This is the sixteenth installment, just one more to come.
Medjugorje, does not come to mind as a vacation spot. But it has inspired visiting pilgrims to spread the Madonna’s words.
For young people, who have not lived more than thirty years, this area of the world is typically not on their radar. For those who have lived a bit longer, there remains a dark mental imprint. A remembrance that recalls brutality inflicted on people within this region as they experienced civil war in the 1990’s. Fighting caused by the breaking up of Yugoslavia.
For me, the news reporting during that period of the civil war did little to help explain the confusing jumble of puzzling information that ominously included atrocities, genocide and war crimes.
Yet this area is where the Madonna appeared. She offered to the world a surprising counterpoint to humanities deeds. It’s amazing to me that even during that civil war pilgrims from around the world continued to converge on Medjugorje, which seemed to be located in the middle of the warfare.
In May of 2018, Pope Francis installed an archbishop to Medjugorje in order to help guide the daily pastoral care for the millions of pilgrims who go to Medjugorje annually.
Also found in this reading is how the early pilgrims spilled out from Medjugorje and brought back to their own communities renewed spiritual energies and in doing so they too benefit humanity on local scale.
And the constant procession continues…
