Pope Francis is expected to name a special administrator for Me\u0111ugorje.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Pope Francis will reportedly soon appoint a special administrator of the Holy See for Me\u0111ugorje. The unofficial information has not yet been confirmed, but it is assumed that the Vatican could take over in the next few months. It is assumed that this would mean that Me\u0111ugorje would get a status of a shrine which would be managed by the Pope’s administrator, while the parish of Me\u0111ugorje and pastoral activities would remain in the hands of the Franciscans of the Herzegovinian Franciscan Province, reports Ve\u010dernji List<\/em><\/span><\/a><\/span> on July 3, 2016.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

It would seem that the decision would be a win-win situation for everybody. Herzegovinian friars would lose a part of their autonomy in decision-making, but they will no longer have to deal with the local bishop because the Vatican would take over all responsibilities. Me\u0111ugorje would become \u201cextraterritorial\u201d in a way, which would mean the end of 35 years of problems in relations between local bishops and the Me\u0111ugorje phenomenon. On the other hand, the Bishop of Mostar-Duvno Ratko Peri\u0107 can also be satisfied, because the authority of the Vatican would guarantee that there would be no deviations in Me\u0111ugorje.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
