| The "Blue Cross" marks the place of the first Apparition. Mirjana now receives most of her monthly, public apparitions there. |
THE BEGINNING OF 1984: For the intention of the pilgrims: "When
you are in the room of the apparitions or at the church, you should not
preoccupy yourself with taking pictures. You should rather use the time to pray
to Jesus, especially in those moments of particular grace during the
apparitions." (T.58).
MONDAY, JANUARY 2ND 1984: "Why have you stopped saying the prayer
to the Holy Spirit. I have asked you to pray always and at all times so that
the Holy Spirit may descend over all of you. Begin again to pray for
that." "We had stopped saying
the prayer to the Holy Spirit thinking that it was said only until
Christmas." (Ba.55).
TUESDAY, JANUARY 3RD 1984: "My children, pray; I say it again,
pray! Know that in your life the most important thing is prayer."
(J).

to ask you for." (J).
SUNDAY, JANUARY 8TH 1984 (Feast
of the Epiphany): "My children,
pray! I say it again, pray! I will say it to you again. Do not think that Jesus
is going to manifest Himself again in the manger; friends, He is born again in
your hearts." (DN 1, 30).
SUNDAY, JANUARY 15TH 1984: "I know that I speak to you very often
about prayer, but know that there are many people in the world who do not pray;
who do not even know what to say, in prayer." (J).
TUESDAY, JANUARY 17TH 1984: "Pray and fast! I wish that in your
hearts prayer and fasting flourish." (J).
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18TH
1984: "I wish to engrave in every
heart the sign of love. If you love all mankind, then there is peace in you. If
you are at peace with all men, it is the kingdom of love." (DN 1, 30). To Jelena: "Pray and fast! For the intention of the group: Have everyone
get up early, some to go to school, others to go to work, still others to help
the poor like themselves, also those who need help." (J).
THURSDAY, JANUARY 19TH 1984:
"Pray and fast, because without prayer you cannot do anything."
(Ba55).

half an hour." (Ba55).

most three times a week. May they not prolong it." (Ba56).

much. With respect to you, pray! I desire to see you happy." (Ba56).
FRIDAY, JANUARY 27TH 1984:
"Pray and fast. I wish that you deepen and continue your life in prayer.
Every morning say the prayer of consecration to the Heart of Mary. Do it in the
family. Recite each morning the Angelus, five Our Father's, Hail Mary's, and
Glory Be's in honor of the holy Passion and a sixth one for our Holy Father,
the Pope. Then say the Creed and the prayer to the Holy Spirit. And, if it is
possible, it would be well to pray a rosary." (Ba56).

I wish to be with you." (Ba57).

