Please say the Memorare prayer for Archbishop Hoser, Vatican Envoy to Medjugorje who has died due to Covid

Memorare

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence, we fly to you, O Virgin of virgins, our Mother. To you we come; before you we stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not our petitions, but in Your mercy, hear and answer us. Amen. (You may make your petition here)

 

Words about Medjugorje from Archbishop Hoser

WORDS FROM  VATICAN  PAPAL ENVOY, ARCHBISHOP HENRYK HOSER

“You can say to the whole world  that there is a light with Medjugorje  and you can find the light again in Medjugorje. Today We need these spots of light in the world that is going down into darkness. So friends, be carries of this joyful news. – ARCHBISHOP HENRYK HOSER

The Papal Envoy first spoke of the comparison of Lourdes with Medjugorje saying that Lourdes, after 150 years, has about 6 million visitors a year and Medjugorje has 2.5 million visitors after just 36 years.

“It is important to grow Medjugorje.  People discover something extraordinary at Medjugorje There is an atmosphere of peace and reconciliation. An atmosphere of peace of the heart – an inner peace of the heart. At Medjugorje there is a huge space for spirituality. People rediscover something sacred, something holy  There is something divine when we honor Our Lady.

“Our Lady is always showing us back to Christ. When we look closely at Medjugorje we see at the center is the Holy Eucharist. We see Adoration where the real presence of Jesus Christ is found. People at Medjugorje discover the Holy Rosary. People at Mejdugorje pray the ‘Way of the Cross” and experience the passion of Jesus Christ. Of course the Holy confession and reconciliation with God is also at the center. ‘

The Papal Envoy then spoke of the fruits of Medjugorje.

“Medjugorje transforms people. In many countries individual confessions do not exist. No adoration of the Holy Sacrement, no “Way of the Cross” , no prayer of the rosary.  In many countries there is a dryness of sacred space which leads to a crisis of  the  faith. At Medjugorje people come to the source. The discovery of prayer all takes place with the help of the Virgin Mary.”

“Medjugorje emphasizes the title of “The Queen of Peace”  The Holy Father, Pope Francis has said “we are in a piecemeal third world war. We see this in the cruelness of civil wars .  I have lived the genocide in Rwanda. Syria has been destroyed. Syria has the oldest Christian presence in the world. Chemical weapons are now used. There are so many political conflicts, this is the reality of the today’s world. So now to evoke  the Queen of Peace, the Mother of God in prayer for peace is important. The specific role of Medjugorje is utterly important .

“You can say to the whole world  that there is a light with Medjugorje  and you can find the light again. We need these spots of light in the world  that is going down to darkness. So friends, be carries of this joyful news.
