The Miracles of Jesus’ Time Are Still Occurring in This Age!

A Promise Made to God Must Always Be Kept

Praise be to Jesus! Praise be to the Blessed Mother!

I have been praying quite a lot lately. If Naju Shrine is approved as “Nihil Obstat (Nothing Hinders)” as soon as possible and pilgrims are able to visit freely, then priests, religious brothers and sisters, and many faithful from around the world will come on pilgrimage to learn and practice the Five Spiritualities. This will bring about the Kingdom of God in this world.

Before the declaration was issued in 1998, I was invited to many places around the world, where I went to gatherings of 30,000, 50,000, 100,000, and even 300,000 people, and countless miracles occurred there.

Not only in Jesus’ time, but even in this era, dead people have been brought back to life in Naju, and those on the brink of death have also been revived. The mother-in-law of the sister from Yeong-gwang had received the Anointing of the Sick and was prepared for her final moments, but her breathing didn’t stop. After the First Saturday prayer meeting that day, I went to the 10 a.m. Sunday Mass, and afterward, I received a message from the sister asking me to pray for her mother-in-law’s passing. She said her husband was lying prostrate, crying out repeatedly, “Please take me with you as well.”

I went because they had been volunteering in Naju. Her mother-in-law’s entire body was as cold as ice, but she was still breathing. Before she passed away, the family asked the hospital to at least administer an albumin injection When they tried, the injection wouldn’t go in.

So, after she was discharged, they prepared for her final moments and even for the funeral. When I arrived, the large room was filled with local people, and all nine children were there. With the daughters-in-law and sons-in-law also seated, it was quite a crowd. They were all gathered around.

“Jesus, please save this old lady,” I found myself praying this. They responded, “What? She’s going to pass away as soon as her breathing stops. What on earth are you praying like that?” But I continued to pray for her to live. Then, suddenly, I found myself going around, praying for each of the family members.

The daughter-in-law looked at me strangely as she shared. She was thinking, “I asked her to pray for my mother-in-law’s peaceful passing, but now she’s praying for her to live, and then she’s praying for the whole family?” All nine siblings, along with their spouses, were sick. But in that moment, they were all healed.

After the prayer, the sister’s mother-in-law said, “Ho-ly Wa-ter!” Since her body had gone completely stiff, I placed holy water on her hand and gently guided it. After praying like that, I returned home.

The older sister of the lady had polio and had fallen in the bathroom, damaging the round bone in her knee, so she couldn’t walk. She already had polio, and hurting that round bone only made it worse. Upon my leaving, everyone came out to see me off. The sister with polio exclaimed, “Oh my! I am healed!”

After I left, the old lady said, "I'm hungry," and she ate a lot that evening. Then, she made a full recovery. One of her sons-in-law, who had severe pleurisy and had undergone surgery, was still bedridden. He traveled lying down in the car after hearing that she was about to pass away.

He was also healed. He drove to Gwangju, bought two meats, and the sister made traditional healthy stew. Her second sister-in-law had stomach issues and couldn't eat anything with red pepper powder. However, after that day, she was able to eat two squid in one evening without any problems. The father of the sister, whose gastroenteritis the hospital couldn't cure, also fully recovered and ate the spicy stew.

Not only in the time of Jesus, but also in this present age, the Lord grants grace as needed, whenever He deems it necessary. Just as in Jesus’ time, countless miracles have occurred in Naju, such that the blind have seen, the deaf heard, the mute spoken, the lame walked, and the paralyzed healed.

However, a priest from the diocese was assigned to Naju Parish and said referring to me, “The water of our parish had been clear before. Then, a loach showed up. As people have been applauding and feeding the loach so that it has become a huge serpent, making the whole water muddy.” He also said that if there is a mousehole, I must go in and pray there.

And he said, "Either move back to your hometown or move to Jeju Island!" Once, he told Julio to come out with me during the Sunday Mass and falsely testify, saying, "Everything is a lie, the messages are all lies, and everything has been fabricated."

He also told us to bring the statue of the Blessed Mother to the church, to close down the Blessed Mother’s House, and to shut down the Blessed Mother’s Mountain. From the very beginning, I wanted to enshrine the Blessed Mother’s statue in the parish. When Father Lazarus Lee was the parish priest in Naju, I asked him, “I am so unworthy. Please enshrine Her at the church.”