God gives you the greatest graces when you pray." (Ba57).
TUESDAY, JANUARY 31ST 1984: To
Jelena: "Pray! Do not think of anything, pray. Do not think of anything
else except of those for whom you pray. Then prayer will be better and you will
be faithful to it." To the group: "Continue to
help the poor, the sick, and to pray for the dead. You should not feel any
fear. Let all free themselves completely and let them abandon their hearts to
me so that I can be with them. Have them listen to me and discover me in the
poor, and in every person." (Ba57).
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 1ST 1984:
"It is raining at this time, and you say: 'It is not reasonable to go to
church in this slush. Why is it raining so much? Why doesn 't the rain stop?'
Do not ever speak like that. You have not ceased to pray so that God may send
you rain which makes the earth rich. Then, do not turn against the blessing
from God. Above all, thank him through prayer and fasting." (Ba 57).
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2ND 1984:
"Pray, because I need many prayers. Be reconciled, because I desire
reconciliation among you and more love for each other, like brothers. I wish
that prayer, peace, and love bloom in you." (Ba57).
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3RD 1984: To
Jelena: "It is up to you to pray and I will take care of the rest. You can
not even imagine how powerful God is. That is why you pray. Pray because he
wants to be with you and wants to cleanse you from all sin." Our Lady gave this message on the request
that we address her on the arrival of a document from the Bishop. (Jan. 13,
1984) Reference 54-84: "The matter of the diary of Vicka Ivankovic on the
apparitions," asking Mary, consequently, what we should do.
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 4TH 1984:
"Pray, because prayer is very necessary to you. With prayer. your body and
soul will find peace. There are some young people who have consecrated
themselves to me. But there are in the parish, some persons, who have not
entirely given themselves. As soon as
mass has ended, they are in a hurry to leave the church. That is not good. That
way they will never be able to give themselves completely. It is not good for
them to linger about the church. One must be pious and set a good example for
others, in order to awaken in them the faith. It is necessary to pray as much
as possible while offering your heart. They should consecrate themselves in
order to become truly better." (Ba5 8).
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 5TH 1984:
"Pray and fast. I desire to live in your hearts. And especially for the prayer group. Some of them still have a week of rest. They
do not fast ... others have come here and fast on Wednesday, Thursday, and
Friday; others help the poor and the sick; others love everybody and want to
discover Jesus in each one. Some are not convinced, others are. They are mine.
See how they honor me. Lead them to me so that I may bless them."
(Ba59).
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6TH 1984:
"Pray, pray, I ask of you." (Ba59).
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 8TH 1984: To
Jelena: "From you, I expect only prayer. Thus, pray." (Ba59).
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 9TH 1984:
"Pray, pray! How many persons have followed other beliefs or sects and
have abandoned Jesus Christ. They create their own gods; they adore idols. How
that hurts me! If they could be converted. Like the unbelievers, they are many.
That will change only if you help me with your prayers." (Ba59).
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10TH 1984:
"Pray and fast! I desire humility from you. But you can become humble only
through prayer and fasting." (Ba59).
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 11TH 1984:
"Open your hearts to me, I desire to bless them fully." (Ba59).
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 12TH 1984:
"Pray and fast! I ask of you. Pray for the peace and humility of your
hearts." (Ba59).
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 13TH 1984: To
Jelena: "Fast and pray! Give me your hearts. I desire to change them
completely I desire for them to be pure." (Ba60).
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 14TH 1984:
"Pray and fast! I desire to purify your hearts completely. I wish to make
you happy." (Ba60).
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 15TH 1984:
(The villagers noticed an icy wind that evening. Caritas) "The wind is my
sign. I will come in the wind. When the wind blows, know that I am with you.
You have learned that the cross represents Christ; it is a sign of him. It is
the same for the crucifix you have in your home. For me, it is not the same.
When it is cold, you come to church, you want to offer everything to God. I am,
then, with you. I am with you in the wind. Do not be afraid. (Ba60).
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17TH 1984:
"My children, pray! The world has been drawn into a great whirlpool. It
does not know what it is doing. It does not realize in what sense it is
sinking. It needs your prayers so that I can pull it out of this danger.
(Ba60).
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 20TH 1984:
"Pray and fast! I desire to purify you and to save you. For that, help me
with your prayers." (Ba60).
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 21ST 1984:
"Pray and fast! I expect generosity and prayers from your hearts."
(Ba60).
THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 23RD 1984:
"I hold all of you in my arms. You are mine. I need your prayers so that
you may be mine. I desire to be all yours and for you to be all mine. I receive
all your prayers. I receive them with joy." (Ba6l).
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 24TH 1984:
"Pray and fast! I desire to be with you always. I desire to stay in your
hearts always and for you to stay in mine." (Ba6l).
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25TH 1984:

desire to give more than to you. Come to me all of you. Stay with me. I want to
be your Mother. Come, I desire all of you." (J).
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 26TH 1984:
"Pray and fast! Know that I love you. I hold all of you on my knees."
(J).

