ALL MEDJUGORJE MESSAGES
1983


Medjugorje Visionaries, Mirjana, Vicka, Ivanka, 
Ivan, Marija, and Jakov (in front)

  
SATURDAY, JANUARY 1ST 1983 (The Feast of Holy Mary, Mother of God.)  Ivanka: "Are you still appearing to Mirjana?"  "After Christmas, I am no longer appearing to her for the present." (CP. 99).   

BEGINNING OF 1983:   Jelena asks the Blessed Virgin on the authenticity of the apparitions of the six seers, and on the sign which has been promised: "Pardon me, but you cannot know it; it is a special gift for them. You will have to believe it like all the others. In the meantime, everything that they say corresponds to truth." (Bo.38).    

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 5TH 1983:  Tomislav receives, from the four seers present (Ivan, Jakov, Maria and Vicka), the following information: Maria has received 7 secrets, Vicka 8, Jakov, Ivanka and Ivan 9, and Mirjana 10.  We do not know how long the apparitions will last, nor why she no longer appears to Mirjana after Christmas. The Gospa invites us constantly to prayer, to fasting, to conversion. She confirms her promises.

Ivan thinks that the apparitions have ceased for Mirjana because she did not pray enough outside of the apparitions. The Gospa probably did it so that Mirjana would learn to pray in the faith, he volunteers.  (According to other interpretations, the end of the apparitions would be, on the contrary, a sign of achievement and maturity.)  Questioned with respect to the time of the sign: Which month? Which year?  Ivan says: "It is forecast." (CP. 103-104).    

FRIDAY, JANUARY 7TH 1983:  Mary begins to tell her life to the visionaries. They are invited to write down her testimony. They will not be able to make it public until they have received her authorization. (CP. 105). This transmission will last:  for Jakov until April, for Ivanka, until May 22nd, for Maria, until July 17th.  Maria, who was still attending the school for hairdressers in Mostar, received only an abridged account, the days when she was in Medjugorje.  For Vicka, it lasted until April 10th, 1985: a long account which filled three notebooks. Up to this day, the seers have not received authorization to reveal these contents.    

MONDAY, JANUARY 10TH 1983:  Confidences from Mirjana to Father Tomislav Vlasic: "During the 18 months that I saw the Gospa, a great intimacy was established between us. I felt her maternal love. I could ask her all kinds of questions. Thus I asked her why God was so merciless in sending sinners to Hell for eternity?"

"Men who go to Hell no longer want to receive any benefit from God. They do not repent nor do they cease to swear and to blaspheme. They make up their mind to live in Hell and do not at all contemplate leaving it." (CAROL).  (Man's refusal is an irreversible choice.)

Questioned on the subject of Purgatory, the Blessed Virgin says:  "There is there, different levels of which the lowest are close to Hell and the highest gradually draw near to Heaven. It is not on all souls day, but at Christmas, that the greatest number of souls leave Purgatory. There are in Purgatory, souls who pray ardently to God, but for whom no relative or friend prays for them on earth. God makes them benefit from the prayers of other people. It happens that God permits them to manifest themselves in different ways, close to their relatives on earth, in order to remind men of the existence of Purgatory, and to solicit their prayers close to God who is just, but good. The majority go to Purgatory. Many go to Hell. A small number go directly to Heaven." (C. 103).   

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 12TH 1983:  Regarding an American television team: Will they be able to finish without difficulties?  "There will be some difficulties, but it will be for the glory of God." (CP. 108).    

TUESDAY, MARCH 1ST 1983:  To Jelena: "Transcribe all the lessons which I give you for the spiritual life; later you will deliver them to the authorities of the Church." (T. 64).  

