On June 25, 1981, in the tiny village of Medjugorje, located in Bosnia-Herzegovina, six Croatian children reported seeing an apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary. More than 35 million people from all over the world have now visited Medjugorje. Pope John Paul II and the Roman Catholic Church have acknowledged that this has become the greatest religious event of our time.
Forty five years later, Our Lady is still reportedly appearing, bringing a message of hope and peace to a troubled world.

“Dear children! May this time be a time of prayer for peace. I am calling you to renew in your families the prayer of the Rosary for my intentions, so that I may be able to multiply your prayers and intercede for you before the Most High, for Him, to heed your prayers and to give you peace. I am with you and like never before. I pray for you and with you, my little children. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Ecclesiastical Approval – Official Vatican Ruling:
On September 19, 2024, public veneration and pilgrimages to Medjugorje were approved under a commission by Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández, Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. This was a Nihil obstat (approved by Pope Francis.) It allow Catholics to safely practice devotion and make pilgrimages to Medjugorje because of abundant spiritual fruits (such as conversions and increased confessions), without confirming that the visions of the Virgin Mary are authentic or supernatural. While the alleged apparitions were not formally declared as of supernatural origin, under the Vatican’s guidance as of 9/19/24 the faithful are free to give adherence in a prudent manner to the spiritual phenomena in Medjugorje.

Queen of Peace Apostolate board members visited Vicka Ivankovic-Mijatovic, one of the six visionaries to whom the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared on June 25, 1981. Vicka is one of three who still sees the Blessed Mother every day. The other three visionaries each have one yearly apparition.
Vicka spoke for more than thirty minutes, sharing Our Blessed mothers messages, and then prayed with us for all our intentions.
