Good morning peaceful Mejdugorje!

Several days after Festival all is peaceful in Mejdugorje. Yes, we do have pilgrims all the time but it is nothing compared to the period of first week in august when we had over 30 000 people.
The program for Festival was great and the information we are receiving from our visitors are just wonderful. I guess next year we just might have some few thousands more.
As all days in Mejdugorje are very interesting so this week also is full of the events.
Highlights are (so far) the amazing photo of Our Lady of Fatima, we had a opportunity to see. It is the photo of the statue where you can see Our Lady smiling. Now this would not be something special if one is not able to see her teeth.... Yes! Our Lady of Fatima, smiling, showing teeth.
Now we have seen so many statues but I have never in my life heard of statue showing teeth. Of course this statue has no teeth either it is just on that photo. Amazing.
Our Lady was actually there with those people and she was really smiling to them , isn't that great!
I am so happy for those people who were, as I have heard later, fasting and praying all day long and were very tired and hungry but still decided to stay with Our Lady and pray. What a great reward for them.

Second thing is the fall of an older man on Podbrdo ( Apparition Hill) ... This elderly man , about 2 meters tall has just flipped over those stones and fall backwards...Rolled three times down the hill and then just got up with nothing
broken or injured ! Our Lady was with him and she helped him not to be injured.


This is it for today, we do not know what God is planning for us today. Only it is sure that it will not be a boring day. Simply there are no boring days in Medjugorje.

May God bless you all
Emanuel
