Excerpt from the Spirituality of Fatima
by Father Edward Carter, S.J. 
         
October 13, 1917
               
In her message that day, Our Blessed Mother told the children:
  
    
          I am the Lady of the Rosary. I
      have come to warn the faithful to amend their lives and to ask pardon for
      their sins. They must not offend Our Lord any more, for He is already too
      grievously offended by the sins of men. People must say the Rosary. Let
      them continue saying it every day.(17)
    
  
  NOTE:
  17. For background material on Fatima, I am particularly
  indebted to 
      Our Lady of Fatima's Peace Plan from Heaven (Rockford:
  TAN

"I wish to share with you part of a message which
  Jesus gave us on October 13, 1994. The message tells us about the expansion of
  the Shepherds of Christ movement:     'My
  beloved priest-companion, today I come to you with another mission. I am

  giving you this message on this day, the 77th Anniversary of the Great
  Apparition at Fatima, because of the close connection between the Shepherds of
  Christ movement and the Fatima message. The Fatima message is centered in
  devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart, especially in consecration to Our
  Hearts. Shepherds of Christ Ministries is also centered in devotion to Our
  Hearts. I will use Shepherds of Christ Ministries as a great instrument in
  helping to bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My

Rosaries from the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary
   
This rosary was received on Sunday, October the
13th, 1996 at a International Shepherds of Christ
Associates Meeting at Tom Arlinghaus's farm in Kentucky. The rosary was led by
Fr. Edward J. Carter S.J., spiritual director of Shepherds of Christ Ministries.
The meditations and messages were given to Rita Ring during the rosary. This
rosary was received live and transcribed from the recording. This live recording
can be obtained by writing Shepherds of Christ Publications. All of these
meditations have been discerned by Fr. Edward J. Carter S.J.

  THE GLORIOUS MYSTERIES
The Resurrection
  - Jesus has told us how He is the vine and we are the
    branches. We must stay rooted in Him so that His life flows through us. We
    cannot become disconnected from the vine. We are one, joined with Him.
  
- Hail Mary...
  
- Jesus speaks: 
 I am calling you, My special apostles, to this farm on
    this day of October 13th, 1996. I will fill your hearts with the fire of My
    love, and the fire of this love will spread across the earth and many hearts
    will know My love and be touched through you. Open wide your heart during
    this rosary that I may speak to you and tell you of My burning love for you.
    I am giving to you an abundant sharing in My life. Open your heart. I am knocking at the door of your heart. You must not close your
    heart. Open wide that I can come in and fill you with My divine love. your heart. I am knocking at the door of your heart. You must not close your
    heart. Open wide that I can come in and fill you with My divine love.
- Oh, My beloved Jesus, I see You glistening and covered in
    white. I know that You rose on the third day and that there is such glory in
    the resurrection. My life is a constant death and resurrection as I live in
    You.
  
