Miracles of Medjugorje~ A Case for Grace Shannon Gieselman

Located in the heart of Medjugorje is a spiritually powerful place of healing and contemplation.  The focal point is an enormous sculpture of the Risen Christ....made mostly of bronze and copper. Slovenian sculptor, Andrija Ajdič donated it to the Shrine of Medjugorje in1998 after having it blessed by Pope John Paul II. It was installed on Easter Day.   While named the Risen Christ, the intent of the sculptor was to merge the Crucified with the Risen Christ as one. It displays Jesus posed like a cross, yet he is resurrected because he is standing in triumph with his body imprint left on the ground. At close look, you can see the scripture of Psalm 138 is engraved over his loin cloth. Mysteriously, in 2002, just a few years after the statue was erected, a trickling flow of water, began seeping from the right knee of this sculpture that is very similar to a tear-like liquid. On any given day, pilgrims can be seen lining up to get close to the statue, some with handkerchiefs in their hands, wiping the “liquid” oozing from just below the right knee.

Jose was fortunate enough to have participated in the 40th anniversary in Medjugorje and shares his eye witness testimony. He has an astounding story to tell of the power of the Rosary and how it worked to deliver a woman from demonic possession! Not something you typically hear about everyday since we live in a very broken world where evil prevails. However, when encountering the holy place of Medjugorje these evil spirits don't stand a chance.   Among, other miracles, fellow pilgrims saw the miracle of the sun (see vid at the 33 minute mark: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-wmAEOKvyJk&t=2039s) and many noticed the cross ontop of Cross Mountain DISAPPEAR for 2 hours!

This is a follow up to my previous video, (Ep. 16) where I discussed how I was compelled to receive the Eucharist on my knees and directly on my tongue while in Medjugorje. However, at home I felt awkward and out of place.  

After some deep introspection and coming across this video of a Priest (link below), I want to go on record to say, I will now be taking the Eucharist in this way from now on.   

I encourage you to watch this video of the Priest I mentioned, who had a mystical experience at Mass that immediately prompted him to tell parishioners that 'from this moment in our parish, it’s only going to be possible to receive Holy Communion on the tongue and kneeling down.   https://youtu.be/YnDGZxLZebc 

Just a little food for thought. ;-)

In the 2nd half of our discussion, we reminisce of our time in Medjugorje at Adoration, Cross Mountain, meeting Mirjana, Cenacolo, Latta Castle and a special surprise friend who personally escorted us around town.

My personal pilgrimage to Medjugorje to visit the Blessed Mother with my Earthly Mother. Since we tend to get caught up in details, I split the show up in two segments. This first part is about the miracles we experienced while in route. We spoke about meeting Mirjana, being able to be present during Marija's daily apparition at her church, Apparition Hill and the Risen Christ Statue. Stay tuned for more.

Author of the Book I highly recommend, Six Months to Live, Artie shares his miraculous story how he was diagnosed with a terminal cancer at age 44 and still lives to tell about it 20+ years later.  Artie is a father to 13 children, so you can imagine his desperation to find a way to be here to help his wife take care of the family. 

When he heard about Medjugorje, where healings have been known to take place, he and two of his good buddies dropped everything and ventured over where they encountered not just a physical, but a spiritual healing. Upon his return, his doctors were dumbfounded as xrays proved he was fully cured.   I hope you enjoy hearing Artie's story as much as I did. It's packed with sage advise as well as highly charged both spiritually and emotionally.
