Dear Children - The Queen of Peace Visits Medjugorje

This is the Croatian version of Dear Children, the children's book about Medjugorje.

Život u Međugorju je bio jednostavan...

Ljudi su živjeli kao i tijekom proteklih stotine godina – uzgajali su usjeve, skrbili o stoci i provodili vrijeme s obitelji i prijateljima. Nebo je, međutim, imalo drugačije planove i selo se zauvijek promijenilo nakon što je skupina djece vidjela izvanredan prizor na obližnjem brdu jednoga ljetnog popodneva.

Tijekom povijesti ljude je u različitim dijelovima svijeta pohodila Marija, Isusova majka. Ipak, nitko nije očekivao da bi ona mogla pohoditi Međugorje, a najmanje od svih to je očekivalo šestero djece koja će postati poznata kao "vidioci". Iako to nisu mogli ni zamisliti, njezin nebeski pohod će preobraziti njihov uspavani zaselak u odredište nade i mira za ljude sa svih strana svijeta.

Marijine poruke počinju riječima "Draga djeco", a ona želi da je svaka osoba na svijetu vidi kao majku. Ovo je istinita priča o Međugorju i Kraljici Mira.

Mirjana Soldo was only 16 years old when she and five other children saw a mysterious young woman on a remote hillside in the village of Medjugorje, then part of Yugoslavia. The woman—who possessed a beauty and grace that seemed to come from beyond—identified herself as the Virgin Mary.

The apparitions that began on the afternoon of June 24, 1981 would dramatically change Mirjana’s life and the lives of countless people around the world. Her claims, however, contradicted the atheistic ideologies of the Communist government and Mirjana was deemed “an enemy of the state.”

Amazingly, the apparitions have continued for over 35 years. Millions of people travel to Medjugorje every year in search of answers to life’s biggest questions. The messages given by Mary are a call for mankind to return to God. And, according to Mirjana, the Virgin entrusted her with ten secrets that foretell the future of the world—secrets that she will reveal within her lifetime.

Paperback. 369 pages. A portion of every book sold goes to Mary's Meals, a charity which feeds over a million children every day.

Medjugorje: The First Seven Days by journalist Darko Pavičić is a detailed and impartial journalistic-investigative reconstruction through previously unpublished materials and witnesses interviews sheds light on the occurrences of the first days of Medjugorje apparitions from June 24th to July 3rd, 1981, whose authenticity the Vatican considers positive.

Medjugorje, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, is the only place in the world where the Virgin Mary appears every day. These apparitions have continued for 41 years and today Medjugorje is governed by the Vatican through a special papal envoy.

Medjugorje: The First Seven Days was inspired by the unofficial findings of the International Commission of Inquiry of the Holy See for Medjugorje, which Pope Benedict XVI entrusted to Cardinal Camillo Ruini and which gave a positive opinion on the authenticity of these "first seven days", i.e. the ten days of apparitions from June 24th to July 3rd, 1981.

The book is an ideal introduction to the phenomenon for skeptics and those who encounter the Medjugorje phenomenon for the first time, while it also contains a handful of previously unpublished details which are unknown even to devotees of Medjugorje.

370 pages. Paperback.
