THE CROSS WAS GOD’S PLAN
The Story of Cross Mountain
✝️ The Story of Cross Mountain in Medjugorje
Fr. Leon Pereira shares the history and spiritual significance of Cross Mountain (KriĹľevac), where local people built the enormous cross as an expression of their faith and devotion.
He reflects on messages attributed to Our Lady of Medjugorje, including that the cross was part of God’s plan, and that she has often been present there praying for the conversion of people.
Cross Mountain also carries a message for each of us. Everyone encounters crosses in life. Our Lady leads us toward Jesus, intercedes for us, and encourages us to remain close to Christ even when carrying our own crosses.
In Medjugorje, the Cross becomes not simply a sign of suffering, but a sign of faith, conversion, hope, and victory in Christ.
✝️ We rejoice in the Cross.
