Q: Have you heard about the Sofferetti
apparitions?
A: Julia's apparitions started on August 5, 1985
at the Sofferetti Oak (Calabria, Italy). The first published message from Our
Lady there was in October 1985. Don Mario started to advise Julia in
1987.
Early in the 1990s Our Lord started to appear every
Thursday 9:05 a.m. in Julia's farmhouse in Thurio. About Lent 1992 the
phenomena of the haemographic handkerchiefs manifested itself, with images in
her stigmata blood depicting the Host with JHS and the message in Italian: I
WILL COME.
Over the next few years these blood-message
handkerchiefs were sent to the worldwide Hierarchy by Don Mario. In 1996
alone he personally mailed eight hundred of these handkerchiefs to Bishops on
the five continents. In 1998 Julia received eight secrets for the Pope and
attempts have been made to get Don Mario an audience to tell the Holy Father
these secrets.
On May 1, 1998 Our Lord asked for a room on the third
floor of Julia's house. This was built and inaugurated on October 12,
1998.
On August 30, 1991 Don Mario was asked about Julia's
mystical phenomena. He says that Julia experiences the entire range of
mystical phenomena: apparitions, locutions, visions, dictation during
ecstasy, and crucifixion pains, too.
