(2) Genesis 3: 9-15, 20
But Yahweh God called to the man. 'Where are you?' he asked. 'I heard the sound of you in the garden,' he replied. 'I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.' 'Who told you that you were naked?' he asked. 'Have you been eating from the tree I forbade you to eat?' The man replied, 'It was the woman you put with me; she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.' Then Yahweh God said to the woman, 'Why did you do that?' The woman replied, 'The snake tempted me and I ate.'
Then Yahweh God said to the snake, 'Because you have done this,
Accursed be you
of all animals wild and tame!
On your belly you will go
and on dust you will feed
as long as you live.
I shall put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
it will bruise your head
and you will strike its heel.'The man named his wife 'Eve' because she was the mother of all those who live.
(3) Luke 1: 28
He went in and said to her, ‘Rejoice, you who enjoy God’s favour! the Lord is with you.’
(4) Luke 1: 35
The angel answered, ‘The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will cover you with its shadow. And so the child will be holy and will be called Son of God.
(5) Luke 1: 38
Mary said, ‘You see before you the Lord’s servant, let it happen to me as you have said.’ And the angel left her.
(6) Luke 1: 26-38
In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the House of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. He went in and said to her, ‘Rejoice, you who enjoy God’s favour! The Lord is with you.’ She was deeply disturbed by these words and asked herself what this greeting could mean, but the angel said to her, ‘Mary, do not be afraid; you have won God’s favour. Look! You are to conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you must name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David; he will rule over the House of Jacob for ever and his reign will have no end.’ Mary said to the angel, ‘But how can this come about, since I have no knowledge of man?’ The angel answered, ‘The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will cover you with its shadow. And so the child will be holy and will be called Son of God. And I tell you this too: your cousin Elizabeth also, in her old age, has conceived a son, and she whom people called barren is now in her sixth month, for nothing is impossible to God.’ Mary said, ‘You see before you the Lord’s servant, let it happen to me as you have said.’ And the angel left her.

Visitation

(2) Luke 1: 42
She gave a loud cry and said, ‘Of all women you are the most blessed, and blessed is the fruit of your womb.
(3) Isaiah 11: 1-10
A shoot will spring
from the stock of Jesse,
a new shoot will grow from his roots.
On him will rest the spirit of Yahweh,
the spirit of wisdom and insight,
the spirit of counsel and power,
the spirit of knowledge
and fear of Yahweh:
his inspiration will lie in fearing Yahweh.
His judgement will not be
by appearances.
his verdict not given on hearsay.
He will judge the weak with integrity
and give fair sentence
for the humblest in the land.
He will strike the country
with the rod of his mouth
and with the breath of his lips
bring death to the wicked.Uprightness will be
the belt around his waist,
and constancy the belt about his hips.The wolf will live with the lamb,
the panther lie down with the kid,
calf, lion and fat–stock beast together,
with a little boy to lead them.
The cow and the bear will graze,
their young will lie down together.
The lion will eat hay like the ox.
The infant will play
over the den of the adder;
the baby will put his hand
into the viper’s lair.
No hurt, no harm will be done
on all my holy mountain,
for the country will be full
of knowledge of Yahweh
as the waters cover the sea.That day, the root of Jesse,
standing as a signal for the peoples,
will be sought out by the nations
and its home will be glorious.
(4) Matthew 3: 1-12
In due course John the Baptist appeared; he proclaimed this message in the desert of Judaea, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of Heaven is close at hand.’ This was the man spoken of by the prophet Isaiah when he said:
A voice of one that cries in the desert,
‘Prepare a way for the Lord,
make his paths straight.’This man John wore a garment made of camel–hair with a leather loin–cloth round his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey. Then Jerusalem and all Judaea and the whole Jordan district made their way to him, and as they were baptised by him in the river Jordan they confessed their sins. But when he saw a number of Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism he said to them, ‘Brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the coming retribution? Produce fruit in keeping with repentance, and do not presume to tell yourselves, "We have Abraham as our father," because, I tell you, God can raise children for Abraham from these stones. Even now the axe is being laid to the root of the trees, so that any tree failing to produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown on the fire. I baptise you in water for repentance, but the one who comes after me is more powerful than I, and I am not fit to carry his sandals; he will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His winnowing–fan is in his hand; he will clear his threshing–floor and gather his wheat into his barn; but the chaff he will burn in a fire that will never go out.’
(5) Matthew 11: 2-11
Now John had heard in prison what Christ was doing and he sent his disciples to ask him, ‘Are you the one who is to come, or are we to expect someone else?’ Jesus answered, ‘Go back and tell John what you hear and see; the blind see again, and the lame walk, those suffering from virulent skin–diseases are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised to life and the good news is proclaimed to the poor; and blessed is anyone who does not find me a cause of falling.’
As the men were leaving, Jesus began to talk to the people about John, 'What did you go out into the desert to see? A reed swaying in the breeze? No? Then what did you go out to see? A man wearing fine clothes? Look, those who wear fine clothes are to be found in palaces. Then what did you go out for? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet: he is the one of whom scripture says:
Look, I am going to send my messenger
in front of you
to prepare your way before you.'In truth I tell you, of all the children born to women, there has never been anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet the least in the kingdom of Heaven is greater than he.
