Medjugorje: The Message

This audio condensation of the best-selling "Medjugorje the Message," read by the author himself, tells how his life was radically altered by Medjugorje's call to peace and conversion. In a tiny village in the mountains of Yugoslavia, the Virgin Mary, mother of Jesus Christ, had reportedly been appearing to a group of local teenagers, beginning in June 1981, and continuing every evening since. So begins Wayne Weible's life-transforming investigation into the veracity of one of the most popular Marian apparition claims in History.

Wayne Weible is a former newspaper publisher and columnist who became interested in the alleged apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary, to six young Croatians in the tiny farming village of Medjugorje in Bosnia-Hercegovina, in October 1985. He has authored eight books on his experiences and investigations of the reported apparitions, all which have become international best sellers.The first is titled, "Medjugorje: The Message” with more than 500,000 copies sold in the US and an estimated 500,000 copies in other languages around the world. (Paraclete Press, September 1989). Medjugorje: The Message is the top-selling book internationally on the Medjugorje apparitions. Weible spends most of his professional time writing and lecturing on the phenomenon of Medjugorje, traveling throughout the world and the United States. In the past 25 years, he has lectured on this phenomenon in virtually every major city in the U.S., and most cities in Canada. He has also appeared on numerous national, regional and local television and radio programs. Included are the Mother Angelica Television show, and the Oprah Winfrey Show.Weible converted to the Roman Catholic Church in December, 1991; however, he continues to emphasize that "The message coming from the Virgin Mary in Medjugorje is for all faiths, not just for Catholics -- or for that matter just for Christians." Weible has traveled to Medjugorje over 100 times and is personally acquainted with all of the visionaries. He is married and lives with his wife in the mountains of North Georgia, in the small town of Hiawassee. He is a graduate of the University of South Carolina, with a degree in Journalism and is preparing to pursue a Masters degree in theology. He is the father of six children.
