Message on February 4, 1988
Since the night before, the statue of the Blessed Mother, which had been weeping, had moved forward and was facing the door. Father Spies came to Naju to meet the Archbishop of Gwangju. While Fr. Spies was wearing vestments to celebrate Mass, he thought, “Only if the Blessed Mother wished, she could go back to her original place by herself and participate in the Mass more directly.
But should I move her back to her original place? Or should I place her on the altar in front of me so that she can see the people who are gathered?” Still thinking, Fr. Spies began the Mass. At this time, the Blessed Mother gave an answer to me, who was unworthy but was participating in the Mass sitting on the floor because of the pains.
THE BLESSED MOTHER: Julia! Tell Fr. Spies. I can go back to my original place by myself. But I prefer to be placed there by the priest. I do not just mean the original place for my statue but the original place I deserve as the Mother of the Church.
I should be respected by all, but I am being despised, abandoned, carelessly thrown away, recklessly lifted and put down in their own way, and disregarded. I feel much sadness in my Heart. Help me quickly.
I conveyed the message to Fr. Spies through Rufino Park as I could not move myself. However, when Fr. Spies heard the message, he asked me to help move the statue back to its original place.
I stepped toward the altar despite pain. When I stretched my hands to assist the priest, I almost screamed, because my two hands were punctured causing extreme pain. Blood was flowing out from the middle of both palms.
THE BLESSED MOTHER: Daughter! You must help me in the rear by offering pains.
Julia: Yes, Mother. I will follow your will.
At the moment when the Mass was ending and Fr. Spies was giving the blessing, I fell down and entered a state of ecstasy. The Blessed Mother showed me many children walking toward hell because they did not have love.
THE BLESSED MOTHER: Daughter, look. I have chosen numerous souls with love, but they have been giving great pain to my Son Jesus by committing insult by giving priority to themselves and perpetrating the rudeness of deserting and betraying my messages. Thus, even at this time, Jesus continues suffering on the Cross, because they continue to scourge Him cruelly and despise and insult Him.
My daughter! The poor souls who committed sins… My poor children who are reaching ruin because of their hypocrisy… The souls who are in the state of sin… My Son Jesus paid a dear price to save them, but they are living without gratitude and in indifference.
Therefore, I want you, without doubt, to follow my will to guide many souls to the way of salvation by more graciously offering up your sufferings. Also, I want you to believe that when you suffer much, more joy accumulates in Heaven.
As my messages are founded on love, mercy will overflow in any soul who repents and practices the messages. Daughter! I am comforted by Fr. Spies, who is a simple and little soul. I rejoice, because he offers his fidelity and love fervently. My little daughter! My daughter who has to suffer pains! Will you participate in the Lord's Passion so that all souls may return to the Lord’s bosom?
Julia: Yes, Mother.
THE BLESSED MOTHER: Receive these pains for the Pope, cardinals, all bishops and priests, and for the conversion of sinners.
Then, I received the pain of the crucifixion, the pain of the crown of thorns, and the pain of the Sacred Heart; each time people commit sins, the Sacred Heart is pierced by spears, arrows, and sharp swords. After about twenty-five minutes, Fr. Spies, filled with compassion for me, gave me a blessing, and my suffering ceased.
