The Blessed Mother's
Mountain in Naju, Korea

A Special Place of Graces

The Blessed Mother's mountain in Naju is a sacred place chosen by her and blessed with miraculous changes in the Eucharistic species twice, descent of the Eucharist twice and descent of Our Lord'sPrecious Blood and Our Lady'stears of blood seven times between 1995 and 2003.

This Mountain is also the site of a miraculous spring, which has been instrumental in numerous physical healings. Frequently, the air on the Mountain becomes filled with a fragrance of roses. The area above the spring has been landscaped in the design of the reverse side of the Miraculous Medal as the Blessed Mother instructed Julia Kim in a vision. Above this area, there is a replica of Mt. Calvary with a large Crucifix and statues of Our Lady, St. John, St. Mary Magdalene, and a Roman soldier. Encircling this whole area is the Way of the Cross with fifteen Stations. This Mountain is located five miles west of Our Lady'sChapel where her statue, which wept and exuded fragrant oil, is being preserved and honored.

 MIRACULOUS CHANGES IN THE EUCHARISTIC SPECIES

During the Mass celebrated on this Mountain by Bishop Dominic Su from Malaysia on August 24, 1995, and also during the Mass celebrated at the same location by Bishop Roman Danylak from Canada on September 22, 1995, the Eucharist changed into visible and live flesh and blood in the shape of a heart on Julia'stongue. After his return to Canada, Bishop Danylak wrote, “For the first time, human eyes saw the living Heart of Our Lord and Savior, the Heart that had so loved the world that It offered Itself in the holocaust that we might live and not be lost.?Bishop Su has since returned to the same Mountain several times. On August 15, 2002, he witnessed a miraculous descent of Our Lord'sPrecious Blood in the area where the two Eucharistic miracles had occurred. This site of the two Eucharistic miracles is being specially protected with a round transparent cover.

DESCENT OF THE EUCHARIST

On November 24, 2001, early in the morning, while doing the Stations of the Cross on the Blessed Mother'sMountain with several companions, Julia saw powerful and beautiful rays of light radiating from Jesus on the Cross. Then, His Seven Wounds opened and poured forth blood. The streams of blood promptly converged into one, changed into the Eucharist, and descended into Julia'smouth. Jesus said, "My beloved little soul! Receive and consume this. It is the Blood of My Covenant that I shed to wash away the sins of the children in the world and is My Flesh that nourishes souls. Become completely dissolved in Me and become one with My Heart so that you may become one with Me."

Again, on January 1, 2002, at about 10 a.m., when Julia was praying under the Crucifix on the Blessed Mother's Mountain, she saw a drop of blood forming on the middle toe of the Lord'sright foot, which soon turned into a Sacred Host and entered her mouth even though she was wearing a mask because of the cold weather. Jesus said, "Oh, My beloved little soul! This is the heavenly food that I give you in order to completely pour down the totality of My Love upon you."

 

 

DESCENT OF OUR LORD’S PRECIOUS BLOOD
AND OUR LADY'S TEARS OF BLOOD

  1. On November 9, 2001, Julia suffered severe pains while doing the Stations of the Cross on the Blessed Mother'sMountain. She saw a vision of Jesus shedding His Precious Blood and the Blessed Mother shedding her tears of blood. At that moment, thousands of little stones and some fallen tree leaves between the Third Station (where Jesus fell the first time) and the Fifteenth Station (where Jesus resurrected) became stained with freshly-shed blood. Little pieces of flesh were also found on a few stones. Soon the Blessed Mother appeared, shedding tears of blood, and gave this message: “I listen attentively to the sounds of earnest prayers that you offer up on the Way of the Cross and accompany you, shedding tears of blood at the side of my Son Jesus Who is shedding blood and is with you.?br> 
  2. On January 18, 2002, at about 9:30 a.m., large quantities of blood came down between the Seventh Station (where Jesus fell the second time) and the Thirteenth Station (where the Body of Jesus was lowered from the Cross). Julia received a message from Jesus: “I came to you, shedding blood like this, in order to be with you. If all those who walk on this Way of the Cross open their hearts widely, desire sincerely to be united with Me, and pray participating in the pains that I suffer, they will meet Me and receive spiritual and physical healings.?In the afternoon, several pilgrims found more fresh blood on the paved area and a large rock at the Twelfth Station (where Jesus died on the Cross).
     
