The second IT conference to be held in Medjugorje from March 20 to 23, 2025

Since 1981 until today, Medjugorje has developed into a world-famous place of prayer and spirituality. In our desire to share this experience with others, the Mir Medjugorje Information Center is organizing the second Medjugorje IT Conference (ITM), which provides an opportunity for the spiritual growth as well as meeting people from the IT sector. The conference will be held in Medjugorje from March 20-23, 2025. In an IT sector often driven by commercial applications and mainstream projects, it is rare to find content that aligns with the deep spiritual interests of software engineers.

Pope Francis encourages us to use technology in the spread of evangelization when he says: “It is necessary for the Church’s mission to adapt to the times and to use the modern means that technology makes available to us. It is about investing in the contemporary areas of proclaiming mercy and God’s goodness. We should use these resources, especially the Internet, without becoming servants of these resources. We must avoid becoming hostages of the net and instead catch fish, that is, attract souls to the Lord.”

Last year’s IT conference, in addition to the prayer part of the program, enriched the participants with three days of excellent lectures, panel discussions, constructive and creative workshops, networking, socializing and meeting people from the IT world who have the same value system, which, as they themselves testify, is difficult find in this branch. The Medjugorje Catholic IT community was founded as a result of this conference.

The newly formed Catholic IT community from Medjugorje is actually a sown seed that a group of technological professionals will continue to water, nurture, in order to spread into large branches all over the world and bring abundant fruit for the good of the whole world. Of course, our doors are open to all those who recognize themselves as a part of this group, and we invite them to join us this year as well.
