Medjugorje’s Ten Secrets and a Sign

The Blessed Virgin Mary came from heaven to Medjugorje and revealed Ten Secrets. She prophesied that she would leave a permanent supernatural sign on the hill where she first appeared. These will all come to light, for as the Gospel says, “Nothing is secret except to come to light.” (Mark 4:22).

Mary gave several of the visionaries Ten Secrets each. It is not known if they all have the same secrets. As the prophet Amos tells us, “The Lord God does nothing without revealing His secrets to His servants, the prophets.” (Amos 3:7).

In his 1983 letter to Pope St. John Paul II, Father Vlasic summarized the substance of his interview with Mirjana about the secrets. He wrote,

Mirjana said that before the visible sign is given to humanity, there will be three warnings to the world. The warnings will be in the form of events on earth. Mirjana will be a witness to them. Three days before one of the admonitions, Mirjana will notify a priest of her choice. The witness of Mirjana will be a confirmation to the world.

The Ninth and Tenth Secrets are serious. They concern chastisement for the sins of the world. Punishment is inevitable, for we cannot expect the whole world to be converted. The punishment can be diminished by prayer and penance, but it cannot be eliminated. Mirjana said that one of the evils that threatened the world, the one contained in the Eighth Secret has been averted, thanks to prayer and fasting.

However, Mirjana told me in my interview with her on October 23, 2010, that this was a mistake and that it was the Seventh Secret and not the Eighth Secret that had been averted. She said,

 That is why the Blessed Virgin continues to encourage prayer and fasting and said, ‘You have forgotten that through prayer and fasting you can avert war and suspend the laws of nature.’

After the first admonition, the others will follow in a rather short time. Thus, people will have some time for conversion.

That interval will be a period of grace and conversion. After the visible sign appears, those who are still alive will have little time for conversion. For that reason, the Blessed Virgin invites us to urgent conversion and reconciliation.

The invitation to prayer and penance is meant to avert evil and war, but most of all to save souls.

According to Mirjana, the events predicted by the Blessed Virgin are near. By virtue of this experience, Mirjana proclaims to the world: “Hurry, be converted; open your hearts to God.”

Mirjana told Janice Connell, author of several books on Medjugorje, that she knows the date of each of the secrets and that all of them will occur during her lifetime. She said,

The first two secrets will be warnings to the world — events on the earth as warnings to the world that will occur before the visible sign is given to humanity. These will happen in my lifetime. That is why Mary’s call to conversion is so urgent. She is our mother, and she would like all of us to heed the message she is giving us. She wishes this so that later, when the secrets are to be revealed, there will not be any unbelievers.

We should not be frightened, because we are God’s children and if people only realized how much He loves us, and what He has prepared for us they would be filled with such peace! She added that those who use their freedom to choose things that are not of God will suffer the tortures of children of Satan. God gives His children heaven, but Satan brings his children to hell.

Mirjana concluded the interview with Mrs. Connell and said,

My witness will be an affirmation to the world of the authenticity of the apparitions at Medjugorje and a stimulus for the conversion of the world. After the visible sign, those still alive will have little time for conversion. God is not cruel! God is love, only love. Cruelty and evil come from Satan. But with our free will we choose God or Satan every moment. Those who freely choose Satan, who disobey God’s commandments, will perish.

Mother Mary said, “Dear Children! God gives me this time as a gift to you, so that I may instruct and lead you on the path of salvation. You do not comprehend this grace, but soon a time will come when you will lament for these messages.” (August 25, 1997)

In an interview at Medjugorje on October 3, 2009, Mirjana said,

I never think about the secrets. I don’t even think about it, because it is dear God who keeps the secrets and His will be done. For example, this morning, I spoke to Italians, maybe you saw there were thousands of them! Any and every question they asked started with, ‘Why, why, why, why this, why that, waving their hands.’

Then I said to them, ‘You know why Our Lady did not appear in Italy but in Croatia?’ And they said again, ‘Why?’ I said if she appeared in Italy she would run away after the third day because it would always be, ‘Why, Why, Why?’ Whatever she said, we just accepted it the way it is. I never said ‘Why’ because whatever Our Lady says, that is for our good and it is not up to me to ask ‘Why?’

