The number of abortions in the world makes the Virgin Mary cry, the visionary Ivan Dragicevic told 1000-2000 people gathered in Dublin on January 7th. Ivan’s visit took place at a time when abortion is at the top of the public debate in Ireland, and those who attended the meeting said that the visionary’s intervention was very timely.

On Monday January 8, 2013, Medjugorje visionary Ivan Dragicevic, brought his experiences with the Virgin Mary into the current debate on abortion in Ireland and revealed that abortion causes deep pain in Mary, citing one of His past messages .

The Church of SS. Salvatore in Dublin was more than full. According to some estimates, there were 1000 participants listening to the visionary, while other witnesses report about 2000 or more people. Aside from those who were seated, many people were standing inside the chapel. A large crowd had already gathered an hour and a half before the meeting began.

“In his testimony Ivan strongly reaffirmed the dignity of all human life, from the moment of conception to natural death. She said that the large number of abortions in the world fills the eyes of the Virgin Mary with tears, and that she reminds us of respect for life from the moment of conception until natural death “, reports Donna McAtee, who participated in the event.

“In this time in Ireland where the abortion debates clash, Maria’s message could not have come with better timing,” says Teuta Hasani, who is also present.

The apparition to Ivan lasted 9 minutes. This figure makes it one of its longest, even if it is not an unusual length. Later, Ivan reported this message given by the Virgin Mary to the defendants in Dublin:

“Dear children, today your Mother is very happy with you. Today I am calling you back to prayer. Dear children, do not tire of praying, know that I am always beside you, that I am with you and that I intercede with my Son for you. So pray with me, pray for my plans that I want to accomplish in this world. Thank you, dear children, for having answered my call. “
