The Messages of Medjugorje: 1986

(provided by Dan Doyle)
January 2, 1986

Dear children!

I invite you to decide completely for God. I beg you, dear children, to surrender yourselves completely and you will be able to live everything I say to you. It will not be difficult for you to surrender yourselves completely to God.

Thank you for your response to my call.


January 9, 1986

Dear children!

I invite you to prayer so that with your prayers you will help Jesus to realize all plans that are here. By offerings and sacrifices to Jesus everything will be fulfilled that is planned. Satan cannot do anything.

Thank you for your response to my call.


January 16, 1986

Dear children!

I invite you to pray. I need your prayers so much in order that God may be glorified through all of you. Dear children, I beg you to listen and to live your mother's call because I am calling you, by reason of my love, so that I can help you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


January 23, 1986

Dear children!

Again I invite you to prayer of the heart. If you pray from your heart, dear children, the ice-cold hearts of your brothers will be melted and every barrier will disappear. Conversion will be easily achieved by those who want it. You must intercede for this gift for your neighbors.

Thank you for your response to my call.


January 30, 1986

Dear children!

Today I invite all of you to pray in order that God's plan for you and all that God wills through you may be realized. Help others to be converted, especially those who are coming to Medjugorje. Dear children, do not allow satan to reign in your hearts. Do not be an image of satan, but be my image. I am calling you to pray so that you may be witnesses of my presence. God cannot fulfill His will without you. God gave everyone free will and it is up to you to be disposed.

Thank you for your response to my call.


February 7, 1986

Dear children!

This parish is elected by me and is special. It is different from others and I am giving great graces to all who are praying from their hearts. Dear children, I am giving you my messages first of all for the parish and then for all others. The messages are first of all for you, and then for others who will accept them. You will be responsible to me and to my Son Jesus.

Thank you for your response to my call.


February 13, 1986

Dear children!

This Lent is a special incentive for you to change. Start from this moment. Turn off the television and renounce other things that are useless. Dear children, I am calling you individually to convert. This time is for you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


February 20, 1986

Dear children!

The second message for Lenten days is that you renew your prayer before the cross. Dear children, I am giving you special graces and Jesus is giving you special gifts from the cross. Accept them and live them. Reflect on Jesus' passion and unite yourselves to Jesus in life.

Thank you for your response to my call.


February 27, 1986

Dear children!

Be humble. Live in humility.

Thank you for your response to my call.


March 6, 1986

Dear children!

Today I am calling you to open yourselves more to God so that He can work through you. For as much as you open yourselves you will receive the fruits from it. I wish to call you again to prayer.

Thank you for your response to my call.


March 13, 1986

Dear children!

Today I am calling you to live this Lent with your little sacrifices. Thank you for every sacrifice you have brought me. Dear children, live in such a way continuously and with love. Help me to bring offerings of your sacrifices to God for which He will reward you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


March 20, 1986

Dear children!

I am calling you to an active approach to prayer. You wish to live everything I am telling you, but you do not have results from your efforts because you do not pray. Dear children, I beg you to open yourselves and begin to pray. Prayer will be joy. If you begin, it will not be boring because you will pray out of pure joy.

Thank you for your response to my call.


March 27, 1986

Dear children!

I wish to thank you for your sacrifices and I invite you to the greater sacrifice, the sacrifice of love. Without love you are not able to accept me or my Son. Without love you cannot witness your experience to others. That is why I invite you, dear children, to begin to live the love in your hearts.

Thank you for your response to my call.


April 3, 1986

Dear children!

I wish to call you to live the Holy Mass. There are many of you who have experienced the beauty of the Mass but there are some who come unwillingly. I have chosen you, dear children, and Jesus is giving you His graces in the Holy Mass. Therefore, consciously live the Holy Mass. Let every coming to Holy Mass be joyful. Come with love and accept the Holy Mass.

Thank you for your response to my call.


April 10, 1986

Dear children!

I wish to call you to grow in love. A flower cannot grow without water. Neither can you grow without God's blessing. You should pray for blessings from day to day so that you can grow up normally and carry your activities with God.

Thank you for your response to my call.


April 17, 1986

Dear children!

