Itinerary Summary:

Day 1 - Depart U.S.A.
If you are thinking about a visit to Medjugorje, or maybe just curious, do not hesitate, there is still time. The Blessed Mother still appears every day to three of the remaining visionaries. What would you do if one of your friends came over for a visit? Would you let him in? Join us and see for yourself.

Day 2 - Croatia
We do everything to help you make a fruitful pilgrimage leaving all the details to us. Our arrangements give you the flexibility & freedom to join or not join in pre-arranged meetings. Since 1984 when we led the first group from the USA to Medjugorje, we have always accompanied our pilgrims (see accompanying list) setting the standard which others have tried to copy. Our photos from the early days reflect we have been Devoted....Since The  Beginning.
When we arrive in Croatia, we are met and driven to Medjugorje usually arriving early afternoon. Since we stay with the visionary's relatives and in the visionary's homes - we are welcomed into their home where they prepare your meals - it feels as if you are at home. It's still the  custom to have grandparents and parents' children with their children in the same house living together. We are close by, only a leisurely 3 minute walk, about 60 feet from St. James Church, pictured above.

Day 3 Medjugorje - A window to heaven
In 1981 when Fr. Jozo was imprisoned, Fr. Tomislav Pervan became the next pastor of St. James. Since 1984, we have been under the supervision of the Franciscans in Medjugorje. He advised us to have our pilgrims taken care of in Medjugorje not only by a guide approved by the church but by one who lives there as well. Our guide coordinates meeting the visionaries at their home and all other events.

You may have heard about Jill Jensen who was with us on one of our pilgrimage departures to Medjugorje. We even have a photograph taken of her "the day before and the day after" her healing. She had all that life could offer; she was a bright and attractive young lady who thought that drugs could never happen to her. Then one day in high school she tried marijuana. Soon she was trapped. Once she was hooked, she began to lie, steal, and even ruin the lives of others to satisfy her relentless appetite for drugs. Eventually, she was hooked on cocaine. The drug was so overpowering that she would often hallucinate and literally rip at her hair and her skin. She received a miracle; SHE WAS HEALED - FROM DRUGS - but more importantly, she had a personal conversion. Jill Jensen's testimony is a dramatic example of how God can take an impossible situation and change it for the better. Today, she is helping other addicts to find hope - conversion - and a way out of their addiction.                                                                                                                              

Day 4 A Place Called Peace - Apparition Hill
We follow the path to start the climb up Apparition Hill where they first saw the Blessed Mother. Many times Ivan, Vicka and Marija would often gather with their prayer groups to pray before the Blessed Mother appeared to them. Vicka told us the Blessed Mother had shown her Paradise, Purgatory and Hell and asked her to pray for the souls in Purgatory. On another occasion when Lois and our pilgrims stayed at Jacov's home he told us of the time he and others were praying for Fr. Jozo when Fr. Jozo had appeared to him even though he was still inprisoned.

Day 5 -The village and Fr. Jozo
Hear and experience the presence of Fr. Jozo at his prayer and healing service (as long as he is available. i.e. not traveling.) His meditations and service still find us in church at the Hour of Mercy - 3:00 p.m. - the moment of Jesus' death on the cross. At this hour, Our Lord revealed to Bl. Faustina, you can obtain everything for yourself and for others for the asking and to: ...immerse yourself in prayer where you happen to be, if only for a very brief instant.  There is time to visit the nearby cave of the martyrs'. 

Day 6 Medjugorje - A time of great grace.                                            Geographically, the village of Medjugorje is remote and not easily accessible. Don't be discouraged. We  slowly climb up Cross Mountain meditating along the way on His Passion and the Stations of the Cross. Many cures have taken place here such as - Multiple Sclerosis, brain tumors, cancer, blindness - all medically documented cures. At the Blue Cross or on the pathway through the fields where the visionaries first ran to hide from the secret police, walking this holy ground frees you and heals you. What graces you will receive. Why would you deny yourself?

Day 7 Historical Catholic Croatia
Our guided visit begins as we drive along the Adriatic Coastline this morning for Dubrovnik. Surrounded by crystal clear waters, it's a fairy tale city come to life with ramparts and a wooden draw-bridge with no vehicles allowed within its walls. Visit Dubrovnik's Mala Strana, the Renaissance fortress Monastery of the Holy Savior and the churches of St. Roc and St. Ignatius and incorrupt body of St. Sylvan. This evening we return in time for dinner. (optional)

Day 8 Return home.