(6) Acts 13: 16-17, 22-25
Paul stood up, raised his hand for silence and began to speak:
'Men of Israel, and fearers of God, listen! The God of our nation Israel chose our ancestors and made our people great when they were living in Egypt, a land not their own; then by divine power he led them out
he deposed him and raised up David to be king, whom he attested in these words, "I have found David son of Jesse, a man after my own heart, who will perform my entire will." To keep his promise, God has raised up for Israel one of David's descendants, Jesus, as Saviour, whose coming was heralded by John when he proclaimed a baptism of repentance for the whole people of Israel. Before John ended his course he said, "I am not the one you imagine me to be; there is someone coming after me whose sandal I am not fit to undo."

Birth of Jesus
(1) Psalm 24: 1-6
To Yahweh belong the earth and all it contains,
the world and all who live there;
it is he who laid its foundations on the seas,
on the flowing waters fixed it firm.Who shall go up to the mountain of Yahweh?
Who shall take a stand in his holy place?The clean of hands and pure of heart,
whose heart is not set on vanities,
who does not swear an oath in order to deceive.Such a one will receive blessing from Yahweh,
saving justice from the God of his salvation.
Such is the people that seeks him,
that seeks your presence, God of Jacob. Pause
(2) Isaiah 7: 10-14
Yahweh spoke to Ahaz again and said:
Ask Yahweh your God for a sign,
either in the depths of Sheol
or in the heights above.But Ahaz said, ‘I will not ask. I will not put Yahweh to the test.’
He then said:Listen now, House of David:
are you not satisfied
with trying human patience
that you should try
my God’s patience too?
The Lord will give you a sign in any case:
It is this: the young woman is with child
and will give birth to a son
whom she will call Immanuel.
(3) Matthew 1: 18-24
This is how Jesus Christ came to be born. His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph; but before they came to live together she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph, being an upright man and wanting to spare her disgrace, decided to divorce her informally. He had made up his mind to do this when suddenly the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, ‘Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because she has conceived what is in her by the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son and you must name him Jesus, because he is the one who is to save his people from their sins.’ Now all this took place to fulfil what the Lord had spoken through the prophet:
Look! the virgin is with child
and will give birth to a son
whom they will call Immanuel,a name which means ‘God–is–with–us’. When Joseph woke up he did what the angel of the Lord had told him to do: he took his wife to his home; he had not had intercourse with her when she gave birth to a son; and he named him Jesus.
(4) Romans 1: 1-7
From Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle, set apart for the service of the gospel that God promised long ago through his prophets in the holy scriptures.
This is the gospel concerning his Son who, in terms of human nature was born a descendant of David and who, in terms of the Spirit and of holiness, was designated Son of God in power by resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ, our Lord, through whom we have received grace and our apostolic mission of winning the obedience of faith among all the nations for the honour of his name. You are among these, and by his call you belong to Jesus Christ. To you all, God's beloved in Rome, called to be his holy people. Grace and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
(5) Isaiah 9: 1-6
The people that walked in darkness
have seen a great light;
on the inhabitants of a country
in shadow dark as death
light has blazed forth.
You have enlarged the nation,
you have increased its joy;
they rejoice before you
as people rejoice at harvest time,
as they exult
when they are dividing the spoils.
For the yoke that weighed on it,
the bar across its shoulders,
the rod of its oppressor,
these you have broken
as on the day of Midian.
For all the footgear
clanking over the ground
and all the clothing rolled in blood,
will be burnt, will be food for the flames.For a son has been born for us,
a son has been given to us,
and dominion has been laid
on his shoulders;
and this is the name he has been given,
‘Wonder–Counsellor, Mighty–God,
Eternal–Father, Prince–of–Peace’
to extend his dominion
in boundless peace,
over the throne of David
and over his kingdom
to make it secure and sustain it
in fair judgement and integrity.
From this time onwards and for ever,
the jealous love of Yahweh Sabaoth
will do this.
(6) Luke 2: 15-20
Now it happened that when the angels had gone from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, ‘Let us go to Bethlehem and see this event which the Lord has made known to us.’ So they hurried away and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in the manger. When they saw the child they repeated what they had been told about him, and everyone who heard it was astonished at what the shepherds said to them. As for Mary, she treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart. And the shepherds went back glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, just as they had been told.
(7) John 1: 1-18
In the beginning was the Word:
the Word was with God
and the Word was God.
He was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things came into being,
not one thing came into being
except through him.
What has come into being in him was life,
life that was the light of men;
and light shines in darkness,
and darkness could not overpower it.A man came, sent by God.
His name was John.
He came as a witness,
to bear witness to the light,
so that everyone might believe
through him.
He was not the light,
he was to bear witness to the light.The Word was the real light
that gives light to everyone;
he was coming into the world.
He was in the world
that had come into being through him,
and the world did not recognise him.
He came to his own
and his own people did not accept him.But to those who did accept him
he gave power to become children of God,
to those who believed in his name
who were born not from human stock
or human desire
or human will
but from God himself.
