                R. Dear Heavenly Father I offer You this day
                all my prayers, works, joys and
                sufferings, my every heart beat in
                union with the Holy Sacrifice of the
                Mass around the world,
                so one with Jesus, in the Holy Spirit with
                all the angels and saints and the souls
                in purgatory. I pray for the priests,
                the Church and the world.

                Today is the day the Lord has made, let
                us rejoice and be glad in it.

                Let the heavens sing and the earth be glad
                a Savior is born to us.

                Oh God the Father thank You for the gift of Your Son,
                Jesus. Thank You for the Mass, the Sacrifice of
                Calvary sacramentally made present.

                Dear God I offer all I do, all day
                united to the Mass for the special
                intentions I now say –

                    What a gift it is to be able to go to Mass
                and to receive Jesus, truly present in the
                Eucharist. I long for Thee, my God.
                I thirst to receive Thee. I desire to
                be so united to You all day in everything
                I do.

                    Come to me Lord and possess my soul.
                Come into my heart and open my heart
                to Your presence and Your love.

                    A day without the Mass is a day
                of great suffering. Help us always to
                have holy priests. Help men to answer
                the call You give them to be holy priests.
                We pray for vocations of men to the
                priesthood.

                    We pray for vocations to the married life,
                to be holy, to have holy families, to
                realize God has called married men
                and women to their vocation and to
                be faithful to their vocation to God.

                    We pray for sisters and brothers in
                religious life to be the faithful spouse
                of Jesus. To live their vocation and
                to take it seriously, to say 'yes' to
                their vocation like Mary our Mother
                taught us to say 'yes' – call – response.

                    We pray for others who have been
                widowed and those in the single life
                to live their vocation as God has
                called them, being faithful and holy.

                    God has a plan for us. God has
                called us to a vocation in life. The
                fourth commandment tells us that
                children are to be obedient to their
                parents and parents are to live
                this vocation of being a parent
                according to how God wants them
                to be.

                    Dear God we are thankful for
                Your gifts to us. We are thankful
                for life and our calling in life to
                serve You and love You and witness
                to You in our vocation – please
                give us grace to live our vocation in
                love. To be obedient to You and Your
                commandments to us and to be faithful
                to our call in life.

                    Dear God we love You so much.
                We are sorry for our sins and the
                sins of the human race. Dear God
                outpour Your grace upon us and
                the Church and the world for men
                to live according to Your holy will –
                Dear God help us.

                    We pray the Blood of Jesus is
                spread on us, our families and the
                whole Church and the whole world.

                    We cast the devil into the fires of
                hell. We ask for a special outpouring
                of the Holy Spirit on us, our families, the
                Shepherds of Christ, the Church and the world.

                    We consecrate the human race to the
                Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart
                in as far as we are able. We
                consecrate the Church to the Sacred
                Heart and Immaculate Heart
                in as far as we are able.

                    We pray that men make Jesus
                the King and Center of their
                hearts and their lives.

                    Please send holy priests into
                the harvest. We beg for Your help
                God. We are the poor banished
                children of Adam and Eve. Please help us.

                Sing: Oh Lord Hear our prayer
                Sing: Come Holy Spirit
                Sing: Come Holy Ghost
                Sing: A Song from Jesus
                Sing: Come Holy Ghost
                Sing: Glory Be
                Sing: Our Father
                Sing: Hail Mary
                Sing: Litany to Mary
                Sing: Litany to the Sacred Heart
                Sing: The Prayer for Union

                God tells us in the Word to Rejoice –

                God would not tell us to rejoice if
                    He did not want our hearts to
                    be happy –

                What do we need to be happy?

                We need to have God as our goal.
                We need to live the Father's will in
                    love –

                We need to respond to the call
                    God gives us in our vocation
                    and live our vocation
                    faithfully.

                Rejoice in the Lord always –

                We can control our own happiness
                    by how we look at life –

                An attitude of gratitude.

                Dwelling in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary –
                    Fr. Carter called, our little heaven
                    on earth –

                We are to live in the present moment.

                God created us to love – to love
                    Him first and love our neighbor
                    as ourselves –

                We need to work through unforgiveness
                    in our hearts –
                    forgiving even our parents
                    who may have died –

                We need to be kind and compassionate
                    to others –

                "Do unto others as you would
                    have them do unto you"

                We need to make our requests known
                    to God, St. Paul says.

                We pray that we live the Good News.