Now you are preoccupied about material things and in the material you lose everything that God wants to give you. I am inviting you, dear children, to pray for the gifts of the Holy Spirit that you need now, in order that you may witness my presence here and in everything I am giving you. Dear children, abandon yourselves to me so that I can lead you totally. Do not be so preoccupied about the material things of this world.

Thank you for your response to my call.


April 24, 1986

Dear children!

Today I am calling you to prayer. You are forgetting that everyone is important, especially the elderly in the family. Incite them to pray. Let all the youth be an example by their lives and testify for Jesus. Dear children, I beg you to start transforming yourselves through prayer and then you will know what you have to do.

Thank you for your response to my call.


May 1, 1986

Dear children!

I ask you to begin to change your life in your families. Let your family be a harmonious flower, which I wish to give to Jesus. Dear children, every family should be active in prayer. It is my wish that the fruits of prayer will be seen one day in the family. Only in that way will I give you as petals to Jesus in fulfillment of God's plan.

Thank you for your response to my call.


May 8, 1986

Dear children!

You are responsible for the messages. The source of grace is here, but you, dear children, are the vehicles transmitting the gifts. Therefore, dear children, I am calling you to work responsibly. Everyone will be responsible according to his own measure. Dear children, I am calling you to give the gift to others with love and not to keep it for yourselves.

Thank you for your response to my call.


May 15, 1986

Dear children!

Today, I am calling you to give me your heart so I can change it to be like mine. You are asking yourselves, dear children, why you cannot respond to what I am asking from you. You cannot because you have not given me your heart so I can change it. You are seeking, but not acting. I call you to do everything I tell you. In that way I will be with you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


May 22, 1986

Dear children!

Today I will give you my love. You don't know, dear children, how great is my love and you don't know how to accept it. In many ways I wish to express it but you, dear children, do not recognize it. You don't comprehend my words with your heart and so you are not able to comprehend my love. Dear children, accept me in your life so you will be able to accept all I am saying to you and all I am calling you for.

Thank you for your response to my call.


May 29, 1986

Dear children!

Today I am calling you to a life of love toward God and your neighbor. Without love, dear children, you cannot do anything. Therefore, dear children, I am calling you to live in mutual love. Only in that way can you love me and accept everyone around you. Through coming to your parish, everyone will feel my love through you. Therefore, today I beg you to start with the burning love with which I love you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


June 5, 1986

Dear children!

Today I am calling you to decide if you wish to live the messages I am giving you. I wish you to be active in living and transmitting the messages. Especially, dear children, I desire you to be the reflections of Jesus, who enlightens an unfaithful world that is walking in darkness. I wish that all of you may be a light to all and witness to the light. Dear children, you are not called to darkness, you are called to light and to live the light of your lives.

Thank you for your response to my call.


June 12, 1986

Dear children!

Today I am begging you to pray the rosary with lively faith. Only this way can I help you. Pray, I cannot help you because you don't want to be moved. Dear children, I am calling you to pray the rosary. The rosary should be your commitment, prayed by you with joy and so you will understand why I am visiting you for such a long time. I want to teach you to pray.

Thank you for your response to my call.


June 19, 1986

Dear children!

In these days the Lord has allowed me to intercede for more graces for you. Therefore, dear children, I want to urge you once again to prayer. Pray constantly and in this way I will give you the joy that the Lord gives me. With these graces, dear children, I want your suffering to be for a joy. I am your mother, and I want to help you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


June 24-25, 1986 --The Anniversary

[On the anniversary Mary said that she was giving special blessings to all who had come and to all who were associate with Medjugorje. On the evening of June 24 Mary appeared on the mountain top to Marija and Ivan, where a group of people had gathered. Marija said she recommended everyone to the Madonna. The Virgin blessed everyone and said, "Continue to pray here. Pray the rosary again." She (Mary) said that this Tabor is for everyone and that we should bring this Tabor experience to all our homes. With this Tabor experience we must bring peace and reconciliation. Marija said that Mary appeared with five angels and that she was very happy.]


June 26, 1986

Dear children!

God allowed me to bring about this oasis of peace. I want to invite you to guard it and let the oasis remain pure. Always there are those who are destroying peace and prayer by their carelessness. I am calling you to witness and, by your life, preserve peace.

Thank you for your response to my call.


July 3, 1986

Dear children!

