Movie about Medjugorje to be featured in Indianapolis on Jan. 26

All are invited to view a movie about Medjugorje called Apparition Hill at Glendale Theater, 6102 N. Rural St., in Indianapolis, at 7 p.m. on Jan. 26.

The movie features two atheists, one believer, a mother struggling with cancer, a man diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a struggling addict and a woman questioning her faith as they search for answers to life’s big questions on Apparition Hill in Medjugorje, in Bosnia-Herzogovina, where apparitions of the Blessed Mother have been reported to be seen by six visionaries sporadically since 1981. Ann Vucic, an English interpreter for the visionaries, will be in attendance to share her own experiences with Medjugorje and the visionaries.

The event is sponsored by the Carmel, Ind.-based Tekton Ministries, which organizes pilgrimages around the world and serves as the public relations and marketing arm of the Franciscan Foundation for the Holy Land, which operates holy sites in the region.

Tickets are a suggested $10 donation each to cover theater rental and a licensing fee.

Ticket purchase in advance is recommended. To do so, or for more information, log onto www.tektonministries.org/apparition-hill or call 317-574-4191.

If the event sells out, another viewing of Apparition Hill will be scheduled—check back on the Tekton Ministries website or call them for updates.