"Do not be tired. I desire to be with you." (J).
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 28TH 1984:
"Pray and fast! Love everyone on earth, just as you love yourselves."
For the intention of the group:
"Have each one decide alone. In the meantime, it would be good, that this
week they fast on Thursday. Have them read the Bible and meditate on it."
(J).
WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 29TH 1984:
"Pray! It may seem strange to you that I always speak of prayer. And yet I
say: pray! Why do you hesitate? In Holy Scripture, you have heard say: 'Do not
worry about tomorrow, each day will have its own worries.' (Mt. 6:34). Then do
not worry about the other days. Be content with prayer, I your Mother, will
take care of the rest." (Ba6l-62).
THURSDAY, MARCH 1ST 1984: Message
to Marijana: "Pray and fast. When I tell you to pray, do not think that
you have to pray more, but pray. Let prayer and faith awaken in your
hearts." (Ba62).
THE BEGINNING OF THURSDAY MESSAGES "FOR THE PARISH"
THURSDAY, MARCH 1ST 1984: To Maria, the first message of Thursday, addressed to the
parish: "Dear children, I have
chosen particularly this parish because I wish to guide it. I watch over it with
love. I would like for all of you to be mine. I thank you for having responded
this evening to my call. I would like for you to be always with me and my Son.
Every Thursday I will give a special message for you."
(NB. These messages of Thursday
have been widely disseminated, and have been edited by MM, and in our
translation, in Medjugorje, Paris, DDB, 1987, p.26-90 L3)
"Dear children, today I ask
you to read the Bible in your homes, every day. Put it in a very visible place
in your home, that way it will encourage all to prayer." (M53).
"Thursday (day of the
Eucharist), may each one find his way to fast. He who smokes, may abstain from
smoking; he who drinks alcohol, have him not drink. Have each one give up
something which is dear to him. May these recommendations be conveyed to the
parish." (DN 1, 31).
To Jelena: "Each Thursday,
read again the passage of Matthew 6: 24-34, before the most Blessed Sacrament,
or if it is not possible to come to church, do it with your family." (F2,
104).
MONDAY, MARCH 5TH 1984: To
Jelena: "Pray and fast! Ask the Holy Spirit to renew your souls, to renew
the entire world." (DN 1 31).
THURSDAY, MARCH 8TH 1984: Message
to the parish: "Dear children, be converted in the parish. It is my second
wish. Thus all those who will come here will be able to be converted. Thank you
for having responded to my call."
LENT 1984 (March 7 - April 22)
"Do not be afraid for yourselves, you are already saved. Pray rather for
those who are in sin and who do not believe." (T.57).
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 14TH 1984:
"Pray and fast so that the kingdom of God may come among you. Let my Son
set you aglow with His fire." (DN 1,31).
THURSDAY, MARCH 15TH 1984: To
Maria, for the parish: "This evening, dear children, I am particularly
grateful to you for your presence. Adore continuously, the Most Blessed
Sacrament. I am always present when Christians are in adoration. They then
receive some particular graces." (DN 5, 75). "Dear children, pray!
All agitation comes from Satan. Your prayer should lead to peace." (BN
18,22).
SATURDAY, MARCH 17TH 1984: To
Jelena, during the novena in preparation for the Annunciation: "Pray and
fast, so that during this novena, God will fill you with His power." (DN
1,31).
MONDAY, MARCH 19TH 1984:
"Dear children, sympathize with me! Pray, pray, pray!" (B. )

Jelena: "Today I rejoice with all my angels. The first part of my program
has been achieved." Then, while
crying: "There are so many men who live in sin. Here there are likewise

