Međugorje - Part IV

All things must come to an end, and so did the World Youth Festival in Međugorje. On Friday night, there was a procession of Our Lady. Representatives from all the countries that took part in the festival walked in a procession after the statue of Our Lady. There were candles, flags and singing as she passed among us. The procession reminded us of her constant presence as a Mother to us all. After the procession, there was adoration again, followed by some musical theatre.

Međugorje - Part III

In comparison with last year’s World Youth Day in Poland, the festival here has a simpler schedule. In the morning we have catechesis and testimonies, with worship songs during breaks. In the afternoon, there are more testimonies, and people pray the rosary before the Holy Mass. Each day, there are more than 400 priests con-cerebrating the Mass and more than 50,000 young people dancing and singing together to worship Our Lord.

It was a blessing to hear catechesis from Fr. Jacques Philippe, who talked about relativism, faith, love and the Truth. We have also heard beautiful and touching testimonies from people who have experienced extreme conversions and now work as instruments of God.

Međjugorje - Part II

The World Youth Festival in Međjugorje started on Tuesday, by an entrance procession after the daily rosary. Each country with their flag and a sign took part in the procession. According to the local parish priest, this time there were 61 countries represented at the Festival. 

In addition to carrying the flag and sign, the people representating their countries were asked to say the theme of the Youth Festival - May your love grow more and more (Phil. 1:9) - in their own language. For Finland, this verse was said in both Finnish and Swedish.

Međjugorje - Part I

1/8/2017

1 Comment

 
A group of around 60 people from Finland and Verona, Italy, arrived in Međjugorje in Bosnia and Herzegovina on July 30, 2017. Our pilgrimage was arranged by Father Gianni Sgeva CP. One of the main reasons for the pilgrimage was the World Youth Festival, which takes place at Međjugorje on August 1-6. This year the theme of the Festival is That your love may grow more and more.

Young people from around the world are coming to Međjugorje for this global gathering. As Fr. Gianni said, each place that Our Lady has appeared is a blessing, yet more blessed is Međjugorje, since Our Mother is still appearing to the visionaries.
​

A sign from each country is required at the festival, so the first evening we set up the Finnish flag and registered at the local parish for participation in the festival. It is quite possible that we are the first Finnish group to have taken part in this festival. We are about 25 people from the Finnish youth group.
