8th of December 2025 — on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary — we will end our 33-day period of spiritual exercises

Dear participants, brothers and sisters,

On December 8, 2025, on the feast of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary, we will end our 33-day online spiritual exercises.

More than 10,000 participants in many countries took part in the spiritual exercises. The texts were translated into Slovak, Ukrainian, Lithuanian, Latvian, Russian and English.

In Medjugorje at 6:00 a.m. in our community chapel, we will celebrate the Holy Mass, which we will offer:

for all participants,
for the intentions of the Virgin Mary,
for peace in our hearts, families and in the whole world.
During the Holy Mass, we will consecrate ourselves to the Immaculate Heart of the Virgin Mary.
At 7:00 a.m. we will pray the rosary on Podbrdo.

How you can spend this day?

Let us spiritually unite with all those who will consecrate themselves to the Immaculate Heart of the Virgin Mary on this day.
Let us participate in the Holy Mass and receive the Eucharist. Let us offer it for peace in our hearts, families and in the world and for the intentions of the Virgin Mary.
After Holy Mass, we will pray the prayer of consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Divine Heart of Jesus, which we prayed every day during the spiritual exercises.
During the day, we will pray the entire Holy Rosary.
From 5:00 PM, we can spiritually join the evening prayer program in Medjugorje.

If you feel that Our Lady is calling you to do something more and more concrete for her, we recommend that you, for example, write her a letter and thank her for all the graces that Jesus has granted you through her intercession. Write her a personal consecration for one year in your own words.

You can start, for example, like this: “Our Lady, I give you this year from December 8, 2025 to December 8, 2026 for your intentions and plans for peace…”

She invites us and promises us: “Dear children, pray, fast, make sacrifices for my intentions. You will not regret it — neither you, nor your children, nor your children’s children.”

In the coming year, during the day, preferably in the morning, let us remind ourselves more often that we have given this year to Mary — for her intentions. Let us pray short, pointed prayers, for example: “Mary, I entrust this day to you for your intentions.” When we experience suffering or trials, let us pray: “Mary, I entrust my prayers and suffering to you for your intentions. Take care of everything else.”

We are united with you in prayer and gratitude for all that the Lord does through the intercession of the Virgin Mary.