- Focus on the body of a man hanging on the cross. You see
    this vividly before your eyes-a man covered with blood, His head crowned
    with thorns. He is beaten and withered. This is the Almighty God, Jesus
    Christ, the Son of God, who came and gave Himself for love of us. Focus on
    this picture in your mind. Make it so clear as if you were there, as if you
    are seeing this with your eyes, at this moment, this man on the cross, with
    flesh covered with blood. Jesus died. He was locked in a tomb for three
    days. Now see next to this picture of this man the glorified body of Jesus,
    His glorified wounds, as He comes forth from the tomb. The Almighty God, our
    beloved and loving Jesus-He is alive, He is with us this day. He lives in us
    in a special way. When we are baptized and in the state of grace, God is
    alive within us and He shares with us His divine life. We are Christ to one
    another for He is alive in us.
 When I talk to you, I am seeing the Jesus that is alive
    inside of you. We are all gathered as one body. We see Jesus. We see Him
    dead on the cross. This is how much that He loved us. Do we not know that He
    died for us because of this great love, that He wants us to be one body? I
    see the vine and the branches and I see how they are so connected that the
    life and the fluid runs through the vine to the branches-it's all one. We
    are one in Him. He has given us a sharing in His divine life. Look at us,
    how separate we are with each other, how we hold ourselves at arm's length
    and separate ourselves from one another. We are called in the Shepherds of
    Christ Movement to be one flock with one shepherd.
 The Almighty God is alive and He lives in us. I went to
    Mass and Communion this morning and I received the Body of Christ; you
    receive the Body of Christ. He gives to us His life. He gives to us Himself.
    We must strive in this Movement to be one, to live this consecration in our
    lives that we are one with each other, that we put aside all of the
    tauntings by the devil to divide us, that we realize that division is from
    Satan. As we march across this United States and this world, we will carry
    the fire of His love, alive inside of us, for He is alive and He lives
    within our hearts. We are called to this special mission as His apostles to
    carry this message, this message of His love to the world.
 Oh, Jesus, how tenderly I love you. You are alive in my
    very being. You are all that I live for and I want to carry this message out
    to the world for you have delivered this message with such love. You are so
    good. Fill our hearts with the fire of Your love and give us Your abundant
    grace that we will have the courage to carry this message to the ends of the
    earth. And there was darkness. I see the darkness in the night, but the
    light steals across the sky and the fire of His love spreads across this
    earth as His life lives in us and many are touched by the fire of His love.
 Song: Spirit Song
- We are not like the world, we see this world and it is
    Godless. In many cases the world has turned away from God. It is at Fatima
    that Mary said that we must stop offending God. She has given to us the
    peace plan that we will have peace on this earth-it is in consecrating our
    hearts. She said until a sufficient number have consecrated their hearts to
    the Hearts of Jesus and Mary we will not have peace in the world. She said
    we must pray the rosary, that we must observe the First Saturday devotion,
    that we must make reparation to Their Hearts. Why-why do we not do what Mary
    is asking us to do. It is so simple?
  
- Mary appeared at Fatima in July, 1917 and she told the
    children, "You have seen hell, where the souls of poor sinners go. To
    save them God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate
    Heart. If people do what I tell you, many souls will be saved and there will
    be peace. The war (World War I then raging) is going to end, but if people
    do not stop offending God, another and worse one will begin in the reign of
    Pius XI. When you shall see a night illuminated by an unknown light (January
    2, 1938) know that this is a great sign that God gives you that He is going
    to punish the world for its many crimes by means of war, hunger and
    persecution of the Church and the Holy Father."1
 Mary has appeared to me, almost every day from July the
    5th of 1994 until September the 5th of 1995-14 months-this same cry that
    came from our Heavenly Mother at Fatima, that we must quit offending God,
    that we must do what she is telling us to do. This is the peace plan. He is
    alive and He lives in us. We are being asked to go into the world and to
    spread His love to the far corners of the earth.
- He gives to us His life in the Eucharist. Who are we that
    the Almighty God gives to us, human persons, a sharing in His Divine Life.
    He is treated with such indifference and such neglect. If we knew, if we
    could see, the glories of the Almighty God, but we are so blind in our
    sight. We do not see and we do not hear. We must pray for the grace that we
    will see, that we will be the apostles that He is calling to carry this
    message out to the world.
  
- He rose from the dead and He appeared to the apostles. We
    see Thomas-he did not believe. How are we this day? Do we believe? The
    Almighty God is truly present in His Divinity and humanity in the Holy
    Eucharist and He is outpouring His grace, His life to us. Do we believe? Do
    we believe that He is truly present and that He is giving Himself to us this
    day? He is here! He is truly present in the Eucharist and He is alive in our
    hearts!
  
