess. Our Lady has said that the greatest blessing is that of a priest and has repeated it several times in the last several months. Mirjana said Our Lady “emphasized that the greatest blessing is that of a priest,” once again in the apparition of April 2, 2007.
Our Lady has recently said at the end of Mass, when a priest blesses, it is Her Son Jesus blessing you. Yes, many have knowledge of this, but how many know what that means? So Our Lady calls in a request today for a crisis prayer, “Your shepherds need your prayers.” We should take the request seriously and at the same time realize our own calling is to resurrect the Church and usher in a springtime. It will be done by the faithful, led by Our Lady.
Look What Happened While You Were Sleeping addresses many issues such as discussed here and an announcement will be made this week about its release.
In the love of Our Lady,
– A Friend of Medjugorje
P.S. A hard heart, a need for transformation, and a need for peace, by someone who would like it, is never unfulfilled by a pilgrimage to Medjugorje. Drop any reason or objection on going to Medjugorje. If the reason is too big to overcome, say “I’m going and I trust you Mary to get me there.” Start making plans. Let the obstacle stop you, not your decision because of the obstacle in the way. Plan and pray. Spend some time on the BVM Pilgrimage Section and you will receive a stronger desire just by looking and reading through it.
The Tabernacle of Our Lady’s Messages – April 2, 2007
For us in community, springtime reminds us of the coming springtime for the Church through the purification it will experience. On this day Our Lady has designated for non-believers, the community is reading and reflecting, while on retreat, about Our Lady’s call and what our response should be. Everyone is on their own private retreat. The grounds of Caritas, with the fragrance of Our Lady’s apparitions, and in addition to the scenes and scents of spring, make it a holy place to retreat and contemplate Our Lady’s plans, even for those of us who live here every day.

It was Jesus himself who in the Lords prayer referred to God as Our Father who is in heaven. Our Lady and dear mother of Medjugorje is telling us through the messages given to Mirjana, how God is our loving Father longing for the salvation of all men. Let all sinners remember the parable of the prodigal son and return to be embraced by the good Father Thank you Mirjana for your mission, to give our Ladys messages to humanity.
