45th Medjugorje Anniversary – MISTERY in VATICAN! Late Cardinal Ruini Certified the Holy Lady’s Apparitions as Authentic (Video). Then “Masonic Clergy” Hid this
MEDJUGORJE: Message from the Queen of Peace – June 25, 2026 – 45th Anniversary
June 25, 1981 – 2026: 45th anniversary of the first vision of the Queen of Peace by the six visionaries in Medjugorje
The message was given to the visionary Marija Pavlovic in her daily vision.
“Dear sons, rejoice with me because the Most High has permitted me to be with you, to lead you to Him who is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. Rejoice, little children, and be joyful even in difficulties, and you will have strength because you will be aware of your fleeting nature and will know how to offer everything to God. Therefore, do not forget: I am your mother and I love you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

The Cardinal who led the Medjugorje Commission
article first posted on June, 18, 2026
“It is worth remembering the last important task entrusted to the cardinal by Pope Ratzinger after the conclusion of his term as president of the CEI and Vicar of Rome: the leadership of a special commission to investigate and study the apparitions of Medjugorje. This was a considerable and meticulous undertaking, which concluded with a substantially positive opinion regarding the very early phase of the phenomenon, which the cardinal will hand over to Benedict XVI’s successor, Pope Francis.”
With these words, Andrea Tornielli, one of the most experienced journalists on the visions of the Queen of Peace (Holy Lady) that appeared to the six visionaries of Bosnia and Herzegovina, recalls the crucial role played by Cardinal Camillo Runi, who recently passed away (details on the funeral below with the Pope homily).
He reminds those who did not know him well of the cardinal’s spiritual charisma. Strengthened by the intellectual virtues bestowed by the Holy Spirit (Intelligence, Science, and Wisdom), he knelt with the devotion of a true Christian at the most solemn and enduring earthly “Epiphany” of the Heavenly Mother.
Ruini’s Final Report on the Authenticity of the First Apparitions of Holy Lady
Today, the journalist Tornielli writes as editorial director of the Holy See’s Dicastery for Communication, but he was once the first to announce the exceptional achievement of the Ruini Commission, which we report in full in an article republished by Christian Renaissance (Gospa network, available in English with machine translation) and below in some excerpts.
“The commission noted a very clear difference between the beginning of the phenomenon and its subsequent development. It therefore decided to vote separately on the two different phases: the first seven alleged apparitions, which occurred between June 24 and July 3, 1981, and everything that happened afterward. The members and experts voted 13 times in favor of recognizing the supernatural nature of the first visions,“
Tornielli himself wrote in La Stampa on May 16, 2017, in a memorable article: it is, in fact, the only detailed documentary evidence on the final report of the Ruini Commission established by Pope Benedict XVI, born Joseph Ratzinger.

The “subtle cardinal,” as the high-ranking prelate from Sassuolo was nicknamed for his theological acumen and his pastoral ability to influence politics to emphasize the role of the Catholic Church – as he did as secretary and president of the Italian Episcopal Conference – even in the face of the controversial “Medjugorje mystery,” opposed by the Bishop of Mostar and many other cardinals, he was inspired by the Most Holy Paraclete to identify the best strategy to certify the authenticity of a prodigious supernatural phenomenon, congenitally unacceptable in light of the history of Marian apparitions.
The Clergy’s Doubts, Forgetful of the Marian Prophecies of the End Times
Yes, because the clergy, increasingly captivated by the sirens of Enlightenment Scientism, clearly inspired by Masonic philosophy, were confused, like the Apostles before the capture of Jesus in the Garden of Olives and like St. Thomas after the Resurrection of the Messiah, and were tempted to reject a new and untried Marian mystagogy.
Never in the history of the apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary, She prolonged her daily appointments with the visionaries Marja Pavlovic, Vicha Ivankovic, and Ivan Dragigevic indefinitely. These appointments continue, as do the occasional ones on March 18th with the visionary Miriana Dragićević-Soldo, the sole custodian of all 10 Secrets.
In his article, Tornielli mentioned, without analyzing it, “the theme of the apocalyptic ‘secrets’ that the visionaries claim were revealed to them by the apparition,” and for decades this has made cardinals tremble, the ones with their faith built on the sands of human logic.
All this has raised profound doubts in the ecclesiastical world, which seems to have forgotten many other Marian prophecies (from Lourdes to Farima) about the “end times’, clearly etched in the announcements of Jesus Christ in the Gospels and, above all, in theBook of Revelation by St. John the Apostle and Evangelist.
But Cardinal Camillo Ruini, certainly inspired by the Holy Spirit and his brilliant intuition, found the solution to answer both the millions of priests who pilgrimed to Medjugorje out of concrete faith in the prodigious phenomenon and the skeptics of the clergy.
That is, the recognition of the supernatural nature of the first seven visions and the suspension of judgment on subsequent ones.
Pope Francis on the “Madonna Who Doesn’t Work as a Postwoman”
The Ruini Commission thus handed Pope Francis the authority to publicly declare the authenticity of the Marian apparitions in Medjugorje. But the Holy Father, prodigal in his social media posts with embarrassing tweets on various issues of the Church’s magisterium, had just reached the pinnacle of his communicative bombast:
“I prefer Our Lady as Mother, and not Our Lady as the head of the telegraph office who sends a message every day at a certain hour,” uttered the Argentine pontiff Jorge Mario Bergoglio in a post that was summed up by the media detractors of Medjugorje with the simple and brutal phrase: “Our Lady is not a postman.”
I made my tenth pilgrimage to the shrine in Herzegovina just a few months after this unfortunate outing in the spring of 2017, and to my great surprise, I appreciated the catechesis of the visionary Marja, who invited us to pray for the Pope, reminding us that the Church, the Mystical Body of Christ, has the pastors it deserves.
And even the Pontiffs, I might add, are considered dogmatically infallible only when they pronounce Doctrina ex Cathedra.
As we noted upon his death, Pope Francis was a pastor so devoted to Divine Mercy that he trivialized the Christian evangelical message in a para-Buddhist vision of universal love detached from mystagogy.
He was unjustly criticized as an “anti-Catholic conspiracy theorist,” even though he was actually a victim of his naive nature, gripped by a sort of “Don Abbondio Syndrome communication“ (in reference to the fearful priest in Alessandro Manzoni’s The Betrothed), when confronting the prevailing scientistic rationalism among many cardinals and bishops.
Infact many of them are lured by the heretical Catholic-Masonic religious philosophy to the point of obsequiously attending the lodges and conferences of the Hooded Friars despite the past Papal excommunication of Freemasonry.

