                April 11, 2014

                R. Life is a precious gift God gives to us.
                Life is a gift from God. God is the Creator,
                we are the creatures. God has the Plan –
                We are to know, love and serve Him.
                Our physical life can be snatched from us
                at any time, so we should treasure every
                day as precious, more precious than
                money. We can have a million dollars and
                try to plan out how we can spend it
                to make it last.

                What about life – we have so many days,
                so many years to spend here on this
                earth. What we invest in is how
                we will live for eternity. What a
                bargain – if we go to the Heart of Jesus
                Bank we are paid in security and
                love. We have strength within ourselves
                from God. What a gift – God is the giver
                of life. He gives life and He can take
                it away. We have so many years to
                spend our precious days in serving
                Him. God is with us. God loves us.
                God wants us to see ourselves as
                under Him and following His Plan
                as Creator.

                    Some men want to live their
                lives independent of God. We see
                the first act of independence from
                God was Eve. She listened to satan
                because she wanted to be equal to God.

                God gave Adam and Eve all these gifts and
                    Eve disobeyed God, Eve wanted to
                    be equal to God.

                We see the Holy Saturday Vigil Readings –
                I love them – Christ is the Light of the World.

                There is a large fire outside and it is blessed.

                The Lights are dimmed and the Easter Candle
                    is lit by the fire. The people are given candles
                    lighted from the Easter Candle.

                Christ our light is sung by the priest – the
                    people respond - thanks be to God
                    as candles are lighted among the people
                    from the Easter Candle starting
                    from the rear of the Church –

                The deacon lifts the Easter Candle
                    high and sings a second time –

                Christ our light.

                All answer
                    Thanks be to God –

                When the deacon arrives before the
                    altar – he faces the people
                    and sings a third time

                Christ our light –

                Thanks be to God.

                Then the lights in the Church are
                    put on.

                The Exultant is sung

                There are 7 Old Testament readings
                    2 New Testament readings

                (1) There is first a reading from Genesis
                    A reading about creation –|
                    Man was created in the image and
                    likeness of God

                    A Psalm is sung

                (2) The second reading from Genesis on
                    obedience –
                    How Abraham obeyed God –
                    Abraham's faith with his
                        sacrifice

                    And a special Psalm is sung

                (3) Exodus is always used if only
                    3 readings are read –
                    God divides the Red Sea
                        prefiguring baptism

                    And a special Psalm is sung

                (4) Our baptism is a covenant of
                    love with God –
                    We can be unfaithful to God –
                    like an unfaithful wife
                    Isaiah
                    After each reading is a chosen Psalm

                (5) God forgives the sinner who
                    comes and asks.
                    We stumble in the desert –
                    Water is necessary for life.
                    Isaiah 55: 1-11
                    Come to the water

                (6) A reading from Baruch
                    We must walk in God's ways
                    or out life deteriorates
                    God is our lover,
                    God is our Husband
                    God is our wife
                    God is our maker

                Even the stars answer when
                    God calls –
                We are to be faithful
                    to God

                Call - Response

                (7) Ezekiel

                We are God's people
                We have received baptism –
                God will sprinkle clean water
                    on us if we repent –
                We renew our baptism promises
                    this night –

                "God - give me back the joy
                    of your salvation"

                The Psalm
                    "Like a deer that longs
                    for running streams,
                    my soul longs for you,
                    my God –"

                The Epistle is
                    Romans 6: 3-11
 

Romans 6: 3-11

You cannot have forgotten that all of us, when we were baptised into Christ Jesus, were baptised into his death. So by our baptism into his death we were buried with him, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the Father’s glorious power, we too should begin living a new life. If we have been joined to him by dying a death like his, so we shall be by a resurrection like his; realising that our former self was crucified with him, so that the self which belonged to sin should be destroyed and we should be freed from the slavery of sin. Someone who has died, of course, no longer has to answer for sin. 

    But we believe that, if we died with Christ, then we shall live with him too. We know that Christ has been raised from the dead and will never die again. Death has no power over him any more. For by dying, he is dead to sin once and for all, and now the life that he lives is life with God. In the same way, you must see yourselves as being dead to sin but alive for God in Christ Jesus.

