On June 24, 1981, in the mountain village of Medjugorje in Herzegovina, Our Lady appeared to six children. She identified herself as the Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Peace, and has continued to appear to the young people every day. Her message is: Peace with God and man. And in Mary’s own words to the children: "I have come to tell the world that God exists."

Day 1 New York - Rome 

Depart New York's JFK Airport on TWA's non-stop overnight flight to Rome.  Some groups will travel with Lufthansa Airlines via Frankfurt. Dinner and breakfast are served on board. 

Day 2 Rome - Split - Medjugorje
Upon early morning arrival in Rome, you will connect to the one-hour afternoon flight to Split. Arrive Split, where you will be greeted by your tour guide and driver who will then take you on the 2 1/2 hour drive by private motor coach to the village of Medjugorje.  Once there, you will be introduced to your host family in whose modern and comfortable house you will be staying for the next seven nights. 

Days 3 - 8 Medjugorje
The beauty of this simple village is enhanced by the opportunity to share our faith with thousands of pilgrims from all over the world.  Each morning at 10 we assemble at St James Church for the English-language Mass.  Your guides will accompany you throughout the week as you follow the same path up Apparition Hill where the young visionaries first encountered Our Lady.  Contemplate the inspired artistry of the bronze plaques depicting each mystery of the rosary as you climb.  Touch and pray before the cross which commemorates the spot where Mary appeared to the visionaries At 6 pm you are welcome each evening to join the villagers and pilgrims to pray the rosary.  Be present in the church when the apparitions occur and then stay for the Croatian Mass and the Blessing of the Sick.   Your guide will arrange a meeting with the visionaries in their own homes. You will have the opportunity to see and climb Krizevac Mountain, where in 1933 the villagers built a 30’ high cross on the anniversary of Jesus' crucifixion.  Contingent upon his schedule, you may visit Father Jozo's parish to attend his holy preaching. In 1981, when the apparitions began, Father Jozo was the pastor of St James parish, and is considered by many to be the highlight of a pilgrimage to Medjugorje. 

Day 9 Medjugorje - Split - Rome - USA / (or return via Frankfurt)
After an early breakfast and heartfelt farewells, we leave by motor coach for Split Airport for the one-hour flight to Rome or Frankfurt.  There you will connect to your return flight to New York (or to your hometown).