The Word became flesh,
he lived among us,
and we saw his glory,
the glory that he has from the Father
as only Son of the Father,
full of grace and truth.John witnesses to him. He proclaims:
‘This is the one of whom I said:
He who comes after me
has passed ahead of me
because he existed before me.’Indeed, from his fullness
we have, all of us, received—
one gift replacing another,
for the Law was given through Moses,
grace and truth have come
through Jesus Christ.
No one has ever seen God;
it is the only Son,
who is close to the Father’s heart,
who has made him known.

Presentation
(1) Luke 2: 22-40
And when the day came for them to be purified in keeping with the Law of Moses, they took him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord—observing what is written in the Law of the Lord: Every first–born male must be consecrated to the Lord—and also to offer in sacrifice, in accordance with what is prescribed in the Law of the Lord, a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons. Now in Jerusalem there was a man named Simeon. He was an upright and devout man; he looked forward to the restoration of Israel and the Holy Spirit rested on him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death until he had set eyes on the Christ of the Lord. Prompted by the Spirit he came to the Temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the Law required, he took him into his arms and blessed God; and he said:
The Nunc Dimittis
Now, Master, you are letting
your servant go in peace
as you promised;
for my eyes have seen the salvation
which you have made ready
in the sight of the nations;
a light of revelation for the gentiles
and glory for your people Israel.As the child's father and mother were wondering at the things that were being said about him, Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, 'Look, he is destined for the fall and for the rise of many in Israel, destined to be a sign that is opposed- and a sword will pierce your soul too-so that the secret thoughts of many may be laid bare.'
There was a prophetess, too, Anna the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was well on in years. Her days of girlhood over, she had been married for seven years before becoming a widow. She was now eighty-four years old and never left the Temple, serving God night and day with fasting and prayer. She came up just at that moment and began to praise God; and she spoke of the child to all who looked forward to the deliverance of Jerusalem.
When they had done everything the Law of the Lord required, they went back to Galilee, to their own town of Nazareth. And as the child grew to maturity, he was filled with wisdom; and God's favour was with him.
(2) Hebrew 2: 14-18
Since all the children share the same human nature, he too shared equally in it, so that by his death he could set aside him who held the power of death, namely the devil, and set free all those who had been held in slavery all their lives by the fear of death. For it was not the angels that he took to himself; he took to himself the line of Abraham. It was essential that he should in this way be made completely like his brothers so that he could become a compassionate and trustworthy high priest for their relationship to God, able to expiate the sins of the people. For the suffering he himself passed through while being put to the test enables him to help others when they are being put to the test.

Finding of Jesus in the Temple
(1) Luke 2: 41-50
Every year his parents used to go to Jerusalem for the feast of the Passover. When he was twelve years old, they went up for the feast as usual. When the days of the feast were over and they set off home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem without his parents knowing it. They assumed he was somewhere in the party, and it was only after a day’s journey that they went to look for him among their relations and acquaintances. When they failed to find him they went back to Jerusalem looking for him everywhere.
It happened that, three days later, they found him in the Temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them, and asking them questions; and all those who heard him were astounded at his intelligence and his replies. They were overcome when they saw him, and his mother said to him, ‘My child, why have you done this to us? See how worried your father and I have been, looking for you.’ He replied, ‘Why were you looking for me? Did you not know that I must be in my Father’s house?’ But they did not understand what he meant.
(2) Deuteronomy 8: 2-3,14-16
Remember the long road by which Yahweh your God led you for forty years in the desert, to humble you, to test you and know your inmost heart -- whether you would keep his commandments or not. He humbled you, he made you feel hunger, he fed you with manna which neither you nor your ancestors had ever known, to make you understand that human beings live not on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of Yahweh.
When you have eaten all you want, when you have built fine houses to live in, when you have seen your flocks and herds increase, your silver and gold abound and all your possessions grow great, do not become proud of heart. Do not then forget Yahweh your God who brought you out of Egypt, out of the place of slave-labour, who guided you through this vast and dreadful desert, a land of fiery snakes, scorpions, thirst; who in this waterless place brought you water out of the flinty rock; who in this desert fed you with manna unknown to your ancestors, to humble you and test you and so make your future the happier.
(3) John 6: 51-58
I am the living bread
which has come down from heaven.
Anyone who eats this bread
will live for ever;
and the bread that I shall give
is my flesh, for the life of the world.'Then the Jews started arguing among themselves, 'How can this man give us his flesh to eat?' Jesus replied to them:
In all truth I tell you,
if you do not eat
the flesh of the Son of man
and drink his blood,
you have no life in you.
Anyone who does eat my flesh
and drink my blood
has eternal life,
and I shall raise that person up
on the last day.
For my flesh is real food
and my blood is real drink.
Whoever eats my flesh
and drinks my blood
lives in me
and I live in that person.
As the living Father sent me
and I draw life from the Father,
so whoever eats me
will also draw life from me.
This is the bread
which has come down from heaven;
it is not like the bread our ancestors ate:
they are dead,
but anyone who eats this bread
will live for ever.
(4) Psalm 32: 11
Rejoice in Yahweh, exult all you upright, shout for joy, you honest of heart.
(5) John 19: 34
one of the soldiers pierced his side with a lance; and immediately there came out blood and water.
(6) Luke 1: 45
Yes, blessed is she who believed that the promise made her by the Lord would be fulfilled.’