 

                R. We see baptism into Christ Jesus –
                    we live a new life in Him –

                Death/Resurrection

                Dying with Christ and rising to
                    new life!

                Dying to our sinful self –
                    we put on Christ –

                Psalm

                    "I shall not die, but live
                    and declare the works
                    of the Lord"

                Gospel of A is from Matthew

                The angel is from God and
                    announces Christ's resurrection
                    to the women.
 

Matthew 28: 1-10

After the Sabbath, and towards dawn on the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala and the other Mary went to visit the sepulchre. And suddenly there was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord, descending from heaven, came and rolled away the stone and sat on it. His face was like lightning, his robe white as snow. The guards were so shaken by fear of him that they were like dead men. But the angel spoke; and he said to the women, ‘There is no need for you to be afraid. I know you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said he would. Come and see the place where he lay, then go quickly and tell his disciples, "He has risen from the dead and now he is going ahead of you to Galilee; that is where you will see him." Look! I have told you.’ Filled with awe and great joy the women came quickly away from the tomb and ran to tell his disciples.

And suddenly, coming to meet them, was Jesus. ‘Greetings,’ he said. And the women came up to him and, clasping his feet, they did him homage. Then Jesus said to them, ‘Do not be afraid; go and tell my brothers that they must leave for Galilee; there they will see me.’

 

                R. Some candidates may be baptized.

                We renew our Baptism Promises.

October 19, 2005

                  On October 19, 2005 about 3pm I went to the
                        ocean in Miami and blessed the ocean
                        pouring in again Jesus and Mary water.

 (October 19)
    I then continued to North Key Largo
 about 5PM in the afternoon
 putting in Jesus and Mary water and
 blessing the area.

     In the night October 19, I blessed the
 Atlantic Ocean north of West Palm Beach pouring in
 Jesus and Mary water about 9PM
 blessing the area. Traveling over
 70 October 20 morning, I blessed this area 
 with Jesus and Mary water - I had
 the following visions in seconds.

                            First I saw Our Lady of Lourdes clearly in the
                        grotto, high above as such — Next I
                        saw St. Anthony to the left of the grotto — my right
                        as I looked at the grotto, St. Anthony holding a baby.
                        Then I clearly saw a manger of light,
                          - concave inward - empty — (big)
                        Our Lady appeared dressed with what
                        looked like an Egyptian scarf around
                        her head in the grotto — the focus
                        was this her hands folded over her
                        chest like so 
                        Finally her hands went to high folding
                        hands — dress more white traditional
                        Mary appearance. (could have been
                        Our Lady of Fatima)

                            The grotto is where the Lourdes water
                        began — 
                        Where I had these visions was a little east of Arcadia
                        on 70, October 20.
                        It was the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes,
                        February 11, 2005 when I was told the Jesus
                        water was miraculous.                   

  

   

   

Healings

1. A gentleman from Florida called and said since he got the Fatima Statue with glass his life has been transformed. 3/3/2009

3. Ruptured ACL Ligament and PCL ligament left leg (knee) and damaged meniscus. 3-4 weeks excruciating pain. MRI showed damaged ligaments - went to do surgery and scopes revealed no damage other than meniscus injury. Day before surgery we came here to pray for healing. Wife anointed knee with Jesus water.

5. I just wanted to tell you we have had so many prayers answered most especially since we have had the image statue in our home a few months ago. Prayers being miraculously answered for our children & grandchildren, our daughter's heart has literally almost healed ... she is also pregnant and that is also a miracle that she carried the baby this far, she is so thankful and also her cardiologist can't figure out how she is doing so well, and even agreed with her it must be prayers being said for her. He also told her in her 4th month to abort the baby, maybe he will have a conversion, we hope. Others in my family have changed since we got the statue. They are more understanding and patient and love being a Catholic more than ever before ...We thank Jesus, Mary, Rita and you all. Praise all of heaven. We are also so eager to have many more prayers answered. We are giving our married children a 10 inch statue each for their homes and red prayer manual if they would also like to say the prayers if they so choose to. The statue we know will help them with many graces as they pray before it as it has helped us in our home and lives. Love you all.  8/3/2007

