It has already been a month since the commemorative prayer meeting that took place from June 29th to July 4th, where overseas pilgrims gathered and participated.
Lucy and Maria, accompanied by about 30 fellow pilgrims from Singapore, returned to the Naju Sanctuary in a mere two weeks. ๐๐ป Lucy had attended the 38th-anniversary prayer meeting, where she received healing for her thyroid, cholesterol, and diabetes! Grateful for her healing, Lucy embarked on this pilgrimage! ๐๐ป๐
During this gratitude-filled journey, an astonishing healing of her legs unfolded! Lucy had previously struggled to walk unaided through the Stations of the Cross on the Blessed Mother's mountain. Yet, this time, her legs felt remarkably light. She confidently traversed the Stations of the Cross alone, clutching a candle in one hand and a rosary in the other, devoid of any assistance! ๐ญ
To all pilgrims visiting the Naju Shrine, the Lord ensures that no one departs without being bestowed with blessings! Whether discernible or concealed, perceivable or unperceivable, the Lord showers us with the graces we need. Amen! ๐โจ๐
Amidst Korea's sweltering August, ๐ณ๐ during which heatwave alerts were common, pilgrims who fervently prayed the Stations of the Cross beneath the scorching sun were granted another remarkable grace. Clouds gathered to shade and cool us, carried by refreshing breezes! ๐ฅฐ
Furthermore, we offered up the Prayers of Life—prayers for others and for as many reconciliations as there are beads of sweat we shed. These prayers were also intended to cleanse our souls of all negative aspects (ego, pride, selfishness, jealousy, laziness, greed, etc.). It was palpable that the Lord enriched us with His abundant grace. ๐๐ป
On this day, Mama Julia also graced us with her presence. Despite struggling with insomnia and not having proper meals, she willingly embraced intense pain originating from headaches, backaches, the burden of sin of others, and excruciating pain from her head to toe. This sacrifice was made for the well-being of all pilgrims, including those who wished to come but were unable to. Despite enduring these extreme pains, Mama Julia expressed her happiness as she foresaw the forthcoming healing of the pilgrims. ๐๐น๐๐ป
Fr. Victor from the United States, who embarked on a pilgrimage to Naju last June, had visited numerous sacred sites worldwide. Nonetheless, he asserted that there is no place comparable to the Naju Shrine. He aptly described Naju as a direct route to Heaven. Many individuals share his sentiments.
The Naju Shrine serves as a sanctuary of love and miracles, where healing flourishes. It is where the Lord, the Blessed Mother, and their chosen soul, Mama Julia, grace us with their presence. ๐ฅฐโค
Subsequent to the prayer meeting, Mama Julia emerged to meet each pilgrim wholeheartedly, bestowing kisses and sharing her breath. Numerous pilgrims returned reinvigorated, brimming with newfound strength, courage, and love, their countenances radiating resplendent joy. ๐
The Naju Shrine in Korea—the true dwelling of the Lord and the Blessed Mother—is where their boundless love is tangibly experienced. Wouldn't you wish to encounter and sense this reality for yourself? ๐๐๐ป
We cordially invite you to join us in October for the 37th anniversary of the Blessed Mother's first shedding of Tears of Blood. Despite any challenges we might face, if we earnestly beseech Our Heavenly Mother, we will undoubtedly convene at the Naju Shrine in October! Amen! Korea Naju Shrine in October! Amen!