(7) Luke 1: 48-49
because he has looked upon
the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
all generations will call me blessed,for the Almighty
has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
(8) 1 Corinthians 15: 20-27
In fact, however, Christ has been raised from the dead, as the first–fruits of all who have fallen asleep. As it was by one man that death came, so through one man has come the resurrection of the dead. Just as all die in Adam, so in Christ all will be brought to life; but all of them in their proper order: Christ the first–fruits, and next, at his coming, those who belong to him. After that will come the end, when he will hand over the kingdom to God the Father, having abolished every principality, every ruling force and power. For he is to be king until he has made his enemies his footstool, and the last of the enemies to be done away with is death, for he has put all things under his feet. But when it is said everything is subjected, this obviously cannot include the One who subjected everything to him.
(9) Jeremiah 17: 7-8
‘Blessed is anyone who trusts in Yahweh,
with Yahweh to rely on.
Such a person is like a tree by the waterside
that thrusts its roots to the stream:
when the heat comes it has nothing to fear,
its foliage stays green;
untroubled in a year of drought,
it never stops bearing fruit.
(10) John 15: 9
I have loved you
just as the Father has loved me.
Remain in my love.
I usually don't account dreams, but
this dream was so very real I feel I am supposed
to write about it.
A person had left Shepherds of Christ and there was a
wrecked car, it was tan — all wrecked in, in
the drivers door on the side — it went deeply
in and a little to the back of the door. The
car was Tanish-white and not a model I recognized — The
person was at the Carson house and drove it
under the porch next to the front door and there was
a pole on one side of the car — which held the
porch up and then the house was the old color
of brown — The car was like so tightly put in
there — the car touched the house. The person
got out and I said — "I can't believe it - why
did you do that?" They never went in the
front door or even opened the door of the house
I was somehow able to get the car out of there
I couldn't believe it. The car was right up and touching
the house by the front door.
Next I tried to give a talk and a big
bushy tree was off a little ways with
another lady from the Red Rosary Book with
John under it — socks or pouches hung
low and they were under this bushy tree which
hung like a gigantic big umbrella, but
green with these pouches or socks (white) all over
the tree and hanging down —
I went into the house up in what was
my brother's, who is a priest now, room and I
couldn't see to call John. I quit talking because
everybody ignored me and there was some
noise or distraction blocking me — nobody
cared — they weren't listening outside —
I was absolutely unable to see the numbers
on the phone when in the bedroom — trying
to call John and tell him — nobody was listening
so I went to this upper room, but I couldn't
see the numbers on any phone and couldn't dial —
even though I tried and tried and tried —
I went by the window and tried to call and couldn't
see — it overlooked the yard to the side
where everybody was, I went to the door and
tried and couldn't see, but I tried and tried
and tried —
I had first had to encounter a wrecked
car somebody had wrecked when in the
Movement and showed up to wedge it
under the porch, next to the house touching the
house by the front door — after they did this
atrocity they got out — leaving me to try to
move the wrecked car next to the door (the big
front door)
Next another lady who had got messages
and tried to steal the rosaries from Fr. Carter
and me — now in the Red Rosary Book
and Blue Book 6 showed up
(she had said Fr. Carter and I were from the
devil, 1995 and she took the rosary tapes
and wouldn't give them to us — after over a
year — we got them back)
She stood under the very green bushy
tree with John while I tried to talk to
the first girl who had left and some others,
but no one listened —
I then went to my priest brother's old bed
room upstairs and by the window and door
was unable to use my phone or contact John
to tell him where I was — I was unable to
see the numbers on the phone and I tried and I tried
and couldn't make it work —
Then I went down the stairs and I saw the
face of a girl who was 40 now whose dad had
abandoned the family after many years of
marriage and none of the children knew where
he was. He was in the casket and I saw her
face — so red and crying. The first girl who
left walked around the casket at the
bottom of the steps
the floor was hardwood
there was a fire place and windows high to
the left and far to the right —
the casket was at the bottom of the
steps as I walked down
The girl who had left the Movement, looked
so small and just walked around
the casket in horseshoe fashion
I felt I was to tell this experience to
you —
My inability to talk
My inability to reach anyone
The wrecked car while someone in the
Movement — and they came back to
stick it in a rut, by the door —
unable, I thought to move it
The walking of one, small around a
casket of a man who abandoned
his family and they walked and walked
on 3 sides of the casket in
the open room
The other person that left — missing the
talk — under a tree with John
tying him up — when she said
Fr. Carter and I were from the devil and
4 priests said so and stole the rosary
tapes in the Red Rosary Book with
the rainbow and Blue Book 6
I remember Jesus on December 5, 1996
appearing on the cross at the point of
death His mouth moving — 12 days
later Mary appeared in Clearwater in
Rainbow Color and the Red Rosary
Book left the printer that same
day Mary's image appeared on
the building in Clearwater in
rainbow color —
Jesus said after Mary appeared everyday
for 14 months giving me the rosaries
in Blue Book 6 and the Red Rosary Book —
when He appeared December 5, 1996 and
Mary had also appeared for
2 1/2 years on the 5ths at the Holy Spirit Center
and Holy Cross-Immaculata —
Jesus said December 5, 1996 12 days before
Mary's image appeared in Clearwater
nobody was listening.