Three doctors told him there was nothing they could do for him. He started using Jesus' water and started feeling better (He could hardly walk, he was using a wheelchair a lot). He went back to the doctor and tests showed no more cancer — gone! The doctor told him he never saw this happen before. He is around 70 years old and walks and feels normal.   2006

14. This woman filled out a healing form at the site. I am so blessed by the Blessed Mother that she has been there for me on more than several occasions. She performed a miracle on all occasions, one in particular was cancer of the right leg. The doctors wanted to cut my leg off the cancer was in the bone. When I returned to New York and went to a plastic surgeon he saw the cat scan and said my chances weren't good. When he did the surgery the cancer was not in the bone. It was superficial.  9/2/2006

15. Stroke. Healed August 2006. 9/2/2006

I've had surgeries on both ovaries in 1998 and had very little chance of conceiving. Mother Mary gave us our blessing and wish. 7/21/2006

18. Peter was operated on for cancer he had for 10 years on his leg and because the wound was so big, they had to take some skin from another part of his leg to be able to fix it but it did split.

20. Lower back muscle strain. After straining my back I used the Jesus water before using pain crème. After putting on the water I no longer needed the crème. The strain was gone.  3/16/2006

21. Neuropathy. He had gotten Jesus water a few days ago and went to the doctor yesterday.  3/15/2006

22. Pregnancy. I could not become pregnant. I came here to ask Mary to extend her hands on me, to be able to have a child. The miracle happened. I did not know that other women had become pregnant by asking Mary. My son is 3 years old. I am convinced that he is called to be special in his life, he has a mission. When she went to see the doctor, specialists, they said forget it, she couldn't have a baby, and she went to many different ones. Came here to pray and became pregnant. All the doctors never understood what had happened. They said he is a miracle child. 3/8/2006

23. Pregnancy. Became pregnant of twin girls after we prayed in 2005 and even have a statue of the Virgin Mary in our yard. After 15 years of concubinage Virgin Mary finally blessed us. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Jesus water was used to help conceive. 2/2/2006

24. A woman came in today from New York and said she was here last March (2005) and got the Jesus water. Her cousin who was very healthy and had just retired at age 60 suffered a massive stroke. He was taken to the best neurological hospital in New York and the doctors said he had no chance of recovery. He had a blood clot at the base of his brain stem. He was in intensive care and the woman with the other family members were visiting him and she put Jesus water on him and they prayed over him, while he was laying in bed in a fetal position unable to talk was paralyzed. After she had left (only 30 minutes of visitation in Intensive Care) the woman received a call from her cousin's wife saying the man had sat up in bed after they left and was miraculously healed. He is back at home now. The doctors came in and said this was a miracle. This was 2 months ago.  1/24/2006

25. Dermatomyositis (a form of Muscular Dystrophy). I was given 6 months to live. I was really depressed ready to give up when, while being in town for my girlfriends niece's Christmas Party. I heard it on the news. (December 17, 1996) Decided why not let's go, when I got here I was not expecting to see what I saw. I couldn't believe what I saw. Within an hour I put the cane down, slowly but surely got better enough where I wasn't paralyzed or dead. Thank you Jesus and Mary.  12/16/2005

26. Small Bowel Syndrome. Infant acquired surgical intervention at birth. 4 months care at home. Healed completely as of May 2005.    11/24/2005

27. Newborn very sick - 2 lbs. My mother came to visit me. We used to live in the post apartments by Target. I brought my Mother to the Virgin Mary Building in Clearwater and she prayed for my niece, who was in Guatemala. When my Mother returned to Guatemala she took the picture of Virgin Mary and put it in my niece's room. When my niece was born, she needed a tube feeding. She couldn't eat on her own. She was very thin and very sick. Many people told my sister and my mother (including the doctors) that my niece was so sick that she probably would died. Thank to our Lady Virgin Mary, my niece is a healthy gifted 9 year old girl. - Guatemala - Healing was at 6 months old. 11-22-2005

28. My daughter was told she had thyroid cancer, after having one side of the thyroid removed they found the cancer was gone. This had to be due to Mary and Jesus Water and her belief in the Mother and Son.  9/17/2005

29. Virus. He was in Egypt. His relatives came to the site and asked for prayers for healing for him. That same day they were here he was completely healed of his Liver virus. He is a physician.  8/31/2005

