Story of Naju

In the small town of Naju located near the southwestern tip of the Korean peninsula, Our Lady began giving urgent messages and signs to Julia Kim. On June 30, 1985, Our Lady's statue owned by Julia began weeping tears, and on October 19, 1986 it began weeping tears of blood. Until January 14, 1992, the statue wept for a total of exactly 700 days. The tears of blood were tested and found to be human blood. Now the statue has been giving fragrant oil. Julia has been given a "garment of fragrance". So, Julia is surrounded by the sweet fragrance of roses. Also, when she kisses a rosary or simply holds it in her hands for a few seconds, it becomes fragrant.

Julia also often undergoes severe pains for the conversion of others and in reparation for abortions and other sins in the world. Several times, she received the Stigmata while suffering the pains of Crucifixion. She has been allowed to experience Eucharistic miracles. Many people, including priests witnessed that the Sacred Host Julia received was turning light brown first and then being covered with blood. Many people began firmly believing in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist because of these miracles.

The Blessed Mother's purpose in Naju is to awaken us, with her messages, from our spiritual complacency and insensitiveness so that we may truly practice the teachings in the Gospels and revitalize our traditional Catholic faith and devotion. She urges us to begin living a life of prayers, humility and love so that the devil's grip over our world may be broken and a new era of peace and love under the reign of Christ may begin. She is asking us to become little children of hers, completely consecrated to her Immaculate Heart. She has invited everyone to offer fervent prayers (especially the Holy Rosary) and sacrifices and to pray for and support the Holy Father, bishops and priests, as they are ministers of Christ.


Messages of Naju

July 18, 1985 I am sad. Many people still have doubts even after they see my bloody sweat and tears and say that these may be just plain drops of water. They do not believe. I ask you to spread the truth.

Do you know how the Heart of my Son Jesus is being torn apart? His Heart is being torn apart continuously, as human sins multiply and disorder spreads. Make reparations.

Spread the fragrance of roses all over the world for the prevention of wars and for the conversion of sinners. This is truly a weapon.

My Heart is broken because of the unlimited birth control. Prevent abortions and pray for those who carry out abortions.

Spread the fire of love that is flaming up in my Heart. The fire of love...

I want you to be happy. A husband and a wife are united so that they may lead a happy life. But my Son becomes broken-hearted when they hate each other and are unable to forgive each other. You must love one another. Who are your closest neighbors? How can you say that you love God and love me when you cannot even love those in your family? Sanctify your family through love and harmony. This is what my Son Jesus thirsts for.

Achieve unity among those who do my work. For this, you will need many sacrifices. Those who are working for me and for Jesus lack unity and are dispersed. As the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are One, you must become one in humility and be a good example to others.

August 11, 1985 Praise the Lord

Do not weep for my tears, but look at and console my Son Jesus who wears a crown of thorns and sheds blood and sweat.

Pray for priests without ceasing. They are now like a light before wind. They are being subjected to temptations. The windows of rectories are left open. Through the open windows, three devils (of pride, materialism and lust) are peeking in. Close the windows of rectories.

Become sacrificial offerings for priests. I am helping them, too. So, support them to the end, because they are my most precious and beloved sons.

September 15, 1986 - Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows - The path that leads to my Son Jesus is a narrow and difficult one of the cross. The human race can be saved by this path, but most do not come near it.

Combine your forces. Pray without ceasing for the souls that are not turning away from the road that leads to their perdition.

October 19, 1986 The statue of Mary shed its first tears of blood As the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are One, you must all become one, too, and console me.

October 20, 1986 This world is decaying with sins. Even with the Sacred Blood of my Son Jesus, it is difficult to appease the just anger of God the Father. let me borrow your body and your mouth.