If we ignored Jesus about
5 million Priestly Newsletters from
that point would not have reached
the hierarchy and priests of the world.
Take your Private Revelation off and
if you die and only then it may be
published a priest told me —
Put it all in one book like Sr. Faustina
he said.
God has led the world to greater holiness
through the mission Jesus gave to
Fr. Carter and me —
He circulated the Priestly Newsletter
every other month from July, 94
until December, 2000 almost to his death day.
He gave me instructions for continuing
the Newsletter —
The same priest said — rent out
the Clearwater building — there are
billions of buildings on this earth and
have been —
Jesus wants this building for prayer and
we have had it for 9 years —
only by the grace of God, but it is
hard, for very few help us to pay
the bill.
When I got message after message —
other messengers came from the devil
trying to stop Mary's apparitions —
giving messages to Fr. Carter —
he wouldn't listen —
He said "Rita your messages and my
messages are the only valid messages
for the Shepherds of Christ — Jesus told me that —
I always want you to obey me."

Too much light can impair vision
Too much noise can damage ears
The soul cannot be destroyed
if one destroys the body.
The soul of man can be separated
from the body by death of
the body.
The soul is immortal.
The soul lives forever.
God gave us our body.
God gave us our life here
to grow closer to Him.
We are in control of our
actions — we are to become
masters of them —
We hear, we taste, we smell,
we know.
We have intelligence and will.
We must be truthful about ourselves,
our wounded human nature —
this takes courage
We must control ourselves —
control passions —
control food
control alcohol
We were given our faculties to help
us to see more clearly God's
vision, to live by His Plan —
Mary and Jesus called me to be a messenger —
When the world becomes worldly —
St. Thomas said God sends a messenger
I deliver a message
Mary appeared to me —
Mary appeared at Fatima delivering
the message for unity —
love, consecration to Their
2 perfect Hearts
Mary said to reach the priests with
this message with the
Priestly Newsletter
Jesus told us to pray for the priests,
the Church and the world —

2 1/2 years —
Jesus appeared at the point of
death December 5, 1996
I begged and begged God to help me
August 12, 1996
Mary appeared all night, I talked
to the Father —
Excerpt from August 12, 1999
Messenger: On the morning of August 12, 1996, I was told to go to Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. There in those early morning hours Mary appeared all night. I remember the darkness of the Sorrowful Mother Chapel, black, and I only saw the light of Mary. She appeared in that same glorious light of hers, light like fluorescent, but not like that at all because it is like nothing I have ever seen. I cried out to her and begged the Father to please help me to do what They had asked me, and all of us, to do. I felt I prayed as never before.
The next morning of the 13th of August Mary appeared again in the same place for several hours in the same exact setting in that white light in the darkened Sorrowful Mother Chapel in the corner. In the late afternoon of the 13th, I would go to the Sorrowful Mother Chapel again.
The Eucharist was exposed and the whole front of the chapel was covered with a celestial aura and she appeared again. This time the light and the aura were a golden light, almost like a gold glistening veil across the whole front of the chapel in front of the exposed Eucharist and before Mary. I did not want to leave there. I drove to the rosary at Tom's farm, the mikes for the rosary were missing. The younger shepherds had to go to the store to get some mikes. John Weickert was there for the first time on the farm. I asked him to say the 7 Sorrows of Mary. What appeared to me to be a mixed-up situation without the mikes and equipment turned out to be a night of great grace. I didn't know all what was happening....
Mary spoke in the rosary. She gave the following message at the beginning of the mystery of the Visitation.
Mary had been rather silent in the rosaries for much of the year since about February, except for a rosary she delivered April 25, 1996, for the youth at a Junior Shepherds of Christ Meeting.
It was a gift when Mary spoke that evening August 13, 1996, (she would deliver Mary's Message of August 27, 1996, two weeks later on Tom's farm.
Mary's Message is the message she wishes circulated with her image in Florida).
The message that follows is the message Mary delivered August 13, 1996 on the farm after some silence in the rosary. Very soon John Weickert became our President.
end of August 12, 1999
Mary appeared the next day
August 13, 1996
Excerpt from November 18, 1999
Jesus: You see a wooded land covered with spring trees of glorious beauty, you see the fall days of beauteous color, you see the snow-capped trees with a soft white lustrous touch.
And My children, you do not control such things, it is the hand of the Creator that paints the field with a mystical brush of love.
I have given to My messenger the vision of the beauty of a celestial aura that has covered My sanctuary at certain times.
I give to you this vision. Picture the lights of heaven as a celestial veil of little gold dust, as snowflakes so close together and a veil of dense little mystical snowflakes covering the sanctuary where the Lord is in the Eucharist exposed or at the Consecration of the Mass.
See the wind blow and in the spring the petal flowers are blowing as little flakes of snow in a wooded part of the land.
See the little white snowflakes come down creating this aura of mystical beauty.
See the little leaves from Aspen trees blowing down from above as little snowflakes to grace the beautiful land.
Oh My children, I show you the lights of heaven, I describe here the aura which appeared in two of the great visions I gave to My messenger. The last of the three visions in April 1996, and the vision of August 13, 1996, before the rosary at Tom's farm.
