Svetozar Kraljevic, OFM, has had time to reflect on the meaning of pilgrimage, and on the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which have been daily occurring at Medjugorje since 1981. Known to pilgrims simply as Father Svet, for eight years he has been assisting there, hearing confessions, giving talks in English, counseling, and serving in any capacity that was needed.

His newest book goes beyond Medjugorje, exploring what it means for each of us to "live the message" of that place, putting it into practice in the reality of daily living. How do we create a "holy environment" in our hearts and homes... how do we know if we have a vocation... how do we protect ourselves and our children from the pervasive world view... what does it mean to surrender one's life to God..

If your faith has been recently awakened, this book will challenge you; if you are an old soldier in God's army, it will be a good companion. For we are all pilgrims - on a journey that will last a lifetime.
