The Miracle of the Sun during the 40th Anniversary Celebration
July 8, 2021
Dear Family of Mary!
“Dear children! My heart is joyful because through these years I see your love and openness to my call...” (June 25, 2021)
On
June 25th, the 40th Anniversary of Our Lady's coming to Medjugorje, we
sat amongst the thousands of pilgrims who had come from around the world
to be with Our Lady on this great anniversary! And at apparition time,
6:40 pm, the sun grew very large and began to pulsate over our heads.
It continued to do so throughout Mass, until it set. I believe that sun
was showing us how very joyful Our Lady was on that day! Her heart was
joyful because we had come to be with her on this important day!
By
coming, the pilgrims from the whole world showed their openness to Our
Lady's call. We showed her how much we love her and how much we desire
to respond to her call! Even though travel was not easy and carried
risks, we came! It was a beautiful reunion between the Mother and her
children!!
Let's
just receive Our Mother's joyful heart, as we contemplate what she has
given us over these 40 years. In silence, we can remember all she has
done for us. So many of us have had life-changing conversions in
Medjugorje. Our hearts have been changed, healed, cleansed and renewed
by her prayer and the ministry of her priests in confession.
So
many of us have found our vocations during our visits to Medjugorje!
Like Fr. Shawn Roberson and Fr. Benedict Croel, hundreds of men have
heard the call to become priests!! So many young women have found their
life as religious sisters. So many young couples have found their
vocation to marriage and family! So much fruit!!
So
many of us have heard the call to prayer in Medjugorje! Prayer groups
have formed. So many of us go to daily Mass, and pray the Rosary daily!
So many of us now fast for peace and for Our Lady's intentions. So
many carry out works of mercy and evangelization - (One thinks of Mary's
Meals, Rachel's Vineyard, Youth 2000, etc.)
Let's
just give thanks today, for all the beautiful fruit we have received
from Our Lady's presence and guidance in Medjugorje. Especially we can
thank her that we were given the grace to love her and to be open to her
call. That is the best gift we have been given. We will thank God for
all eternity for having responded to her call!
In Jesus, Mary, and Joseph!

priests!!