Excerpt from August 12, 1999 Daily Message
The next morning of the 13th of August Mary appeared again in the same place for several hours in the same exact setting in that white light in the darkened Sorrowful Mother Chapel in the corner. In the late afternoon of the 13th, I would go to the Sorrowful Mother Chapel again.
The Eucharist was exposed and the whole front of the chapel was covered with a celestial aura and she appeared again. This time the light and the aura were a golden light, almost like a gold glistening veil across the whole front of the chapel in front of the exposed Eucharist and before Mary. I did not want to leave there. I drove to the rosary at Tom's farm...
(end of August 13, 1996 description)
Jesus speaks: I show you a mystical veil of light, looking as little minute golden snowflakes, an aura of mystery, a beauty beyond words, a veil to cover the hard cold reality of a hardened world so straight and hard, almost seemingly unable to bend or surrender. The hard must bend to the soft, the darkness must give way to the light.

Mary appeared to me in China
on the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe
and gave me this message
Mary's image in Clearwater resembled
Our Lady of Guadalupe
December 12, 2007 - Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe
From the Retreat December 12, 2007
R. Mary appeared in China, Indiana while I received this message and she was so beautiful. This is the third visit in 3 days. She appeared every day of the retreat.
Day 1 for 45 minutes at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center.
Day 2 during the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, all through the Mass in China, Indiana.
Day 3 about 4:30 pm after the third day of prayer and this is the message transcribed from a tape.
Mary: I am Mary your Mother and I have come to deliver this message on the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe that my Son Jesus has called this Movement to majorly help to bring to completion the mission that I began at Fatima. And it is displeasing to Him that more have not answered the call for I appeared in Clearwater for all those years. And although they knew that there was something that was so important that God the Father allowed me to come there, there was the resistance to try to make the apparition into what men wanted of it.
The apparition was given there to lead the men more and more to the prayer, the prayer in the prayer manual for the priests, the Church and the world and to the instrument given by my Son to help lead the hierarchy into consecrating their dioceses more and more to the Sacred Heart and to my Immaculate Heart.
It is in great sorrow, for it has affected many of my children in schools and in nursing homes who could have helped, but I come to you today with a joy of my Immaculate Heart to thank you for the fervor with which you have responded to the call of my Son Jesus over all these years. I am Our Lady of Guadalupe, Our Lady of Clearwater, Our Lady of Fatima, Our Lady of Fatima in the Americas.
Mary: I am asking you again to help me with all your heart through your prayer, through your committedness, with your yes to the call of my Son Jesus to serve this Movement as the leaders. Satan will press down more and more and it is in your fervor to do your adoration and your attendance at daily Mass that you will have the weapons to fight for satan does not like the work of the Shepherds of Christ. He will press down and you must fight him. You are at battle my little children and you have answered the call of my Son Jesus.
I am Mary your Mother, please publish this message that others will pray the prayers and tremendous grace will be granted for healing in your families, for the priests, the Church and the world, for the parishes that pray the prayers and spreading the glass from my image face and praying the prayers you will know special favors from Jesus my Son.
As you pray the prayers and you meditate on the promises given to St. Margaret Mary you will know more and more how important it is to your lives, to your families, to the souls of this earth, to the places to consecrate all persons and places to the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart.
In the end the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and my Immaculate Heart will triumph and there will be a certain period of peace granted to the world. You must not lose hope, not for one moment for my Son Jesus is so close to you and guiding you and I am always by your side.
Pray to the Holy Spirit that He will fill you more and more with His grace, that you will see, that you will be enlightened, that you follow the will of the Father, that you will not give into the tactics of satan to divide you or to lead you from your path. Go to the Eucharist and be filled with a greater love for God. This will be your pillar of strength in a cold night when you are tired and weary, Jesus will be with you forever.
I am Mary your Mother, Our Lady of Guadalupe in the Americas speaking to you as Our Lady of Clearwater and Our Lady of Fatima, listen to me and publish this message that others will pray the prayers and help you to spread the Priestly Newsletter and the writings as my Son Jesus has asked you. I love you my children so very much, please answer my call.

Before she appeared I did this
Divine Mercy during
a retreat December 12, 2007
The Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe
December 12, 2007
The Divine Mercy
Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
First. R. During this first mystery of mercy we want to meditate especially on Jesus in the garden, how Jesus knelt in the garden and the Apostles slept. We see that same situation when Jesus hung on the cross and Mary was underneath and John was underneath, but where were the Apostles. God calls us to do things and we have lots of fervor and love for God, but many times satan presses down. Or we can just become tired like the Apostles in the garden, but at any rate we're not where He wants us to be at the right time and He may want us there in order to perform some work. Where were they when Jesus hung on the cross - where were they, Mary was there, John was there. What was going through Peter's mind when he was so focused on himself, and they said to him "You surely were one of them" and he denied that he was.
What happens when we get consumed with fear even worrying about what other people are thinking of us? And we know that Jesus wants us to do something and so the devil can work lots of times in just tapping us on the shoulder and getting us to focus on ourselves and worry what somebody is thinking about us and Jesus is saying "You know I wanted you to do that, you were working to do that, you were all set up to do that" and then something at the last minute gets you flustered and why weren't you there.