APRIL 4TH 1983 (Easter Monday)  A message addressed by Jelena to Tomislav, who had written on Good Friday, April 1st, a letter of protest on the subject of the problems suffered in the parish. I was expecting the corrections from a Canonist and no one knew anything except the Pastor he observes in detail. Monday, Jelena appeared without knowing anything, and tells me:  "Do not have recourse to anyone. When you have a problem, you must remain smiling and praying. When God begins a work, no one will stop it."  Father Vlasic judges this fundamental message as per (VB. 4, p. 100), the Madonna does not stop telling us: "Pray, fast, and allow Got to act."  Jelena transmits the message from the Blessed Virgin: "Do not pity anyone. If the police cause you some anxiety, continue on your way joyful and calm. Pray for them.  When God begins His work, no one can stop it. (CP.127-bis).   Father Vlasic notes in the Parish Chronicle the internal locutions which have been received by Jelena after December 15, 1982. The Madonna's message:  "Hurry to be converted. Do not wait for the great sign. For the unbelievers, it will then be too late to be converted. For you who have the faith, this time constitutes a great opportunity for you to be converted, and to deepen your faith. Fast on bread and water before every feast, and prepare yourselves through prayer.  Fast once a week on bread and water in honor of the Holy Spirit outside of Friday.  Have the largest possible number of persons pray and fast during the novena of the Holy Spirit, so that it may spread over the church. Fast and pray for the Bishop." (CP. 127 bis).  

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 20TH 1983:  To Jelena, the Blessed Virgin, in tears: "I give all the graces to those who commit grave sins, but they do not convert. Pray! Pray for them! Do not wait for Friday. Pray now. Today your prayers and your penance are necessary to me." (CP. 130).  

THURSDAY, APRIL 21ST 1983:  "You (the visionaries), must behave well; be pious and set a good example for the faithful."  Jakov admits that the Blessed Virgin has made remarks to him several times, concerning his conduct. She has taught him how to participate at Mass, to pray, and to behave around others. (CP. 130).  

SUNDAY, APRIL 24TH 1983:  Message for an Italian doctor who is present: "I bless him just as those who work with him at the hospital in Milan, for everything they are doing. Have them continue, and pray. I bless the sick of this hospital, just like the sick for whom you have prayed this evening, and those for whom you will pray." (Bo. 11).  

MONDAY, APRIL 25TH 1983:  Message received by Jelena, these last days: "Be converted! It will be too late when the sign comes. Beforehand, several warnings will be given to the world. Have people hurry to be converted. I need your prayers and your penance." (CP. 131).  "My heart is burning with love for you. It suffices for you to be converted. To ask questions is unimportant. Be converted. Hurry to proclaim it. Tell everyone that it is my wish, and that I do not cease repeating it. Be converted, be converted. It is not difficult for me to suffer for you. I beg you, be converted. I will pray to my Son to spare you the punishment. Be converted without delay. You do not know the plans of God; you will not be able to know them. You will not know what God will send, not what He will do. I ask you only to be converted. That is what I wish. Be converted! Be ready for everything, but, be converted. That is all I wish to say to you. Renounce everything. All that is part of conversion. Goodbye, and may peace be with you." (CP. 132).  

FRIDAY, APRIL 29TH 1983:  Marijana, (aged 11) sees the Blessed Virgin at the same time as Jelena, but she does not hear her words.  Jelena: "Why doesn't Marijana hear?"  "I do not want to separate you." (CP. 133). (Does the Gospa wish to mean that these two adolescents compliment each other?)    

THURSDAY, MAY 5TH 1983:  With respect to a sick person from Vienna: The doctor has diagnosed schizophrenic. Some priests think it is a question of diabolical possession.  "It is a diabolic possession. One can succeed only through prayer." (CP 135).  

WEDNESDAY, MAY 25TH 1983:  To Jelena: "Assemble about twenty young people who are ready to follow Jesus, without reservation. Bring them together within a months notice. I will initiate them into the spiritual life. They can likewise be more than twenty. Even some adults and children can participate, all those who will accept the rule. I will ask these people to do penance for certain intentions. They will fast and pray for the Bishop. They will give up what they cherish the most, drink, coffee, pleasures, television. It is necessary to have persons who wish to consecrate themselves more specifically to prayer, and to fast. I will give them the rules to follow." (see June 16, 1983) The persons who will follow these rules, will be consecrated whatever their state in life may be. (CP 136). 

