Three Prophecies by Theresa Neumann to a Croatian Priest

‘Croats are the backbone of Europe’

The sermon by don Josip Mužić, a priest and writer from Split, delivered this Saturday at the shrine of Our Lady of Okita, brought a powerful message about the spiritual identity and great mission of the Croatian people.

What we are bringing should remind us of the responsibility we have as members of the Church of Croatia. don Josip Mužić’s words were summarized and published by Miljenko Jurić, coordinator of the Warriors of Mary in Croatia.

The sermon centered on a lesser-known but deeply moving historical event: the meeting of the young Croatian Jesuit Petar Perica, author of the famous Croatian song “Zdravo Djevo, Kraljice Hrvata” (Hail, Virgin, Queen of Croats), with the famous German mystic Theresa Neumann. This meeting, which took place while Perica was receiving treatment in Germany, was marked by prophetic words that, according to testimonies, strongly marked his life, but also prophesied the mission of the Croatian people.

Three prophecies

The three prophecies that, according to the tradition of his life, which is brought by Don Mužić, Therese Neumann uttered to Petar Perica are not just pious thoughts. Two have already been fulfilled in the historical circumstances of the 20th century, while the third, as Don Josip Mužić pointed out, is still being realized, the persistent loyalty of Croatian believers.

1. Prophecy of martyrdom

Theresa Neumann announced to Petar Perica that he would die a martyr’s death. This prophecy was tragically fulfilled in 1944, when the Partisan authorities arrested Perica without trial, together with about fifty other civilians from Dubrovnik and the surrounding area. They were taken to the islet of Daksa, where they were tortured, executed and thrown into a common pit. Petar Perica thus became one of the numerous Croatian martyrs of the 20th century.

2. Prophecy of a free and independent Croatia

The second prophecy concerned the fate of the Croatian state: that Croatia would be free and independent by the end of the century. This prophecy was fulfilled in the early 1990s, with the creation of the independent Republic of Croatia after decades of communist repression and the Homeland War.

3. Prophecy about the spiritual mission of Croats

The third prophecy, according to Don Josip Mužić, is still ongoing. According to it, Croatia and the Croatian people are called to be the “backbone of Europe”, a people who will preserve and defend the Christian faith on a continent that is increasingly moving away from its spiritual roots.

This, as emphasized in the announcement, is now being realized through persistent witness: through dawn services, the Walk for Life, prayer in front of hospitals, public prayer in squares, through lines for confession and daily fidelity to the Gospel.

Let us recall that this last prophecy completely coincides with the prophecy received by Don Stefano Gobbi, collaborator of Our Lady and author of the Blue Book and founder of the Priestly Marian Movement.

Who was Theresa Neumann?

Theresa Neumann (1898 – 1962) was a German Catholic mystic from Konnersreuth. Known as a victim soul with stigmata on her body and for the fact that for more than three decades she lived exclusively on Holy Communion, without taking food and water. Her life was the subject of numerous ecclesiastical and medical research, and her deep piety and mystical experiences left a strong mark on the Catholic world of the 20th century.

Who was Petar Perica?

Petar Perica (1881 – 1944) was a Croatian Jesuit, poet and author of the famous Marian hymn “Zdravo Djevo, Kraljice Hrvata”, which he wrote at the age of 24. He was a youth educator and a deeply devoted priest. His martyrdom on Daxa ranks him among the prominent witnesses of faith in Croatian history.

Let us also recall the conversation with Don Josip Mužić, who also prophetically announced to us a battle greater than Lepanto if we accept the mission that heaven clearly gives us as a people in these apocalyptic times.
