In this video we share Medjugorje Visionary Mirjana on Meeting Pope John Paul II.
The Visionary Mirjana of Mejuhgoria had the opportunity to meet Pope John Paul II in 1987.
Archbishop Frane Franic accompanied 1,000 students from his diocese to Castel Gandolfo near Rome to see the Holy Father.
Visionary, Mirjana, was among the youth.
When the Pope was passing by, Archbishop Franic introduced John Paul II to Mirjana.
He showed obvious pleasure and interest in meeting her.
He invited her to meet with him in Castel Gandolfo the following morning.
They met for 20 minutes in private.
Years later, after the death of Pope John Paul II, while speaking with a group of pilgrims outside her home, Mirjana recalled her meeting with the Holy Father, revealing part of their conversation together, parts of which were somewhat humorous.
The following comes from the transcript of her talk:
I was in the Vatican in Saint Peter's Church with all the other pilgrims in the company of an Italian priest.
The Pope passed by and gave his blessing and, among others, blessed me Then the priest who was with me said: "Holy father, this is Mirjana from Mejuhgoria."
He came back, blessed me again and left .
In the afternoon we received an invitation to come to Castel Gandolfo the next day at 8 a m.
I met Pope John Paul II there.
He really was a holy man.
He looked and spoke with such love that you felt so good in his company.
It's that feeling when you're in someone's company with whom you feel really good; when you lack nothing; when you want nothing more than to be with that person.
That's how it was for me with Pope John Paul II.
Again, I cannot describe all the feelings I was filled with the night before meeting him.
I was so excited that I couldn't sleep because I couldn't believe that the next day was the day of my meeting with the Holy Father.
From time to time I would calm down, and then I would think again: Alas, tomorrow I will be with the Pope! (she laughs) So I stayed up all night.
The next day I came before him, and when they finally met I burst into tears.
Probably, because I spent the whole night sleepless in anticipation.
I thought to myself: I am with a holy man!
Tears just flowed from my eyes, I felt a lump in my throat and I couldn't say a word.
He saw that I was very nervous and he started a conversation, so I finally got my composure.
Then, among other things, he told me:
"If I were not the Pope, I would already be in Mejuhgoria confessing. "
I know everything and I followed everything.
Take care of Mejuhgoria; it is hope for all mankind, hope for the whole world. "
I will never forget what I experienced then; that love that radiated from him, because he was a man who loved; who loved each person the way God asks us to.
He was a man who wanted to help everyone.
Because of all this, Pope John Paul II is a primordial saint.
