Journey Details
St. James Church
Experience daily Mass and evening programs at the heart of Medjugorje's spiritual life, where thousands gather for prayer and worship. The church's outdoor altar area can accommodate over 5,000 people for the powerful evening programs.
Participate in the profound community prayer, healing services, and experience the deep peace that permeates this sacred space. The evening programs include the Rosary, Holy Mass, and often Eucharistic Adoration with international simultaneous translation available.
The center of worship in Medjugorje, St. James Church hosts daily Masses in multiple languages and evening programs that draw thousands of pilgrims from around the world. Built in the 1960s, this modern church has become the spiritual heart of the pilgrimage site.
The church serves as the focal point for the parish's spiritual activities and has been the gathering place for pilgrims since the apparitions began in 1981, hosting countless prayer services, healings, and moments of profound spiritual transformation.
Apparition Hill (Podbrdo)
Climb the sacred hill where Our Lady first appeared to the visionaries in 1981. Join pilgrims from around the world as you pray the Rosary while ascending the rocky path, stopping at bronze reliefs depicting the mysteries of the Rosary.
Experience moments of profound prayer and reflection at the Blue Cross at the base of the hill, a special place of peace where many continue to receive spiritual graces. Many pilgrims report feeling an overwhelming sense of peace and Our Lady's presence in this sacred place.
This is the exact location where the Virgin Mary first appeared to six young visionaries on June 25, 1981. The hill, known locally as Podbrdo, has since become one of the most sacred places in the Catholic world, drawing millions of pilgrims seeking spiritual renewal.
The rocky path to the apparition site symbolizes the spiritual journey of conversion that Our Lady calls all her children to embrace. The bronze reliefs of the mysteries of the Rosary were added to help pilgrims meditate on the life of Christ as they climb.
Cross Mountain (Krizevac)
Join pilgrims in praying the Stations of the Cross as you ascend Mount Krizevac, crowned with the famous concrete cross built in 1933. The challenging climb becomes a spiritual journey of penance and meditation on Christ's passion.
Many pilgrims choose to climb barefoot as an act of penance, especially on Fridays. The bronze reliefs marking each station provide opportunities for deep reflection on Christ's sacrifice and Our Lady's role in our salvation.
The massive concrete cross atop Mount Krizevac was built in 1933 to commemorate the 1900th anniversary of Jesus's passion and death. Standing 8.5 meters tall, it has become a beacon of faith visible from throughout the valley.
The mountain's steep path includes bronze reliefs of the Stations of the Cross, installed to help pilgrims meditate on Christ's passion. Since the apparitions began, many miraculous phenomena have been reported on this mountain, including the spinning of the sun and changes in the cross's appearance.
Evening Program
Participate in powerful evening programs including Rosary, Holy Mass, and Eucharistic Adoration with thousands of pilgrims from around the world. These evening gatherings are the heartbeat of Medjugorje, creating an atmosphere of profound prayer and unity.
Experience the beauty of praying alongside pilgrims from every continent, with international simultaneous translation available. The evening often includes special devotions like Veneration of the Cross or healing services that touch hearts and transform lives.
The evening prayer program has been the spiritual centerpiece of Medjugorje since the early days of the apparitions. Beginning with the Rosary at 6 PM, followed by Holy Mass, and often including Eucharistic Adoration, these programs have remained consistent for over 40 years.
These evening gatherings embody Our Lady's messages of prayer, conversion, and peace. Pilgrims often describe these moments as life-changing, experiencing deep spiritual healing and renewed faith in the presence of the international community of believers.
Rome - Eternal City
Visit St. Peter's Basilica and experience the spiritual heart of Catholicism. Take part in the special Jubilee events and, with luck, you will have the opportunity to receive the Pope's blessing. Walk through St. Peter's Square and feel the grandeur of the universal Catholic faith.
Experience the excitement of crossing the Holy Door during the Jubilee Year, an act of faith that represents the passage towards spiritual renewal. Visit the four Papal Basilicas and take part in the special Jubilee celebrations that only occur every 25 years.
Explore the artistic treasures of the Vatican, including the Sistine Chapel with Michelangelo's frescoes, and immerse yourself in the rich history of early Christianity by visiting the catacombs and the oldest churches in Rome.
Rome, the Eternal City, is the heart of the Catholic world and the seat of the Pope for nearly two millennia. Here Saints Peter and Paul bore witness to their faith through martyrdom, laying the foundations of the universal Church.
The 2025 Jubilee Year, known as the "Jubilee of Hope", is an extraordinary occasion of grace and spiritual renewal that the Catholic Church traditionally celebrates every 25 years. This special period offers the faithful the opportunity to obtain plenary indulgences and experience divine mercy in a particular way.
The Papal Basilicas — St. Peter's, St. John Lateran, Santa Maria Maggiore and St. Paul Outside the Walls — are the main pilgrimage destinations during the Jubilee, each with its own Holy Door that is solemnly opened for this special year.
Assisi
Join fellow pilgrims in walking the streets of Assisi, following in the footsteps of St. Francis of Assisi and St. Clare of Assisi on a path of prayer, humility and peace. The visit to the Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi and the Porziuncola becomes a profound spiritual experience, marked by silence, contemplation and the call to a simple life close to God.
Many pilgrims take this time to renew their faith and receive the plenary indulgence as part of the 800th anniversary of the death of St. Francis. The frescoes, chapels and sacred sites of Assisi offer unique moments to meditate on the love, sacrifice and joy of the Gospel.
Assisi is one of Italy's most iconic cities and an important spiritual center of Christianity. Located in the Umbria region, its origins date back to the Etruscan and Roman eras, still preserving walls, medieval streets and ancient temples that reflect centuries of history. Thanks to its beauty and religious significance, Assisi was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The city is world-renowned as the birthplace of St. Francis of Assisi, founder of the Franciscan order and universal symbol of peace, humility and love for creation. After his death in 1226, the majestic Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi was built, housing his tomb and extraordinary frescoes by artists such as Giotto. Also born in Assisi was St. Clare of Assisi, founder of the Poor Clares, whose life of prayer and simplicity continues to inspire millions of pilgrims.
Over the centuries, Assisi has become a destination for pilgrimage and spiritual encounter for people from all over the world. Places such as the Porziuncola, located within the Basilica of Saint Mary of the Angels, represent the heart of the Franciscan movement and the site where St. Francis understood his mission. Today, walking through Assisi means reliving a history of faith, reconciliation and hope that continues to touch the hearts of all who visit.