I am shivering with cold. Who can comfort me? Who can console my Heart that is shaking with cold? Now, you are not praying to me, but I am imploring you. Pray for priests, my sons. They continue to be tempted. To protect them, you need to give clothing, food and water to those people whose souls are naked, hungry and thirsty. Through these souls, the devils are becoming stronger and more violent. To prevent them, you must offer prayers combined with sacrifices and self-denial, and also offer up poverty and penance gracefully.

Come back to my Immaculate Heart... I called you today for a special purpose. Renounce your ego and abandon selfishness. I will be your shield. Even the arrows of fire thrown by the devils will not harm you. Pray much without worrying. I want you to stand on my side and become courageous guides in saving this world permeated with evil.

October 21, 1986 My daughter, my beloved daughter! Listen to my words well. I have implored with tears at many places in the world. It has been very difficult to find souls who are consecrated to converting sinners by participating in sufferings with me for the sake of my Son Jesus and me.

But you have promised martyrdom. Therefore, I ask you to find such souls for me. I want you (plural) to offer your pains combined with more prayers, sacrifices, penance, poverty and self-denial.

The sins in the world are so numerous that God the Father's just anger has reached an extremely high level.

My daughter! I will call the religious. Through them, I will blow my spirit into those of my children who do not know me and let the light shine form them like a river. But how can they understand my words, if they keep their hearts closed?

My daughter! Help me. Quench my burning thirst.

October 22, 1986 Now, my children! Receive pliers from me and hand over the hammers that you have been holing in your hands until now. Pull out all the nails with the pliers. Also, keep these weapons well. the devils' job is to take the pliers away from you and give back the hammers. They constantly keep an eye on you, so be alert and on your guard. the shields and weapons that you can use against them are prayers and the arrows of love. Before love, all the devils will capitulate.

October 23, 1986 It is time to consecrate yourselves to me. Why do you hesitate again and again? I am asking you for this together with my Son Jesus because of the pains in Our Hearts caused by many who do not live a consecrated life.

Also consecrate the Blue Army. Offer more rosaries and sacrifices for world peace and human salvation.

Sacrifices are truly the beautiful fruits of mortification, penance, poverty and self-denial. Always work as a very little person with obedience. Then, I will be with you always.

October 24, 1986 You promised that you would accept sufferings. Why are you shaking? What are you afraid of? Now, stand up and, with courage, entrust your heart to my Immaculate Heart.

Because I love you, my Son Jesus and I called you, when your body was about to cease functioning, to deliver you from many sins. You did not take the initiative to entrust yourself to me, but I called you so that you could entrust yourself to me - as an apostle of my Immaculate Heart. This is only the beginning. There will be many sufferings. But do not be discouraged. Entrust everything - without exception - to my Immaculate Heart. Entrust even all your sins to me.

Together with those brothers and sisters whom I united with you spiritually, pray, do penance and sacrifices and approach me walking the way of a little person with humility. My spirit is flowing in you and in them. So, work together. Also tell my beloved priests that the way of the martyrs is a narrow and difficult one and is like a sailboat in the middle of a violent storm. But tell them that I will sustain them and be with them always.

October 29, 1986 Practice obedience. Obey your superiors and also those who are of a lower status than you. As I obeyed all, you should do the same. I feel so anxious, but will give you energy. So, do not cry but stand up courageously. What can we do, if people refuse to accept our love? Even God cannot force them. Do not expect too much too soon. Be patient and wait for the good time.

October 31, 1986 Emphasize to everyone the importance of the Holy Eucharist. By the Holy Eucharist, the Lord will be in you. He will live in you and stay there always, if you open your heart and receive Him with a clean heart. How can the Lord enter you, if you do not have a clean heart or keep the door closed?

November 5, 1986 Is there anyone who can lower me from the Cross? Moment after moment, there are more people who crucify me. I am suffering on the Cross together with my Son Jesus.

Help me. I cannot appease God the Father's anger without your help. Can you participate in my sufferings?

