Summary: A Great Buy
Comment: An Excellent book on the on-going apparitions of Medjugorje!
This book should be read by all. Mary is the Mother of all people.
Jesus gave her to us from the cross. I thought the book was fascinating.
And the price can't be beat.

Summary: An Open Mind
Comment: I first bought this book sitting around SFO waiting for a plane back to LAX. Bought it for my wife who has great faith. My mom had been to the site and she had some very special experiences that changed her life. However, outside of saying the Rosary much more often afterwards, she did not go into immense detail and what she saw and felt. We just knew it was powerful. Please note, at that time, she was already sick with cancer, so perhaps her communicative abilities were limited. We lost her to brain cancer in 1994, so I wanted to learn more about her own Yugoslavian openings.
If you have an open mind, be certain to read this book. My wife and 12 year old step daughter were in big tears within the first few pages. From a Catholic perspective, this is much more evidence, in droves, of the presence of the Mother of God calling out to us for prayer and faith right now. To a non-believer, the author approaches the visionaries like a great reporter - asking tough questions over and over, sometimes the same ones in very different ways. The consistency of their answers, all of them, helps justify the notion that this is a very real phenomenon and one worth studying closely. It almost feels like the interviewer does or did not believe, hence the tough questions from a variety of angles. These are not softball questions on their visions if you read her style closely. They have plenty of chances to slip or be inconsistent.
If you love books and claim to have an open mind, please read this book. The experiences they share of hearing personally from the Mother of Jesus are like nothing you will ever read again. She is so full of love and concern for all of humanity that it's very beautiful and compelling. We have been profoundly blessed by this work and bought many copies to share with family and friends, Christian and non alike. You will not be disappointed with this loving book.

Summary: A True Awakening
Comment: If this doesn't wake you up out of your lull in faith, nothing will. After reading you will realize how short a time we truly have on earth to make a difference to those in need. Very inspirational.

The classic account of the appearances of the Blessed Mother at Medjugorje--now updated for the millenium
Like Lourdes and Fatima before it, Medjugorje has become a holy site for worshippers around the world, a place that will be remembered long after the twentieth century recedes into history.
In this edition, Janice Connell presents a new intruduction that places Medjugorje in the context of the millennium and suggests that the Blessed Mother's final appearance on Earth may indeed be at this small mountain village. The author tells what has happened to the six apparitioners since the book was first published, and the Blessed Mother's monthly messages have been updated through 1997. There is also a new list of Marian Centers across the nation.
The Visions of the Children features exclusive conversations with the six apparitioners who have been receiving, for more than fifteen years, visions and messages of the Virgin Mary, including extraordinary secrets about the final chapter in the history of the world. This book not only tells of the need for love and spiritual awakening, but casts a powerful perspective on the wholescale devastation in Bosnia during the last few years.