God knows all things and we cannot even imagine what that would be to be able to know as God knows and yet He gives us little glimpses and in meditating in the magnificence of God's knowing and loving capacity we can understand more and more about Him a Divine Supreme Being. But we really do have lots of problems when we're down here and we try to limit God in our thinking about how He really is and He says so clearly to us "I AM the I AM" - "I AM the I AM".
One thing that I really think is such a gift in God's Blue Book that He gives to us, is He gives to us His vision, succinctly and clearly, in a few words we can open up God's Blue Book and it can help us to see very clearly where we may have had some difficulty because of the imperfections in the world. I remember too when I use to go to Mass all the time before the messages even became public and I would go to Mass and sometimes I would be thinking about God talking to me and worrying and then going to Mass and saying "Oh as I heard the Word of God read, this is exactly how Jesus is talking to me. There was that same truth that is in the Blue Book messages that was in the scriptures, that same vision, the same reality, the vision of the Father.
And so in opening up the scriptures we can be confused sometimes because of all the different visions that are in the world, some of them could be right, but so many of them can be very tainted and wrong, and so therefore we can open up the scriptures in just reading a little bit or recalling the story of what is said about the Good Shepherd or the blind man — we can be brought back to that vision of God in sending the priestly newsletter to the far ends of the earth to all the hierarchy. It is in trying to send them like a kiss of our love rooted firmly in the vision of the Father based on the scriptures, the wisdom of the saints, the writings of the popes, and the very renowned theologians that it is right on, not right or not left but really purely in the vision of the Father.
And so when we begin with a quote that says "I am the Good Shepherd and the Good Shepherd lays down His life for His flock" and then we know that it says in scriptures that they hear the voice of the Good Shepherd and they follow him, that because we've sent the newsletter to all the hierarchy and they have written back to us, we know that they're hearing the voice of the Good Shepherd and that beautiful presentation, the instrument as Jesus calls it, that we have sent to the hierarchy and to a total of, many times, 80,000 priests. We've been able to send this almost every other month for over a year now and I think to the tune of 8 or 9 newsletters which is a lot to send that with that frequency and to like hammer down the message of Our Lady of Fatima and consecrating our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary firmly rooted in the Eucharist and holiness and magnificence of the priesthood in the Church.
I know that in a 1,800,000 newsletters that we have sent just recently, that we must have impacted many of our priests and hierarchy for them to write such lengthy letters back to us and tell us how pleased they are and especially of our prayers that we pray for them. During this retreat we pray for our priests, the Church and the world. We pray especially this day on the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe. We see Our Lady as Our Lady of Guadalupe bringing forth her children of light, our Spiritual Mother, children of the Church.
We are a big part of this because Mary said at Fatima that as we give our hearts more and more to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary we will know peace in our hearts and in the world. It is so beautiful to ponder the words of the Sacred Heart of Jesus given to St. Margaret Mary about how Jesus will write our names in His Heart and there will be peace in our homes from spreading this devotion and the priests can touch the most harden hearts. The promises are so beautiful but it is the reality - it is the whole story is it not, the story of how much Jesus loves us that He did sweat His Blood in the garden, He sweat His Blood and we are kind of blind because we do a lot of things, a lot of times, that really work against His plan.
And yet He loves us so much, even Peter, who was not under the cross, who slept in the garden, who wanted to build some tents, who wanted to be washed all over. In His gentle and tender love that Jesus has for us, He condones so many of our stupidities and returns to us even greater grace when we humbly tell Him how much we truly love Him. Oh pure and gentle loving Heart of Jesus as we meditate on this particular mystery please outpour Your mercy for the souls of this earth especially Your grace to the souls that could be lost and give us the capability to do the work that You have called us to.
We pray oh precious God, oh heavenly Father, for the sake of souls, we love You, for our priests, for our Church, for our children, for all of our families and friends. On this special Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, please help us God, help us to do the work that You have called us to do.
1. For the sake of His sorrow Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.

10. For the sake of His sorrow Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your dearly beloved Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.
Second. R. In this second mystery of Jesus' passion, we see the body of a man so perfect and beautiful, a young man, a man in His 30's, early 30's - so beautiful the body of Jesus, so beautiful the Heart of Jesus, so consumed with love for you and me that He allowed them to whip Him at the pillar. The Divine Almighty Son of God with all the power could have stopped this at any moment and yet because of His love for souls He stood at the pillar and they whipped Him and they tore His flesh.
In the world today we see the focus on the body and yet the more that I know that God is calling me to do this, the more I can't even believe sometimes what I see in the airports in the different places. And I don't want people to lustfully crave the flesh and to teach others by the display of this nudity and other allurements on magazine stands and in other places.
It is for this that I pray in this mystery that God will give to men on this earth the light to be able to see the beauty in the human body and its purpose to help them to get to heaven. Think about this, think of how they whipped the precious flesh of Jesus and He allowed this. God help us to be docile and humble, to realize how precious indeed every soul is to You, that Your love for them so great that You withstood a terrible battering at the pillar. Just help us to do this mission, God - for our beloved priests, for the Church and the sake of souls. We love You and thank You.

