Messenger:           The more we are one in the
                                Hearts of Jesus and Mary
                                through consecration
                                the more deeply we unite
                                as members of the
                                body of Christ — living
                                out our baptismal commitment.

                            To consecrate means to make holy —
                                We the poor banished children
                                of Adam and Eve go to the pure
                                and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary
                                living more holy lives as we
                                imitate Their lives.

                            The rosary is an instruction tool —
                                that helps us understand
                                more deeply how we are to
                                be as Imitators of Christ.

                            Living one day, trying to follow
                                Christ is not our purpose —
                                Living a deeper life of
                                Consecration to the Hearts
                                of Jesus and Mary is a way of life.
                                We imitate Their lives in our
                                lives. We know more deeply in our
                                hearts the mystery of the paschal
                                mystery and it is ever unfolding
                                as we live a life of death/resurrection
                                moment by moment, day by day.

                                Our lives are not to be sterile
                            dry and inactive, but deeply rooted
                            in Christ performing all our
                            actions to the littlest detail
                            pleasing our Heavenly Father and in
                            so doing showing Him great love.

                            The calling in Baptism for the
                                Catholic is to live ever deeper
                                that gift of partaking in the
                                sacraments and spreading the
                                good news about the Church, the
                                priesthood - the gift of Salvation
                                if we do as God wants us to.

                                Joy is in the Savior!!

                                For me I am saddened by the
                            thought of one soul going to hell
                            eternally to wanting to give my
                            life praying for the priests, the
                            Church and the world.

                                Our legacy is to do all we can to
                            be holy as our heavenly Father wants
                            us to be.

                                Focus on your money and your plans
                            for it when you are dead —

                                What about focusing on praying
                            for the priests and the Church so our
                            children have abundant priests
                            for this gift God has given us.

                                Once a rare gem is discovered
                            and is unclaimed many seek to
                            claim it —

                                My people God has given us this special
                            sharing in His life through baptism —
                            Jesus, the Son of God - remains truly
                            present in the Eucharist through the hands of
                            consecrated priests.

                                Oh blind of the blind — if I
                            placed a gold nugget before your eyes
                            your mouths would surely water and
                            the greediness of your hearts would
                            rush forth like one escaping a
                            sinking ship.

                                What is wrong with our focus that
                            our tongues are tied in telling our young
                            people the gift of the priest, the Church —
                            eternal life in heaven — the sacraments —
                            Oh wonder of all wonders —
                            that the magnificent God came and
                                took on a human nature —
                                that He walked the earth —

                            But what a wonder that God gifts
                                the priest as He does in
                                celebrating Mass, after Mass,
                                after Mass —

                            Let the focus be straight — the priest is
                                the Spouse of Christ in a very special
                                way - showing us all betrothal to
                                God — knowing what a gift we will have
                                in heaven with the beatific vision

                            Oh rapture, of all raptures —
                                grant me the grace to
                                thirst for Your banquet and
                                to never cease loving and honoring
                                You my God
                            To not be unfaithful in anyway
                                by offending You by
                                carnal desires that may
                                eat at my soul and take
                                My focus from Thee.

                            God deserves to be FIRST IN
                                OUR LIVES —
                                FIRST - FIRST - FIRST
                                No human person can ever be compared with
                                    deep spiritual union with the Divine
                                    God — all love must be
                                    pure as not to offend
                                    the Master
                                    the bridegroom of our soul —
                                    to us much has been given,
                                    much will be expected.

SHEPHERDS OF CHRIST AND FATIMA

In the Shepherds of Christ, we are a family, joined in one heart in Mary and Jesus' Heart because of our consecration to Their Hearts. We are acting as His Heart beating in this world. We are the modern day apostles joined in one heart.

As we give our hearts to Mary, the Holy Spirit gives us lights to know God and we go forth into the world as lights because we love God so much. We cannot know God and not love Him. So our hearts are filled with the burning love of God.

We Are One in Jesus' Heart

 

The core leaders contact the coordinators. The coordinators contact the individual apostles. All apostles are working for Jesus. They try to spend one hour a day either in front of the tabernacle or at home alone with Jesus. In this hour, Jesus directs them on their life. They share intimate love with Jesus. He teaches them about Himself and the Father's will for them. It is so important to spend an hour of intimacy everyday with Jesus.

We live by Mary's Peace Plan given at Fatima. It is as follows:

  1. Until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.
  2. Mary has requested all to pray the daily rosary.
  3. We must observe the Five First Saturday devotion:
    - Communion, confession (within 8 days before or after the Saturday), recital of the rosary, meditating for 15 minutes on the mysteries of the rosary. All this is to be done in a spirit of reparation.
  4. We must make reparation to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

His plan centers around this.

We have heads functioning in the individual ministries. Everything we do leads to consecration of hearts. As the apostles press on the three institutions, the Church, family, and school to help spread the consecration, the strayed ones will be led home to His Heart.

Mary said at Fatima, until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.

The Present Condition of the World

 

Peace will come when hearts are hearts of love. The scales must shift. It will happen through the consecration. Mary's peace plan: until a sufficient amount of people consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace.

The Scale Must Shift

 

Pictorial representation of shift in Present Condition of the World

The Father looks to the earth; He sees much darkness.

The Father looks to the earth. There are so many hearts that are not on fire for love of God. The hearts of burning love light up the earth. It is as lights on a Christmas tree. It is sparsely lighted. Therefore, the tree looks dark.

As the Shepherds of Christ Movement spreads (as well as other movements focused on spreading consecration to Their Hearts) the tree is covered with more hearts filled with burning love for Jesus and the earth becomes more lighted.

The tree is covered with hearts consecrated to the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary. The tree is so bright.

Tree showing hearts consecrated to Jesus and Mary

As the Shepherds of Christ apostles spread the consecration to the Church, the family, and the school, the tree is covered with lights and the earth is covered with the fire of His love.

The Father looks to the earth now. He is displeased with the hearts of men. The Father wants us to love God and love each other. He wants us to live according to His will in love.

Mary appears at Fatima. She tells us that we are offending God. She tells us what we must do. Mary's peace plan:

  1. Until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.
  2. Mary has requested all to pray the daily rosary.
  3. We must observe the Five First Saturday devotion:
    - Communion, confession (within 8 days before or after the Saturday), recital of the rosary, meditating for 15 minutes on the mysteries of the rosary. All this is to be done in a spirit of reparation.
  4. We must make reparation to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Mary said there will be an era of peace, in which the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph.

God gave us Mary as our Mother. We are disobeying our Mother's requests given at Fatima. Do you think the Father is pleased with willful children disobeying their mother?

Man disobeys, the devil blocks the Fatima message. World War II happens just as Mary said.

Jesus writes His message of love on our hearts. His life lives in our hearts. The Scriptures and the Mass live in our hearts.

In the Shepherds of Christ Movement, our focus is on the priest.