- He laments and laments how He is treated as a dead object.
    He is ignored in the Tabernacle.
 The Almighty God is here. We spend all this money and go to concerts, go to
    football games, all this time in recreation and the Almighty God is ignored.
    Mary appeared in 1917 and said that we must stop offending God. Look at our
    world. He has called us in the Shepherds of Christ Movement and is giving to
    us abundant grace that we will grow more and more in our relationship with
    Him and we will be His leaders going into this world carrying the fire of
    His love to the far corners of the earth.
 He is alive. He says, I am the Way, the Truth and the
    Life and I am with you this day. Open your eyes and see. Open your hearts
    and live for I AM the Way, the Truth and the Life.
Our Lord Ascends Into Heaven
  - He took His apostles out to the place of His Ascension and
    He raised His arms and He ascended into heaven. Do we see the glories of
    these mysteries, that the Almighty God rose from the dead, that He ascended
    into heaven? We do not see the glory. We are so focused on the details in
    our lives. We see with such limited vision. The Almighty God is alive and He
    is here and He is calling us. Each one of us has been called to this farm,
    this day, for He knew you would answer this calling. He knew that in your
    heart you want the deepest love affair with Him, that you want to be one
    with Him. He has called you as His apostles to carry out His love to the
    world, to light up the darkness with His life alive within us.
  
- We look out and we see the beauty of this day, with the sun
    in the sky and the light, and all the colors in the trees. We see the life in each blade of grass and
    in each leaf on the tree and tonight the darkness will cover this earth and
    although the trees and the leaves are still there, and this beautiful river,
    we will not be able to see with this clarity. The earth this day is covered
    with darkness for many souls have cut themselves off from the vine. They are
    withering and dying in their hearts. He is calling us and giving us abundant
    grace that we will be one in Him, that He will live in us, and as we live on
    this earth, He will touch others through us. This is a tremendous calling
    from the Almighty God-that we have been chosen and called and given this
    grace to be so close to Him. and all the colors in the trees. We see the life in each blade of grass and
    in each leaf on the tree and tonight the darkness will cover this earth and
    although the trees and the leaves are still there, and this beautiful river,
    we will not be able to see with this clarity. The earth this day is covered
    with darkness for many souls have cut themselves off from the vine. They are
    withering and dying in their hearts. He is calling us and giving us abundant
    grace that we will be one in Him, that He will live in us, and as we live on
    this earth, He will touch others through us. This is a tremendous calling
    from the Almighty God-that we have been chosen and called and given this
    grace to be so close to Him.

- Hail Mary...
  
- On Ascension Thursday, 1995, I went through such an
    experience. First, Jesus took me to the height of heaven and I experienced
    such ecstasy. I was at church and later that day when I went home I was
    given great anguish and suffering and He called out, "I am alive, I am
    alive, I am alive!" and He said that He wanted Fr. Carter in the
    Shepherds of Christ Movement to reach the souls on this earth with the fire
    of His love. It was in such pain and suffering that I was buckled over and
    hearing the Almighty God call out, "I am alive, I am alive, I am
    alive". How do we treat Jesus? Do we treat Him as if He is alive? Do we
    love Him with all our heart, our whole soul and our whole being? Do you hear
    the laments of our beloved Savior, the Almighty God, who gave Himself and
    died on the cross? He is alive. He wants this burning love affair with us.
    Many of the Masses, many of our prayers, are said with lack of emotion in
    our hearts. He wants us to love Him with the deepest burning love, not to go
    through the motions. Every prayer is a love affair with our beloved Savior.
    The Rosary we sing-(the Rosary song), and He wants us to say from our heart,
    the bottom of our heart, "Jesus, we love You. Mary, we love you. Oh,
    the Rosary, the Rosary, is the love of Their Two Hearts. Oh the Rosary, the
    Rosary, is the love of Their Two Hearts."
 In the September 10th rosary that we circulated to you,
    Jesus laments how He does not receive a drop of heartfelt love from many of
    His beloved religious that He has chosen and loves so much. This is why He
    has called us in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, to pray, to pray for His
    beloved religious. He loves them so much and He wants, He wants this burning
    love from them, His chosen ones. We are gathered here for this reason-to
    realize that the Almighty God really is talking to us, that He has called
    us, that this is an important mission, that we need to pray so fervently for
    our priests and our religious, that this is His instrument, the Shepherds of
    Christ Movement, to help in the renewal of the Church and the world.
- Jesus speaks:  
 I am alive, I am alive, I am alive, and I live in your
    heart. Open your heart and let Me come inside of you. I want to touch My
    beloved souls this day. Will you say "yes" to this calling? Will
    you go to the ends of the earth and spread this movement? Will you pray,
    pray fervently for this intention: to lead the religious to the fires of
    love, found in My Most Sacred Heart?
- Song: Spirit Song
 Jesus speaks:
 I am alive, I am alive, I am alive, and I live in your
    hearts.
 Messenger:
 Jesus no longer walks this earth, but He is alive and He
    lives in us.
- Song: "Come Unto Me All Who Are
    Weary.."
 Jesus speaks:
 I am alive, I am alive, I am alive,
    and I am the Almighty God, all powerful. You see with such limited vision.
    You must surrender and let go and let Me run your life. You are holding on,
    My beloved ones. You must realize that I am all powerful, all mighty, and
    that I am guarding you and I am with you in a special way this day.
- Jesus speaks:
 Carry My light into the darkness.
 Messenger:
 And the light came across the dark sky and many were
    touched with the fire of His love.
 Because you answered this call, the call to be His
    apostle, to pray for the priests, to help spread the consecration as Our
    Lady has asked us at Fatima. We will not have peace in the world until our
    hearts are filled with love, and she says until a sufficient number have
    consecrated their hearts to the hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have
    peace. This is the good news. As the Movement spreads across this earth, as
    hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will have the
    peace that Our Lady has promised at Fatima but we must do as she has told us
    to do. We must consecrate our hearts and spread this to the world. We must
    pray the rosary, observe the First Saturday devotion, and make reparation to
    Their Hearts.
The Descent of the Holy Spirit Upon the Apostles
  - "When Pentecost day came round, they had all met
    together, when suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of a violent wind
    which filled the entire house in which they were sitting; and there appeared
    to them tongues as of fire; these separated and came to rest on the head of
    each of them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak
    different languages as the Spirit gave them power to express
    themselves." (Acts 2: 1-4)2
  
