By purchasing this calendar you help children and wards of "Mother's Village" from Medjugorje, which is, according to our founder, Fr Slavko Barbaric, "conceived as a corner where every life has a chance."
The secret, the initiator and call for this new way of life is Mary’s presence. With her presence she is showing us love, and “her love is motherly love, which creates the conditions for life, for work, growth and uprising. There, however, where motherly love fails, in war or in peace, life becomes impossible; violence and the spirit of destruction grow there. To be open for that motherly love means to allow God's Spirit to move within us. In this way, by the grace of God, we will create new conditions for life and changes of the inhumane circumstances of our world.” (Fr S. Barbaric, Message for the present moment, pg. 31, Information Centre MIR Medjugorje, 2001).
Our desire for this calendar is to be little spiritual encouragement to us through each day, month after month, to assist in opening to the maternal love of Our Lady. And not to forget that we are all followed by her special motherly blessing!
