Medjugorje () has been the site of reported apparitions of Our Lady of Medjugorje since June 24, 1981. This article describes the Catholic Church's discernment of the Marian apparitions. ==Background== When Herzegovina became part of the Austro-Hungarian empire, Pope Leo XIII took steps to establish dioceses (1881) and appoint local bishops. As part of re-establishing normal church structures, the bishops worked to transfer parishes administered by the Franciscans to diocesan clergy. The friars resisted, and in the 1940s, the two Franciscan provinces still held 63 of 79 parishes in the dioceses of Vrhbosna and Mostar. Resistance continued and in the 1970s, friars in Herzegovina formed an association of priests, which encouraged popular opposition to diocesan parish takeovers. A 1975 decree by Pope Paul VI, ''Romanis Pontificibus'', ordered that Franciscans withdraw from a majority of the parishes in the Diocese of Mostar-Duvno, retaining 30 and leaving 52 to the diocesan clergy. Resistance continued, and in the 1980s the Franciscan Province still held 40 parishes under the direction of 80 friars.〔(Vjekoslav Perica (2004). "The Apparitions in Herzegovina and the Yugoslav Crisis of the 1980s", ''Balkan Idols: Religion and Nationalism in Yugoslav States''. Oxford University Press. pp. 117–118 )〕 In June 24, 1981, six children in the town of Medjugorje, Yugoslavia (today, Bosnia-Herzegovina), said they had seen an to be apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary. As the alleged visions were said to be continuing, word spread and the village began to attract people making pilgrimages.