- Jesus speaks:
 I call you, I call you, I call you, My beloved apostles.
    I call you to go out to the ends of the earth and to preach My love. I am
    longing and thirsting for My beloved souls to come to Me. Bring to Me the
    souls, the souls I love. I am Jesus, do you hear this call? Will you bring
    to Me the souls of My loved ones? Will you pray for the priests and the
    religious, for it is through them that I will feed the hungry souls?
 Messenger:
 Look at the priest, see the priest in the Mass, the
    priest that consecrates the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of
    Christ. He gives to us the Body and Blood of Christ. See Jesus in the
    priest, giving us His Body. Each one of us go to the communion rail and God
    gives to us Himself. We are one in Him. Jesus has told me how we sit in
    church, like stiffs, all separate, going through the motions. This is not
    love! He wants heartfelt love in our hearts, to realize that the Almighty
    God, in the greatest act of love gave Himself as a sacrifice on the cross
    and this sacrifice is sacramentally made present in every Mass. The Mass is
    a love affair with God. The deepest union with Him is to give ourselves to
    Mary, for we are sinners. She is the pure and sinless one. We give ourselves
    to Mary and we go to Him in her pure and sinless heart, to the very depth of
    His Heart.
 He is alive and we are the apostles that must carry this
    life into the world in our hearts. He is operating through us. Will we say "yes"? Do we see
    the world, do we see the suffering children, do we see the babies that are
    murdered in the wombs of their mother, do we see what the children are being
    fed on television..but we hold back our tongues about the love of God? When
    I began to receive these messages, for six weeks before, constantly I heard,
    "Feed the hungry, feed the hungry!" I prayed and I prayed and I
    prayed to know His will. In September of 1991, He called out to me, for six
    weeks, constantly, " Feed the hungry!" The world is starving for
    the love of God! Let us feed the hungry with this love of God. Let us pray
    for the priests for He gives us them. hearts. He is operating through us. Will we say "yes"? Do we see
    the world, do we see the suffering children, do we see the babies that are
    murdered in the wombs of their mother, do we see what the children are being
    fed on television..but we hold back our tongues about the love of God? When
    I began to receive these messages, for six weeks before, constantly I heard,
    "Feed the hungry, feed the hungry!" I prayed and I prayed and I
    prayed to know His will. In September of 1991, He called out to me, for six
    weeks, constantly, " Feed the hungry!" The world is starving for
    the love of God! Let us feed the hungry with this love of God. Let us pray
    for the priests for He gives us them.
- We encounter Christ through the sacraments. His life is
    outpoured in the Mass. Grace is outpoured in part according to the
    disposition of the person offering sacrifice. As we become one in Their
    Hearts, as the priest becomes one in Their Hearts, consecrated to the Hearts
    of Jesus and Mary, an immense amount of grace is released on the earth. It
    is through this that many souls will know God, that many souls will be
    saved. We help in the act of redemption. We must spread this Movement to the
    far corners of the earth. It is as Mary said: we must consecrate our hearts
    to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. This is the key-Mary's heart is the gateway
    to going to the deepest chamber of the Heart of Christ.
  
