Summary: The Best true-story I have ever read
Review: Before I read this book I hated all religions except Catholicism and Judasism, but reading this book I realized just how wrong I was. This book tells what Mary's message is from God, and it taught me how to live my life better. Read this book, it rules!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Scam!
Review: Get the real facts about Medjugorje from someone not involved in the scam. This author earns his livelihood peddling this nonsense all over the world. Besides, this book is terribly out of date because the author speculated that the world would end in 1997 and we're all still here in 2000. That should give you an indication of the truth of these so-called "apparitions". The unfortunate truth about Medjugorje is that it is a scam invented by the Franciscan priests to help them in their fight with their local bishop. One of them had gotten a nun pregnant and the bishop had revoked his faculties (right to act as a priest). The "visionaries" all ran to the bishop insisting that the Virgin Mary was on the side of this priest. The Virgin Mary would not take the side of a disobedient priest over that of the rightful bishop. BTW, this priest now lives with the nun he impregnated and they have a souvenier stand in Medjugorje. This "apparition" has been condemned by the local bishop of Mostar. He became convinced that the "visionaries" were lying because after promising to tell the truth with their hand on a Crucifix proceeded to lie about where they were when the first "apparition" happened. The "visionaries" have become wealthy. They have mansions in Medjugorje and Mercedes. One has married a former Miss Massachusetts. Many of the other characters involved in this scam have been discredited. One of the most infamous was the child molesting priest, Ken Roberts, who preached the Medjugorje "gospel" throughout the world and on EWTN. Money sent from the US by pious Catholics to Medjugorje during the war was used to ethnically cleanse Bosnians and Serbs from the area. The Franciscans have been involved in Croatian nationalism from the beginning of the war even going so far as to insert pro-Croat messages into the supposed "messages" of Our Lady. This is not a dramatic departure for them because during the Second World War, the Franciscans aided the Croatian fascists in their genocide of the Serbians. Approximately 200,000 Serbs were massacred by the Croats during the war for refusing to convert to Roman Catholicism. Serbs (men, women, children and Orthodox priests) were forced at gunpoint to jump from the supposed mountain of the "apparitions". In short, do not buy this book! Stay away from this nonsense. Read about approved apparitions like Fatima or Lourdes. (BTW, Sister Lucia who still receives messages from Our Lady has never mentioned Medjugorje. If it were an authentic apparition, surely Sister Lucia would support it.) If you want more information, read the story on the Crisis web-site about this. Also, there is a web-site with all of the official documents from the Diocese of Mostar about the "apparitions".

Summary: Profound!
Review: Hello all and Christ is Risen!

I wanted to write this review and say that this book is profoundly beautiful. Read it and get to know God's heart through Mary His Mother, the Blessed Virgin. I kid you not, this book WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE, because God speaks through Wayne's words directly to your heart. From my perspective, a Jewish convert to Catholicism, this book helped me and made me believe fully and trust in Jesus Christ GOD! Please don't judge the idea of a 2,000 year old Lady, the mother of a historical figure, Jesus Christ, (who you will come to know as God), frighten you or dissuade you from reading this beautiful book. Read it, read it, read it.

Christ is Risen!

Summary: informative and inspirational
Review: I am about half-way through reading this book and I knew from the first 3 chapters that I would cherish it as one of my favorite books. Weible's story reminds us that miracles abound still today. Every page fills me with awe and a greater desire to serve our Lord. I feel blessed to have been introduced to the book and the opportunity to meet one of the seers here in the United States at the end of this year. Here is a site with his speaking schedule at the bottom: http://www.medjugorje.org/

The Medjugorje seers' portrait of Purgatory and Hell matches the one presented by Maria Simma, an Austrian nun who receives visitations from Purgatory souls. I highly recommend Sister Emmanuel's (of Medjugorje) interview, called The Amazing Secret of the Souls of Purgatory. Like the stories of the visitations of the Virgin Mother, it is filled with answers one would never have dreamed they would receive in this life. I have grown to trust in them whole-heartedly.

Summary: A Real Wake Up Call From God...He Loves You
Review: I cant believe a super natural phenomenon of this magnitude is occuring right now..and yet, much of the world doesn't know about it. Thanks Wayne for spreading this incredible news from Yugoslavia..I look at the world in a whole new way now.

Summary: an excellent book that is riveting and changes lives
Review: I could not put this book down. Other people I have given it too have felt the same way. It presents an excellent account of several personal experiances that people have had relating to the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary. All of them have been inspirational. It truely makes you think about how we are living our lives in this day and age. I know it changed my life and I am very grateful for it.

Summary: Medjugorje: The Message
Review: I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK. I am a convert Catholic and wanted to find out how another Protestant feels about Medjugorje. The writer tells his story with such love and passion. I honestly think both Catholics and Protestants will understand and appreciate his experiences. And his views and experiences are something I can relate to. I could NOT put this book down...outstanding! NO ONE can tell me Medjugorje and Fatima is not for real. Prasie the Lord!!!