(BN 18,22).
THURSDAY, MARCH 22ND 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children, this evening I ask you in a
special way during this Lenten season, to honor the wounds which my Son has
received from this parish. Unite yourselves to my prayers for the intention of
this parish, so that its sufferings become tolerable. Thank you for responding
to my call." (F2, 123). "Pray each day the 'Veni Creator Spiritus'
(Come Holy Ghost) and the 'Angelus.' God has given each one the will to decide
for himself. My wish is for all to be converted, but I do not want to force
anyone." (BN 18,22). To Jelena:
"Yesterday evening I said that the first wish of my plan, was
realized." (DN 1,31).
SUNDAY, MARCH 25TH 1984
(Annunciation) the 1,000th apparition at Medjugorje: "Rejoice with me and
with my angels because a part of my plan has already been realized. Many have
been converted, but many do not want to be converted. Pray." After these words, the Blessed Virgin began
to cry." (C.148).
TUESDAY, MARCH 27TH 1984: To
Jelena: "In the group, some have given themselves up to God so that He may
guide them. Let the will of God be realized in you." (DN 1,31).
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 28TH 1984:
"Many persons come here out of curiosity and not as pilgrims." (BN
18,23).
THURSDAY, MARCH 29TH 1984: A
message for the parish: "Dear children, this evening I would like to
invite you to persevere in your trials. Even today the All Powerful suffers
because of your sins. When sufferings occur, offer them as a sacrifice to
God." (DN 5,76).
FRIDAY, MARCH 30TH 1984: "I
wish that your hearts would be united to mine, like my heart is united to that
of my Son." (DN 1,32). To Jelena:
"My children, I wish that the holy mass be for you the gift of the day.
Attend it, wish for it to begin. Jesus gives Himself to you during the mass.
Thus, look forward to that moment when you are cleansed. Pray very much so that
the Holy Spirit will renew your parish. If people attend mass with
lukewarmness, they will return to their homes cold, and with an empty
heart." (DN 1,31-32).
TUESDAY, APRIL 3RD 1984: To
Jelena: "I ask for you to pray for the conversion of all men. For that, I
need your prayers." (DN 1,32).
THURSDAY, APRIL 5TH 1984: To
Maria, for the parish: "Dear children, this evening I ask you very
specially, to venerate the heart of my Son, Jesus. Make reparation for the
injury inflicted on the Heart of my Son. This heart has been wounded through
all kinds of sin. If you would be strong in the faith, Satan would not be able
to do anything against you. Begin to walk the path of my messages. Be
converted, be converted, be converted." (BN 18,23).
SUNDAY, APRIL 8TH 1984: "I
ask you to pray for the conversion of everyone. For that, I need your
prayers." (M 29).
THURSDAY, APRIL 12TH 1984: A
message for the parish: "Dear children, this evening I ask you to stop
your slandering and to pray for unity, because my Son and I have a special
project for this parish. Prepare yourselves in a special way for Holy
Saturday." (BN 18,24).
HOLY WEEK APRIL 15TH-22ND 1984:
To Jelena: "Raise your hands and open your hearts. Now, at the time of the
Resurrection, Jesus wishes to give you a special gift. This gift of my Son is
my gift. Here it is. You will be subjected to trials and you will endure them
with great ease. We will be ready to show you how to escape from them if you
accept us. Do not say that the Holy Year has ended and that there is no need to
pray. On the contrary, double your prayers, because the Holy Year is just
another step ahead. At this time, the risen Jesus appeared. Rays of light came
forth from His wounds. He said: "Receive my graces and tell the whole
world that there is no happiness except through Me." (M 29).
HOLY THURSDAY, APRIL 19TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children, share my compassion; pray, pray,
pray!" To Jelena: "I'm going to reveal a spiritual secret
to you: if you want to be stronger than evil, make yourself a plan of personal
prayer. Take a certain time in the morning, read a text from Holy Scripture,
anchor the Divine word in your heart, and strive to live it during the day,
particularly during the moment of trials. In this way, you will be stronger
than evil." (Bl. 186). That same day, the Blessed Virgin had
"dictated" to Jelena the following prayer:
HOW TO GIVE ONESELF TO MARY
MOTHER OF GOODNESS, OF LOVE AND OF MERCY
"Oh my Mother! Mother of goodness, love and mercy! I love you immensely, and I offer myself to you. Through your goodness, your love, And your mercy, save me!
"I wish to be yours. I love you immensely And I wish that you protect me. In my heart, oh mother of goodness, Give me your goodness, So that I go to Heaven.
"I ask you for your immense love That you may give me the grace That I will be able to love each one Just like you loved Jesus Christ. I ask you in grace That I be able to be merciful to you.
"I offer myself completely to you And I wish that you will be with me at each step, Because you are full of grace. I wish never to forget your grace, And if I should lose it, I will ask, make me find it again. Amen."
It is an ambiguous and confusing
expression on which one has commented in different ways. According to Fr.
Slavko, it means: "That I know how to love your will when it differs from
mine."
To T. Vlasic' question, asked by
Jelena: "How could Jesus pray all night?" "With what
method?" "He had a great longing for God and for the salvation of
souls." (T. Vlasic, June 1, 1984, VB 1, 39, often taken up
subsequently). "If you want to be
stronger against evil, have an active conscience. For that, pray very much in
the morning and read a passage from the Gospel. Plant the Divine Word in your
heart and live it during the day, in this special way, in trials and in the
evening, you will be very strong." (T. Vlasic, Aug. 3, 1984).
GOOD FRIDAY, APRIL 20TH 1984: To
Jelena: "You should be filled with joy. Today, Jesus died for your
salvation. He descends into Hell and opens the gates of paradise. Let joy reign
in your hearts! When you pray, seek the
advantage of prayer. Prayer is a conversation with God. To pray means to listen
to the Lord. Prayer is for me a service, because after it all things become
clear. Prayer leads to knowing happiness."
HOLY SATURDAY, APRIL 21ST 1984:
To Jelena: "Raise your hands, yearn for Jesus because in his Resurrection,
he wants to fill you with graces. Be enthusiastic about the Resurrection. All
of us in Heaven are happy, but we seek the joy of your hearts. My Son's gift
and mine, at this moment is this: you will be comforted in your trials, they
will be easier for you because we will be close to you. If you listen to us, we
will show you how to overcome them. Pray
very much tomorrow. May Jesus truly rise in your families, that peace be
established there, where there are wars. I wish that someone is born again in