                Pray to know God deeply in our
                    hearts –

                Pray to know our place – to live
                    under God –

                Pray for peace in accepting and
                    loving the vocation God
                    calls us to –

                Pray for a loving attitude –

                Pray to reverence God –

                Hold the gifts God has given to
                    us as sacred –
                    life is sacred –

                The priest is to be respected –
                The Holy Gospel - respected –
                The Church is such a gift from God.

                We need to respect and reverence God
                    and obey His holy will for us –

                We cling to God –

                God is our Maser, Master of the Universe –

                Let us lift our eyes to God –

                Let us seek the plan of the
                heavenly Father and love
                Him with our whole heart,
                    our whole soul and our
                    whole being –

                Love unites our hearts –

                Love of God and others according to
                    God's will brings peace and joy
                    to the heart.

                    God calls us to be in joy in
                pain and suffering. Jesus showed
                us in the human condition we
                would suffer.
 

From the Priestly Newsletter 1995 - March/April

Reflections on Suffering

All of the above provides an occasion to offer various reflections on suffering:

  • The great tragedy concerning human suffering is not that there is so much of it. The real tragedy is that apparently so much of it is wasted. So much of it apparently is not coped with according to God’s will.
  • Suffering can beautifully expand or bitterly constrict the personality. It is our choice which prevails.
  • A willingness to suffer for a cause must accompany any true commitment.
  • A persistent suffering is the necessity of bearing with our limitations.
  • The fear of suffering is, for some people, one of the greatest crosses.
  • True love, in any of its forms, must be experienced against the background of the cross. Jesus has very vividly shown us this. Strange, then, that at times we can strive to develop another pattern of loving.
  • The suffering that is presently the most necessary for us is the one we can most consistently refuse.
  • Happiness cannot be achieved without a proper encounter with suffering. This is a basic premise of the Christian message. It would seem, then, that we would eagerly embrace the cross. Yet how often is this the case?
  • Being misunderstood by others precisely because we are striving to do God’s will is a not uncommon suffering.
  • To have to unavoidably hurt others can cause the sensitive person a suffering greater than the one he or she is inflicting.
  • There is a part of us that does not want to surrender to God. This struggle between the true self and the false self produces a unique type of suffering which is persistently present, often in milder degrees, but occasionally with an intensity that pierces very suddenly and very sharply.
  • It is not necessarily those who suffer the most who are the holiest. We grow in holiness through suffering—whatever its degree—to the extent we encounter it in loving conformity to God’s will.
  • The boredom that can grow out of daily routine, the frequent occasions which try one’s patience, ordinary episodes of failure, minor annoyances of various kinds, anxieties—these and other forms of the daily cross do not, taken separately, require a Christian response of heroic proportions. But in their cumulative effect over a long period of time, such occasions offer us the opportunity of becoming love-inspired Christians to an eminent degree.
  • There is nothing in the Christian teaching of the cross that says we cannot pray for relief from our sufferings.
  • To want to flee suffering is an un-christian attitude. So also is the attempt to make suffering an end in itself. The Christ-event did not end on Calvary.
  • “Then to all he said: ‘If anyone wants to be a follower of mine, let him renounce himself and take up his cross every day and follow me.’” (Lk 9: 23).    end of excerpt

 

                R. We pray to live as God wants us
                to live, being fruit for that
                time in our lives when God
                has put us here on earth –

                    Sufferings are redemptive –
                we must learn to live as God wants
                us to live – in His timing – in
                His way.

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus
we put our trust in Thee

                R. For certain reasons we are forced to experience
                separation. My mom died when I was five and my
                whole family had to deal with the fact mom was gone.
                But I knew my mom was not dead, but she still lived –
                she was very holy and she loved Jesus very much.
                We all suffered at the death of my mom and when
                I was in the funeral parlor I smelled roses. There
                were roses over her casket, but I think Our Blessed
                Mother was there – the place was full of the scent of
                roses.

                    I really didn't like the smell of roses after that
                until I was 48 the age my mom died of cancer and
                I realized Our Lady gave me a special presence of her
                by smelling roses.

                    Fr. Carter began the Shepherds of Christ that year
                because of a message Jesus gave to him –

  

July 31, 1994

Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:

"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.

"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.