Then, Father Lazarus said, "Ah, I will," and said he would seek the bishop's approval. However, the bishop replied, "Since the apparition was given to an individual, tell her to keep the statue with her." So I kept it to myself. I hate to see others sin because of me. So, I asked again, and Father Lazarus went to the bishop twice to discuss it. The bishop then said, "Mama Mary appeared to the person; the statue must not be taken by us." So, I continued to keep the statue.

But at that time (when Fr. Song urged false testimony), I just couldn’t offer the statue of the Blessed Mother. Since he was completely calling it a lie, how could I hand over the Blessed Mother’s weeping statue? If they had told me to shut down the Blessed Mother’s Mountain or the Blessed Mother’s House, I could have done that. But how could I lie and say that Jesus and the Blessed Mother had been lying all this time? How could I call truth as falsehood? Then, he forbade me from coming to the church.

He said, “Set church membership dues.” So, I replied that I would make confession and set church membership dues, but nobody allowed me to have confession, nor set church dues. Then, the bishop asked, “Why aren’t you setting Church Membership Dues after confession as instructed?" I replied, “I’ve tried to do it and to have a confession, but Father hasn’t accepted me.”

But the priest said that if I confessed the apparition of Our Lady of Naju was all a lie, he would hear my confession and accept the offertory. How could I possibly say that the tears and tears of blood of Our Lady of Naju were all lies and fabricated in order to just go to church? I never intended to say this, but now the topic has come out.

Because of that, many people who received grace through their pilgrimage to Naju, including those healed of cancer and incurable diseases, were banned from going to Naju. And countless people of them died. There are people who received immense grace in Naju. Today, a sister came here. Many people who had traveled with her to Naju were healed of cancer.

One of them fell into a coma due to a brain hemorrhage and stayed in the hospital. During her coma, she saw Our Lady of Naju, who was weeping, coming and going. After 18 days, she woke up. At that time, they said, "The surgery can be done," but it would cost several tens of millions of won. She had no money for the surgery and said she was just going to die. A Naju pilgrim told her, "Then run away quickly." She asked, "Where should I go?" and they said, "To the Blessed Mother's House in Naju!" She came here and was healed immediately that day.

And one sister's husband cheated on her, left, and ran away with another woman. After that, this sister believed that “The way to get revenge is by making money!” and made a lot of money. Then, after 18 years of being separated from her husband, she came on a pilgrimage to Naju. After hearing my words, including Our Lady’s Message “Families are sick. Sanctify your family,” the sister realized, “Ah, it’s my fault!” It’s important to have such realizations, dear ones!

The sister decided to go and see her husband. What happened when she went to see him? Mistresses may start out happy with a man, but when the man falls ill, they often abandon him. But when the sister went, she found that the other woman had run off, and her husband was ill lying bedridden.

She asked him how much debt he had, planning to pay it off and bring him back. Back in the 1990s, 5 million Won was such a large amount. But he listed 5 million Won, 3 million Won, 2 million Won until she said, "Stop!" She then decided, "Oh, this isn’t right. I’ll pay it all back," and wrote everything down. She paid off all the debts, reducing them by half. The creditors were happy to receive even half, since they’d get nothing if he died. It was like receiving free money for them. This sister received many blessings during her pilgrimages here. There isn’t enough time to share them all now.

During her pilgrimage here, Maria Lee also came. Born with a hole in her heart, she was hospitalized at Busan Maryknoll Hospital. After receiving emergency baptism as Maria, she miraculously survived. Later, she had surgery and was diagnosed with bone marrow cancer, requiring five of her bones (ribs) to be removed. She received dozens of IV drips daily and took many medications, but couldn’t recover. The doctor even told her to go home. However, after coming to Naju, she was completely healed. Maria Lee has never forgotten Our Lady of Naju and continues to visit. She’s still living well and healthy.

However, those who came with them and were healed of cancer, including the person I mentioned earlier, as well as those who received graces in Naju promised to keep coming. Many stopped after the negative declaration was issued, and most of them passed away. When you make a promise before God, you must keep it.

The sister who reunited with her husband after 18 years came to Naju secretly, due to the so-called excommunication. She said she didn’t bring any money, and I replied, "What money do you need to bring? If you stay here, I’ll feed you and let you sleep." She asked if that was really okay, and I told her, "It’s alright."