This is why the Holy Father lacked the courage to make the long-awaited official announcement regarding the authenticity of the first apparitions and was tempted by the doubts of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, to which he entrusted the task of reviewing the Ruini report, as if theological logic could logically prove a Christian supernatural mystery.
It is as if an ecclesiastical commission had been established to prove the scientific validity of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
The Note of the Doctrine of the Faith erases any supernatural significance of the apparitions.
The result was seen on September 19, 2024, when the new Prefect of the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith, Cardinal Victor Manuel Fernandez, known as Tucho, who has been criticized for his anti-biblical pastoral endorsements of the LGBTQ lobby, promulgated a “Note regarding the spiritual experience linked to Medjugorje,” countersigned by Pope Francis.
With a pastoral strategy more malicious than effective, the Vatican recognized the spiritual and social “good fruits” consistent with Catholic morality and biblical teachings resulting from Our Lady’s apparitions in Medjugorje, pronouncing Pope Francis’s official “nihil obstat” on pilgrimages to the Marian shrine of the Parish of St. James, run by the Franciscans.
On the surface, this might have seemed very positive news, but it was far from it.
In fact, the supernatural nature of the phenomenon was no longer recognized, nor was the authenticity of the apparitions of the Queen of Peace to the visionaries. Consequently, the previous pronouncement of the Ruini Commission was also swept away.
By a curious coincidence, noted only by Gospa News, the statement was released on the anniversary of the apparitions at La Salette, when the Blessed Virgin revealed to the visionary Melanie Calvat the prophecy regarding the “Ministers of Disorder” of the Catholic Church.
This result was highlighted by Father Livio Fanzaga, director of Radio Maria, in one of his recent editorials, noting that after the Vatican’s pronouncement, which he initially welcomed with great enthusiasm, the visionaries’ catechesis and their testimonies on the apparitions have ceased to have the public prominence of previous years.
This is why, as a pilgrim devoted to the Gospa (Holy Lady in Croatian) and as the founding director of Gospa News, with ten published reports on the apparitions and the fruits of the Queen of Peace, today I wanted to celebrate Cardinal Ruini’s excellent work on Medjugorje, which deserves all the honors!
Probably even those of the altars…

Pope remembers Cardinal Ruini as a ‘wise and diligent shepherd’
Originally published by Daniele Piccini on Vatican News English
A “wise and diligent shepherd” who served the Church “both in the humblest tasks and in those laden with the greatest responsibility.” A guide for the People of God and for his brother bishops, offering a direction “in important and delicate moments.”
That was how Pope Leo XIV, in his funeral homily, described Cardinal Camillo Ruini—who died on June 16 at the age of 95—in St. Peter’s Basilica on Thursday afternoon.

The late cardinal served as Vicar General of the Diocese of Rome and Archpriest of the Basilica of St. John Lateran from 1991 to 2008, and as President of the Italian Episcopal Conference from 1991 to 2007. In his homily, Pope Leo recalled with gratitude the projects, insights, and initiatives undertaken by Ruini during his many years of service to the Church.
The cardinal’s coffin, resting on a carpet in front of the altar, bore the open Book of the Gospels, to which he had devoted his entire life.
A response to God’s charity
The Pope said that the readings chosen for the day’s liturgy suggested attitudes of fidelity to Christ and the Church, of which Cardinal Ruini was a joyful example. The first reading came from St Paul’s Letter to the Romans, which reminds us that nothing can separate us from the love of God—a truth that, Leo said, also “animated” the late cardinal.
Likewise, the Pope said that the reading from the Gospel according to John—in which Jesus prays to the Father that “those whom you have given me” may be “where I am”—pointed to the guiding principle of Cardinal Ruini’s life.
“In these words,” Pope Leo said, “we find summarized the program, the direction, and the ultimate goal of a life spent for the good of his brothers and lived in constant search for God’s designs for his own salvation and theirs.”
The late Cardinal Ruini, Leo said, had the opportunity to work “with some of the great saints of recent times, such as Saint Paul VI and Saint John Paul II.” It was from the latter, Leo said, that Ruini absorbed the most.
Toward truth
All the exemplary personal qualities of the cardinal, Pope Leo continued, find their highest expression in the motto he chose for his episcopate: “The truth will set you free.” This piece of biblical wisdom, he said, is particularly instructive to recall in our times, which are characterised by disorientation and fluidity.
St. Pio’ Prophecy on Christians’ homelands, NWO Rockefeller’s Abortion law and Masons war
Bringing his homily to a close, the Pope prayed that God would grant the deceased “the reward of His peace that knows no end” and thanked those who, with “devoted dedication …. accompanied, assisted, and supported the cardinal” during the years of his ecclesial service as well as in those of old age and infirmity.
At the conclusion of the liturgy, after a prayer in Latin, Leo XIV sprinkled the coffin with holy water and incensed it with the thurible.
