David — we haven’t seen the full text of the letter; you cannot take what has been marked as the end of the letter to BE the apology. We simply don’t know if it was the only “apology” or if there was a lot of grovelling in between. So, saying “is that an apology” is a debate in circles. We should reserve judgement until we know more.

No, if you accept for a moment that Medjugorje was authentic, do you think our Lady would have wanted everybody to stay away for 30 years, waiting for the Church to make a decision?
I do not know much (in fact, next to nothing) about Medjugorje. What ARE the messages? I just glanced through some from a website and they seem to all be similar to "My children... pray to my Son, Jesus, pray, pray."
Is there any other, deeper message?

“The constant and misguided accusations of disobedience by the visionaries and anyone who loves Medjugorje is wearying.”
And what about the disobedience of the Franciscans? How do you defend that?

Our Lady in Medjugorje calls us to repentance, a return to God and prayer. It is a place where countless thousands have returned to their faith or found a faith they never had.
In the lifetime of the visionaries, they will announce, in advance, significant events that will ultimately authenticate the apparitions. But Our Lady has stated that it will be too late then to start converting.

The Franciscans are not disobedient. They can only operate in the Medjugorje parish by cooperating with the bishop. There are difficulties and ambiguities in authority (who does what!) in that area of Bosnia between the Franciscans and the secular clergy which have a long history.
