The Holy Mother Appeared also in Akita, Japan

The Holy Mary has given warnings abut coming tragedies of the mankind since her apparitions in Fatima, Portugal, in 1917.  In Akita in Japan She also appeared.

Our Lady of Akita (Japanese: 秋田の聖母マリア) is a title of the Blessed Virgin Mary associated with the Marian apparitions reported in 1973 by Sister Agnes Katsuko Sasagawa in the remote area of Yuzawadai, an outskirt of Akita, Japan. The messages emphasize prayer (especially recitation of the Holy Rosary) and penance in combination with cryptic prophecies warning of sacerdotal persecution and heresy within the Catholic Church. A wooden statue representing the apparitions is venerated by the Japanese faithful and other Catholics. In December of 1973, a Japanese television station videotaped tears coming from the statue's eyes. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Our_Lady_of_Akita)

It is said that the wooden statue of the Holy Mary in the convent in Akita shed tears 101 times from 1975 to 1981.  Even in 2019 Sister Agnes Katsuko Sasagawa whose hearing impairments was cured by a Marian apparition there got a message from an angel who recommended more prayers.  And, Sasagawa felt that it was close to time.

And, in 2019 the Pope Francis visited Japan. In 2020, the corona pandemic started from China,  In 2022, Russia invaded Ukraine.  In 2023, abnormal weather has been intensified with abnormally hot summer.  

The Vatican officially authorized the Marian Apparition in Akita. But, it is well known that the Holy Mary also appeared in Garabandal, Spain, Medjugorje, Bosnia and Herzegovina, etc.  However, it is impressive that Marian apparitions happened in Japan where Christians are a minority (only 1% of the Japanese are official Christians). 

Some people might think that if it was so grave and imminent, Christ Jesus Himself but not the Holy Mary should appear and give warnings to the mankind.  Or, they might think that such miracles are meaningless as any miracles can happen at any time in this world.

It was three years before John-Paul II became the Pope that Sasagawa first saw a Marian apparition in Akita.　And, in 1981 when John-Paul II was shot and wounded, the Holy Mary started to appear in Medjugorje.  Further in 2005, when John-Paul II died, Lucia, the last surviving girl of the miracle of Fatima, died in the same year, too.  Indeed, John-Paul II and the miracle of Fatima were closely related, and the case in Akita seems to be linked to John-Paul II.  And both Fatima and Akita are located on 38th parallel north.  And, Russia is between Medjugorje and Akita.

Anyway, it seems that WWIII will happen in the late 2020s.  And great natural disasters will happen in 2030s.  Big tsunamis might also attack Japan in 2030s.  The era of 2030s might become years of tragedies.  

So, it is natural that the God has sent the Holy Mother beforehand to give warnings to the mankind and the Japanese people.  If we take the corona pandemic starting in 2020 and the Ukraine War starting in 2022 seriously,  we should take Marian apparitions seriously.    

But, if we continue our prayer to the God, Christ Jesus, and the Holy Mary through 2020s, we may be saved.

Matthew 10, King James Version
5 These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, Go not into the way of the Gentiles, and into any city of the Samaritans enter ye not:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
7 And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand.
8 Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.
9 Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses,
10 Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.
11 And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence.
12 And when ye come into an house, salute it.
13 And if the house be worthy, let your peace come upon it: but if it be not worthy, let your peace return to you.
14 And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.
15 Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
