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by journalist Darko Pavičić is a detailed and impartial journalistic-investigative reconstruction through previously unpublished materials and witnesses interviews sheds light on the occurrences of the first days of Medjugorje apparitions from June 24th to July 3rd, 1981, whose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and those who encounter the Medjugorje phenomenon for the first time, while it also contains a handful of previously unpublished details which are unknown even to devotees of Medjugorje. 370 pages.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. |

According to Catholic tradition, St. Roch was miraculously born with a red cross on his breast. He grew up to be a man of great faith. After his parents died, Saint Roch gave away his inheritence to the poor. In the year 1315, he began miraculously curing plague victims in Italy with the sign of the cross, but his ministry led to him contracting the disease himself. He later recovered but spent the remainder of his life in prison after being mistaken for a spy. After St. Roch died in prison, an angel appeared in his cell and said that those who invoked Roch's intercession would be cured. Today, St. Roch is called upon to intercede against illness, including the coronavirus pandemic. On the back of our exclusive St. Roch holy card is the beloved Prayer to St. Roch (see below), which we invite you to use to ask for Roch's intercession. These holy cards were designed in-house by the Apostle Gear graphic arts team. Printed in full high-gloss color, the card is about the size of a business card (3.5-inches high by 2-inches wide) and fits perfectly in a wallet or pocket. We invite you to purchase this 100 pack and distribute them to everyone who might join you in prayer.
Prayer to St. RochO Blessed Saint Roch, Patron of the Sick, have pity on those who lie upon a bed of suffering.

Offer, then, to God our sighs and tears and obtain for us that health we seek. hrough Christ our Lord. Amen. Repeat the following 3 times: Saint Roch, pray for us, that we may be preserved from all diseases of body and soul. |
