The small town of Medjugorje, Bosnia-Herzegovina was a simple and unassuming farming community, unheard of to most people. But all that changed during the summer of 1981, and it has since been the meeting place of millions of pilgrims. In Fingerprints of God, author Stephen J. Malloy chronicles the reported miracles and extraordinary supernatural activity that have occurred in Medjugorje since that time. It all started when five teenagers and a ten-year old boy began to report in tandem that they were having heavenly visions. According to their witness, the Madonna, the Virgin Mary had begun appearing to them in order to call the world to an urgent conversion, reconciliation, and peace through Jesus Christ. Fingerprints of God uniquely combines: - the author's own experiences as a pilgrim to Medjugorje; - a detailed description of the central messages given by the Virgin Mary, according to the six visionaries; - stories about miraculous healings and extraordinary signs; - the meaning of the ten secrets, concerning prophesied events to occur in Medjugorje and in the wider world; - thorough examination of what the Catholic Church has said in its official capacity concerning the reported apparitions and related phenomena; - positive assessments of renowned theologians; - relationship made between the Medjugorje messages, Christian morality, and biblical revelation, especially the teachings of Jesus. Celebrating thirty-one years of the Madonna's special presence, Fingerprints of God accounts that Medjugorje has been host now to more than twenty-eight million pilgrims from all over the world. | Fingerprints of God by Stephen J.