30. After waiting about 8 months for the baby to get bigger for the surgery, the doctor checked him and couldn't believe it, but she said, "It just fixed itself." He was 4 months premature and this surgery would have lowered his sperm count significantly and its already been lowered by a double inguinal hernia surgery. 6-14-2005  

31. Burst tube with unexpected pregnancy. Was internal bleeding. Doctor told was miracle, surviving from this kind of operation. She (the mother) had come to the site and prayed to God if this Image (Our Lady of Clearwater) was from God to grant her a miracle. Her daughter who was in Lithuania at the time was in the hospital and the above miracle happened during the 2 hours the mother was praying at the site.  5/4/2005

32. Heart failure. He was not breathing. Jesus water was poured on him while praying. He started breathing again. 4/23/2005

33. When I was pregnant, my baby was sick. My baby born was well. Thanks.  4/18/2005

34. Flu. Both sitting in car, praying rosary both sick of flu. He very sick, not getting better. Both used the water, felt pain leave body, didn't say anything, but after few minutes he said "I feel pain is gone." They drove back to tell us that they were healed. 4/18/2005

35. Asthma. Put Jesus water on neck. Breathing much better. 4/17/2005

36. Severe back pain. Have a bad back from laying brick for years and sometimes I bend over and the pain is severe and it takes at least 3 or 4 or more weeks for it to go away. I put Jesus water on it and it went away in 2 days. Alleluia.  4/16/2005

37. I must admit that some days I forget to wash in the water. But I have felt the same feeling once again a few days ago as I did on March 2nd, the first time I applied it to my knees. On the movie that you took, I am walking on the beach without a cane. I don't know if you noticed. I didn't use the cane yesterday, and I have no pain. I'm still slow at climbing the stairs, but I'm seeing a tremendous improvement. I'll keep a journal, and continue updating you I pray a lot, as I'm applying the medicine. Part of my prayer is "If it be your will." Thank you. I'll be in touch soon. 3/11/2005

38. My husband had a good friend and he was diagnosed with cancer and given less than a few weeks to live. Jesus told me to take him the Jesus water. I never really met him, but I went to the hospital. He was so sick. He bounced up and said I knew it - I will be healed. And he lived over two years longer.  2005

39. Leukemia went into remission February 7, 2003. Her doctor can't believe how well she is doing. She has the worse kind of Leukemia there is and she is doing extremely well. He said this does not happen, so soon, we told him its because of all the prayers, everyone is saying for her. The day after we visited the Blessed Mother Building, her blood count was excellent. Thank you so much. As of 11/3/2004 she is still in remission and doing very well, a happy 10 year old little girl. We are all so thankful for all the prayers from everyone, we truly believe, if we hadn't had our faith and by going to the Virgin Mary building so often, we wouldn't have been so fortunate to have her. Prayer is still the most powerful and healing process. Thank you so much.  11/3/2004

40. Spinal Manangitas. December 16th, 2002 we almost lost our little grandson. He was taken flight for life to Madison where they worked on him for hours. They told us he would either be blind - deaf - brain damage, or he might not walk. Today he is a happy - healthy little boy full of life. Thanks to everyone's prayers to our Blessed Virgin and our heavenly Father, without them we would not have him. Thank you. As of this date November 3, 2004 our little grandson is doing very well, a healthy happy little boy, and so full of life, and without any complications. Our prayers and by going to the Virgin Mary building truly helped this little boy. Thanks to everyone for all their prayers. 11/3/2004

41. After my family visited the Virgin Mary and returned to hospital, I showed no sign of having a stroke. Doctors at hospital said I would not recover.  4/2001

                R. February 11, 1858 Lourdes

                Mary said "I am the Immaculate Conception"

                Mary desires people to come to Clearwater.

                People go to Lourdes to be healed.

                Mary: I wish people to come to Clearwater
                    and use the Mary water.
 

                I have called you to use the waters,
                    to come to Clearwater.

                R. So many come to Lourdes to be healed –

                We must listen to Mary's message –

                Mary: If you want to be healed you must
                    have faith – people come with
                    blindness to the Virgin Mary
                    building with an attitude of
                    great unbelief.
    