  3. On January 27, 2002, the Precious Blood came down again, this time at the Ninth Station (where Jesus fell the third time), the Eleventh Station (where Jesus was nailed to the Cross), and the Twelfth Station. Our Lord said, “The reason why I am revealing My Love even by shedding blood for you is to wash away your sins thoroughly and perform a transfusion. This is a testimony of My intense Love for all of you and is the Blood of the Covenant.?br> 
  4. On February 2, 2002, bloody sweat and water shed by the Lord came down at the Tenth Station (where Jesus was stripped of His garments) and the Eleventh Station. The Blessed Mother said, “I will let you grow spiritually through the earnest prayers that you offer up with your whole hearts on this Way of the Cross where I walk with my Son Jesus, bleeding with Him. The Lord will bathe your souls and bodies with His Sacred Blood.?br> 
  5. On June 11, 2002, Our Lord'sPrecious Blood came down on the ground at the location where Eucharistic miracles had occurred on August 24, 1995, and September 22, 1995. Blood on some stones was thick and moving as if breathing.
     
  6. On August 15, 2002, when Bishop Dominic Su, Father Francis Su, and other pilgrims came to the Blessed Mother'sMountain, the Precious Blood came down at about 10 a.m. at the location where Eucharistic miracles had occurred on August 24 and September 22, 1995. The quantity of the blood was so large that it looked as though it was poured down. Jesus said, “As you see and feel My most sublime Precious Blood which I poured out, holding back none, by opening My Sacred Heart for all of you, rely totally on Me with total faith and trust and with gratitude and love, and make this most sublime love known to all people. If they accept it humbly and repent, they will obtain My infinite love and mercy and be blessed with eternal happiness at the last moment.?br> 
  7. On February 16, 2003, the day when the most recent message was received, Our Lord'sPrecious Blood and Our Lady'stears of blood came down on Julia'sforehead while she was praying under the Crucifix on the Mountain.

 

 

SAMPLES OF THE BLOOD WERE TESTED

A total of ten samples (little stones stained with blood on the Blessed Mother's Mountain in Naju) were subjected to DNA testing, five times per sample for a total of 50 tests, at Seoul National University over a period of one-and-a-half years from early 2002 to September 2003. This work was led by Dr. Jung Bin Lee, head of the Department of Forensic Medicine at the University. After completing the tests, Dr. Lee made verbal statements during an interview on September 8, 2003, followed by an official written statement the next day. The following is a summary of Dr. Lee'sstatements:

  • Eight of the ten samples were from one same male human.
     
  • The other two samples were from one same female human.
     
  • The blood type of the male human was AB.
     
  • The blood type of the female human was B (more precisely for genetic purposes, BO).
     
  • In order to confirm the consistency of the test results, Dr. Lee requested more samples repeatedly until a total of ten samples were submitted. With these samples, he finished a total of 50 tests with completely consistent results.
     
  • Dr. Lee added that the DNA reading of the male human blood was identical to the earlier test result with the blood sample from a Eucharistic miracle on July 2, 1995, when seven Sacred Hosts descended from the Crucifix in the Chapel and one of them received by Julia turned into visible flesh and blood on her tongue.

Our Lord'sblood type, AB, found in the above tests coincides with the test result in Lanciano, Italy. The DNA reading of the Blessed Mother'sblood at Seoul National University probably was the first one in history. One could still raise a question regarding the Lord'sblood type, AB. We can see that the B gene in the Lord'sblood came from the Blessed Mother, but where did the A gene come from? We know from the Christian Faith that Our Lord did not have any human father for His Incarnation. The answer would seem to be that the Holy Spirit, Who effected the Conception of Our Lord in the Virgin Mary'swomb, chose an A gene and gave it to the Baby Jesus. God, Who is almighty, has no difficulty at all in doing what He wills.

 

 

MIRACLES CONTINUE IN NAJU

On April 16, 2005, two Sacred Hosts descended miraculously in Naju and bled visibly on May 6. The fragrance of roses, occasional descents of fragrant oil, physical healings, and spiritual conversions continue and are experienced by an increasing number of pilgrims. Also, on April 9, 2004 and March 25, 2005, Good Friday, while Julia was doing the Stations of the Cross on the Mountain, she suffered intense pains corresponding to those suffered by the Lord. Bleeding wounds from whipping appeared on her legs.

