in a special way and I wish to lead it. I am
guarding it in love...” (March 1, 1984)
• “... because I and my Son have a
special plan for this parish...” (April 12,
1984)
• “It is a place where
God has touched the
earth in a special way.”
(Provincial Ivan Sesar)
• “... a place where one
can feel positive energies”
(Medjugorje priest)
• “... something divine
and supernatural is
present in Medjugorje”
(Ćorić)
Stones or parts of the soil
