of our tour will take place today when we attend the performance
of the world-famous Oberammergau Passion Play.
Day 5: Oberammergau - Medjugorje
This morning transfer to Munich airport for
your flight
to Dubrovnik (Split
or Sarajevo). Upon
arrival, you'll be greeted by a tour guide and/or driver who will then take
you on the 2 1/2 hour drive by private coach to the village of Medjugorje.
Guide will be with your throughout your stay. Once there,
you'll meet your fellow pilgrims and your spiritual leader
and be introduced to your host family in whose comfortable yet modest house
(inn) you will be staying for the next seven nights.
Days 6 to 11: Medjugorje
Experience the beauty and peace of
this simple village. During your stay in Medjugorje you will have the
opportunity to share faith with pilgrims from all over the world.
Here are some of the activities
we'll be sharing with our fellow pilgrims: Each morning at 10am we assemble
at St James Church for the English-language Mass (Feast
days and Sundays English Mass is at Noon).
Follow the path up Apparition Hill where the visionaries first encountered
Our Lady. Touch and pray before the cross that commemorates the spot where
Mary first appeared to the visionaries.
Each evening at 6pm
daylight savings time, we will join the villagers and pilgrims to pray the
rosary. The apparition takes place
at
6:40 daylight savings time, and
then stay on for Croatian Mass. Don't miss on Thursdays and Saturdays
Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and on Fridays Veneration of the Cross in
the Church. Each evening
during Croatian Mass, there is the Blessing of the Sick and blessing of the
items you have with you.
Our guide will arrange meetings
with the visionaries at their own homes provided that they are in Medjugorje
during your trip, and pending their availability. We will have the
opportunity to climb Krizevac Mountain, where in 1933 the villagers built a
30' high cross on the anniversary of Jesus' crucifixion. Visit and pray at
"Blue Cross", which is a place of great healings and graces-
a very special place at the base of Apparition Hill.
We will visit the
community of Cenacolo.
Day 12: Medjugorje
- USA
After an early breakfast and
heartfelt farewells, we leave by motor coach for Dubrovnik Airport (Split or