Today, I am calling you to prayer. Without prayer you cannot feel me, nor God, nor the graces I am giving you. Therefore, I call you always to begin and end each with prayer. Dear children, I wish to lead you evermore in prayer, but you cannot grow because you don't want it. I invite you to let prayer have the first place.

Thank you for your response to my call.


July 10, 1986

Dear children!

Today I invite you to holiness. You cannot live without holiness. Consequently, overcome all sin with love. Overcome every difficulty you meet with love. Dear children, I beg you to live love within yourselves.

Thank you for your response to my call.


July 17, 1986

Dear children!

Today, I invite you to meditate on why I am with you for such a long time. I am the mediator between you and God. For that reason, I would like to invite you to live always, out of love, what God is expecting from you. Dear children, live all the messages that I give you in complete humility.

Thank you for your response to my call.


July 24, 1986

Dear children!

I am happy about all of you who are on the way to holiness, and I am begging you to help all those with your witness who don't know how to live in the way of holiness. For that reason, dear children, your families should be the place where holiness is born. Help everybody to live in a sanctified way, especially your own family.

Thank you for your response to my call.


July 31, 1986

Dear children!

Hatred creates division and does not see anybody or anything. I invite you always to carry unity and peace. Especially, dear children, act with love in the place where you live. Let love always be your only tool. With love turn everything to good that the devil wants to destroy and take to himself. Only this way will you be completely mine and I will be able to help you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


August 7, 1986

Dear children!

You know I promised you an oasis of peace here, but you are not aware that around every oasis is a desert where satan is lurking; he wants to tempt each one of you. Dear children, only by prayer are you able to overcome every influence of satan in your place. I am with you, but I can't take away your free will.

Thank you for your response to my call.


August 14, 1986

Dear children!

I am inviting you so that your prayer may be a joyful encounter with the Lord. I cannot guide you unless you yourself experience joy in prayer. I want to guide you in prayer more and more, from day to day, but I do not want to force you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


August 21, 1986

Dear children!

I am grateful for the love you are showing me. Dear children, you know that I am loving you without limit and that I am praying daily to the Lord so that He may help you to understand the love I am showing you. Therefore, dear children, pray and pray and pray.

Thank you for your response to my call.


August 28, 1986

Dear children!

I call you to be a picture to everyone and everything, especially in prayer and witnessing. Dear children, I cannot help the world without you. I want you to cooperate with me in everything, even in the smallest things by your prayer from your heart and by surrendering to me completely. Dear children, help me. In that way I will be able to teach you and to lead you on this road, which I began with you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


September 4, 1986

Dear children!

Today again I am calling you to prayer and fasting. You know, dear children, with your help I can do everything and force satan not to seduce people to evil and to remove him from this place. Satan, dear children, watches for every individual. He wants particularly to bring confusion to every one of you. Dear children, I ask that your every day becomes prayer and complete surrender to God.

Thank you for your response to my call.


September 11, 1986

Dear children!

For these days when you celebrate the cross and joy, I wish your cross to be joyful. Dear children, pray that you can accept sickness and suffering with love like Jesus. Only in that way can I give you the graces of healing with the joy that Jesus allows.

Thank you for your response to my call.


September 18, 1986

Dear children!

Today again I am grateful for everything you have done for me in these days. I am thanking you in the name of Jesus, especially for the sacrifices you offered in the last week. Dear children, you are forgetting that I want sacrifices from you to help you and to banish satan from you. Therefore, I am calling you again to offer sacrifices with a special reverence toward God.

Thank you for your response to my call.


September 23, 1986

Dear children, through your own peace, I am calling you to help others to see and to start searching for peace. Dear children, you are at peace and therefore, you cannot comprehend the absence of peace. Again, I am calling you so that through prayer and your life you will help destroy everything evil in people and uncover the deception that satan is using. Pray for truth to prevail in every heart.

Thank you for your response to my call.


October 2, 1986

Dear children!

Today again I invite you to prayer. You, dear children, do not realize the preciousness of prayer. Now is the time of prayer. Now, nothing else is important. Now, nobody is important except God. Dear children, dedicate yourselves to prayer with special love. Only in that way can God give you graces.

Thank you for your response to my call.


October 9, 1986

Dear children!

You know that I wish to guide you on the way of holiness, but I do not want to force you. I do not want you to be holy by force. I wish every one of you to help yourselves and me by your little sacrifices so that I can guide you to be more holy day by day. Therefore, dear children, I do not want to force you to live the messages; but rather this long time I am with you shows that I love you immeasurably and that I wish every single one of you to be holy.

