The following is Our Lady of Medjugorje's October 25, 2012 Monthly Message :

“Dear children! Today I call you to pray for my intentions. Renew fasting and prayer because satan is cunning and attracts many hearts to sin and perdition. I call you, little children, to holiness and to live in grace. Adore my Son so that He may fill you with His peace and love for which you yearn. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

The following is Our Lady of Medjugorje's October 2, 2012 monthly message on the day for nonbelievers through Mirjana:

“Dear children; I am calling you and am coming among you because I need you. I need apostles with a pure heart. I am praying, and you should also pray, that the Holy Spirit may enable and lead you, that He may illuminate you and fill you with love and humility. Pray that He may fill you with grace and mercy. Only then will you understand me, my children. Only then will you understand my pain because of those who have not come to know the love of God. Then you will be able to help me. You will be my light-bearers of God’s love. You will illuminate the way for those who have been given eyes but do not want to see. I desire for all of my children to see my Son. I desire for all of my children to experience His Kingdom. Again I call you and implore you to pray for those whom my Son has called. Thank you.”


Mirjana said that Our Lady blessed all those present and the religious articles brought for blessing.

"Dear children! Also today, with joy, I desire to give you my motherly blessing and to call you to prayer. May prayer become a need for you to grow more in holiness every day.

Annual Apparition To Mirjana - March 18, 2012

The visionary Mirjana Dragicevic-Soldo had daily apparitions from June 24th 1981 to December 25th 1982. During the last daily apparition, Our Lady gave her the 10th secret, and told her that she would appear to her once a year, on the 18th of March. It has been this way through the years. Several thousand pilgrims gathered in prayer of the Rosary at the 'Blue Cross'. The apparition lasted from 14:00 to 14:05.

"Dear children! I am coming among you because I desire to be your mother - your intercessor. I desire to be the bond between you and the Heavenly Father - your mediatrix. I desire to take you by the hand and to walk with you in the battle against the impure spirit. My children, consecrate yourselves to me completely. I will take your lives into my motherly hands and I will teach them peace and love, and then I will give them over to my Son. I am asking of you to pray and fast because only in this way will you know how to witness my Son in the right way through my motherly heart. Pray for your shepherds that, united in my Son, they can always joyfully proclaim the Word of God. Thank you."

Message of March 02, 2012

"Dear children; Through the immeasurable love of God I am coming among you and I am persistently calling you into the arms of my Son. With a motherly heart I am imploring you, my children, but I am also repeatedly warning you, that concern for those who have not come to know my Son be in the first place for you. Do not permit that by looking at you and your life, they are not overcome by a desire to come to know Him. Pray to the Holy Spirit for my Son to be impressed within you. Pray that you can be apostles of the divine light in this time of darkness and hopelessness. This is a time of your trial. With a rosary in hand and love in the heart set out with me. I am leading you towards Easter in my Son. Pray for those whom my Son has chosen that they can always live through Him and in Him - the High Priest. Thank you." 03/02/2012

Message of February 25, 2012

"Dear children! At this time, in a special way I call you: 'pray with the heart'. Little children, you speak much and pray little. Read and meditate on Sacred Scripture, and may the words written in it be life for you. I encourage and love you, so that in God you may find your peace and the joy of living. Thank you for having responded to my call."

February 02, 2012 Message to Mirjana


"Dear children; I am with you for so much time and already for so long I have been pointing you to God's presence and His infinite love, which I desire for all of you to come to know. And you, my children? You continue to be deaf and blind as you look at the world around you and do not want to see where it is going without my Son. You are renouncing Him - and He is the source of all graces. You listen to me while I am speaking to you, but your hearts are closed and you are not hearing me. You are not praying to the Holy Spirit to illuminate you. My children, pride has come to rule. I am pointing out humility to you. My children, remember that only a humble soul shines with purity and beauty because it has come to know the love of God. Only a humble soul becomes heaven, because my Son is in it. Thank you. Again I implore you to pray for those whom my Son has chosen - those are your shepherds."


January 25, 2012 Message to Marija

"Dear children! With joy, also today I call you to open your hearts and to listen to my call. Anew, I desire to draw you closer to my Immaculate Heart, where you will find refuge and peace. Open yourselves to prayer, until it becomes a joy for you. Through prayer, the Most High will give you an abundance of grace and you will become my extended hands in this restless world which longs for peace. Little children, with your lives witness faith and pray that faith may grow day by day in your hearts. I am with you. Thank you for having responded to my call."

January 02, 2012 Message to Mirjana

"Dear children; As with motherly concern I look in your hearts, in them I see pain and suffering; I see a wounded past and an incessant search; I see my children who desire to be happy but do not know how. Open yourselves to the Father. That is the way to happiness, the way by which I desire to lead you. God the Father never leaves His children alone, especially not in pain and despair. When you comprehend and accept this, you will be happy. Your search will end. You will love and you will not be afraid. Your life will be hope and truth which is my Son. Thank you. I implore you, pray for those whom my Son has chosen. Do not judge because you will all be judged."

