About Medugorje

Medugorje is a small village in Bosnia-Hercegovina that has been the site of alleged apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary since June 25, 1981. Literally millions of lay people, thousands of priests, and hundreds of bishops have traveled to Medugorje since 1981.

On this website you can read the story of the apparitions, learn about the visionaries, explore what Our Lady has said about the secrets, and read about Fr. Jozo, the parish pastor when the apparitions began. All of this—and much more information—is available by selecting the links above.

About This Website

I started this website shortly after I first got on the internet. It went live on November 21, 1995. After many years of publishing this site, I decided to purchase the domain name Medugorje.com.

In the early days, the website had only one or two visitors a week. Today, we receive around 4,000 visitors a month. I pray that everyone who visits this site will live the Gospel more faithfully, because that is the message Our Lady has been giving since 1981.

Spelling

On occasion, I receive emails telling me that I have spelled Medugorje incorrectly. In fact, there are two common spellings: Medugorje and Medjugorje. Both are acceptable.

However, in Croatian the name is often written as Međugorje, where the “d” has a cross through it (đ), producing a sound like “ju”—as in the word just. That is why both spellings are commonly seen.
