On May 12, 2019 Pope Francis released a statement through the Apostolic Visitator, Henryk Hoser and the Apostolic Nuncio that the Pope has “decided to authorize pilgrimages to Medjugorje, which can now be officially organized by dioceses and parishes and will no longer take place only in a private capacity which as has so far been the case.”
As well as, since 2020 the Pope has sent a letter to the Youth Festival held in Medjugorje every summer to help build up the faith in the youth.
May the Queen of Peace touch even more hearts now that pilgrimages are approved!