"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)

 

                R. I had already received the messages of Blue Book I in 1993,
                but they gave Fr. Carter the messages to discern in
                March, 1994 and Blue Book I was published in May, 1994.
                Blue Book I, Blue Book II and Blue Book III were
                circulated soon after that.
                In 20 years over 70,000 Blue Book III's were
                circulated, not to mention Blue Book I and Blue Book II.

                    On December 5, 2015 I read the book the Invisible
                String at Clearwater.

                    Life is ever changing and we must try to
                grow in greater perfection to grow more in
                the image and likeness of Jesus.

                    We live the pascal mystery of death/resurrection.
                Things happen in our lives and we must continue
                to grow in the Plan of God the Father.

                God the Father has a purpose for our lives –
                God the Father has a unique plan for our
                lives –

                    From the message December 28, 2015 I saw that
                we are taught how dependent we are. As babies we
                are completely dependent – we live as children
                in dependency and when we get older, if we have
                children, we still learn how much we depend
                on.

                    God is teaching us a lesson to learn about
                dependency on Him by living our lives as
                little children, adults and elderly to see we
                are dependent. We need to learn that lesson
                and know our every breath is given by
                God, we are dependent on God for our life.

                    People can come and go in our lives, but we
                can't stop living because people come and go.
                We have to do the will of the Heavenly Father despite
                the joys and sufferings around us.

                    In the book the Invisible String it talks about
                being united. This book reminds me of how we
                are united in our hearts to each other and
                are united in the Heart of Jesus to each
                other.

                    Being united as members of the mystical
                body of Christ is such a gift. Receiving
                Jesus in communion is such a gift to be
                thankful for.

                    Being able to be more deeply united to God and
                others in relationships is what life and
                love is all about.

                    God commands us to love Him and
                    God commands us to love one another as
                    we love ourselves.

                    There is always going to be times we suffer
                tremendously because of people who die
                or leave and go away in our lives.
                We are to remain loving in these cases and
                forgiving – praying for and loving those of
                our ancestors and friends that moved on
                and forgiving them.

 

1 Corinthians 2: 9

"What no eye has seen and no ear has heard, what the mind of man cannot visualise; all that God has prepared for those who love him;"
               

                R. In Fr. Joe's new book is a homily about
                Fr. Lammeier Fr. Joe gave.

 


 

                R. We loved Fr. Lammeier and Fr. Joe preached
                his homily –
 

Fr. Lammeier’s Funeral

July 11, 2015 

HOMILY: (Readings: Isaiah, 25,6.7-9; I Thessalonians, 4,13-18; John, 14,1-6) I would like to begin with a quotation from Fr. Lammeier’s will.  No! he did not leave instructions to give everyone $1000 who came to his funeral. But he did give instructions about the homily for his Funeral Mass. He wrote in his will this (quote) “request that the homilist talk on ‘death’ or the priesthood. Please no eulogy. There is not an awful lot of good that can be said, and I would want the homily to be a little longer than that.”  (unquote)

I would not agree with Fr. Lammeier on that. There is an “awful lot of good that can be said,”  but I’m not going to say everything that could be said because I may be haunted by Fr. Lammeier some evening for not following his instructions. I hope no one objects to my calling Fr. Lammeier “Zib.” It was a nickname his mother gave him when he was small and he told me he doesn’t know what it means or why she called him that. I’ve been calling him Zib for the past 15 years or more when he was helping me at St. Boniface. We were blest by Fr. Lammeier’s willingness to help us. He was a very humble man, highly respected, had a good sense of humor, worked hard on his homilies and described himself as a simple priest who said his prayers and did his work.  He influenced many people by his wisdom, whether it was one of the two archbishops he served as their administrative secretary, Archbishops Leibold and Bernardin, or whether it was the ordinary parishioner who came to him with a problem or for confession on a Saturday afternoon.  He treated everyone with equal dignity and kindness.   

For about 18 months, he lived at St. Boniface Church and it was an honor and privilege to have him there. He tried very hard not to inconvenience any of the staff. Often when people visited him, instead of saying “goodbye” he always said “try to be nice.” The way he was telling others to live is the way he lived, treating others in a friendly and benevolent way.   

This is getting too much like a eulogy, which Zib didn’t want.  He said to talk about the priesthood or death.  Well, I will say something about both.  Regarding priesthood, Zib loved being a priest. Saying Mass in the morning was the highlight of his day. The day he died, he had concelebrated Mass with the other priests at St. Margaret Hall. He was faithful to the divine office, the rosary and holy hours at church. He was not a monk or a hermit, he had a well-rounded personality; he enjoyed reading, watching sports on TV and keeping in touch with his many friends. 

