❗️APOCALYPTIC WARNING PUBLISHED BY VATICAN❗️ – Fr. Mark Goring, CC

Vatican City, September 19, 2024 – In a significant development, the Vatican has issued a cautious green light for the spiritual practices associated with the alleged Marian apparitions in Medjugorje, Bosnia and Herzegovina. While not definitively endorsing the supernatural character of the events, the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith has recognized the abundant spiritual fruits that have come from the site.

The decision, announced in a document titled “The Queen of Peace: Note About the Spiritual Experience Connected with Medjugorje,” allows for the faithful to benefit from the spiritual phenomena reported at Medjugorje, provided certain clarifications are understood. The Vatican has granted a “nihil obstat” (Latin for “nothing obstructs”), authorizing public acts of devotion related to the site. 

Let us read one last message, which summarizes the valuable Christocentric sense of the message of Medjugorje and manifests its most authentic spirit:

“Dear children, my words are simple […]. I am calling you to my Son. Only he can transform despair and suffering into peace and serenity. Only he can give hope in the deepest sorrows. My Son is the life of the world. The more you come to know him, the closer you come to him, and all the more will you love him because my Son is Love. Love changes everything; even that which seems insignificant to you apart from love is made most beautiful by love.” (2 September 2018).

Queen of Peace, pray that those who freely accept the spiritual proposal of Medjugorje may live ever more united with Jesus Christ and find true peace of heart in him.

To you, we also entrust this world of ours, which is succumbing to a “third world war fought piecemeal.” Queen of Peace, hear the plea that rises from the hearts of children, young people, the poor, and every person of goodwill.

“Thank you, our Mother! Looking to you, who are without sin, may we continue to believe and hope that love might conquer hatred, that truth might conquer lies, that pardon might conquer offenses, that peace might conquer war. So may it be!” (Francis, Prayer to Mary Immaculate, 8 December 2022).

The Supreme Pontiff Francis, at the Audience granted to the undersigned Prefect, together with the Secretary for the Doctrinal Section of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, on 28 August 2024, approved this Note and ordered its publication.

Given in Rome, at the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, 19 September 2024.