- We see how Peter denied Christ. We see how the apostles
    were afraid. We see Thomas did not believe. We see them stumble and fall and
    run away, and then we see them, after the Holy Spirit descended upon them.
    They went out into the world and thousands were converted. They were filled
    with the fire of God's love. Let us, God, be filled with the fire of Your
    love.
 Dear Holy Spirit, give us this fearlessness to go into
    this darkened world and to carry the light, to carry the messages of Your
    burning love to the souls that are starving and are longing to be fed.
- Song: Lady of Fatima
 Jesus speaks:
 I am alive, I am alive, I am alive, and I live in you.
    Open your heart that I may touch so many of My beloved souls through you. I
    am Jesus. Will you say "yes", My beloved apostles?
- Look into the eyes of the children that are suffering this
    day. Mary has sent us on a special mission to spread the rosaries and the
    consecration to the children in the schools. Do you see the children, the
    children in the schools today that are hard in their hearts, the children
    that are suffering, that do not know the love of God? Mary is giving us
    special help to spread these rosaries in the schools. She wants this all
    over the United States. For nine months Mary asked me to spread the rosary
    and the consecration to the children. We are the apostles that He is sending
    into the world this day. This is what Mary and Jesus are asking us to do. It
    is so little-to spread these rosaries and consecrations to the schools, but
    Mary said at Fatima we will not have peace in the world until we do what she
    has told us to do. The Shepherds of Christ Movement is a great part of the
    completion of the Fatima message. These rosaries are a big part of the
    completion of the Fatima message. We must carry these rosaries to our
    children in the schools.
  
- Satan presses down on us and tries to stop us. The pressure
    that has gone on just to have this today is unbelievable, how Satan can try
    to stop this. Look at the Fatima message, how it has been blocked. Why, why,
    why are not we paying attention to this Fatima message that Mary gave in
    1917? It is the devil that has blocked this message. This is a major part of
    the completion of the Fatima message so we will be met with such resistance.
    Jesus, Jesus wants us to bring Him souls. So many souls would be saved
    through the First Saturday devotion. Why, why do we not talk about the
    Fatima message like we should-about praying the rosary and consecrating our
    hearts, and the First Saturday devotion, and making reparation to the Hearts
    of Jesus and Mary? It is so simple but the devil has blocked this. If we
    want peace we should do what Mary has told us for she is the Queen of Peace
    and the peace of the world has been entrusted to her. We are the apostles.
    We are being sent into the world to carry this message.
  
- Hail Mary...

The Assumption of Our Lady Into Heaven
  - We see Mary taken body and soul into heaven. We live here,
    we struggle everyday with so many struggles. We are so focused on the daily
    events. We do not realize that soon we too will go to heaven, if we love and
    serve the Lord, if we love and serve God. The world has turned Godless to a
    large degree. Mary appeared to me every day, except for a few days, for
    fourteen months and begged and pleaded that we spread the love of her Son to
    this world, that we spread these rosaries to the world, that we go to the
    children with the rosaries and the consecrations. It is so hard to see our
    heavenly Mother and to know what she is saying and to not do more. Jesus and
    Mary have called you here this day. You have been chosen by them. This is
    the message that they wish to deliver to you, that many souls are suffering
    and going to hell. Over and over again I heard Our Lady call out,
    "Please, please the souls are dropping into hell like rain. You must go
    out to the world and spread the love of my Son."
  