On the topic of death, Zib died peacefully. It was in a way a blessing because his sciatica had been really causing him a lot of pain. We’ve heard three scripture readings on death.  Isaiah pictures it as something God is going to eliminate at the end of time (he will destroy death forever and wipe away the tears from all faces) and to those who have remained faithful, God will provide a wonderful banquet (and since death and tears – including such things as starvation - will be done away with, the banquet will be unending). 

Paul tells us in the second reading about Christ’s second coming. The Thessalonians were worried that their friends and family who had already died would miss out on the grand event of Jesus’ return at the end of time. Paul said, don’t worry, those who have already died will rise first then all of us together will be taken up to meet our Lord, our king, visibly enthroned in glory. 

In the gospel Jesus assures us there’s plenty of room in God’s great kingdom and he will have a place ready for those who follow him. We will be with him always. The words of the gospel we just heard come from the Last Supper, shortly before Jesus’ arrest.  With the conviction that his followers would be with him always, he tells them “do not let your hearts be troubled.”  It was easy for Jesus to say, but hard to do for the apostles considering what they were soon going to have to face. 

Jesus always says to us during difficult times: “do not let your hearts be troubled.” The loss of Zib is sad.  He had so many talents and so many good qualities. Now, instead of having the support of his inspiration and encouragement, we have to let go, we have to say goodbye. But it’s only a temporary goodbye. As we follow the way, the truth and the life, we will all meet again in the everlasting kingdom of God’s love. May our faith be strong and may our hearts not be troubled, and as Zib would say to us if he were to leave us with any words of wisdom: “try to be nice.” 

 

                R. Also in Fr. Joe's book is a homily for my
                    stepmother Rosella Robinson
                    November 12, 2005.

      


  

Rosella Robinson

Funeral November 12, 2005

In Rosella we have all had a good friend. Offering sympathy is in order, because we’ve lost a step-mother, a grandmother, an aunt, a friend, a wonderful lady. At the same time we are not here to grieve but to celebrate. We celebrate that Rosella lived a good and full life for 95 years, that she died a peaceful death, that she lived and died filled with God’s grace. We also celebrate our faith that she is now enjoying the rewards of eternal life. As our first reading says: “The souls of the just are in the hand of God, and no torment shall touch them. They seemed in the view of the foolish to be dead…but they are in peace.” For the bible, a fool is someone who doesn’t believe in God. Their vision of reality is limited. Their mind is closed to anything they cannot discover for themselves. So death is the end of life in the view of a foolish person, since they have no belief in God. But for one who has faith, there is more to life than just the few years we spend on this earth. There is unending life with God. If a fool is someone who doesn’t believe in God, then by those standards, Rosella was a person with profound and extraordinary wisdom. Her life was centered on God and her prayers were for those she loved that they too would live a life centered on God.

I was talking with George the other evening and he said whenever she called him she would introduce herself as: “This is Rosella, your godmother.” She took her role seriously. George said by reminding him she was his godmother, he thinks she was also reminding him that she had the responsibility and the authority to straighten him out if he needed it. I’m sure all her godchildren got gentle reminders at times and I’m sure they got lots of extra prayers as well.

The gospel I chose for our Mass today was on the Eucharist. The Eucharist was so important to Rosella. She would come to Mass every day when she could. Jesus tells us “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day.” It is in this faith that I can say we are here to celebrate, knowing Rosella was well nourished with the bread of life, the body and blood of Jesus who promised: “whoever eats this bread will live forever.”

In 1952 our mother, Alice, died. Rosella knew Alice and often Rosella told me that because of the friendship they shared, she felt she should step in and help out after Alice died. And she did when she married my father in February, 1953. For over 52 years she has been with us. She was a caregiver through and through. When she was finished caring for us, she cared for her sister, Catherine, and she cared for her grandchildren. It was what made her happy, to be needed by someone. And she didn’t want to inconvenience anyone. She would always tell me, “Now if you have something planned and something happens to me, don’t change your plans. Just go ahead with what you were going to do.”

All kinds of great things could be said about Rosella, her kindness, her gentleness, her faith, her dedication to family. One thing I always remarked about was that I seldom heard her say a negative thing about anyone. Dad would often get frustrated with her when he wanted to complain about someone and she would make excuses for them or stand up for them.