your hearts. My children, I thank you. Continue to bring about the Resurrection
of Jesus in all men. The Holy Year has ended, but it represents only a step in
our life. Continue to pray." (BN 18,24).
EASTER SUNDAY, APRIL 22ND 1984:
"We all rejoice in Heaven. Rejoice with us." (DN 1,27).
MONDAY, APRIL 23RD 1984: "There is no need to give more
information to the people, they already know what they are supposed to
do." (T. Vlasic, Aug. 12, 1984 VB 1, 861).
TUESDAY, APRIL 24TH 1984:
"With sadness and with tears: So many people, after they have begun here
to pray, to be converted, to fast, and do penitence, quickly forget when they
return home, and return to their bad habits." (DN 1,27). "The information suffices. People
already know enough. Tell them this place is a place of prayer. Pray as much as
you can, pray however you can, but pray more always. Each of you could pray
even four hours a day. But I know that many do not understand because they
think only of living for their work."
T. Vlasic then had this conveyed to Our Lady: "If I tell this to
the people, then they will go away completely." "Even you do not understand.
It is hardly a sixth of your day." (T. Vlasic, May 26, 1984, VB 1,
30). To Jelena: "Many times, confronting
justice and confronting your sins, many times I returned from your home in
tears. I could not say a single word. I am your Mother and I do not want to
oppose you. But on you, will depend what I wish to do, in you. We must rejoice in Jesus, to make Him
happy." (Tk. Vlasic, Nov. 10, 1984, VB 1, 128).
THURSDAY, APRIL 26TH 1984: No
message.
MONDAY, APRIL 30TH 1984: Maria
asks the reason for there not being a message last Thursday: "I had a
special message for the parish so as to awaken the faith of all the believers.
In the meantime, I do not want to force anyone to whatever it may be which
would not be felt or desired. Not all have accepted the Thursday messages. At
the beginning there were more. But now
it seems that all that has become common place to them. And recently, some have
asked for the message, only out of curiosity, and not with faith and piety to
my Son and me." (F 2,110).
THURSDAY, MAY 3RD 1984: No message.
THURSDAY, MAY 10TH 1984: The
absence of a message, the 26th of April, and again the 3rd of May, had been
reported in the same way as the explanation of April 30th. The response was
quick in coming: "I address you the words, and I will continue to do so.
But listen to these instructions."
THURSDAY, MAY 17TH 1984: To Maria
for the parish: "I am happy today because many of you have desired to
consecrate yourselves to me. I thank you for it. You have not been mistaken. My
Son Jesus Christ wants, through my intercession, to extend the graces of
predilection over you. He rejoices that you are consecrating yourselves to
Him."
SATURDAY, MAY 19TH 1984: To
Jelena: "Dear children, at this time it is especially necessary for you to
consecrate yourselves to me and to my heart. Love, pray and fast."
MONDAY, MAY 21ST 1984: To Jelena:
"O dear children, how I wish that you would turn to me. Imagine my little
children that it is the end of the school year and you have reached halfway.
That is why now you must become a little more serious." (Ba 62).
WEDNESDAY, MAY 23RD 1984: To Jelena: "I wish that the parish
prepare itself through a novena, to receive the sacrament of Confirmation on
the day of the feast of the Ascension. (which will take place May 31)." (M. 30).
THURSDAY, MAY 24TH 1984: To Maria, for the parish: "Dear
children, I have already said it to you; I have chosen you in a special way,
just as you are. I am your mother; I love all of you. At every moment, when you
have difficulties, do not be afraid because I love you, even when you are far
from me and my Son. I ask you not to
permit my heart to cry with tears of blood, because of souls who are lost
through sin. That is why dear children, pray, pray, pray!"
FRIDAY, MAY 25TH 1984: To
Jelena: "I truly wish that you
would be pure on the day of Pentecost. Pray, pray that your spirit be changed
on that day." (Ba 62).
SATURDAY, MAY 26TH 1984: To Jelena:
"Dear children, thank you for every prayer Try to pray
continuously, and do not forget that I love you and wish that all of you would
love one another." To Jelena, who
is requested to ask questions of the Blessed Mother: "For all of these
questions, there is an answer: pray to the Holy Spirit so that He may enlighten
you, and you will come to know all that you wish." (Ba 63).
MONDAY, MAY 28TH 1984: To Jelena: "Love is a gift from God.
Pray then, that God may give you the gift to love."(Ba 62).
WEDNESDAY, MAY 30TH 1984: To
Jelena: "The priests should visit families, more particularly those who do
not practice anymore, and who have forgotten God. Priests should carry the
Gospel of Jesus to the people, and teach them the way of prayer. And the
priests themselves, should pray more and even fast. They should give to the
poor, what they don 't need." (T 64).
THURSDAY, MAY 31ST 1984 (Feast of
the Ascension): To Maria, for the parish:
"I will give you the message for the parish, Saturday, June 2nd. It
should be announced on Sunday."
MAY 1984: To Jelena, after inquiring about August 5th,
1984, if they would be celebrating her two thousandth birthday: "Throughout the centuries, I have given
myself completely to you. Is it too much to give me, three days? Do not work on
those days. Take your rosaries and pray. Fasting has been forgotten during the
last quarter of the century, within the Catholic Church." (T. 57). Jelena: "I know that all families can
pray four hours a day. But, if I tell that to people, they will back out. Don 't you understand, that it is only
one-sixth of the day?" (F2, 113).
FRIDAY, JUNE 1ST 1984: To Jelena: "May the love of God be
always in you, because without it, you cannot be fully converted. Let the
rosary in your hands make you think of Jesus. Dear children, strive to be
absorbed in mass, just as you should." (J).
SATURDAY, JUNE 2ND 1984: To Maria, for the parish (a message which had
been anticipated: it will not be given Thursday, June 7th): "Dear children, this evening I recommend
to you the novena (of Pentecost). Pray for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on
all your families, and on your parish. Pray and you will not be sorry for it.
God will bestow His gifts on you, thanks to the fact that you will be
glorifying Him until the end of your life." (F2, 124). To Jelena: "Thank you for every prayer.
Continue to pray, but pray with the heart. Dear children, again it is necessary
for you to pray to the Holy Spirit and it would be good for you to pray seven
'Our Fathers,' in the church, as one does it for Pentecost." (J). During the novena, in preparation for
Pentecost, the priest who leads the prayer, makes a brief introduction before
each "Our Father" to ask for the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit.