Third. R. You know its really interesting the senses, think of the senses and how important the head is - the head that we see with our eyes, and we hear with our ears and we taste with our mouth. The head and the face is really important. It is really important because it houses the brain and we think with our brain. Jesus is the head of the Church and we are the body. The more that we realize how important it is that He is the head rather than just kind of thinking about what's going on with us but recognizing that headship - the mystical body of Christ.
Adam was the head - from him came the seed, all of us came from Adam's seed. And Christ the head of the Church, the head of the mystical body is so important in our spiritual life. Through one man's sin we all suffered the effects of original sin (but Mary). Christ the Divine Almighty God, the head of the mystical body, the Church, comes to outpour His life to us, His sharing in His Divine life. From the seed of Adam we received life and from the gift of Christ, head of the mystical body (the Church). As we are baptized and become members of His Church, we received a special sharing in His life and the Father, Son and Holy Spirit dwell within us. Jesus is the Savior of the human race.
Now let us think about Christ in His passion. Eternal Father I offer you the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity - That's really important isn't it? That it is the sacrifice of God Himself that is offered in the sacrifice of Calvary. Eternal Father I offer you the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity — the Sacrifice is the Sacrifice of the Divine Almighty God, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.
In the Mass, it is the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present in our lives as members as the mystical body of Christ. Our sacrifice as we offer everything that we do as members of the mystical body of Christ united to the Mass, to the Sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present, everything that we do, can help in the work of redemption - the fact that I am here, the fact that I am driving home, the fact that I am sleeping, the fact that I am eating. But how few really realize what it is to be a member of the mystical body of Christ and how deeply connected we are to Christ our head, how we receive this special sharing in His Divine life and how we can be a great strength to the other people of the world just because we are members of His mystical body and this is one of the missions that God has asked me to write about and to talk about — is that, members of the mystical body of Christ will realize how every breath that we take can be helping in this work of redemption for our beloved brothers that are in the world.
To me it's depth, it's depth of knowing deeper into the mystery, it's depth of realizing more how precious it is to be this member of the mystical body of Christ, how we have this great capacity to be able to help others by our very life lived as members of the mystical body of Christ united to Christ so deeply as our head that as we spread the Mass Book and all of the information that was given over and over again on the 13ths, it may seem like a little thing to some people, sort of like when Fr. Carter wrote His Spirituality Handbook and His Tell My People messages.
I didn't understand the intricacies and the depths and the purpose that God was giving to us this vision and 13 years ago, it is this vision that I impart to you as one that carries the vision out for Fr. Carter and for the Shepherds of Christ Movement. It is the frustration to know more and more the purpose of Our Lady's message at Fatima and yet to realize the rejection of the messages having note worthy by so many and the striving in my soul planted there from these gifts given, to know how majorly we are helping to bring to completion the mission that she began at Fatima.
Today in this mystery I want us to meditate on the head of Christ, how He showed us that it was thorns that they pounded into His head that made Him bleed, that disfigured His precious scalp and head and yet by the saving blood that Christ shed we are saved. In our sufferings, our daily sufferings of trying to do what God is calling us to, in the joy within our hearts of realizing how a family is formed that is very united and has precious unique gifts that may not even be in other groups in the world.
I ask you to look at the head of Christ and to say "For love of me Christ allowed them to pound into His head a sharp crown of piercing thorns." In His omnipotence, in all of His Might, His power He endured this - looking like He was helpless as they ridiculed Him and spit on Him, as they mocked Him. There's nothing worse than having somebody mock us, is there? The Divine Almighty God allowed human creatures to mock Him as His saving Blood came forth from His precious head.
I know that I am not perfect by a long sense in all the ways that I have tried to do this work, but God has given to me the vision to not give up no matter what, to have the strength and the love for souls that nothing else makes sense to me, having called me to do this. But He has called all of you to help, and although I may carry the responsibility, He's called us all to be team players.
So Peter was not there under the cross. Peter was sleeping in the garden but He still made Peter the head of the Church - "upon this rock I will build my church", in all of our imperfections. It is in our love that we can do the greatest work for He shows us more than anything, love and that He endured the crown that led to blood being shed for you and me.
1. For the sake of His sorrow Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
2. For the sake of His sorrow Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.Oh God how, how precious indeed are the gifts that You give to me and the human race and You are not even recognized today. When we ponder how You suffered in hanging on the cross, some may say "Well how could they have hung Jesus on the cross?" And yet we can say today - how can we treat each other the way that we do or murder a baby in the womb, God showed us a lot of things when He walked the earth and the more we meditate on this the more the Holy Spirit will bring to light those mysteries in which He reveals Himself so profoundly to us, not in words and writings, but written in our soul in the depth of His love for us. How can we ever measure that?

And I can hear in that, that little tiny voice "You did it grandma." We can do some of the most profound things with the might of God but it takes a heart that is consumed with love that is pumped strong with His love alive in us. Never, never, never underestimate what we can do when God is so one with us. And His love is what empowers us and all of our imperfections and all of the things that satan can say, we know the truth, we try and we try and we smile and we frown and we garble and we do all these things and yet the propelling force within us is how deeply He has filled us with so much love.

Fifth. R. And I think of what St. Paul says - "I have been crucified with Christ but is no longer I who live but He who lives in me." - and it is in this that we must recognize that God has outpoured His abundant grace in us, that He has filled us more and more with His life, that we are saturated with His life alive in us.
