New member/Medjugorje concerns

[MaggieH]

Maggie, you are fine, no problem.

We do have a campaign of sorts. If you want help in your neck of the woods, you can email Donal Foley and he might be able to tell you what approach is needed where you are. I think you can find his email address on his theotokos web site that I linked to above. He is a wonderful man so whatever he suggests will be great. And of course we are here to help you out as well. The main things that you will want to have are the documents straight from the Bishop, some of which are here and on the bishop's Diocesan website. http://www.cbismo.hr Just click on "Medjugorje" and there are some of the bishops directions to us there.

While reading in the apparitions forum, you will also find what Canon law states concerning obedeince to our bishops in all things except sinful actions of course.

I don't want to delete your thread here at all. We have gotten to know where you stand and a little about you so we will leave it all here.

Blessings

Maggie, to make a long story short, PJPII never visited Medj. He was about 15 miles from there and never even mentioned it or looked in that direction.

Ad limina

Yes, we air Fr. Weinberger's homilies on SFCR, Semper Fi Catholic Radio.

Maggie, I know there are many threads in the apparitions forum but it might be profitable for you to read many of them. If you have any questions you can post them in that forum.

Thank you for explaining about JP11 visit.
You are right , there is so much I need to read before I put my questions on appropriate threads. There is just so much material I need to absorb. I would very much be interested in starting a campaign against this awful hoax and educate the Church in my locality for a start.
I had just been reading Bishop Peric's emails to you and I am aghast at the things he reports. Also I have heard about scandalous support of arms trade there in Medj.
Apologies for this being a lengthy thread here on this forum. but the truth is being revealed to me.
.You can delete my posts from here now that you have pointed me in the right direction. I await the surprise announcement from your pastor.
Many thanks.

Please bear with me , but I can't find the official link to where it states that JP11 never visited Medj. and that he was about 15 miles from it and never made reference to it.

I have someone who is telling me such stories as these, and I would like to be able to reply with links. ->



1.
John Paul II quote:"Only good things are coming from Medjugorje,people are reconciling with God ,recieving the Sacraments,adoring the Blessed Sacrament,only good things are happening in Medjugorje."



2.
Cardinal Schonborn:"If it wasn't for Medjugorje my seminary would be more than half empty as most of my seminarians got their calling at Medjugorje."


Where may I have an internet link to these please.

Thanks and God Bless.

Hi MAggie, first of all Daily Catholic is not reliable if I am remembering properly. Second in line would be for you to ask people a question in return when they ask you one. Ask them to show you an official document where quotes from the Holy Father and others were made and not some tale carrying Medj. web site. Somewhere in that sticky thread is the answer to the questions that you can prepare yourself with. When the present pope was a cardinal he said in an interview that was published in a reputable magazine that the quotes attributed to PJPII and him were made up. He said they never made any statements.
