June 25, 1981 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje
The date of the first apparition for the group of six visionaries, who see Our Lady nearby on the hill: Our Lady says: “Praised be Jesus!” Ivanka: Where is my mother? (Her mother had died two months previously.) “She is happy. She is with me.” The visionaries: Will you return tomorrow? The apparition answers with a nod of her head. Mirjana: No one will believe us. They will say that we are crazy. Give us a sign! The apparition responds only with a smile. Mirjana believed she had received a sign. Her watch had changed time during the apparition. “Goodbye, my angels. Go in the peace of God.” (June 25, 1981 – Thursday)