Abortion doctor converted through Virgin Mary in Medjugorje
Visits to Guadalupe and Medjugorje were instrumental in John Bruchalski’s conversion. The medical doctor went from routinely performing abortions to founding one of the largest pro-life medical practices in the United States and employing the teachings of Blessed Pope John Paul II in a new, wholesome approach to health care.

Dr. John Bruchalski with one of his "clients". The medical doctor performed many abortions before visits to Guadaloupe and Medjugorje brought him to a halt and gave him a whole new life
One seed: Planted in Guadalupe where the Virgin Mary appeared in 1531. And brought to bear fruit in Medjugorje where the Virgin Mary is appearing today.
For American medical doctor John Bruchalski, a 50 years old native of Virginia, it meant moving from routinely performing abortions to obtaining a whole new view of medicine and founding what is now a blossoming pro-life medical practice.
Though raised in a devout Catholic family, John Bruchalski tells LifeSiteNews that he began his exit from the faith when he left for Catholic college.  There, he was taken in by professors and friends who claimed that the Catholic Church can change with the culture – that its teachings on marriage, divorce, abortion, and contraception would eventually conform to contemporary cultural values.
By the time John Bruchalski entered medical school in 1983 at the University of South Alabama, contraception and abortion seemed to him “the way to promote health and happiness and wholeness in a woman’s reproductive life.”  Aiming to be the best gynecologist he could, he learned the different methods for abortion, sterilization, and artificial reproduction, and began providing them during residency.
“I was doing the abortions because I believed it was the lesser of two evils – yet I realized that people were just more broken after the procedure.  There might have been a brief respite from the stress and strain, but most relationships broke up after the abortion”, John Bruchalski recounts.
Messages in Guadalupe and Medjugorje

Right before beginning his residency, John Bruchalski was convinced by a friend to go to Guadalupe in Mexico City where the Virgin Mary appeared in a Church-approved apparition in 1531.  Bruchalski says there he heard Our Lady of Guadalupe – whom Catholics revere as the patroness of the unborn – ask him, “Why are you hurting me?”
Yet he wasn’t ready to respond.
“I kind of put that in the back of my mind,” he said.
Then two years later, between his second and third year of residency, John Bruchalski’s mother took him on a pilgrimage to Medjugorje. It reawakened the great love for Christ and Mary that his parents had nurtured in him during his childhood.
“It was the simplicity of the messages of getting back to conversion. And then I had an experience there with a young woman from Belgium who was there praying for the pro-life cause.  She told me she had a message for me about Our Lady and began telling me things about my life” John Bruchalski recounts.
“It was life changing for me.”
New view of health care, no more abortions

Dr. John Bruchalski speaking at a pro-life rally
Back in the United States, John Bruchalski started searching for a way to integrate his rediscovered faith into his chosen field of profession. First he had another major experience:
“When I came home, I was given the grace not only to see myself as I really was – you know, my whole life passed before me – but I actually saw that there was a better way to practice medicine,” John Bruchalski tells LifeSiteNews.  “The approach to reproductive health was the polar opposite to what Planned Parenthood was saying.  That’s what Our Lady told me my role was going to be.”
He told his professor that he could no longer commit abortions or sterilizations, though it would take him a year to fully extricate himself from the procedures. After some years of study of “The Theology of The Body” by Blessed Pope John Paul II, John Bruchalski put his new view of medicine into practice in 1994 when he founded the Tepeyac Family Center with his wife in the basement of his house.  The obstetric and gynecological medical facility now employs six pro-life physicians and one nurse practitioner, making it one of the largest free-standing pro-life medical practices in the United States.
Based on a Catholic vision of health care, the Center promotes health practices that respect the natural rhythm of the woman’s cycle and the sanctity of human life.  They advocate natural family planning as opposed to contraceptives, and in cases of infertility they focus on treating the underlying causes rather than using assisted reproductive technologies like in vitro fertilization.
John Paul II’s teachings “revolutionary”, also for medicine

Blessed Pope John Paul II authored "The Theology of the Body", a defining cornerstone of John Bruchalski's pro-life medical practice
The Tepeyac Family Center has a special focus on implementing Blessed Pope John Paul II’s Theology of the Body, which Dr. Bruchalski says was “revolutionary for relationships, for medicine, and for families.”
“The Theology of the Body in medicine means that you cooperate with the body, you don’t repress it, You focus on health, not disease.  You don’t treat desires, you treat the disease.  You don’t treat people like products.  You don’t try to go to the best doctor who creates the healthiest babies with the best techniques.  Because we’re more than products, we’re people” Dr. John Bruchalski says.
“We are just now developing the wording and the language of translating [the theology of the body] from the religious and the anthropological to the medical and the scientific”.