Luke 17: 5-6

The apostles said to the Lord, ‘Increase our faith.’ The Lord replied, ‘If you had faith like a mustard seed you could say to this mulberry tree, “Be uprooted and planted in the sea,” and it would obey you.

 

                Mary: Put the water on your hands and
                    arms, have faith in its
                    power – promote this
                    message I give –

                Many are on drugs and have lost
                    their way –
                    Many have addictions –
                    I have called for my people
                        to come to Clearwater –

                R. In December 1531
                    Mary appeared to Juan Diego
                    at Guadalupe
 


 

                R. Mexico City:

                    This is given so people will have
                        faith –

                Mary: God the Father has given my
                    image in Clearwater.
                    Your faith is so weak.
                    If you want miracles you
                    must have faith.

                You must walk humbly to the Father
                    who has given such a gift.

Excerpts from The Spirituality of Fatima

by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

   

May 13, 1917 

    "Do not be afraid, I will do you no harm..... I am from Heaven.

    "I have come to ask you to come here for six months in succession, on the 13th day, at the same hour. Later on, I will tell you who I am and what I want

    "Are you willing to offer yourselves to God and bear all the sufferings He wills to send you, as an act of reparation for the sins by which He is offended, and in supplication for the conversion of sinners?

    "Pray the Rosary every day in order to obtain peace for the world, and the end of the war." (8)

  

June 13, 1917

    "God wishes you to remain in the world for some time because He wants to use you to establish in the world the devotion to my Immaculate Heart. I promise salvation to those who embrace it, and their souls will be loved by God as flowers placed by myself to adorn His throne." (10)

  

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)

  

August 19, 1917

    She told them she was greatly displeased by the action of the mayor. As a result, the miracle promised for October would not be as impressive as originally planned. (15)

 

September 13, 1917

    More than 30,000 people were present in September, and saw a shower of mysterious white petals fall to within 10 feet of the ground before dissolving into the air. Many also saw the globe of light bearing the Lady come to rest atop the tree, and the branches bend as though someone were standing on them. Later, they saw the cloud depart into the east, from whence it had come.(16)

  

October 13, 1917

    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)

    While the people in attendance were beholding the great Miracle of the Sun, the three young visionaries, and they alone, were privileged to see striking visions in the heavens:

    As Our Lady had promised, St. Joseph had come with the Holy Family and had blessed the world. Then, Our Lady appeared as the Mother of Sorrows, accompanied by her Divine Son, Who also blessed the world. Finally, Lucy had seen the Blessed Virgin, dressed in the brown robes of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, crowned as Queen of Heaven and Earth, holding a brown Scapular in her hand, with her infant Son upon her knee. However, in none of these visions had any of the figures spoken to the children. (18)

    Besides the messages associated with the major Fatima apparitions, there were other revelations given by Our Lady. Before Jacinta died, she told of other messages given her (during her illness) by Mary:

    More souls go to Hell because of sins of the flesh than for any other reason.

    Certain fashions will be introduced that will offend Our Lord very much.

    Many marriages are not good; they do not please Our Lord and are not of God.

    Priests must be pure, very pure. They should not busy themselves with anything except what concerns the Church and souls. The disobedience of priests, to their superiors and to the Holy Father, is very displeasing to Our Lord.

    I can no longer restrain the hand of my Divine Son from striking the world with just punishments for its many crimes.

    If the government of a country leaves the Church in peace and gives liberty to our Holy Religion, it will be blessed by God.

    Tell everybody that God gives graces through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Tell them to ask grace from her, and that the Heart of Jesus wishes to be venerated together with the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Ask them to plead for peace from the Immaculate Heart of Mary, for the Lord has confided the peace of the world to her. (19)

Excerpt from the Spirituality of Fatima

by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
 

October 13, 1917

    On October 13, 1917, there were more than 70,000 people gathered in the Cova da Iria in Fatima, Portugal. They had come to observe a miracle which had been foretold by the Blessed Virgin to three young visionaries: Lucia dos Santos, and her two cousins, Jacinta and Francisco Marto. (1) Shortly after noon, Our Lady appeared to the three visionaries:

    As the Lady was about to leave, she pointed to the sun. Lucy excitedly repeated the gesture, and the people looked into the sky. The rain had ceased, the clouds parted, and the sun shone forth, but not in its usual brilliance. Instead, it appeared like a silver disc, pale as the moon, at which all could gaze without straining their eyes. Suddenly, impelled by some mysterious force, the disc began to whirl in the sky, casting off great shafts of multicolored light. Red, green, blue, yellow, violet—the enormous rays shot across the sky at all angles, lighting up the entire countryside for many miles around, but particularly the upturned faces of those 70,000 spellbound people.