I have no worries about where she is now. I’m sure she can say with St. Paul: “ I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. From now on a merited crown awaits me…” I believe she now must have a double crown, the first for living with my father (I loved my father, but those who knew him will understand what I mean). The second crown would be for taking over the care of five children, four in grade school and me in high school.

Since she’s been at the Little Sisters, who took wonderful care of her, I would try to visit her every week. Whenever I was about to leave she would say “If I don’t see you next week, I’ll be on my way to heaven.” She was peaceful with her God, with herself and with those who knew her. She was ready to go. So I can’t grieve. I can only say thank you God for giving us a good woman to take care of us when we needed her, a good woman to inspire us in the way of holiness and a good woman to pray for us and whom I am sure will continue to pray for us until we’re all together.

When she died a week ago we were enjoying the beautiful colors of fall. The red and yellow and gold trees were telling us that summer is over. But we do not grieve that the green leaves are gone and that nature is shutting down for we know it’s only temporary. Spring will return and so will a new life for Rosella and for all of us, a life that will never end. Amen.

  

 

Betty's Funeral

 

 

Fr. Carter's grave

 

April 13, 2002

Messenger:     We see the flowering trees

  

     

April 13, 2002 message continues

Messenger:      and the little petals fall to the ground and lay there so
                     beautiful a little blanket of petals.

                          I went to a little church today and the funeral was
                     of a 3 year old little girl that died. I see the little
                     delicate petals now fall from the green beautiful
                     trees, a little blanket.

                          A little petal went to heaven. She was at Children's
                     Hospital here, sick for a year.

                          The message is the message of hope and love and I
                     felt so sad, but I knew this small child would go to
                     heaven. That is the joy to know that she will live
                     forever with God. I felt very sad and wanted to cry
                     when the priest and people talked, thinking of the
                     little ones and seeing their beautiful ways, their
                     purity, their little smiles, their simplicity, their
                     wonder and wanting to work to learn and love.

                          And then I saw the sorrow of Mary, our Mother, 
                     when she told me to reach the schools with the
                     rosary and consecration. I saw her when she cried
                     out about the children every day for those last
                     nine months she appeared.

   

   

April 13, 2002 message continues

Messenger:      This is the Mother of God, sent as a messenger 
                     from God to deliver this message to the earth 
                     about the children. And when she appeared every 
                     day for 14 months and they chased me away,
                     that ended her daily visits,
                     but we continued the rosaries as she requested
                     on the 5ths of each month and this has been since
                     April 5, 1995 when she called public gatherings
                     on the 5th of the month.

                           The pictures you see here April 5, 2002, 7
                     years later are still the call of Mary as we prayed
                     under Mary's image as we were told to do. She wants 
                     the people of the earth to quit offending God and 
                     obey the 10 commandments, she wants us to reach 
                     the children and teach the world to pray.

Messenger:      This mission in Shepherds of Christ is from a message given
                     to Fr. Carter May 1994 to begin the Newsletter.

                          The priest at the funeral talked about the death
                     of the three year old, but there is hope.

                          Listen to the message Mary gave after she
                     appeared to me daily for 14 months and people
                     wouldn't listen.

   


    Sorrowful Mother

Mary's Message from the Rosary of August 27, 1996

Mary:  I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.

                     What about Mary's children that are not being

Revelation 22: 1-2

Then the angel showed me the river of life, rising from the throne of God and of the Lamb and flowing crystal–clear. Down the middle of the city street, on either bank of the river were the trees of life, which bear twelve crops of fruit in a year, one in each month, and the leaves of which are the cure for the nations.

                         all these people united in a live
                         broadcast for the priests, the Church and
                         the world and what is going on in
                         the Holy Land.

                     I was told by God that the Father would
                         answer my prayers if I pray to the
                         Father so deeply.

                     We will pray for His will, for peace and
                         grace to be released on the
                         world.

                         I sat in the funeral and I saw the little child,
                     but there is hope for she went home, but what
                     of all the children Mary is talking about
                     that will lose their souls forever.

                         Oh I see her and all I can do is
                     deliver the message and tell you what
                     she said and try to spread the meditations
                     on the rosary and try to reach the children
                     with the rosary and consecrations and
                     the messages and meditations, all that
                     Fr. Carter discerned very carefully.

                         Here is what Mary said at Fatima
                     we must do to have peace.