- On October 13th, Mary said, "I am the Lady of the
    Rosary. I have come to warn the faithful to amend their lives and to ask
    pardon for their sins. They must not offend Our Lord anymore for He is
    already too grievously offended by the sins of men. People must say the
    rosary. Let them continue saying it every day."3
    This is a great gift that God has given to us-rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
    For in the rosary this week Jesus said that the times ahead will be very
    dark and unless we discipline our minds by praying the rosary all through
    the day, it will be very hard for us when these dark days come. Mary is our
    heavenly Mother. She was taken into heaven but she is very much with us. She
    has told us what we must do. We must pray the rosary. She is our heavenly
    Mother. As a mother that tells a child what to eat and how to dress, Mary is
    telling us this: that we must try to pray 15 decades of the rosary every day
    for the times ahead will be dark and we need to have disciplined thoughts.
    In praying the rosary, our thoughts become disciplined. We are meditating on
    the lives of Jesus and Mary. gift that God has given to us-rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

- Hail Mary...
  
- I saw a documentary on Fatima and in this documentary, Mary
    appeared to the three children and then they showed the events of World War
    II. The bodies were being thrown on a heap. And it just about tore my
    insides apart because I identified so much with watching Mary appear and
    then nobody listened or not a lot of people listened and World War II
    happened and so many people were killed. John brought a statue and asked me
    to read this, "One day during World War II, a group of soldiers
    wondered into a small French village which had been badly bombed. They stood
    in the village square and looked at the desolation around them. Nearly
    everything seemed battered and broken. Suddenly, one of the soldiers noticed
    something interesting close by on the ground. It looked like a statue. There
    were cracks and chips in it and several pieces were missing. It was badly
    damaged. A few of the soldiers stood it up right. Immediately they knew that
    it was a statue of Jesus. The men began to look for the missing parts. They
    put them together as best as they could and then they set the statue on a
    pedestal that was still standing, but the hands were missing. The men looked
    very carefully for the hands, but they were no where to be found. When the
    men were about to give up, one of them said he knew exactly what to do. He
    made a rough sign and hung it over the arms of the statue. The sign read, 'I
    have no hands but yours.'"
  
- Jesus gave me a message that we are His hands and we are
    His Heart beating in this world. We must truly be real lovers, lovers living
    in this world loving one another, one with each other. It is in going to the
    pure heart of Mary, that we will unite in this deep love affair with Jesus.
  
- Jesus speaks:
 You are My hands. You are My Heart beating in this world.
    My beloved apostles, will you say "yes"? Will you go into the
    world? Will you carry my light in the darkness? Will you tell the children
    who are suffering how I love them? Will you go to the nursing homes and tell
    the elderly how I am longing to be with them, to talk to them, to hear the
    words from their lips that they love Me? You are My apostles of love.
 Messenger:
 This is the anniversary of the sixth apparition at Fatima.
    Mary appeared every day for fourteen months to me and delivered these
    rosaries. That is all she kept saying: that we must lead others to the love
    of her Son, Jesus. The message is so simple. It is love God and love one
    another. All the fanciness and the frills! Why can we not live this message
    which is the message of love God and love each other.
- We are so focused on the things of this earth and our
    heavenly Mother has appeared so many times and told us what we must do-she
    made it so clear at Fatima. Do we think our Blessed Mother will change, that
    she will change her peace plan? We must, we must carry this message into the
    world. We must do what Jesus and Mary are asking us to do.
  
- Hail Mary...
  
- Hail Mary...
  
