Medjugorje, a small village in the southwest of Bosnia and Herzegovina, has captured the world’s attention due to a series of apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary to six children, beginning on June 24, 1981 — apparitions that continue to this day. Since then, pilgrims from all over the world have journeyed to Medjugorje, leaving inspired, renewed, and touched by its spiritual grace.
Join a 14-day Pilgrimage to the Sanctuary of Our Lady, Queen of Peace, in Medjugorje, along with Croatia and Slovenia, led by Fr. Godwin Tatlonghari from April 23 to May 6, 2026. Discover for yourself why Medjugorje is a special place chosen by God – where His presence is deeply felt and His peace reigns.
Begin your pilgrimage in Dubrovnik, Croatia, one of the Mediterranean’s most beautiful cities. A UNESCO World Heritage site, this enchanting destination has long been called “the Pearl of the Adriatic.” Celebrate Mass at the 15th-century Church of St. Nicholas in nearby Cavtat, and enjoy a walking tour of the historic “Old Dubrovnik,” taking in its major sights. Not to be missed is the celebration of the Holy Eucharist at the Church of St. Blaise, offering a sacred moment of prayer and reflection.
Travel onward to Medjugorje for a three-day stay in this sacred place of pilgrimage, where the faithful come to deepen their relationship with God. Visit the Church of St. James, the spiritual heart of Medjugorje, and participate in moments of prayer and reflection with pilgrims from around the world. Climb Apparition Hill (Mount Podbrdo), where Our Lady first appeared to the visionaries, and spend time in quiet contemplation. Ascend Krizevac Mountain to pray before the Cross of Christ, which holds a relic of the True Cross—an experience that draws pilgrims ever closer to His love and mercy.
Next stop is Split, home to some of the Mediterranean’s most impressive ancient sites, including Peristyle Square, Diocletian’s Palace with its remarkable underground cellars, the scenic Promenade, and the Cathedral of St. Domnius.
Celebrate Mass at the Church of St. Dominic in Trogir, followed by a walking tour of this historic town. Then head to Plitvice Lakes for a two-night stay amid this breathtaking natural wonder. Within this lush, forested national park, 16 crystal-clear lakes cascade into one another through a stunning series of waterfalls and cascades.
Depart Croatia and journey into Slovenia, arriving in the storybook town of Bled. Breathtaking and impossibly photogenic, Bled is famed for its charming island church, a medieval castle perched dramatically atop a rocky cliff, and the majestic Julian Alps rising in the background. En route, stop in Ljubljana for a guided walking tour of Slovenia’s lively capital, including a funicular ride up to Ljubljana Castle for sweeping views of the Old Town.
In Bled, celebrate Mass at the Parish Church of St. Martin before exploring the enchanting Lake Bled. Admire the imposing Bled Castle, towering nearly 100 meters above the lake, then board a traditional pletna boat to cross the crystal waters to the island. Climb the 244 steps leading to the 17th-century Church of the Assumption of Mary, seemingly floating at the heart of the lake. From the castle above, take in breathtaking views of the town, the lake, and the surrounding countryside—an unforgettable highlight of the journey.
Celebrate Mass at the National Shrine of Mary Help of Christians in Brezje, the largest pilgrimage church in Slovenia and the national shrine of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Ljubljana.
Cap off your pilgrimage in Zagreb, the capital and largest city of Croatia. Explore the city’s historic heart, including the charming Upper Town with its timeless streets and iconic landmarks such as the Stone Gate, which serves as a shrine to the Blessed Virgin Mary. The revered painting housed there miraculously survived the Great Fire of Zagreb in 1731, making it a place of deep devotion and prayer. Visit the nearby Zagreb Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, one of the city’s most significant spiritual and architectural treasures.
