The Youth Festival in Medjugorje Day 5!!
August 5, 2024
The Dedication of the Basilica of St. Mary Major
Dear Family of Mary!
This is Day 5 of the Youth Festival! It is August 5th and this is a special day for Our Lady. Many years ago (1984), she revealed to the visionaries that August 5 was the date of her actual birth. She asked them to celebrate with her this way:
In anticipation of this day Our Lady had said:
"The priest who will hear confession will have great joy on that day."
During these 3 days of fasting and continuous prayer the visionaries say the Blessed Virgin was: Very Joyful. Our Lady repeated:
"I am very happy, continue, continue. Continue to pray and to fast."
Her joy seemed to have reached a peak Sunday, August 5th. Like a flower when it blooms, and full of joy, Our Lady said:
"Continue, continue, open your hearts, ask God and I will ask for you."
Sunday, August 5, 1984
The celebration of the second millennium of Mary's birthday was preceded by three days of fasting and continuous prayer. Seventy priests heard confessions without rest; there were a great number of conversions.
"Never in my life have I cried with sorrow, as I have cried this evening with joy. Thank you!"
We can spend this day, August 5, 2024, in profound prayer of thanksgiving for Our Lady's Birth, and for her presence with us in Medjugorje even today!! This is God's great gift to us!! Thank you, dearest Mother!!!