    

    

  1. Consecration to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary—until a sufficient number of people make and live the consecration, we will not have peace in the world.

  2. Praying the rosary.

  3. Observing the First Saturday Devotion.

  4. Making reparation to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Excerpt from Father Carter's Book

The Spirituality of Fatima

July 13, 1917

    During this same July apparition, Mary showed the three children a vision of Hell. She told them:

    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 the 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. (12)

    To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart and the Communion of Reparation on the five first Saturdays. If my requests are granted, Russia will be converted and there will be peace. if not, she will scatter her errors throughout the world, provoking wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, and various nations will be destroyed....

    But in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world. (13)

Excerpt from Father Carter's Book

The Spirituality of Fatima

In the fall of the same year, the angel visited the visionaries a final time:

The angel came...bearing a golden chalice in one hand and a Host above it in the other. The amazed children noticed that drops of blood were falling from the Host into the chalice. Presently, the angel left both suspended in mid-air and prostrated himself on the ground, saying this beautiful prayer: "Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore You profoundly. I offer You the most precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifference by which He is offended. By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and [the intercession of] the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of Thee the conversion of poor sinners." (5)

February 7, 2002  

To whom it may concern,
  

    We circulate the Priestly Newsletter that goes to 75,000 priests in the world. This has been circulated since 1994 at the direction of Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. who had a doctorate in Theology and taught at Xavier University for over thirty years and author of eighteen books on the spiritual life and many other various publications.

    Our primary purpose is to circulate this Newsletter. We are now sending three years of Newsletters in a book of 342 pages to 75,000 priests in the United States and 90 foreign countries. A special Newsletter is enclosed with Father Carter's powerful writing on Grace (2001 issue 1). This writing is also available on tape and on disc.

    Our coequal purpose is to circulate prayer manuals Father Carter compiled for prayer chapters praying for the priests, the Church and
the world.

    All of our printing and postage costs so much money.

    We operate from the Virgin Mary building in Clearwater, Florida, pictures are enclosed. We use the building to spread materials and rosaries
to encourage people to pray for the priests, the Church and the world.

    We also have a church we received from the diocese in China, Indiana where we distribute our materials and pray before the Blessed Sacrament hourly and about two hours or more at 6:20 every day. Monthly adoration before the exposed Eucharist is held for our members for 48 hours on the 12th of each month to the 14th.

    We have a third center in Morrow, Ohio which is our communication center and mailing address.

    We circulate rosaries handmade to Catholic schools all over the United States and meditation sheets and consecration cards. We try to send scapulars too when we have them. We supply many beads to our rosary makers for this.

    We had difficulty all last summer securing funds for beads for our rosary makers. We were not able to send the 100,000 or more rosaries we usually send in October and May because of funds.

    We need $10,000 every month for the loan on the Virgin Mary building. We pray nightly there usually for about two hours or more at 6:20. We pray all through the day there, hourly, many times before the image. A big prayer meeting is held on the 5th of the month. Prayers are prayed for about 4 hours for the priests, the Church and the world. We broadcast to at least 8 states and all join in the prayers, including Morrow and China.

    We have a nursing home ministry and a prison ministry. We supply coloring books of the rosary mysteries and the Mass to children.

    We desperately need funds for the printing and the rosary making operation and all the postage. Bishops from foreign countries beg for rosaries and prayer sheets with the Shepherds of Christ Prayers.

    Now we are struggling with the monthly rent on the building and the postage for the foreign mailing of the Priestly Newsletter Book II.

    We always need money for the rosary beads for the schools and the Virgin Mary building.

    We also do a Holy Spirit Novena, but the little book has been out of print for some time because of lack of funds. Teachers like to use it for confirmation. We have prayer chapters using it daily all over the world.

    We want to circulate pictures of the crucifix and Mary's image on the building, we are unable to do this because of lack of funds. Enclosed are pictures of the crucifix and the Virgin Mary building.

    A very important part of our Movement is trying to get people to say the Morning Offering. Here is a card we distribute extensively, especially to Nursing Homes and school children.
   

  
    Here is a short form of consecration to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary that we circulate extensively.
  

   
    Can you help us. It is a real shame to not even have rent on the building Mary appears on.

    We need to tell the world about the Mass. This is another important aspect of our ministry. We have so many writings about the Mass. Mass Book I with the Imprimatur—and all Fr. Carter's writings and many other writings discerned by Fr Carter before his death. 