Even her family who had believed in Naju prevented her from going. So, she came secretly, but the next day, she was gone. Then, the following day, she came back. “Yolk Land, Yolk House” in Busan, meaning a very expensive place. She brought the land and house documents to me, asking me to take them. I told her, "I will not accept that."

She then said, "If so, I can't stay here." I said, "You can stay here as long as you want without payment, but just don't give me that." I never received it. She felt sorry and left. Soon after, she passed away. These kinds of things happen countless times, so I am praying that they don't happen again.

On (September) 30th, Archbishop Bumbun passed away. I cried a lot during the funeral Mass. But on that day, I saw a rainbow like never before. The Lord has sent countless rainbows to Naju, but this was the first time. It wasn't just a single rainbow; it was a triple rainbow.

At first, a double rainbow appeared, then a triple rainbow. For an hour, the rainbow appeared vividly, disappeared, then appeared again, and disappeared, and reappeared once more. I was in my room when I heard, "A double rainbow has appeared!" I went to take a look. Initially, I thought it was a double rainbow. But when looking closely, I saw red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet, and another red. It repeated: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Then, faint red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Three rainbows were aligned together. This is the first time I had seen this.

Another set of three rainbows appeared—red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet. Then, another one rainbow appeared further away, making a total of seven. So I said, "Ah, this is 7! Victory!" A rainbow also appeared twice at the Blessed Mother’s Mountain.

Today, a rainbow appeared in the clouds at Mount Calvary. Recently, the Lord has been giving us many rainbows. He gave rainbows at the convent, on the ceiling of the Spirituality Office, and several times at the Chapel, large and vivid ones. He also gave rainbows in my room and bathroom. They have appeared regardless of time and light. (On 30th) I thought, "With so many rainbows, something good must be happening!"

It has been 17 years since Archbishop Bumbun began his pilgrimage to Naju. How childlike he was! Bishop of Ruteng came to Naju and was healed of his heart disease. After visiting, he was so delighted that he called Naju his second hometown. So he invited me to Ruteng diocese in March 2007. He even declared a three-day public holiday to hold the Marian conference in Ruteng. During the event, the blind saw, the deaf heard, the mute spoke, and many children with disabilities were healed. Archbishop Bumbun was present when I prayed, and that was our first meeting.

I visited again in June 2007, and once again, the blind, the deaf, and the mute were healed. Archbishop Bumbun was with us at that time as well, and he witnessed everything. He was so happy, saying that he was seeing miracles right before his eyes—miracles that he only read about in the Bible.

On August 15, 2007, Archbishop Bumbun came again and prayed including the Stations of the Cross. Since then, he had been coming to Naju for 17 years. When the PD Notebook aired, Bishop Briya passed away. The archdiocese used PD Notebook to spread false information. They claimed they went to Ruteng and met a nun, who was probably a fake nun. We have never seen the nun shown in the PD Notebook. If they had truly needed to investigate, they should have investigated the nun we met at that time.

The Bishop of Ruteng had said he would become the bishop of Naju and even recorded it himself. I was concerned that the bishop might fall for those lies, so I went to Bali to meet him. When a bishop passes away, all the other bishops attend. I prayed continuously at the place where Bishop Briya was laid to rest, offering up all kinds of unimaginable suffering (for his soul).

The following day, the soul of Bishop Briya appeared to me and said, "I opposed Naju and hindered the graces that many people should have received. I apologize. I am grateful that you came here and took on redemptive suffering for me." That evening, I went to the hotel where the Bishop of Ruteng was staying to meet him. But the Bishop of Ruteng wouldn’t meet me. That’s when Archbishop Bumbun came out. He came out and was very, very happy to see me.

I knew that Archbishop Bumbun was not the type of bishop to be swayed, so I didn’t mention anything about it. The Bishop of Ruteng said, "Let’s meet later," but he never came out. And then, he passed away.

Archbishop Bumbun told me at the time that he would leave the next day, which meant he wanted to meet me again. So, we went to the airport and met there, continuing our conversation. Even when it was time for him to go, I told him to head inside, but he didn’t want to go in. He became like a child who didn’t want to be separated from his mother. He continued refusing to leave, so we had to escort him inside. The plane waited for 30 minutes. The Lord made that happen. Would they have waited that long just for one bishop?

