๐Sharing Graces from Our Lady of Naju๐
Testimony of John:
Seventeen years ago, I watched the video of Mama Julia's pains due to the crown-of-thorns and received the grace of repentance. At the 38th anniversary of the Weeping of Our Lady of Naju, I witnessed the miracle of the sun, which changed into the form of the Eucharist and spun in circles.
During the Holy Triduum in Naju in 2024, I witnessed Mama Juliaโs crown-of-thorns suffering, and I personally saw the Precious Blood descending. Through this, I came to realize Mama Juliaโs profound love. A foreign sister was healed of breast cancer through the miraculous water of Naju I sent to her.ย
I believe that the Archdiocese of Gwangjuโs denial of the Eucharistic miracle creates a barrier between the faithful and the Catholic Church. As far as I understand, the Vaticanโs judgment regarding Naju is not a condemnation, but a reservation.
Testimony of Catherine:
I have visited many Marian shrines in Europe, but Naju became my final destination. When I was suffering physically and spiritually due to colon cancer and financial difficulties, I visited Naju without hope, yet I returned filled with hope.
During the meeting, I felt that Mama Juliaโs embrace was like the embrace of the Blessed Mother. The Five Spiritualities completely transformed my entire life. I gained strength from Mamaโs words that we should never give up, but always begin anew.
I shared the miraculous water of Naju with my patients, and many healings took place. I enshrined the Holy Image of Jesus of Mercy in Glory, and I was shown that Jesus is truly living.
While praying the Rosary for Israel and Hamas, I saw the Sacred Heart of Jesus shining with a radiant light, and His face was filled with a gentle smile in the Holy Image of Jesus of Mercy in Glory. During an overseas leadersโ retreat, I was deeply moved as I reflected on Juliaโs life journey, and I resolved to spread the Messages of Love and the Five Spiritualities to the world.ย
Testimony of Stephen:
My younger brother received prayers from Mama Julia and was healed of the illness he had been suffering from. My younger sister was once in critical condition after drinking herbicide, but she was healed after being given the miraculous water.
In the last Holy Triduum, I was preparing to go abroad to spread the message of Naju. Through Mama Juliaโs prayers, I received strength, and the mission was successfully completed. As a result, many pilgrims decided to visit Naju for the 40th anniversary of the Weeping Tears of Blood, and I felt that the Blessed Mother herself is truly at work.
From the statue of the Blessed Mother given by Mama Julia, tears of blood flowed, and through this, I came to feel that I must console Our Lady amidst persecutions and difficulties.
My wife was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer that had spread to her bones, and she was told she had only two months to live. She even considered euthanasia, but she lived for five years and four months.
I felt that the Lord entrusted me with the mission to spread Naju to the whole world, so I continue to share it wherever I go. Even amid trials and persecutions, and though I face insults, I continue to receive strength.
While on a flight to Taiwan, I experienced severe abdominal pain, but when I offered it up while thinking of Mama Juliaโs suffering, and moved forward toward my mission, the pain disappeared. When I touched the feet of Jesus on Calvary, I was shown the image of Jesus who was alive with blood flowing, which made me realize that I must never forget the sufferings of Jesus, the Blessed Mother, and Mama Julia.
Even in the midst of this persecution, I will continue my mission, offering everything for the glory of the Lord.
Testimony of Serena:
I used to say that there was no part of my body that did not hurtโI was like a walking hospital. After reading the Book of the Messages of Love, I repented and came to Naju, the place of grace.
While following Mama Julia, who was delivering the messages, I went to Ruteng, Indonesia. As I was coming down a steep slope, I slipped and fell headfirst into a drainage ditch, becoming covered in blood. The container used to support my head filled with blood and overflowed. A local volunteer took me to the hospital, where, without anesthesia, my wound was stitched as if sewing or cutting with a sawโ27 stitches in total. Yet, I felt no pain at all. I thought, โAh, Mama Julia is suffering in my place.โ In fact, at that very time, Mama Julia was offering immense suffering.
Mama Julia once delivered a message before a crowd of 300,000 people, and I personally witnessed the mute speaking, the blind seeing, the deaf hearing, and the lame walking.
When I returned to Korea and visited a hospital, I was told that the stitched area was very uneven and would require plastic surgery, because it should have needed over 100 stitches, but only 27 had been done. However, when the stitches were removed, the previously uneven area became smooth and straight. The doctor said this itself was a miracle.
Later, when my leg was broken and I went to the hospital, I was told I would need to wait a week before getting a cast, so I returned home. But through Mama Juliaโs prayers, to which I responded โAmen,โ I was healed and was able to throw away my crutches.
I also received the Thick Motherโs Milk on the guide ribbon, and I realized that in Naju, each person receives the grace they need in different ways. Now, I am living very well in good health.
Testimony of Stella:
I thought I should help with the kitchen work, so I prepared bellflower roots. My body, already tired from beekeeping work, became even more exhausted after volunteering, and I felt aching pain all over.
During the time of meeting, when Mama Julia gently tapped my shoulder, all the pain completely disappeared. Since then, even though I continue the demanding beekeeping work, I have been completely fine.
As I consistently practiced the Five Spiritualities, my husband changed. When a priest criticized Naju, my husband asked him whether he had personally seen it, and the priest could not respond. Now, my husband even asks to pray the Rosary together. This is truly a great change.
When we practice the Five Spiritualities, graces come a hundredfold!!!

Despite offering her sufferings in reparation for abortion and impurity, Julia Kim came out with a radiant smile to extend her Easter greetings.
Mama Julia said that the sufferings she receives are hopeful sufferings, even joyful sufferings. When she first offered up her sufferings, the Lord showed her the state of His children in this world. Although they appeared to be living well outwardly, their hearts were filled with sinful habits, wounding the Hearts of the Lord and the Blessed Mother. Seeing this, she wept continuously.
Mama Julia has been offering the sufferings she receives in order to mend the torn Hearts of the Lord and the Blessed Mother, and also for the clergy of the Archdiocese of Gwangju.
If we make an effort, Jesus will be with us. He sees our efforts and responds accordingly. When we forgive, we ourselves become joyful. Let us offer everything graciously through the Five Spiritualities, considering every situation as having received love through Semchigo.
Even if we have not done so until now, we can begin anew. If we practice the Five Spiritualities, we can love anyone. Then, even here on earth, it becomes heaven, and on the last day, we will also enter Heaven.
We had a time of meeting with Mama Julia. She embraced each and every person who attended the prayer meeting, giving kisses where needed and praying for them. Our hearts were filled with joy, and we received new strength.
Thus, the Holy Triduum prayer meeting came to an end. Amen. Alleluia. The Lord Jesus is truly risen. Happy Easter! Thank you! God bless you abundantly!!!๐๐ป๐