Thank you for your response to my call.


October 15, 1986

Dear children!

Today, also, I want to show you how much I love you. I am sorry that I am not able to help each and every one of you to fathom my love. Therefore, dear children, I am calling you to prayer and complete surrender to God, because satan wants to conquer you in everyday affairs. He wants to take the first place in your life. Pray, dear children, without ceasing.

Thank you for your response to my call.


October 24, 1986

Dear children!

Today I invite you to pray. I give you a special invitation, dear children, to pray for peace. Without your prayers, my dear children, I cannot help you to understand what my Lord has given me to give you. Therefore, dear children, pray that peace will be given to you by God.

Thank you for your response to my call.


October 30, 1986

Dear children!

Today also I want to call you to take seriously and live the messages that I am giving you. Dear children, because of you I have remained this long to help you to put into practice all the messages that I am giving you. Therefore, dear children, out of love for me live all the messages that I am giving you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


November 6, 1986

Today, I would like to invite you to pray day by day for the souls in purgatory. Every soul needs prayer and grace to reach God and His love. With this, you too, dear children, will find new intercessors who will help you in life to know that all the things of this earth are not important to you. The only one you have to turn to is in heaven. For this reason, dear children, pray without interruption so that you might help yourselves and those whom prayer gives you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


November 13, 1986

Dear children!

Today, also, I call you to pray with your whole heart and to change your life day by day. Especially, I am calling you, dear children, by your prayers and sacrifices. Begin to live in holiness, because I want every one of you who has been here at this spring of grace to come to heaven with a special gift for me, the gift of holiness. Therefore, dear children, pray daily and change your life in order that you may be holy. I will always be close to you.

Thank you for your response to my call.


November 20, 1986

Dear children!

Today, also, I am calling you to live and to pay attention with a special love to all the messages I am giving you. God does not want you lukewarm and indecisive, but totally committed to Him. You know that I love you and that I am burning out of love for you. Therefore, dear children, commit yourselves to love so that you will comprehend and burn with God's love from day to day. Decide for love, dear children, so that love may prevail in all of you, not human love, but God's love.

Thank you for your response to my call.


November 27, 1986

Dear children!

Today, also, I invite you to dedicate your life to me with love, in order that I can guide you with love. I love you, dear children, with a special love and I want to bring you to heaven to God. I want you to comprehend that this life is very short in comparison with that in heaven. Therefore, dear children, today decide anew for God. Only in that way can I show you how much you are beloved to me and how much I want all of you to be saved and to be with me in heaven.

Thank you for your response to my call.


December 4, 1986

Dear children!

Today, also, I invite you to prepare your hearts for these days when the Lord is about to purify you in a special way from all the sins of your past life. You, dear children, cannot do it by yourselves, and for that reason I am here to help you. Pray, dear children. Only in that way will you be able to recognize all the evil that dwells in you, and abandon it to the Lord so that He may purify your hearts completely. So, dear children, pray without ceasing and prepare your hearts in penance and fasting.

Thank you for your response to my call.


December 11, 1986

Dear children!

I invite you especially to pray during this season so that you may experience the joy of meeting the newborn Jesus. Dear children, I desire that you experience these days just as I experience them, with joy. I wish to guide you and show you the joy that I want to bring to all of you. Therefore, dear children, pray and surrender yourselves completely.

Thank you for your response to my call.


December 18, 1986

Dear children!

Once again today I want to invite you to pray. When you pray, dear children, you become more beautiful. You become like flowers, which after the snow show forth their beauty, and whose colors become indescribable. And so you, dear children, after prayer before God display everything that is beautiful so that you may become beloved by Him. Therefore, dear children, pray and open your inner self to the Lord so that He may make of you a harmonious and beautiful flower for heaven.

Thank you for your response to my call.


December 25, 1986

Dear children!

Today also I am grateful to my Lord for all He is giving me, especially for this gift of being with you again today. Dear children, these are the days in which the Father is giving special graces to all who open their hearts. I am blessing you. My desire, dear children, is that you may recognize God's graces and place everything at His disposal so that He may be glorified by you. My heart follows all your steps attentively.

Thank you for your response to my call.
