A Pilgrim's Experience at Medjugorje with Bob Kertis

Please join us in learning about Medjugorje two Saturdays this Fall! Friend of St. James, Bob Kertis, will be here to share about his many trips there and to answer any questions you have about traveling there. A free print of the Blessed Mother for anyone who attends, bring a friend!!
Pope Francis approved Catholic pilgrimages to Medjugorje in May 2019, but he has not made a deliberation on the authenticity of the apparitions.
"The devotions in Medjugorje began after six young people, aged 10 to 16, said Mary began appearing to them in June 1981. Three of them say they still have apparitions of Mary each day, while the other three have them only on special occasions.
The Vatican's positive judgment of the spiritual experience connected to Medjugorje highlighted: abundant conversions; a frequent return to the sacraments, particularly, the Eucharist and reconciliation; many vocations to priestly, religious and married life; a deepening of the life of faith; a more intense practice of prayer; many reconciliations between spouses; and the renewal of marriage and family life."**
