Message of June 25, 2007

“Dear children! Also today, with great joy in my heart, I call you to conversion. Little children, do not forget that you are all important in this great plan, which God leads through Medjugorje. God desires to convert the entire world and to call it to salvation and to the way towards Himself, who is the beginning and the end of every being. In a special way, little children, from the depth of my heart, I call you all to open yourselves to this great grace that God gives you through my presence here. I desire to thank each of you for the sacrifices and prayers. I am with you and I bless you all. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

The visionary Ivanka Ivankovic-Elez-apparition

The visionary Ivanka Ivankovic-Elez had her regular annual apparition on June 25^th 2007. According to the visionaries, Vicka, Marija and Ivan continue to have daily apparitions, and Mirjana, Ivanka and Jakov have an annual apparition.

At Her last daily apparition on May 7, 1985, Our Lady confided to Ivanka the 10^th secret and told her that she would have an apparition once a year on the anniversary of the apparitions. It was that way also this year. The apparition lasted 17 minutes. Ivanka had the apparition at home in the presence of her family, her husband and her three children.

After the apparition, the visionary Ivanka said:
“Our Lady remained with me for 17 minutes. She was joyful and spoke to me about Her life. Our Lady said: ‘Dear children, receive my motherly blessing

Finally back online!

Praised be Jesus and Mary!
We have finally got the wireless internet and I can start writing our Web journal again.
It has been a long time, a year!As we are living in a rented half finished house, we do not have a phone line which meant "living off line"!
There is so much going on that is hard to decide what should I write about.
First I have to thank all of you who were waiting patiently for us to get back online, also to all of you who have been writing and even visiting us in our shop upon your arrival in Medjugorje.
We are truly grateful to all of you for your mails, gifts for Sara, and far most for your prayers, especially in our "hour of need" when Sara had to have blood transfusions. Thank you from the bottom of our heart. Emanuel, Sara and I will never forget you and will keep you in our prayers every day. As Sara is now sleeping I am using this time to write. I hope I will be able to keep you posted on the events in Medjugorje. It is hard with a small baby as she also wants to type in her thoughts and ides .. :-) so I have decided to give her one old typing board so she can do her own thing on it and will leave her mom to do hers. We will see how will it work. I have to tell you that it worked very well when I was studing for the state exam this winter. We bought her a book for little babies and she was very happy with it. She read it while I read mine papers and books (which were substantial because we had to pass 10 exams) and I have successfully passed and got my license for three languages ; Italian, French and English. All I need now is work , so if you need a licensed tour guide and guide for pilgrims in Medjugorje here I am :-)
Medjugorje is getting ready as in two days time we will be celebrating 26th Anniversary of Our Lady's Apparitions /click to see program/. We do not see much people during the day as the temperatures are over 100 and rising ! but in the evening they show up and village is full as usual, especially church area. This year also we are preparing for the Anniversary with Novena /click to see how to pray /
Many of the pilgrims will be coming tonight and tomorrow. Croatia has a long weekend so we are expecting a lot of Croatians coming form all over the country.
I will be putting some info letter, now I have to check on the baby :-)

God bless you Anita