SATURDAY, MAY 28TH 1983:  To Jelena: "It is very beautiful to remain Thursdays, for the adoration of my Son in the Blessed Sacrament of the altar. It is likewise beautiful to venerate the cross each Friday. I wish that every Saturday, which is the day that the Church had dedicated to me, you will consecrate to me at least a quarter of an hour. Meditate during this time, on my life, my messages, and pray." (CP. 141).  

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1ST 1983:  "Dear Children: I hoped that the world would begin to be converted on its own. Do now, everything you can, so that the world can be converted." (CP. 137).  

THURSDAY, JUNE 2ND 1983:  "Read what has been written about Jesus. Meditate on it, and convey it to others." (CP. 137). 

FRIDAY, JUNE 3RD 1983:  Father Vlasic has begun to form a prayer group requested by the Virgin on May 25th. (Jakov, Vicka, Ivanka ask):  "What do you expect of Fr. Tomislav? Has he begun well?"  "Yes, it is good. Have him continue."  [The visionaries ask:] "What should one do so that people will not drive from here, the priests who work with faith and love?"  "Pray and fast for this intention. I will tell you when the moment comes, what you must do."  [The visionaries ask:] "Father Tomislav wants to call the parish to prayer and fasting, so that the church recognizes that the events here are supernatural.  Is it a good way?"  "Yes, it is a good way. Have the parish pray for this gift. Have them pray also for the gift of the Holy Spirit so that all those who come here will feel the presence of God." (CP. 138). 

FRIDAY, JUNE 10TH 1983:  Jelena, Marijana and Anita, (age 11), are arguing. The first two make peace, but Anita refuses. The other two enter the church. Anita follows them, and suddenly extends to them, her hand. An indescribable joy penetrates their hearts.   "I had been waiting for quite a while for your success. Continue in this manner, says the Gospa." (CP. 142-143).  

SUNDAY, JUNE 12TH 1983:  Ivan: "May the priests begin new work around the church or must they request authorization from the authorities?"  "Do not begin the work until receiving permission from the authorities. Otherwise, someone will inform the latter and the works would be forbidden. Go, and kindly request the authorization. It will be given to you." (CP. 145).    

TUESDAY, JUNE 14TH 1983:  Ivan: "What do you wish that the priests preach during the ten anniversary days of the first apparitions?"  "Have them do what they think is best. It would be good to remind the faithful of the events which have been revealed here in relation to my coming. Have them remind them the reasons for my coming here." (CP.145).  

THURSDAY, JUNE 16TH 1983:  On May 25, 1983, the Blessed Virgin has repeated her desire that a prayer group, totally abandoned to Jesus, be formed. On June 16th she dictated to Jelena the rules for this group:  "Renounce all passions and inordinate desires. Avoid television, particularly evil programs, excessive sports, the unreasonable enjoyment of food and drink, alcohol, tobacco, etc.  Abandon yourselves to God without any restrictions.  Definitely eliminate all anguish. Whoever abandons himself to God does not have room in his heart for anguish. Difficulties will persist, but they will serve for spiritual growth and will render glory to God.

"Love your enemies. Banish from your heart, hatred, bitterness, preconceived judgments. Pray for your enemies and call the Divine blessing over them.  Fast twice a week on bread and water. Reunite the group at least once a week.  Devote at least three hours to prayer daily, of which at least, half an hour in the morning and half an hour in the evening. Holy Mass and the prayer of the Rosary are included in this time of prayer. Set aside moments of prayer in the course of the day, and each time that circumstances permit it, receive Holy Communion. Pray with great meditation. Do not look at your watch all the time, but allow yourself to be led by the grace of God. Do not concern yourself too much with the things of this world, but entrust all that in prayer to Our Heavenly Father. If one is very preoccupied, he will not be able to pray well because internal serenity is lacking. God will contribute to lead to a successful end, the things of here below, if one strives to do his utmost in working on his own.  

"Those who attend school or go to work must pray half an hour in the morning and in the evening, and, if possible, participate in the Eucharist. It is necessary to extend the spirit of prayer to daily work (that is to say, to accompany work with prayer.)  

