Though the Five Days of Prayer with Our Lady, July 1-5, 2008 ended, Marija stayed for another two weeks on a private visit with the founder of Caritas and the community before returning to Medjugorje for the Youth Festival the first of August. Though the large crowds had left the day the retreat ended, there was still a small crowd gathered in the Field at the time of Our Lady’s apparition which was in the Bedroom, at 11:40 a.m. Our Lady continued to bless those gathered in the Field during the apparition to Marija in the Bedroom.