But as soon as the bishop boarded the plane, it took off. During his visit to Naju, he was so childlike! He didn’t come to Naju without facing opposition. And so, the bishop went to Heaven soon after. We should become little children like him.

These days, I cry out to God the Father in my prayers. Before, I would call upon Jesus of Mercy in Glory, Jesus of Mount Calvary, and the Blessed Mother. But now, I call on God the Father, asking Him to reveal all glory, that the Lord may receive glory, that the Blessed Mother may be consoled, and that our gratitude may not dry up. May God alone receive all praise, thanks, and glory, and be adored by us, who are unworthy. This is how I cry out to God the Father, praying that no one suffers or dies because they cannot come to the Naju Shrine!

Before the negative declaration, I was invited many times to places in Korea. As a result, incredible miracles of love occurred. One day, I was invited to a parish in Incheon. The church was very large, but it was completely packed, with no space for anyone to enter. A couple came, but they couldn't get in, so they thought, "Ah, let's just go!" But then they said, "So many people have gathered here to listen to the Word; isn't it a waste to come all this way and leave?" They decided to listen from outside, and during the break, they quickly squeezed their way in and ended up sitting in the front.

They said, while I was speaking, the Blessed Mother spoke exactly as I did through her statue. When I stopped, She stopped, and when I closed my mouth, She closed Hers as well. This happened in the Philippines, the United States, and in many other places around the world. I am not doing anything by myself; I am indeed just an unworthy sinner. For the Lord only uses me briefly as an instrument to reveal His glory, please do not thank me. All thanks and glory should be directed to God, the Lord, and the Blessed Mother.

If the Gwangju Archdiocese had granted approval for Naju at that time, instead of issuing a negative declaration, the world would have been transformed. At that time, the Archbishop of Gwangju said, "In Naju, the Tears, even the Tears of Blood, are all real. Since so many clergy, so many religious brothers and sisters, and so many people have witnessed them, they are the true. I believe in everything in Naju, including the Tears and the Tears of Blood. Since there are no errors in the Messages, I believe in the Messages as well. From now on, I will only look for the fruits."

However, due to the slander of a sister, the archbishop did not grant approval. With just little reflection, it's clear that the slander was a lie. This is what has brought us the present. It is truly heartbreaking. Whenever good things happen, the devil always causes much trouble. Lately, I have been in a desperate battle with the devil.

I had a back surgery in Seoul in 2015. They say that people who have the same surgery as me usually get discharged in just a week. However, I offered up immense suffering in reparation for abortion, and was hospitalized for a month. It was extremely difficult, and even after a month, I hadn’t recovered. I had to go back for another surgery and continued to visit the hospital. On one occasion, when I needed to go to the hospital in Seoul for my back, my caregiver Sister saw it online and arranged a room for us.

When we arrived, it was a Kimchi Guest House, a place where people with little money could sleep. There was only one bathroom, and in the shower room, there was just a faucet with the curtains all torn. Many people had to share that one bathroom. The volunteer who came with me said to her, “How come you booked a place like this.” I said, “It’s okay, it’s okay. We need to do penance and make sacrifices, so it’s fine.” At that moment, I offered it all up so joyfully. "Let’s sleep here." It was a bunk bed, and I said, "As long as it doesn’t make noise, it’s fine." The room was cheap, and I was on the bottom bunk. Every time the Sister on the top bunk moved, it creaked, yet how could I feel so happy?

It’s the Five Spiritualities that make us happy. Even though I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t shower, and the bathroom was strange, I practiced Semchigo as if it were good. How wonderful are the Five Spiritualities! How beautiful are the Prayers of Life! Let us offer up such wonderful prayers of life, continually filling the abyss between the greatness of Jesus and our lowliness, every moment. It was the Five Spiritualities that made me very happy. I went to Seoul because of my back pain, and yet there were even stairs to climb.

When a volunteer scolded my caregiver, "How can Mama stay at the house?" I said, "No, it's okay. With each step, we can practice Semchigo as if walking the same path Jesus took up Golgotha hill, carrying His Cross together with Him." They asked how I could go with back pain, and I said, "Well, because of the back pain, it becomes more of a sacrifice and penance." And as I continued, I was so, so happy. Let us live joyfully by practicing the Five Spiritualities in everything we do. Life in this world is not easy, but when we offer it up graciously through the Five Spiritualities, how much comfort will the Lord and the Blessed Mother must receive!