Because of birth control and abortions, I feel extreme pains in my womb. Little lives are roaming about in limbo after having been deprived of their human dignity and treated only as a lump of bloody flesh - which was a consequence of the human cruelty, desecration and failure to recognize the dignity of human life. Pray and soothe their wounds and offer atonements for the sins commited at night.

I will dwell in you, if you renounce yourselves and come to me. Unite with one another in love. If you do, Satan will retreat. Become apostles of my Immaculate Heart. Console me by doing so.

February 13, 1987 Renounce yourself. Do not worry. I know what is in your mind. Entrust everything to me and rely on me.

My daughter who is most pleasing to my Heart! I feel sorrow when you suffer. When you feel pain, I do, too; when you go through agonies, I agonize, too; and when you are sad, I am sad, too. But the pains, sorrows and agonies in this world will turn into happiness in the next world, because the happiness of this world is not the happiness of the next world. That is why you must endure the hardships well. Then, you will enjoy happiness in the next world with me.

Therefore, my sons and daughters, become persons smashed and trampled by all people of this world and offer even these matters as penance. Then, you will come to me as humble persons, as little persons.... Receive the light from my Immaculate Heart. Thus, become apostles of my Immaculate Heart who shine the light upon all the sick souls.

Achieve unity by loving one another. I want you to trust each other, be respectful and faithful to each other, and fulfill your duties. My beloved children! I trust you and will abide in you.

February 25, 1987 My beloved daughter! When you come to me by walking on the path of a little and poor person, which is a narrow and difficult path, a painful and lonesome path, and a dangerous, thorny path, I will hold your hands. So, come to me. You will receive heavenly consolations. Come to me by becoming a lowlier and lowlier person. I am preparing a laurel crown for you.

Now, my daughter! Look at me. Receive the light of my burning Immaculate Heart and shine it upon all the people living in darkness. I will be with you. Who can say he or she is qualified? What is needed is a determination to live according to the Lord's Will and to make an effort to repent with tears before the Lord when mistakes are made.

April 21, 1987 Do you know how intensely my Immaculate Heart is burning to save even one more soul that is contaminated with sins and is weak?

April 23, 1987 My most beloved priests are now walking on a path of loneliness and painful cross. They are climbing Mount Calvary tired and suffering. They are walking on an alienated path of the cross, suffering many pains in their wounds. Help them. Pray for them so that they will not be infected by the world, but instead, be faithful to their vocation. They are my sons who deserve respect and love by all. Listen well and tell others. You must also become their comforters. This age is so evil and filled with errors that devils are employing all means to destroy priests. They know that they gain more by ruining one priest than destroying one thousand or even ten thousand lay people.

June 14, 1987 Change your life further - giving up all your selfish attachments. Change your value system. Live a life of conversion. Convert every moment conversing with Jesus. Conversion does not just mean repenting sins. It means trying to live the life that God wants you to live. Abandon the worldly life and live a life based on the Gospels. Live like a lily. As the higher-grade protein produces a more foul odor, the shiny things of the world entail a greater darkness. Let's die again and imitate Christ.

June 29, 1987 I love you despite your weaknesses. I want you to love me wholeheartedly. When you accept my words, my messages will renew and change your souls.

July 15, 1987 My heart is broken because of the unlimited birth control. Pray for the prevention of abortions and for those who carry out abortions.

January 1, 1988 As I told you before, the rosary defeats devils.

January 10, 1988 However many good works you may have accumulated, they will collapse one after another if you neglect little things and speak ill of others. Be slow in opening your mouth and control your tongue wisely. When you feel like criticizing others, cover them with love. This will be a good work, too. Be holy in your words and deeds. Practice humility. This will give me a special, precious joy. Never try to become higher than other. Your penance, kindness, sacrifices, and reparations will become fragrant oil for my wounds.

January 30, 1988 If you truly love me and love your neighbors, then, you are loving Jesus and will be appeasing the just anger of God the Father. Do not refuse the cross given to you. I will purify you by placing you in the furnace of my love and melting your impurities.

