Oh! You stayed with Maria! How much God has blessed you! Going with Maria is like being led around Medjugorje by Fr. Jozo or Fr. Slavko or one of the visionaries. She is truly on the inside track. I miss her so much! I was supposed to visit her in Florida this past year and I didn't get a chance to! I believe she is coming up to my neck of the woods soon, so hopefully I will get to see her in the near future! ....as I read futher you are Sean's mother. That makes a lot of sense. Sean and I have exchaned that we both know Maria! How wonderful! Welcome!

What a wonderful idea taking an add out in the paper! I might do that!

God bless!!!

I think the youth festival is not for children but young people i.e. teenagers and people in their twenties. I don't think there are children's activities but perhaps someone here knows better than I

Hi! The ad I took out in the newspaper did not field me any responses at all. So I am just doing my rosary daily, by myself. It's OK. I love it. Sometimes I say to myself: "I have so much to do! So I need to hurry and say the rosary."

I have made it a priority in my life. Then, when I am saying it, the world slows down and it is just me and the Blessed Mother. I love it!

Yes, Maria is AWSOME! Anyone who knows her KNOWS it's true! She is an inspiration to me!

Warmest regards,
Btripp1234

A warm hello to everyone who wrote to me!

My clock is ticking the hours and days until my departure once again for Medjugorje! It is such a wonderful feeling, to know that I am returning again to this place that the Blessed Mother has chosen. (This will be my fifth trip!)

I am traveling there alone, but will meet some of the people from my Church in Florida who will be there when I get there.

I must remember, upon my return home again, since the urge to return back to Medjugorje will be so strong (as it always is): "Bloom where you are planted".

Returning home has always been the most difficult part of the entire journey, and that one saying has helped me the most upon my return and re-integration back into life at home. I think the Blessed Mother wants us to 'Bloom where ever we are planted', so that we can spread her messages of hope and love to those we come into contact with.

Well, bye to everyone out there!!!