    It is a shame with all the money in the world not to be able to get the rosary beads to the rosary makers for school children who want them to pray the rosary.

    Our movement is trying to do what Our Lady told us to do at Fatima for peace in the world.

    Can you help us?

22 Years Ago

Picture of the Sacred Heart of JesusMy True Presence

December 29, 1993

Jesus: I am the Good Shepherd. I know Mine and Mine know Me. I am one Who goes before you. Pave the way for the Lord. He is mighty and deserving of all praise and Holy is His Name! His might goes from generation to generation on those who fear Him. He raises the lowly to new life and the rich He sends away empty.

Prepare His way. As one crying in the desert, prepare and make ready a path for the Lord. At His name, every knee should bend and all should be attentive to His coming. I am Jesus, Son of the Living God. I come into your midst, not as a king adorned in splendor, but as a helpless little baby. I do not carry My might in front of Me. My might is there without any ado.

I am He Whose boot strap you are unworthy to tie, but I come and give Myself to you. I am a God of might, but one Who loves you so much that I come and dwell with you. I enter into your bodies in Holy Communion. I do not blare the trumpets and roll the drums, but nonetheless am I mighty and nonetheless am I the true King of heaven and earth!

My love for you gives you such dignity, My little ones. Why do you go about wailing for all you're worth when I give you worth. So much worth by My Communion with you. I come and I dwell by your side. I enter your body. I remain waiting for you in the tabernacle and you miss the great dignity that I bestow on you. Wake up, My people! The King of Glory is in your midst. He awaits you in the tabernacle. He waits for you to come and be in Communion with Him at Mass. And you sleep, you follow roads that lead you to empty treasures when the priceless treasure waits you at Mass!

Ready your hearts for the coming of the Lord. Be not numb to this event. Be wide awake and knowledgeable of what transpires at the altar. Bread and wine are changed by the priest into the Body and Blood of Jesus. He is the Savior of the World. He loves you so much that He comes to you every day in Communion and you, little ones, choose other things! Oh, how blind and numb My sick children are. You are missing the most valuable treasure. I await you at every Mass. Why is My church not packed for what transpires here? Concerts are packed. Ball games are packed. Big bucks for the false idols! And what for the King of Glory? An empty church!

My heart is sad, sad, sad, little ones. I come and wait for you here. Tell your brothers about My love for them. You come empty, you leave full. Tell My brothers that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is present at Mass and He enters your bodies. Many Catholics go to Mass every Sunday and have no idea of the significance of the Holy Eucharist. My heart is aching. They receive Me. Then, with the same tongues, they leave the church rattling senseless things. I am God, you silly children. I am God and I come to you on your tongue. Tell your friends how honored you are. No stars could compare to God. They are mortal beings and their concerts are packed. Ball games are honored as a god.

Your time is not yours. It is My time and I loan it to you to work for Me. America, you have made sports a god! You have made sports stars gods, singers gods! You pack the house and the honor awaits mortal beings, but the Son of God sits in an empty church! For the few who want to sit with Me the churches are locked. Open My churches up. I want My people to come to Me and sit with Me. The few who do know the significance have to drive so far to sit with Me.

Not even My priests know how important the tabernacle is. They need to realize I am truly present there and that I wait for My loved ones to come and sit with Me. To lock Me up is not to treasure Me. To treasure Me is to make Me available to all that want to come.

Preach My love from the housetops and boast My words from every rooftop, "Jesus, Lord, awaits you in the tabernacle. He is in the church, truly present there, waiting to give you His love!" Please do not guard Me so well. I am so guarded no one can come to Me. What a setup! I sit and wait and lament My loved ones' presence with Me and the few who would come cannot get in! I am truly present in the tabernacle.

I do not want to be locked up. I want you to come and let Me pour My gifts out to you. I want to give you supplies for a sick world. Everyone should come and be with Me every day, sit in silence and let Me work in your soul. What might for you, little babies! Jesus waits to shower you with His love.

After Communion people run from the church. They receive God on their tongues and in their hearts and they are out lickety-split. Where do they go so quickly from the Son of Man, Who is God? You turn your backs. You run away like in a race, a race for nothingness, and the bridegroom of your hearts is ignored. Think of a bride running away to K-Mart two minutes after her wedding. "What could be so important?," you ask. "What is wrong with her head!?"

