Apparition to the visionary Ivan
At the end of the apparition, Ivan shared what he experienced
(translation from English):
This evening, at 6:40 p.m., in his home in Medjugorje, Ivan Dragičević received the apparition of the Queen of Peace. The encounter was profound, full of light and joy. Ivan shared with those present and with all of us the words and gestures of the Madonna.
The Virgin appeared very joyful, greeting everyone with great affection:
“Praised be Jesus, my dear children.”
She looked lovingly from left to right and from right to left, extending her hands over all of us in prayer. In a special way, she prayed for the bishop present, for all the gathered priests, and for each of the faithful. Then she prayed over the sick.
In her message, the Madonna said:
“Dear children, today I want to invite you to pray more for peace, to open your hearts to peace. I come here and present myself to you as the Queen of Peace. My Son sends me to you, He who is the King of Peace. Therefore, open yourselves to peace. Pray, especially in this time when the world is going through difficult moments: it is a time of great challenges, a time that Satan wants to use for himself, a time in which he desires to tear many hearts away from Jesus.”
“Pray, pray, pray.”
The Madonna blessed everyone with her motherly blessing, and she also blessed the religious objects that had been brought for her to bless.
Ivan entrusted to her all prayer intentions, the needs of families, and in particular the difficulties of the country of the bishop who was present. He also recommended all those who had joined in prayer.
Finally, the Madonna turned her gaze toward the Church of St. James, praying over all the participants in the evening program, both faithful and priests, and she smiled in the light of the Cross, a sign of hope and the victory of love.
Ivan concluded:
“I tried to share with you as faithfully as possible what we experienced in this encounter with our Heavenly Mother. Thank you all for your prayers. Let us remain perseverant.”
Queen of Peace, pray for us.
BISHOP JAN SOBIL SAID:
“I PHYSICALLY FELT THE MOTHER OF GOD TOUCH ME!”
“I know the visionaries; I was just a few meters away from them during the Virgin’s apparitions!
I watched them very carefully! I felt it was all real!
I physically felt the Mother of God touch me, and then, after the apparitions, the visionary Ivan Dragičević told me he saw the Virgin Mary come toward me, place her hands on me, and then pray for me!
Not just because he told me — I truly felt it.”