and be happy because I am with you." (J).
SATURDAY, JUNE 9TH 1984 (Vigil of
Pentecost): "Tomorrow evening, pray to receive the spirit of truth. More
particularly, you, members of this parish. The spirit of truth is indispensable
to you in order to convey the messages, such as I give them to you, without
adding or deleting whatever it may be. Pray, so that the Holy Spirit inspires
you, a spirit of prayer, so that you may pray more. I your mother, find that
you pray too little."
MONDAY, JUNE 11TH 1984: To
Jelena: "I wish that you continue to pray and to fast." To the group: "I wish that you would
become like a flower in the spring. The love which I give you is great, but
sometimes you reject it, and thus, it becomes less. Always accept immediately,
the gifts which I give you, so that you can profit from them." (J).
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 13TH 1984:
"Dear children, I invite you to pray more, you and the entire parish,

yourselves to me. Offer yourselves completely to me these days." (Bl.

THURSDAY, JUNE 21ST 1984: To Maria, for the parish: "Pray pray,
pray! Thank you for having responded to my call." To Jelena:
"If you knew how much I love you, you would cry with joy. When
anyone is before you, and asks you something, you will give it to him. I am
before so many hearts, but they remain closed. Pray so that the world receives
my love." (BN 18,24). "Each member of the group is like a flower; and
if someone tries to crush you, you will grow and will try to grow even more. If
someone crushes you a little, you will recover. And if someone pulls a petal,
continue to grow as though you were complete." To Marijana: "My only wish is that you
become as joyful and enthusiastic as you were during the first days of my
apparitions." (Ba 64).
SATURDAY, JUNE 23RD 1984:

TUESDAY, JUNE 26TH 1984:
"When I say pray, pray, pray, I do not want to say to only increase the

in prayer." (F2, 112).

Thursday message to the parish.
THURSDAY, JULY 5TH 1984: Message

little and worked very much. Pray more. In prayer, you will find
repose."
THURSDAY, JULY 12TH 1984: Message
for the Parish: "Dear children, in these days, Satan wants to destroy all
my plans. Pray with me so that his design will not be realized. I will pray to
my Son, Jesus, so that He may give you the grace to experience His victory over
Satan 's temptations."
MONDAY, JULY 16TH 1984: "I
pray for the priests and the parishioners, that no one may be troubled. I know
the changes which will take place soon, (in the parish clergy). At the time of
the changes, I will be there. Also, do not be afraid, there will be in the
future, signs concerning sinners, unbelievers, alcoholics and young people.
They will accept me again." (T 42).
THURSDAY, JULY 19TH 1984: Message

FRIDAY, JULY 20TH 1984: Late in
the evening, on the hill of the apparitions: "Open your hearts to me, come
close. Say in a loud voice, your intentions, and your prayers." The Blessed Virgin paid close attention to
the prayers of the seers. When they prayed for the Bishop of Mostar, her eyes
were filled with tears. While crying, she tells them: "You are my little
flowers. Continue to pray my task is lighter because of it." She disappeared into Heaven, as she continued
to cry, after she had blessed everyone with a crucifix. (T. 43).
THURSDAY, JULY 26TH 1984: A message to the parish: "Dear children!
Today also I would like to call you to persistent prayer and penance.