Little ones, what is wrong with the heads of My faithful who attend daily Mass and do not know they still have Jesus, the Son of God, in their hearts when they run to the food stores. There I am going up and down the grocery aisles while they make useless conversation-right outside the church-while I am still actively in their chest!

Tell your brothers about Communion. It has become an insignificant event! I am God and I am in the host you receive. God, God, God. Where is your honor for this King? Where is your head? I, Jesus, Lord, am in your hearts and you run from the church to pump your gas. Such indifference! Such disrespect and irreverence! I am God, My loved ones. I am the bridegroom of your soul and you leave the wedding for a trip to the gas tank. I am so offended. I, in My great love, come to you. God enters you and you run from My altar with such irreverence! Believe Me, nothing you do all day will compare to the Son of Man in your breast. I am God and I enter your body and you are so irreverent. You don't even know what treasure you possess.

Get this message out about My True Presence. Tell them, My faithful ones, that I am very displeased by their indifference to Me in Holy Communion. Stay and sit with Me. Sit in silence after Communion. My magnetic attraction draws you to the altar, then you miss the most important event in your day. It is your union with Me, your silence after Communion, your quiet resting in My arms, that will change your life. I am so loving and I long to dole out My gifts after Communion.

Know, My loved ones, Jesus, Son of the Living God is there the same as He was the day He died on the cross, and you walk away with Him Who loves you so much in your breast.

Sit with Me. Be silent. Spend time with Me after Communion. You do not talk to Him Whom you love. You just melt into each other's arms. Let Me join My heart to your heart after Communion. Don't ever run from the church. I am God, truly present there. All you faithful, become aware of My True Presence in Holy Communion and in the tabernacle. Tell all about this and how I am there out of such love and I have so much to give them.

If I, Who am God, came and was born a helpless baby, a human being; if I, Who am God, died a brutal death for you with full knowledge of all My sufferings before I did it; if I, Who am God, rose from the dead and then ascended into heaven to My Father; if I, Who am God, am present in the tabernacle and Communion and if I love you so much as to go through all this for you, then why do you not realize what I, Who am God, would give to you when you receive Me and sit in front of the tabernacle!

I am God!! What is wrong with your heads! Tell My people the treasure you possess. All else here is empty. I am Who am. I am God! I dwell among you and you run to worship other gods. God is not far off. He is in your midst as a prisoner of love and He awaits you in all your unworthiness. But you are dumb! You look for empty treasures and you find empty treasures. In your emptiness you begin an avid search for the answer to a stalking soul, when the treasure you seek is God and He longs for your union with Him!

Tell your brothers they thirst for God and He is waiting. Quit your idle pursuits, your empty hearts. Crave the Savior. You turn your backs and search a barren desert for that which is right in front of your face!

It is in making known God's True Presence in the Eucharist that much healing takes place. Many starving souls are fed for the first time when they realize that Jesus, God, is truly present there! They have given lip service to Jesus in the Eucharist, but have no idea in their hearts what a treasure they possess. Spread the doctrine of the True Presence. Make My love and My availability known to your blind brothers. Bow yourselves before My altar. Be in awe of God, truly present there. Kiss My sanctuary. Don't ever talk in church about anything. Respect God Who is there. Have reverence for Me in My tabernacle. Kiss the floor. Bow. Be reverent!

You must speak about this every chance you get. When people take time to be with Me, then I can change their hearts. Tell all who go to Communion about what a treasure they possess. Pray for your brothers. It is your goodness that pleases Me. I will hear your prayers, spoken from a good heart. Strive after holiness and strive to please Me every minute. Your devotion pleases My aching heart. Do not falter in your love of Me. Let it grow with Me in Communion and in front of the tabernacle. Silence is the key. Be silent and be with Me, little loved one.

Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima

by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

July 13, 1917

    "During her appearance in July, Our Lady, in answer to Lucia's plea, promised that in October she would work a great miracle so that all might believe and know who she was. Again, the Mother of God told the children to sacrifice themselves for sinners and to say many times, especially when making a sacrifice, this prayer: "O my Jesus, I offer this for love of Thee, for the conversion of poor sinners, and in reparation for all the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary." (11)

    "During this same July apparition, Mary showed the three children a vision of Hell. She told them:

    "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 the 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. (12)

    "To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart and the Communion of Reparation on the five first Saturdays. If my requests are granted, Russia will be converted and there will be peace. If not, she will scatter her errors throughout the world, provoking wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, and various nations will be destroyed....

    "But in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world." (13)
