A Medjugorje Experience — Slovenia • Croatia • Bosnia & Herzegovina
Enter Lent with Our Lady as your gentle guide. This grace-filled pilgrimage begins in Slovenia, where you’ll pray at the national Marian shrine of Brezje and wander the storybook beauty of Lake Bled and Ljubljana’s old town. Continue into Croatia for cathedral cities and coast—Zagreb, the wonder of Plitvice Lakes, the Roman and medieval charms of Zadar and Split—with daily Mass and time for quiet reflection.
At the heart of the journey stands Medjugorje, where millions have come seeking conversion and peace. Climb Apparition Hill, pray the Way of the Cross at Krizevac (Cross Mountain), spend time before the Blessed Sacrament at St. James Church, and encounter the Lord through the maternal intercession of Mary, Queen of Peace. Conclude in Sarajevo, weaving prayer with culture in one of Europe’s most storied cities.
With thoughtful pacing, seasoned guides, and moments carved out for silence, Scripture, and the Rosary, this Lenten path invites renewal of mind, heart, and soul.
