For a religious who had come from Rome: “Have her strengthen the faith of those who have been entrusted to her.” For Fr. Faricy, and Fr. Forrest: “They are on the good path, have them persist.” For Pope John Paul II: “Have him consider himself the father of all mankind, and not only of Christians. Have him spread untiringly and with courage the message of peace and love among all mankind.” (Sunday, September 26, 1982)

September 4, 1982 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje

“Jesus prefers that you address yourselves directly to Him rather than through an intermediary. In the meantime, if you wish to give yourselves completely to God and if you wish that I be your protector, then confide to me all your intentions, your fasts, and your sacrifices so that I can dispose of them according to the will of God.” (Saturday, September 4, 1982)

Ivan is on the hill of Bijakovici with his friends. The Virgin appears to him. “Now, I am going to give you a sign in order to strengthen your faith.” They see two rays of light, one on the church, the other on the Cross at Krizevac. End of August 1982

August 31, 1982 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje

“I do not dispose all graces. I receive from God what I obtain through prayer. God has placed His complete trust in me. I protect particularly, those who have been consecrated to me. The great sign has been granted. It will appear independently of the conversion of the people.” (Tuesday, August 31, 1982)

August 29, 1982 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje

With reference to the critiques on the apparitions, which have divided the priests in Hercegovina: “I have not desired your division. On the contrary, I desire that you be united. Do not ignore the fact that I am the Queen of Peace. If you desire a practical advice: I am the Mother who has come from the people; I cannot do anything without the help of God. I, too, must pray like you. It is because of that, that I can only say to you: Pray, fast, do penance and help the weak. I am sorry if my preceding answer was not agreeable to you. Perhaps you do not want to understand it.” (Sunday, August 29, 1982)

August 18, 1982 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje

Mirjana reports to Fr. Tomislav Vlasic what the Gospa has told her concerning the sick: “Have them believe and pray; I cannot help those who do not pray and do not sacrifice. The sick, just like those who are in good health, must pray and fast for the sick. The more you believe firmly, the more you pray and fast for the same intention, the greater is the grace and the mercy of God.” Question asked with regard to a marriage planned between a Catholic and an Orthodox: “In my eyes and in the sight of God, everything is equal. But for you, it is not the same thing because you are divided. If it is possible, it is better if she were not to marry this man because she will suffer and her children also. She will be able to live and follow only with difficulty, the way of her faith.” (Wednesday, August 18, 1982)

August 16, 1982 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje

No special message. Our Lady only corrected the very resonant and very rapid prayer of the visionaries, and the people in church. Mirjana says that at the time of the apparition, she sometimes sees heavenly persons: Jesus, Mary, and angels in three dimensions, and earthly persons in two dimensions. (Monday, August 16, 1982)

August 6, 1982 – Message from Our Lady of Medjugorje

A response to questions which were asked concerning Confession: “One must invite people to go to Confession each month, especially the first Saturday. Here I have not spoken about it yet. I have invited people to frequent Confession. I will give you yet some concrete messages for our time. Be patient because the time has not yet come. Do what I have told you. They are numerous who do not observe it. Monthly Confession will be a remedy for the Church in the West. One must convey this message to the West.” That night Our Lady gave a sign to a group of young people who prayed with Ivan Dragicevic. Two luminary signs descended on Krizevac and the church… This phenomenon was observed by Fr. Tomislav Vlasic near the church. (Friday, August 6, 1982 (Feast of the Transfiguration))