"Be prudent because the Devil tempts all those who have made a resolution to consecrate themselves to God, most particularly, those people. He will suggest to them that they are praying very much, they are fasting too much, that they must be like other young people and go in search of pleasures. Have them not listen to him, nor obey him. It is to the voice of the Blessed Virgin that they should pay attention. When they will be strengthened in their faith, the Devil will no longer be able to seduce them.  Pray very much for the Bishop and for those who are responsible for the church. No less than half of their prayers and sacrifices must be devoted to this intention."

To Jelena:  "I have come to tell the world that God is truth; He exists.  True happiness and the fullness of life are in Him. I have come here as Queen of Peace to tell the world that peace is necessary for the salvation of the world. In God, one finds true joy from which true peace if derived." (L1, 100).

SPRING 1983:  "Hasten your conversion. Do not await the sign, which has been announced, for those who do not believe. It will be too late. You who believe, be converted and deepen your faith." (L1, 99).  To Jelena, concerning Anita, to whom the Blessed Virgin appeared after Good Friday, and who only seldom gets together with Jelena and Marijana, because of her many obligations:  "If she cannot come because of her responsibilities, have her pray for a quarter of an hour at least, and I will appear to her and bless her."   

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 22ND 1983:  To Jelena: "Love your enemies and bless them!" (L1. 100).  

FRIDAY, JUNE 24TH 1983:  "The sign will come, you must not worry about it. The only thing that I would want to tell you is to be converted. Make that known to all my children as quickly as possible. No pain, no suffering is too great to me in order to save you. I will pray to my Son not to punish the world; but I beseech you, be converted.  You cannot imagine what is going to happen nor what the Eternal Father will send to earth. That is why you must be converted! Renounce everything. Do penance. Express my acknowledgement to all my children who have prayed and fasted. I carry all this to my Divine Son in order to obtain an alleviation of His justice against the sins of mankind." (C. 145 - 146). "I thank the people who have prayed and fasted. Persevere and help me to convert the world." (CP. 151).   

SUNDAY, JUNE 26TH 1983:  "Love your enemies. Pray for them and bless them." (MM. 24).

FRIDAY, JULY 1ST 1983 (toward 11 o'clock at night on Krizevac):  "I thank all those who have responded to my call. I bless all of you. I bless each of you. In these days, I ask you to pray for my intentions. Go in the peace of God." (Bl. 81). 

THE BEGINNING OF JULY 1983:  Concerning the tensions whi:ch involved the diocese: "Fast two days a week for the intentions of the Bishop, who bears a heavy responsibility. If there is a need to, I will ask for a third day. Pray each day for the Bishop." (L2. 134).

MONDAY, JULY 4TH 1983:  To Jelena:  "You have begun to pray three hours a day, but you look at your watch, preoccupied with your work. Be concerned with only the essential. Let yourself be guided by the Holy Spirit in depth, then your work will go well. Do not hurry. Let yourself be guided and you will see that everything will be accomplished well." (L1. 100).    

TUESDAY, JULY 26TH 1983:  To Jelena: "Be on your guard. This period is dangerous for you. The Devil is trying to lead you astray from your way. Those who give themselves to God will be the object of attacks. (L. 2. 134).  To Maria: "Dear children, today I would like to invite you to constant prayer and penance. Particularly, have the young people of this parish become more active in their prayer." (F2, 113).

SATURDAY, AUGUST 6TH 1983:  On orders from the Bishop, Father Pervan, the parish priest put an end to the custom which calls for the seers beginning the prayers of the Rosary and the seven Our Father's, Hail Mary's and Glory Be's. Jakov questioned the Blessed Virgin on this subject:  "If it is so, then do not go against it so as not to provoke any quarrels. If it is possible, talk about it tomorrow among yourselves. All of you come to an agreement beforehand." (CP. 165).    

FRIDAY, AUGUST 12TH 1983:  This was an exceptionally long apparition (38 minutes). The Blessed Virgin gives the seers instructions to guide their lives which only concerned them: "Pray more for your spiritual life. Do your utmost in this sense. Pray for your Bishop." (CP. 158).  

MONDAY, AUGUST 15TH 1983:  To Jelena:  "See how I am happy here! There are many who have come to honor me. In the meanwhile, do not forget that in other places there are still more persons who hurt me and offend me. (CP 160).  "Do not be in anxiety. May peace unite your hearts. Every disorder comes from Satan." To the young people who are returning to school: "Be careful not to diminish the spirit of prayer." (L1. 101). M"Satan is enraged against those who fast and those who are converted." (U. 101).

