I just wanted to tell people of my story, nothing spectacular or anything but important to me all the same.

I visited Medjugorje for the first time in September 2007 and was just blown away by the place. I went iwth my mum, and was a little hesitant at times but I iknew she wanted to go so I said I would go along with her. What a week. I am so convinced that God touched my heart and opened it up.

I've lived a normal life, finished university travelled a lot of the world working, had girlfriends, etc, the usual thing. But as a result of Medjugorje, I am joining the priesthood. Never before had I ever dreamed of this happening. I would have laughed in your face at the suggestion. But for me, God opened my mind and my heart through Medjugorje and it is without a doubt, one of the most special places on Earth in my view.

Thanks be to God! I wish I could be a priest too, but I'm the wrong gender.

Dunowen welcome to the forum!

How awesome that Our Lady of Medjugorje has brought another man to the priesthood who is on fire with love for her Son!!! I hope that you will continue to post here and let us share in your spiritual journey. You never know how many young men you may inspire to discern the priesthood with your posts. I will be keeping you in my prayers.