    After a few moments the wonder stopped, but resumed again a second and a third time—three times in all—within about 12 minutes. It seemed that the whole world was on fire, with the sun spinning at a greater speed each time.

    Then a gasp of terror rose from the crowd, for the sun seemed to tear itself from the heavens and come crashing down upon the horrified multitude.... Just when it seemed that the ball of fire would fall upon and destroy them, the miracle ceased, and the sun resumed its normal place in the sky, shining forth as peacefully as ever.

    When the people arose from the ground, cries of astonishment were heard on all sides. Their clothes, which had been soaking wet and muddy, now were clean and dry. Many of the sick and crippled had been cured of their afflictions. (2)

July 13, 1917

THE CHILDREN SEE HELL

    As she spoke these words, Our Lady stretched out her hands, and bright rays came forth which seemed to penetrate into the earth. All at once the ground vanished, and the children found themselves standing on the brink of a sea of fire. As they peered into this dreadful place, the terrified youngsters saw huge numbers of devils and damned souls. The devils resembled hideous black animals, each filling the air with despairing shrieks. The damned souls were in their human bodies and seemed to be brown in color, tumbling about constantly in the flames and screaming with terror. All were on fire within and without their bodies, and neither devils nor damned souls seemed able to control their movements. They were tossing about in the flames like fiery coals in a furnace. There was never an instant's peace or freedom from pain.

                    attacking Britain by land and sea –

                They wanted war –

                R. The invasion of Poland September 1, 1939

                Pope John Paul II's life

                Poland was attacked from 3 directions.

                The Germans wanted to wipe out
                    Poland –

                They attacked by air and land
                    breaking through the main
                    defenses –

                Hitler attacked leaders and
                    culture, education –
                    killing Jews especially –

                Jews were put in ghettos for
                    future elimination.

                Poles were sent to consecration
                    camps

                From July 9, 2013

                R. Hope

                Mary said at Fatima – the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign
                    and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph –

                Poland was taken over by Germany 1939

                They were afraid –

                Who thought such things could be done
                    killing Jews –
                    6,000,000 Jews were killed

                They made the Jews go to the Ghetto
                Then they began removing them, exterminating
                    them – women, children, all Jews

                Many shot dead – no mercy

                Evil men killing the Jews treating them
                    like rates – exterminating

                People were full of fear and rightfully
                    so, they killed children, boarded
                    on trucks, killed – no mercy for
                    the Jews –

                They were to be exterminated –

                The soldiers forced the Jews to gas chambers,
                    shot Jews naked and they fell in pits.
                    Many dead bodies were burned –
                    They were run from their homes, they
                    took their jewelry, gold in their teeth,
                    they threw their clothes on heaps and
                    they killed many naked in showers
                    and gas chambers –

                Mass murders – no one thought could ever
                    happen –

                Mary gave this message July 13, 1917 –

                R. How could this ever happen?
                The Jew's precious things were taken by the Nazis
                Jews were lied to and led to death –

                The Germans used guns and tanks and
                    soldiers and force –

                Freedom

                God wants us to live according to
                    God's will –

                When we deviate from God's will it
                    allows evil to flourish.