 

 

THE MEANING OF THESE MIRACULOUS SIGNS

The most notable characteristic of the genuine signs from God is that they are inseparably connected with the saving truths that Our Lord already revealed and entrusted to His Church for preservation and propagation. The main theme of these truths is that God loved us so much that He sent His Only Son to the world to teach us the way (i.e. the truths and the Commandments) and redeem us from sins with the graces merited through His Passion. The great majority of people in this modern world seem uninterested in these truths of paramount importance, focusing more on material gains and other self-centered goals, which cannot give them true and lasting happiness and life that they really need. Now, especially in Naju, Korea, God is sending us stern messages and powerful signs to awaken our complacent souls to the tremendous reality of His saving truths that are focused on the Lord'sPassion and Resurrection. This Paschal Mystery of Our Lord'sPassion and Resurrection is not just a historical event, but continues to be the most relevant, powerful, and living reality and source of the saving graces for all of us. What is happening in Naju ?especially on the Blessed Mother'sMountain ?is God'sown testimony to what is really important to us as well as His offer of overflowing graces. The Church officially teaches the continuing reality of the Lord'sPassion and Resurrection:

His Paschal mystery is a real history, but it is unique: all other historical events happen once, and then they pass away, swallowed up in the past. The Paschal mystery of Christ, by contrast, cannot remain only in the past, because by his death he destroyed death, and all that Christ is ?all that he did and suffered for all men ?participates in the divine eternity, and so transcends all times while being made present in them all. The event of the Cross and Resurrection abides and draws everything toward life. ?Catechism of the Catholic Church, #1085

The Mystery of Our Lord'sPassion and Resurrection thus is not only to be remembered but also to be participated in and lived by us. Our Lord said, “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me?(Matthew 16:24).

In fact, there has been no Saint who has not constantly strived to unite with the Lord'sPassion by turning his or her entire life, including even the most trivial things, into opportunities for practicing self-denial, sacrifice, prayer, and other acts of charity. The transcendence of Our Lord'sPaschal Mystery over time means that He suffered and died for human sins of all ages. We need to be clearly aware that our own moral failures and unfaithfulness to God'sWill are direct causes of Our Lord'ssufferings and death as well as Our Lady's sorrows. By participating in the Lord'sPaschal Mystery, we can atone for our own sins and also help save others. A most excellent way of uniting with this Paschal Mystery is to frequently and sincerely participate in the Sacred Liturgy of the Holy Mass, which is a true re-presentation of Our Lord'ssacrificial offering on the Cross. It is also important that we make frequent and sincere Confessions to cleanse our souls from additional sins and keep ourselves humble before God. The Stations of the Cross, daily rosary, and spiritual reading are also effective ways of growing in the union with Our Lord and Our Lady. Our union with the Lord'sPaschal Mystery will then become a powerful source of charity toward all our neighbors and zeal to pray for them and spread the Lord'ssaving truths so that all may become faithful members of God'sFamily and Kingdom.

 

 

How the Miraculous Spring in Naju began

On January 18, 1990, Jesus promised Julia, “In the not-too-distant future, through My Mother, I will give you a miraculous spring close to your place, which will be overflowing with love and grace and through which souls and bodies can be healed.?

On August 26, 1992, while praying, Julia saw a vision of the Blessed Mother climbing up a mountain, carrying several large bundles of soiled clothes and linens, one on her head, two in her hands, and more pushed forward with her feet. She stopped near a large creek with crystal-clear water and began washing the clothes and linens. Down the stream not far from where the Blessed Mother was, many people were drinking the water and washing themselves with it. Some were playing joyfully in the creek. The next day Julia went to the place which she had seen in the vision and began digging with her bare hands the ground where she had seen the creek. Every time she dug the ground, water came out and a stream of water began, and this was repeated until there were seven streams of water. When she dug for the eighth time, the seven streams merged into one.

In her message to Julia on the same mountain on May 27, 1993, the Blessed Mother said, ”I will make this place a shrine of mine and wash numerous souls who are walking toward hell.?/span>
