Medjugorje is not just a pilgrimage, it’s an immersion experience into a rhythm of prayer in a setting steeped in the Lord’s peace. Many have said it is the closest to heaven on earth they have experienced. Pilgrims on this grace-filled pilgrimage will enjoy the guidance and leadership of Ann Vucic, early witness to the Medjugorje apparitions, along with the spiritual guidance of Fr. Dan Reehil of Radio Maria, who credits Medjugorje as a major part of his own conversion and vocation.

Medjugorje
"I have been challenged to live out the Messages of Medj by living them in my own life and sharing them with others."
Jennie G.Pilgrim from Brentwood, TN
Medjugorje
"All were very knowledgeable, pleasant, and seemed to have the interest of the pilgrims clearly in focus. I also appreciated their faith and commitment to making this a spiritual experience for us.
Loved the way meals were prepared and served; promoting a 'family' atmosphere."
Barbara B.Pilgrim from Florence, AL
Medjugorje
"I was SO influenced by sharing the time with the Universal Church. In Our Lady's message she called us to (paraphrasing) to be carriers of Peace and Joy .
So, for me I will try to Evangelize at every opportunity. I truly know that Our Lady loves me as does her Son. My heart is full and overflowing."
Pam F.Pilgrim from Nashville, TN