February 4, 1988 As my messages are founded on love, mercy will flow into any soul who repents and practices the messages.

July 29, 1988 People are walking on the road toward hell, because they commit cruel murders and yet do not know they are murderers. These little lives are deprived of their human dignity and receive terrible punishment that their parents deserve. Aren't these punishment too cruel for them? I am overcome with sorrows, because these innocent lives, precious lives given by God, are cruelly trampled, brutally kneaded, crushed, torn, and killed by ignorant and indifferent parents.

November 6, 1988 Because people are not entrusting everything to my Immaculate Heart, they fall into devils' temptations.

January 8, 1989 You must meet your neighbors, as you would meet Jesus - with true love and a prayerful mind. Tell everyone that I give my love to all my children. Superficial prayers, visitations out of habit, service without heart, lukewarm Legio Marie activities, and so on ... all of these must be revitalized. All of your sufferings make you participate in the Passion of Jesus and, together with mine, are being offered for the conversion of sinners. You must not ignore the wrath of God. But the Lord does not wish that you avoid sins for fear of punishments. What He wants is love. I pray and suffer pains constantly for the children who have fallen into evil habits and corruption so that fire may not fall upon the earth from heaven.

January 15, 1989 Pray much that the Church, families and the society may become united as one, as the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are One.

August 26, 1989 A huge battle has begun already. Since it is a spiritual war, arm yourselves with me by entrusting everything to my Immaculate Heart. Also practice the messages of my love. Then, you will be able to escape from the terrible chastisement that is approaching the human race and the Church. The statue of Mary in Naju was seen to weep on that same day.

August 29, 1989 The vicious devils are even penetrating the inside of the Church causing division, confusion and darkness. How serious the harms to the sheep will be! Therefore, pray, make sacrifices and do penance with a greater love in this time of darkness.

November 26, 1989 Only through numerous sacrifices, my messages of love will spread to the whole world and guide all the people and peace will be achieved.

January 29, 1991 Daughter! My daughter who entrusts everything to me even in the midst of sufferings! I want you to follow me with a greater love and without agonizing too much over your inadequacy. This world is decaying with corruption and degradation. The human race is facing a crisis under black clouds and the sins are spreading like a horrible cancer. The storm is already becoming violent. This world is exposed to a grave danger, as the storm rages on. How would the Heavenly Mother feel in her mind, as she watches all this? Follow me with courage even when faced with serious tribulations and threats of violence, wars and destructions. There isn't much time left before the incredible punishments will fall even upon those countries which have been protected and intensely cherished so far. Many people are inordinately rejecting God and the iniquities and corruptions are increasing every day, causing more violence and frequent wars. The darkness is ever infiltrating the Church in cold-hearted and elaborate ways. Thus, the last hour of bleeding for purification is waiting for you. If you do not live according to the Words of Truth, you will soon suffer calamities and will surely regret. What is the use of regretting after the justice of God is realized? I am imploring like this to my children, who have been called, as the time permitted (for the human conversion) is almost over. Be awake and pray without procrastinating. Also become simple as a child. Nobody knows the exact date and hour of the Lord's coming again to us. Preparations are in progress to defeat His enemies, destroy them and establish His Kingdom on this earth. He will come to you on clouds displaying His power to build His glorious Kingdom. Prepare to greet Him with trust, love and faith. He is coming to you through me, His Mother. As He was sent to you by God the Father through my virgin body, Jesus will be using my Immaculate heart in returning to you as the King. Therefore, all the children of the world! Open your mind widely without delay and return to me. Rekindle the fire in your heart that has been extinguished, achieve a unity among all and practice my messages of love. Spread the messages all over the world fervently and filled with hope.

