In the 1980s, six children in Međugorje reported daily visions of Mary, leading to the town becoming a significant pilgrimage site, yet the Vatican has not authenticated these apparitions.
The Vatican's long-awaited assessment on the Međugorje apparitions has stirred debate, as Cardinal Fernández outlines the findings impacting the faithful and analyzing decades of spiritual experiences.
Despite the Mass distribution reaching 1.7 million in the past year, local bishops remain skeptical, questioning the authenticity of the 'seers' amid concerns of economic motivations.
The pilgrimage economy has drastically changed Međugorje, transforming it into a vital hub of religious tourism, supported by various hospitality services catering specifically to visiting Catholics.
