Emma, a 22-year-old from Ireland, is walking 100km to Medjugorje this Christmas Eve to fundraise for Mary’s Meals. Inspired by her pilgrimage to Medjugorje, Emma's journey is a blend of faith and service as she seeks to provide school meals for children in poverty-stricken areas. This blog shares her story of transformation, the power of the Mary’s Meals mission, and how she is putting her faith into action."

Mary’s Meals founder Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow has been in Medjugorje as a pilgrim this weekend and it was his first visit to the place where he experienced, as a young man, a renewal of his faith, since the Holy See announced the “nulla osta” for pilgrimages to Medjugorje shrine 19th September 2024.

In a world often overshadowed by challenges, the global movement of Mary’s Meals shines as a beacon of hope, inspiring individuals and communities to come together for a common cause: feeding children in need. Emely and Shane Virostek’s journey of faith and service began while listening to the Abiding Together podcast.

On Thursday, the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith published a document approved by Pope Francis. This Vatican document emphasizes the "abundant and widespread fruits associated with the devotion to Mary, Queen of Peace, and pilgrimages to Medjugorje," describing these fruits as "beautiful and positive."