April 21, 1991 Make frequent confessions to receive the Lord more worthily and open your mind widely, keep it clean and organized, and love one another so that it will become a palace and a tabernacle where the Lord can dwell. Tell all the children of the world. I want all of you to wear the scapular with the intention of being with me; pray the rosary more fervently with all your body and mind and with love; live a completely consecrated life of prayers, sacrifices, and reparations; renew your life with the spirit of self-renunciation and poverty, and , thus, repel the violence of the devil.

May 8, 1991 I rejoice more over a heart filled with love and devotion than over flowers or deeds. Even the smallest thing can become a great good work, if it is done with love. Follow the wishes of this Mother without a doubt who wants to perform miracles of love by using you as an instrument, despite your unworthiness.

August 27, 1991 When you renounce everything and follow me completely, my role as your true Mother and the Lord's Helper in saving the world (= the Co-Redemptrix) will soon be manifested clearly.

September 17, 1991 Cry out. The victory of my Immaculate Heart is close at hand. You will soon see the day when I will, through you who are unworthy, convert the children who do not know me, open the eyes of the people who do not believe, and silence those who criticize.

October 19, 1991 Soon it will become the Age of the Apostles of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and my Immaculate Heart. At that time, there will be many who will regret and wail. Therefore, make haste. Those who follow the Lord carrying the cross, spread and practice the Gospels and accept the messages of my burning love will be saved and receive and enjoy the eternal life.

November 26, 1991 While the world is rushing into moral decays, all the children of the world will soon know that I am the Mediatrix of all Graces.

May 31, 1992 If you unite with each other in love and follow me, you will become a large net of love. The Lord will use this net to catch people and to accomplish salvation.

January 23, 1993 How numerous are the false prophets these days! They have fallen into the devil's temptations and are spreading all kinds of untrue information as messages from me. That way, they are confusing my children and promoting disorder in order to neutralize and dilute my messages. This causes much pain to me.

February 6, 1993 If you continue observing the First Saturdays well and put into practice what I have requested of you, this Mother, who is the Mediatrix of All Graces, will acquire all the graces for you that you ask for, will give you a special protection and the grace needed for eternal salvation at the time of your death, take you to the Heavenly Harbor in the Mary's Ark of Salvation and offer you to the Lord.

February 18, 1993 The prayers, sacrifices and devotions offered for the conversion of sinners during the Holy Hours become reparations for their sins and sacrificial offerings to God's Justice. This will soften God the Father's just anger. For this reason, the Lord is pleased to accept the reparations and devotions offered during the Holy hours.

April 8, 1993 I am squeezing all of myself to give you the fragrance and oil. The fragrance that I give to all is a gift from God. It means my presence, love and friendship for you.

June 27, 1993 I have manifested the images of the Holy Eucharist in various ways so that all my children may understand the importance of the Holy Eucharist. hurriedly become blazing flames of love, reparation and adoration toward the Lord Who is in the Blessed Sacrament. My Son Jesus gave Peter the keys of Heaven. Isn't the Pope the successor of Peter? Pray and offer sacrifices for the Pope. Support and protect him. As the Vicar of My Son Jesus, he is carrying a heavy cross. He has been consecrated to me, loves me so much and accepts me so well ... He already understands my words that I am giving to all with tears and tears of blood in Korea. To the Pope, who is my son, whom I live without limit and whom I can put in my eyes without hurting them, I will give a special love and sign.

January 21, 1994 Courageously and hurriedly spread my messages of love to the whole world so that all my children may respond to the words that I give them shedding tears and tears of blood and that they may repent. If you accept my words without reservation and follow Jesus Christ in this world that is becoming more and more miserable, you will experience my presence filled with motherly love in this age of dangerous trials; this world will become purified resulting in the softening of God's just anger; the victory of my Immaculate Heart will certainly be achieved bringing the Lord's Kingdom into this world; and you, who are working for me, will surely stand by my side. Even if you suffer from persecutions and pains that are beyond imagination, I will help you at your side by amazing methods and will carry through my plan to the end and accomplish it. The devil will afflict you with violent and persistent attacks, but I am protecting you at your side from the devil, in a way invisible to you, in order to accomplish my plan. I will protect you; so stay awake. When you confront the devil and lead many souls to my Immaculate Heart, you are leading them to my Son Jesus. This will become the most beautiful floral crown of glory in my Immaculate Heart.