In one room, there were four beds (two bunk beds), and I asked, "Aren't you all happy?" and they replied, "Yes, maybe..." I then asked, "Because we offer it up graciously, aren't you very happy?" and they said, "Yes, maybe..." A volunteer who accompanied said, "Don’t ever get a place like this again. How could you bring Mama, who has back pain, here?" In its website, it appeared to be nicely decorated. However, the reality was quite different.

I climbed the stairs with Semchigo as if I were walking on a good road. The bathroom was truly a mess. The seat was broken and kept creaking, making it hard to sit down. But I offered it up with Semchigo as if I had used a really good bathroom, and it made me so happy. Let us offer up our entire life graciously through the Prayers of Life. Therefore, in the love of the Lord and the Blessed Mother, we should fully experience joy, love, and peace.

Right now, my back is severely affected by scoliosis and stenosis, and the bones are pressing on the nerves, as though a broken bone is stabbing me. The doctor has said that I shouldn't lie down flat at all. Amid this, I will meet each one of you for your healing.

This is the reason I had back surgery. I never had back pain before. However, after praying for those with back pain and offering up reparation sufferings, my back became this way. While offering my suffering in reparation for abortion, my uterus and intestine became adhered, so I had to undergo a hysterectomy. My back condition is similar. There was a person who couldn't be cured in the hospital, and stayed with two weights attached to him, but he was healed in Naju.

Another person was crossing the crosswalk after midnight when a van came and hit her. When they checked, it turned out she hadn’t died. So, the driver came back and hit her again before running off. Someone then took her to Nam-Gwang Hospital. Her back and other parts of her body were completely broken, leaving no part of her body intact. I went and prayed for her, and she was healed. As they were healed, my back started to hurt.

My belly is not usually swollen like this. Right now, I am suffering the pain in reparation for abortion. For those who have had an abortion, don’t worry. Since you understand “Abortion is murder,” you can begin anew from now on. All you need is to sincerely repent, and make a new start. If you have children, take even better care of them for the sake of those fetuses.

We need to accept and feel it well. We don’t know how the Lord will come to us, so let us clearly realize the simple truth that even light feathers accumulated together in large numbers can sink a boat, and start anew. We don’t know when God will call us. Let us all practice the Five Spiritualities so that we may be ready to go directly to Heaven and avoid purgatory.

I say this to God: “God the Father, for whom nothing is impossible, You created this world and brought existence from nothing. Please grant that the Naju Shrine be approved as ‘Nihil Obstat (Nothing Hinders),’ so that pilgrimages may be freely possible. May all clergy, religious brothers and sisters, and Your children in the world come to Naju and practice the Five Spiritualities. No matter what happens, may they not get angry, but instead offer up their suffering with Semchigo as if being loved.

Even if a stone rolled and hit us while we were in this place, may we think, “It is my fault because I was there.” We can accept everything as “my fault,” and also with an Amen. From the moment we wake up to the moment we fall asleep, if we turn everything of our lives into prayers, God's Kingdom will be realized on earth. Therefore, Lord, please grant approval for the Naju Shrine as ‘Nihil Obstat,’ so that Your glory is revealed.” I continue to cry out to God.

Let us all strive together with the Five Spiritualities, so that the Triumph of the Lord and the Blessed Mother may come to this world and the new Pentecost may occur. Dear all, if we do never step down from Mary’s Ark of Salvation, nor glance aside or look back, the Blessed Mother will lead us to Heaven.

There has never been a single saint who did not follow the Blessed Mother. If all of us come to Jesus through the Blessed Mother, that is the shortcut to Heaven. You, who are chosen as selected grains among the good grains, will certainly be rescued by the Lord and the Blessed Mother, even when you face an imminent crisis where you cannot do anything, and They will keep you upright as a people who never give up your integrity despite difficulties. Let us all live lives of sacrifice, penance, and offering up, so that we may enjoy Heaven with hearts of poverty and self-mortification. Amen!

Let us achieve victory through love. Let us defeat the devils who fill the sky and earth. Amen! How can we defeat the devils who fill the sky and earth? We should practice the Five Spiritualities, right? Let us all triumph with the Five Spiritualities. Amen! Thank you!
