TESTIMONY
Eucharistic Miracle during the Holy Mass celebrated by His Excellency the
Most Rev. Mons. Giovanni Bulaitis, Apostolic Nuncio, in the Chapel at Casa
San Benedetto, Roma, on February 28, 2010
I was
already informed that Julia Kim of Naju would come to Rome on February 26,
2010. According to the information I was given, the Most Holy Virgin Mary
had told Julia to go to Rome to meet Archbishop Bulaitis, who had been the
Nuncio to Korea (and previously Secretary (to the Nuncio)), without other
precise details.
This request
was given to Julia on November 24, 2009, the 15th anniversary
of the Eucharistic miracle which had occurred on the day when Nuncio
Bulaitis had visited Naju.
At the
meeting with Julia in Rome on February 27, accompanied by the helpers in
Naju, she brought and handed over to me a statue of the Most Holy Virgin
Mary of Naju, water from the Mountain in Naju, various photographs, and
other items.
She reminded
me that, on November 24, 1994, I was really called by the Most Holy Virgin
to be the OMEGA of Naju, while Father Spies, SDB, Julia’s spiritual
director, was called to be the ALPHA for spreading the Madonna’s messages
for Naju.
In Rome with
the group from Korea, it was agreed to celebrate a Holy Mass for them on
Sunday, February 28, 2010, in Casa San Benedetto, and, after the Holy
Mass, to let them go to St. Peter’s Square at noon to receive the Holy
Father’s blessing.
On February 25, 2010, at night, the Most Holy
Virgin called me to tell me that Julia would bring a “message” for me. I
thought and asked if the Most Holy Virgin had really spoken to me. I said
to myself a short “Yes”, because nobody has called me in many years by my
English name “John” instead of “Giovanni” except my brothers and sisters.
Thus convinced, I went to a confessional in the Church near Casa San
Benedetto to prepare myself to receive as much grace as possible through
this meeting.
On Sunday, February 28, 2010, I celebrated the
Holy Mass for them, together with Father Aloysius from Korea, he in Korean
and I saying parts in Italian. I thought that perhaps the Most Holy
Virgin might give me a “message” through Julia during the Mass.
During the
communion, I gave to Julia the Host intincted in the consecrated wine.
When the distribution to the persons present was finished, one of Julia’s
helpers made a sign to me to come closer to Julia. She opened her mouth
and we saw that the Host was transformed into a large, swollen form of
flesh covered with blood as in a heart. All who were present saw what had
happened and numerous photographs were taken. Afterwards, there was a
period of time of long silence, for about 15 minutes. Then, I asked one
of the helpers to give a little water to Julia. Thus the Mass ended with
a blessing.
Afterwards, I
examined Julia’s mouth, which was found normal and of a clear(fair) color
without stains or lesions. Then, I inserted a purificator into Julia’s
mouth to see if there was any blood. But there was none of it on the
purificator which was completely clean.
Later, I
asked Julia if the Most Holy Virgin had given any “Message” for me. She
answered, “Yes” and said that the Most Holy Virgin had wanted to give me a
Sign and that this Eucharistic Miracle was the thirteenth one to Julia and
the last one for Naju. None of Julia’s companions, with the exception of
Father Aloysius, had ever witnessed a Eucharistic Miracle. The whole
Chapel was filled with the fragrance of roses.
I asked the
participants not to spread the news about this Miracle, but lifted (the
restriction) for later when they returned to Korea.
I wrote
all this in truth and being conscious of my responsibility. Since a long
time ago, I have discussed the question of Naju with the Secretariat of
the State, the Congregation for the Evangelization of Peoples, and with
the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. This last Congregation
asked me to prepare and present a “Dossier” on Naju. The Holy Father has
been illuminated and well-informed about Naju for many years by the
Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith.
The Servant
of God Pope John Paul II had sent his secretary from Vietnam to deliver
his salutation to the Madonna of Naju and to Julia. A few months later,
the Holy Father invited Julia to come to Rome to attend a Holy Mass in his
private Chapel. The Holy Father, John Paul II, during his Holy Mass, gave
communion to Julia from his hands, which was transformed in her mouth into
real flesh and real blood. The date of this Miracle was October 31, 1995,
the vigil of the 49th anniversary of the Pope’s ordination and also the
day when Pope Pius XII consecrated the world to the Immaculate Heart of
Mary.
The
Eucharistic miracle of February 28, 2010 was the second time that such a
miracle (known to the public) that was verified to have occurred in the
territory of the Holy See in the Vatican, since Casa San Benedetto also,
which carries the name of Pope Benedict XVI, is extraterritorial and is
under the Holy See’s jurisdiction.