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16TH 1983:  "Pray, pray, pray! Do not be discouraged. Be in peace because God gives you the grace to defeat Satan." (Bl. 288).  "In my messages, I recommend to everyone, and to the Holy Father in particular to spread the message which I have received from my Son here at Medjugorje. I wish to entrust to the Pope, the word with which I came here: 'MIR, (peace),' which he must spread everywhere. And here is a message which is especially for him: That he bring together the Christian people, through his words and his preaching; that he spread particularly among the young people, the messages which he has received from the Father in his prayers, when God inspires him."

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 21ST 1983:  "The important thing is to pray to the Holy Spirit, so that He may descend on you. When one has Him, one has everything. People make a mistake when they turn only to the saints to request something. (L1. 101).    

MONDAY, OCTOBER 24TH 1983:  To Jelena, for the prayer group: "If you pray, a source of life will flow from your hearts. If you pray with strength, if you pray with faith, you will receive graces from this source, and your group will be strengthened." (Ba. 45).

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27TH 1983:  To Jelena: "Pray, pray, pray. You do not learn anything from chatter, but only from prayer. If someone asks you about me, and about what I say, answer: 'That doesn't explain anything. It is in praying that we will understand better.'" (Ba. 45).    

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 28TH 1983:  To Jelena: "I see that you are tired. I wish to support you in your effort, to take you in my arms so that you may be close to me.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29TH 1983:  To Jelena: "I give you my heart; receive it! I would not want to distress you, nor to stop talking to you, but I cannot stay always with you. You have to get used to it. In the meantime, I wish to be constantly with you, from the bottom of my heart. It is necessary to pray very much, not to say: 'If today we have not prayed, it is nothing serious.'  You must strive to pray. Prayer is the only road which leads to peace. If you pray and fast, you will obtain everything that you ask for." (Ba. 46).  

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 30TH 1983:  To Jelena: "Why do you not put your trust in me? I know that you have been praying for a long time, but really, surrender yourself.  Abandon your concerns to Jesus. Listen to what He says in the Gospel: And who among you, through his anxiety, is able to add a single cubit, to the length of his life.'" (Mt. 6:27).  "Pray also, in the evening when you have finished your day. Sit down in your room, and say to Jesus: 'Thank you.'  If in the evening you fall asleep in peace, and in prayer, in the morning you will walk up thinking of Jesus. You will then be able to pray for peace, but if you fall asleep in distraction, the day after will be misty, and you will forget even to pray that day." (Ba. 46).  

MONDAY, OCTOBER 31ST 1983:  To Jelena: "I know that you prayed today, and that you did all your work while praying. Still, I have a particular intention for which I am asking you to say each day, seven Our Father's, seven Hail Mary's, and the Creed." (Ba. 47).

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 6TH 1983:  To Jelena: "Where are the prayers which you addressed to me?  My clothes were sparkling. Behold them soaked with tears. Oh, if you would know how the world today is plunged into sin. It seems to you that the world sins no longer, because here, you live in a peaceful world where there is no confusion or perversity.  If you know how lukewarm they are in their faith, how many do not listen to Jesus. Oh, if you knew how much I suffer, you would sin no more. Oh, how I need your prayers. Pray!" (Ba. 47).    

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 7TH 1983:  To Jelena: "Do not go to confession through habit, to remain the same after it. No, it is not good. Confession should give an impulse to your faith. It should stimulate you and bring you closer to Jesus. If confession does not mean anything for you, really, you will be converted with great difficulty." (Ba. 47).

THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 17TH 1983:  To Jelena:  "Pray! If I always ask you to pray, do not think that your prayers are not good. But I invite you to prolong your personal prayer, to pray more intensely for the others." (Ba. 49).

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 21ST 1983:  To Jelena: "Tuesday, that is tomorrow, the whole group will find peace in prayer. All its members will be invigorated in prayer, as it is the wish of Jesus.

Amen"
