Međugorje, (the name is of Slavic origin, and signifies a region between mountains) with the villages of Bijakovići, Vionica, Miletina and Šurmanci, forms a Roman Catholic parish where today about 5,000 inhabitants live. The parish is run by priests of the Herzegovinian Franciscan Province of the Assumption of Mary. Following claims of visions of the Virgin Mary, Međugorje became a place of worldwide pilgrimage (in the first 20 years, more than 20 million), and one of the biggest prayer centres in the world, comparable to Lourdes and Fátima.