February 3, 1994 As I told you before, the natural order is now being disturbed and abnormalities are occurring frequently: floods, fires, famines, earthquakes, droughts, tidal waves, traffic accidents, large-scale destructions, many kinds of environmental disasters, and unusual weather. Also, many people are dying because of wars, incurable illnesses and contagious diseases. When snow falls and cold wind blows, you know winter is beginning. When new buds sprout, you know it is becoming spring. Then, why do you not understand that these disasters are SIGNS of the beginning of the GREAT CHASTISEMENT? Through these many SIGNS, you should know that the time of the GREAT CHASTISEMENT is near. Those who suffer most in this world are the innocent babies who are being killed in their mothers' wombs. Why should there be such cruel, inhuman evils? My beloved sons and daughters! Do not bring about the chastisement of darkness, fire and blood upon you. People were eating, drinking and marrying until the very day Noah was entering the Ark. They were all swept away by the flood. If you do not listen to my voice with which I implore you so ardently, you will be putting yourselves in the same situation. Freemasonry is leading this cruel world to destruction and, by spreading heresies in the Church causing division and confusion, is promoting a major apostasy in the Church.

February 2, 1995 Feast of the Presentation Julia was in the midst of praying: 'Mother! You told us before, "I will help you with my power that can crush the serpent." Please help this endangered world to be saved with your power that can crush the serpent...' At that moment, the Blessed Mother spoke from her statue: My beloved daughter! This is the day when I presented my Son Jesus to God the Father and also the day when I was foretold by Simeon that I would experience the pain of my heart being pierced with a sharp sword. As Simeon predicted, I have received numerous pains from my beloved children, but, at the same time, I am being comforted by the souls like you who are participating in my sufferings.

My daughter who is so exhausted! With renewed courage and energy, march ahead bravely. There is no time to waste by hesitating. Do not worry even when you hear all kinds of insults. Know that all the insults that you hear are actually insults to me and offer them up well. So many of the children are far away from my Son Jesus and from me, are being swept away by storms and are placing themselves in the middle of this enormous danger. They have caused a great disorder in the interpretation of the doctrines, in the liturgy and in the Church laws. Even many shepherds have fallen into that disorder and are walking along the way to hell. The gate of hell is wide open to receive them.

I have already told you again and again what the remedies are against the many disasters that are striking many places in the world...

The Blessed Mother continued with a voice filled with sorrows and almost crying.

As I told you before, daughter, fire can fall from the sky upon the souls who are blind and deaf and are wandering without knowning the way (which I wish to prevent). But there are not enough little souls yet who can soften the just anger of God. Therefore, help me by moving to the place which I have prepared (= the mountain where the new basilica will be built) holding hands with the priests whom I have chosen with love. Remember that, with a great thirst and anxiousness, I am inviting all the children in the world to come aboard my Ark of Salvation so that I can take them (to Heaven). And prepare a most joyful place with the pure love from my Immaculate Heart. Hurriedly spread my messages of love to my children who do not know the way to Heaven and, by doing so, comply with the wish of this Mother who wants to save them from danger.

All my beloved children in the world! My messages of love will be the break that suppresses disorder. All the children in the world must hurriedly understand my messages of love and accept them. If the children in the world do not follow the Will of God and do not accept my words, God will respond with a severity and they will not be able to escape from the fire of justice. A safe tomorrow cannot be promised. But if you comply with the wish of this Mother who wants to carry out the Plan of Love and Salvation that God of the Most Holy Trinity has entrusted to me and answer with an "Amen", the blazing flames of the Holy Spirit will renew this world and make it shine and you will be saved in that light.