Mirjana told Sabrina Covic-Radojicic, “As I said, I never think of the secrets. I pray and good God helps me to carry them. I always recommend to all pilgrims: ‘Don’t speak of the secrets! Don’t waste your time, because you don’t know when the time of the secrets will be. It may be this evening. You should be ready at any moment to present yourselves before God.’ Our Lady tells us to think of our lives and to ask ourselves if we will dare raise our head or keep it low because of our sins. This is what we should think of…. ”

“I already explained to you that it’s not me who keeps secrets, but dear God. I do not think about the secrets. If pilgrims did not ask me, the days and months would pass, and I would never think of them. This may be a gift from God or my prayer that helps me in this; prayer which leads me and shows me what Our Lady wants from me. In fact, it is Jesus through our Mother.”

In the 17th century, at Quito, Ecuador, the Blessed Virgin Mary prophesied to Mother Mariana de Jesus Torres that during the 20th century, “The vices of impurity, blasphemy, and sacrilege will dominate in this time of depraved desolation.”

In order to mitigate chastisement prophecies for the 20th century, God sent His Mother Mary to earth throughout the 20th century to warn humanity to either repent, convert, have faith, and pray, especially the Rosary, or to suffer from chastisements. However, humanity has followed the bad example of Adam and Eve, and, in pride and disobedience, disobeyed God and brought chastisements upon the world. Modern disobedience has brought chastisements such as the Second World War and Communist revolutions that caused the deaths of over 150 million people.

The third millennium ushered in the chastisements of the 9/11 Attack on America; the Indian Ocean tsunami; Hurricane Katrina; the Haitian earthquake; the Japanese earthquake/tsunami; militant jihadist Muslim terrorist attacks throughout the world; wildfires, mass killings, looting and rioting in the United States; and the COVID-19 pandemic.

In 2020, during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Father Marinko Sakota, a parish priest in Medjugorje said, “It is very important to listen to what Our Lady said to us in a message during that time. She said, ‘I would like to guide you in the way of salvation, return to my son Jesus, return to prayer and fasting. Do not be afraid.’’’

Jesus sent His mother to Medjugorje as the Queen of Peace to plead for repentance, conversions, prayer, fasting, and peace. However, too few have responded to stay the hand of Divine Justice which is falling upon the world. The world is reaping the fruits of its obstinate and sinful ways.

This is the time of the Ten Secrets. Father Livio Fanzaga, Director of Radio Maria in Medjugorje, once said, “I believe that the time of secrets coincides with the 40th year of appearances.” 2021 was the 40th anniversary of the apparitions. So, now in 2024, God has extended the time of His mercy. We are in the overtime of God’s mercy, but soon His justice will come through the Ten Secrets and the chastisements.

We need to wake up, lift our heads and see the signs all around us. It is for our own good that God will allow His justice to be poured out in order to awaken our consciences and correct our sinful behavior.

The late, authoritative theologian, Father Renée Laurentin, recorded Mirjana’s message of October 25, 1985, regarding “the realization of the first secret.” He wrote that Mirjana said that Mary “showed me, as in a film, the realization of the First Secret. The earth was desolate.”

[Mary said] “It is the upheaval of a region of the world.”She was precise. I cried.” [Mary said] “In the world, there are so many sins. What can I do, if you do not help me? Remember, that I love you.”

So, let us help Mary! The choice is ours: to respond to Our Lady’s requests for repentance and conversions with the consequence of peace or to reject them and suffer the consequences of chastisements.

Let us pray and be prayerful and hopeful. Jesus and Mary are with us to save us. They are here for us and we must trust in their love for us. Stay close to Jesus in the holy Eucharist through His Immaculate Mother! The late Father Slavko Barbara, former Medjugorje parish priest, said, “The Madonna did not come to announce catastrophes, but more to help us avoid them. We all know that a nuclear war is possible, even without apparitions. If the house burns, it doesn’t burn because the mother cries ‘fire.’ On the contrary, the mother comes to save the house, which is burning. In that there is hope.”

In my interview of the visionary Mirjana Soldo, she told me, “I want to say one thing that is very important. Blessed Mary said, ‘What I started at Fatima, I will finish in Medjugorje. My heart will triumph.’…. We should think about the messages and what she asked for us, so that we can help her Immaculate Heart to triumph.”

Let us not forget that on July 13, 1917, Mary told the 3 children visionaries at Fatima, “In the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph…and a New Era of Peace will be granted to the world.” Mary said that peace is necessary for the salvation of the world and that she is the Queen of Peace. May her promised New Era of Peace come quickly!

Our Lady is preparing us for everything that is about to come into the world. She has trained us to prepare for the Ten Secrets and the Triumph of her Immaculate Heart. She told us, “We are now living in a time of grace, then will come the time of the secrets, followed by the triumph.” Let us confidently await in expectant hope for the prophesied Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Era of Peace.