AT THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST 1984:
To Jelena: "This message is dedicated to the Pope and to all Christians.
Prepare the second millennium of my birth which will take place August 5th,
1984 Throughout the centuries, I consecrated my entire life to you. Is it too
much for you to consecrate three days for me? Do not work, on that day, but

on Wednesdays and Fridays." (BN 18, 27).
To Jelena: "I am happy for your participation at Mass. Continue as
you did this evening. Thank you for having resisted the temptation of
Satan." (DN 1,33).
SUNDAY, AUGUST 5TH 1984: The
celebration of the second millennium of Mary's birthday was preceded by three
days of fasting and continuous prayer. Seventy priests heard confessions
without respite; there were conversions in great numbers. "Never in my
life have I cried with sorrow, as I have cried this evening with joy. Thank
you!" (RN 18,27). In anticipation of this day the Gospa had
said: "The priest who will hear confession will have great joy on that
day." During these 3 days of
fasting and continuous prayer the seers say the Blessed Virgin was "very
joyful," and she repeated: "I am very happy, continue, continue.
Continue to pray and to fast."
Her joy seemed to have reached a
peak Sunday, August 5th. Like a flower when it blooms, and full of joy, she
said: "Continue, continue, open your hearts, ask God and I will ask for
you." (T. Vlasic, Aug. 6, 1984, VB. 1,761).

is no joke, prayer is a conversation with God. In every prayer you must listen
to the voice of God. Without prayer one can not live. Prayer is life." (T.
Vlasic, November 10. 1984; VB. 1, 130).
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 13TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! I continually need your prayers.
You wonder what all these prayers are for. Look around, dear children, and you

that Jesus conquers."
THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! Today I ask you to start fasting,
putting your heart in it. There are many people who fast only because everyone

this parish. Dear children, fast and pray with your heart."

MONDAY, OCTOBER 8TH 1984:
"Let all the prayers that you say in the evening in your homes, be for the
conversion of sinners, because the world is truly in sin. Recite the rosary
every evening." (F2, 106). Jakov
was sick that day and received this message at his home: "Dear children! All the prayers which
you recite in the evening in your homes, dedicate them to the conversion of
sinners because the world is immersed in a great moral decay. Recite the rosary
each evening." (M.36).
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! Thank you for offering all your
afflictions to God, even at this time when He is trying your patience as you
reap your crops." (Our Lady is alluding to prolonged rain which came in
the middle of the harvesting and caused great damage.) "Be aware, dear
children, that He loves you and that it is for that reason that He tests you.
Always present your burdens to God and do not worry."
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13TH 1984: For
the priests of the Marian Movement of Priests: "A message to you and to
all those who love me. Dear children, pray unceasingly and ask the Holy Spirit
to inspire you always. In everything that you ask, in everything that you do,
look only for the will of God." (BN 18,27). "Live according to your
convictions and respect others." (Bl. 221).
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 18TH 1984:

Place it in a visible place there, where it will always remind you to read it
and to pray."
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20TH 1984:
"When you pray, you must feel more. Prayer is a conversation with God. To
pray means to listen to God. Prayer is useful for you because after prayer
everything is clear. Prayer makes one know happiness. Prayer can teach you how
to cry. Prayer can teach how to blossom. Prayer is not a joke. Prayer is a
dialogue with God." (T. Vlasic, November 10, 1984; VB 1, 125-126).
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 24TH 1984: At
10:00 in the evening at Krizevac: "My dear children, I am so happy to see