- Hail Mary...
The Coronation of Our Lady
  - Mary speaks:
 I am Our Lady of the Holy Rosary. I am asking you this
    day to carry these rosaries into this world. It is through the rosary that
    you will have peace in your hearts. My little children, you must learn to
    discipline your thoughts. You must come to Our Hearts and meditate on Our
    lives. Our lives will live in your life as you meditate on the mysteries of
    the rosary.
- Mary speaks:
 There is a time, a time of struggle. There is a time of
      joy. There is a time when the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign. The time
      for these things is near at hand. My little children, I have called you on
      this October 13th, 1996. I have called you to go into this world and to
      carry the rosary as your weapon against Satan. It is through the rosary
      and the scapular that I will save this world. I am Mary, your Mother. I am
      Our Lady of the Holy Rosary.  
- We see the angel appear to Mary and ask her to be the Mother of God.
      This is the Father's plan-that Mary would be the Mother of God, and we see
      Mary as crowned Queen of Heaven and Earth. Do we see the plan of the
      Father unfold in our lives? That our lives are so important to help in the
      salvation of many? That He is truly calling us to be apostles to carry His
      love, His light, into the dark world?
    
- Jesus speaks:
 I am with you in a special way, My beloved apostles. I
      am calling you this day. This is an urgent call. You must go into the
      world and carry My messages of love to the souls that are hungry and
      suffering and in pain.
- Think vividly of the moment of death. There is a soul at this moment on
      the edge of death. How did they live their life? Think of the world today.
      Is the world living according to the way that God has told us that we must
      live? He told us that we must love God and love one another. There is a
      soul at this moment on the edge of death. Where will this soul go? Did the
      soul love God? Did it matter about his clothes and his house and all his
      riches? I heard Mary, Our Mother, call out time and time and time again
      about the souls that were going into hell. It is like the Fatima
      documentary-she called and people did not heed what she said and there was
      World War II. Mary does not appear as she once appeared and she has ceased
      giving messages as she once did. She still gives messages but they are not
      as many. She says that we are not listening to the messages that she has
      given and that she cannot hold back the hand of her Son any longer.
    
- This is the good news: if we do what Mary tells us at Fatima, we will
      have peace. There will be the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of
      her Immaculate Heart in which souls will fervently love Jesus with the
      greatest love. Her plan is so simple but Satan has blocked this plan.
      Satan has blocked these rosary messages and meditations. We must pray that
      we can circulate the messages of Jesus and Mary to the world that is
      hungry and in need of help.
    
- One day soon we will be with God in heaven, forever and ever.
    
- Wrapped in the embrace of the Almighty God for all eternity. Heaven is a
      place of love for the Almighty God is love. We will be satisfied. We will
      know love. We will be at peace.
 But, hell is a place where there is no love, there is no community, there
      is isolation, there is longing for God for all eternity.
 He is alive, He is alive and He is with us this day. You must spread this
      message to the ends of the earth.
- Mary speaks:
 My little children, I call you children because you are
      My children, willful in your ways. I have called to you to pray My rosary
      and to spread the rosary to the hurting children in this world. I am
      asking you on this special day that you carry the rosary to as many souls
      as possible. I will aid you in all efforts to spread the rosaries to the
      world. Read these meditations to the elderly in the Nursing Homes, teach
      them about the power of the rosary, bring the rosary to the children, tell
      them about our lives, about our love for them.
 I am Mary, your Mother, I am Our Lady of the Holy
      Rosary.
- Song: The Rosary
Ending Message:
  Jesus speaks:
      How tenderly I love you, My beloved ones. I am Jesus. I
  have called you this day for this special meeting. I have called you, My
  apostles. Will you go into the darkness? Will you spread the message of My
  love? Will you carry the rosary into the world? Will you touch the hearts of
  those that are hurting and in pain? Will you be My apostles of love? I am
  calling you to love God and to love one another, to be one in your hearts, to
  put aside all hatred and bitterness within your heart, to not give into the
  tauntings of Satan to divide you, to always operate in love, to focus on God.
  Let your hearts be filled with love.
  Glory be...
  "My dear friends, let us love each other,
  since love is from God and everyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.
  Whoever fails to love does not know God, because God is love." (1 John 4:
  7-8)4
