Medjugorje Pilgrimage – Journey Through the Heart of Our Blessed Mother

Date: 19th Oct 2026 - 31st Oct 2026

Journey through the spiritual and cultural heart of the Balkans on this grace-filled Marian pilgrimage. Begin in Slovenia at the national Marian shrine of Brezje, celebrating Mass at the Basilica of St. Mary Help of Christians, and enjoy quiet reflection at the picturesque Lake Bled. In Ljubljana, walk through the historic old town, visit St. Nicholas Cathedral and the Ursuline Church of the Holy Trinity, and celebrate Mass.

Continue into Croatia to explore Zagreb’s Cathedral and St. Mark’s Church before encountering the natural wonder of Plitvice Lakes National Park (UNESCO). Travel along the Adriatic coast to Zadar and Split, visiting ancient churches, venerating relics, and celebrating Mass amid Roman and medieval heritage.

At the heart of the pilgrimage lies Medjugorje, where Our Lady, Queen of Peace, has called the faithful to prayer and conversion. Spend prayerful days climbing Apparition Hill, praying the Stations of the Cross on Krizevac, attending parish liturgies at St. James Church, and allowing time for Confession and Adoration. Visit Mostar’s iconic Old Bridge and conclude in Sarajevo, where faith and history intertwine. Daily Mass, Rosary, and spiritual reflections are woven throughout this journey of renewal under Mary’s mantle of peace.