prayers and to mine. Pray more, and more intensely." (T.45).
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! Pray during this month. God has
allowed me to help you every day with graces, in order to protect you from
evil. This month is mine. I would like to give it to you. Pray and God will
give you the graces that you ask for. I will support your requests. I would like to guide you spiritually, but 1
would not know how to help you, if you are not open. It suffices for you to
think, for example, where you were with your thoughts yesterday during mass.
When you go to mass, your trip from home to church should be a time of
preparation for mass. You should also receive Holy Communion with an open and
pure heart; purity of heart and openness. Do not leave the church without an
appropriate act of thanksgiving. I can help you only if you are accessible to
my suggestions; I can not help you if you are not open." (T-59). "The most important in spiritual life is
to ask for the gift of the Holy Spirit. When the Holy Spirit comes, then peace
will be established. When that occurs, everything changes around you. Things
will change." (T. 59).
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1ST 1984: Message
for the parish: "Dear children! Today I call you to renew family prayer in
your homes. The field work is over. Now, may all of you devote yourselves to
prayer. Let prayer have first place in your families. Thank you for your
response to my call."
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! You are not aware of the
importance of the messages which God is sending you through me. He is giving
you great graces and you do not realize it. Pray to the Holy Spirit for enlightenment.
If only you knew how many graces God is giving you, you would pray without
ceasing."
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! You are a chosen people and God
has given you great graces. You do not realize the importance of every message
I am giving you. Now I only wish to say: Pray, pray, pray! I do not know what
else to tell you because I love you and wish that in prayer you come to know my
love and the love of God."
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17TH 1984: To
Jelena: "Pray. Do not ask yourself about the reason why I constantly
invite you to prayer. Intensify your personal prayer so that it will become a
channel for the others." (BN 18, 30).
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 22ND 1984: To
Maria, for the parish: "Dear children! These days, live all of my messages
and continue to root them in your hearts this week."
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! You do not yet know how to love,
nor do you listen with love to the words I am giving you. Be assured, my beloved
ones, that I am your Mother, and that I have come on earth to teach you how to
listen with love, how to pray with love, and not be compelled by the cross you
are carrying. Through the cross, God is glorified in every person."
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! These days, I am calling you to
family prayer. Many times, I have given you messages in God's name, but you
have not listened. This Christmas will be an unforgettable day for you,
provided you accept the messages I am giving you. Dear children, do not allow
that day of joy, to be a day of deepest sorrow for me."
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13TH
1984: To Maria, for the parish:
"Dear children! You know that the day of joy is coming near, but without
love you will obtain nothing. Therefore, first of all start loving your family
and everyone in the parish. Then you will be able to love and accept all those
who will come here. Let this week be the week of learning how to love. This
Christmas will be unforgettable if you follow me. Disconnect your television
sets and your radios, and begin God's programs; meditation, prayer, reading of
the Gospel. Prepare yourselves with faith; then you will have understood love,
your life will be filled with happiness." (BN 18, 31).
MONDAY, DECEMBER 17TH 1984:
Message conveyed by the seers to Monsignor Franic, Archbishop of Split, during
a retreat which he is making at Medjugorje: "You will have to suffer
more." (DN 3, 18).
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 20TH 1984: To
Jelena: "Today I am asking you to do something concrete for Jesus Christ.
On the day of joy, I would like every family of the parish to bring a flower as
a sign of self offering to Jesus. I would like every member of the family to
have a flower next to the crib, so that Jesus can come and see your offering of
self to Him." (VB 2,16). To Maria, for the parish: "Today I invite
you to show a concrete gesture for Jesus Christ, I wish that each family in the
parish bring each day a flower, as a sign of surrender to Jesus until Christmas
which is approaching. Have each member of the family place a flower near the
manger; and Jesus, at the time of his arrival, will see your love for Him
there." On December 24th the
parishioners carried their flowers near the manger. The whole sanctuary was
converted into a flower bed in blossom.
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 21ST 1984:
"Dear children! I would like for all of you to be like a flower, which is
going to open at Christmas for Jesus; a flower which does not cease to blossom
after Christmas. Be the good shepherds of Jesus." (Bl. 298).
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 25TH 1984: The
Virgin did not give a message, but she appeared holding the Child Jesus in her
arms. (DN 5,77).
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 27TH 1984:
Message for the parish: "Dear children! This Christmas, Satan wanted in a
special way to thwart Gods plans. You, dear children, witnessed Satan even on
Christmas day. But God conquered in your hearts. Let your hearts continue to
rejoice."
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 29TH 1984: To
Jelena, the anniversary day of her first apparition. Today is the feast of the
Mother of goodness, of mercy, and of love.
And she gave us her blessing saying: "Up until now I have not given
it to you." And the group felt
strongly changed because of it. She
motivated them to receive this blessing: "Receive it, do not neglect it as
before. I can give you my blessing, but I cannot give it to you if you do not
want it." (T. Vlasic, Mar. 2, 1985, VB 2,381). To Jelena: "I wish that a great love, a
great peace would flourish in you. Thus, pray." (Bl. 257).