                To be full of hatred and bitterness
                    is to open the door to satan –
                    to seek power for power's sake
                    is to open a door to satan –
                    to sin and continue in evil is
                    to open a door to satan and evil –

                Brute force and power, killing of the
                    Jews, dehumanization of the
                    Jews by the Nazis

                The attack was on the arts and education in
                    Poland to try to take out Polish culture –
                    intellectuals –

                Jews were forced to get on trucks,
                    trains and killed –
                    Men were shot unmercifully –
                    They killed professors, trying
                    to wipe out education –
                    No one could oppose their
                        violence
                    They killed and brutalized anyone
                        they wanted –

                They stripped Jews before they killed
                    them –
                    they attacked priests and occupied
                    Churches –

                Mockery of the Church –
                Force was used –
                Force, hatred, they tried to wipe
                    out the culture –

                While the Jews were killed, the children
                    watched this –

                The Germans, wined and dined, played,
                    raised families and acted like
                    they did no wrong –

                There was such suffering, such
                    atrocious things happening,
                    horror – no one could even
                    imagine –

                Mary appeared at Fatima and she warned
                    of what would happen –
                    They killed the sick Jews –
                    They were silent because of
                        the force and being killed,
                        horror –

                The eyes that saw such things ended
                    for most in their unmerciful
                    death.

                Evil at its heights!
                How could this happen?
                Mary warned!

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."

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.

                We need to observe the First Saturday
                    Devotion –

                We see the barren trees of winter

                In front of these trees we
                    know that we can conquer
                    satan with the blood of
                    the lamb

Through Him, With Him, In Him
 

                R. They exterminated the Jews and they
                    killed the Polish who helped Jews.

                Nazi Soldiers shot men down in cold blood.

                The light of Christ never burns out.

                We can only fight the battle with
                    love –

                In history we see the Nazi's did this and
                    evil can come back in
                    a different way –

                Mary and Jesus are the Hearts of
                    greatest love –

                How dark could World War II be with
                    the mass murders and the soldiers
                    who were killed fighting the Nazis –

                We can't stop where we are
                    we have to go on to fight
                    for this renewal of the
                    Church and the world.

                Jesus gave us these prayers –

                Men are suffering now, the further
                    they go from God –

                Mary's message has begged us
                    to reach the children.

                The loss of loved ones is devastating,
                    what about the loss of a soul
                    forever –
                    this is Mary's message –

                God has called us to be a
                    positive witness of hope –
                    We cannot underestimate
                    how God is calling us to
                    respond to Mary's message –

                Jesus: I have called you to spread this
                    message. God the Father has given you
                    the Clearwater vision –

                    How can you ignore Me for
                        your irritations?

                    I am sick for the gifts I have
                        give, not given to the greatest
                        saints.

                    The ingratitude!

                Let Me tell you – you have
                    tried to make right - wrong and
                    wrong - right, blocking the
                    Father's will – opening doors
                    to satan –

                While the message I give is
                    ignored –
                    The message to tell you what
                    you must do to go to the
                    Reign of My Sacred Heart and triumph
                    of Mary's Immaculate Heart –

                When the energy one has to go
                    above just authority is the only
                    enthusiasm one has – they
                    are serving satan –

                A person doing God's will has
                    energy to serve under
                    the just authority and
                    support the authority one
                    is called to serve – not
                    oppose those over them –

                Energy is negative energy from
                    satan when people under
                    just authority challenge
                    those over them in competition,
                    rather than being obedient

                You are under God, I work in
                    structure – I work in just
                    authority –

                The Church has very defined
                    structure.

                I call people to their vocation and
                    they are to respond by serving
                    to help build My Kingdom.
                    To study the messages during
                    the retreats rather than
                    ignore them and do your
                    own thing. I am giving
                    messages that are being ignored
                    and disobeyed that are major
                    to the mission Mary began
                    at Fatima.

                    Do not block My Mission –
                or compete with the
                message I have given and My
                Mother has given –

                I want these rosaries from
                    July 3rd and 5th transcribed
                    immediately –
                    then the messages of July 4th

                I am the ultimate mystery –
                I have given you insight into
                    the Divine Mysteries – do
                    not ignore Me, the Ministries
                    and do your own thing –

                I am Jesus, this is an important
                    message, I give in this
                    month, 96 years after
                    the Fatima message of
                    July 13, 1917.

                I came to this earth that you
                    could be saved.

                Song: A Song from Jesus

                Mary: God the Father allowed me to
                appear at Clearwater. He wants
                my message circulated –
                I am the Queen of Peace –

                Unless a sufficient number of people
                    have consecrated their hearts
                    to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
                    you will not have peace in the world.

                The priests can suffer –

                Jesus has begged you for 19 years
                    to spread His prayers. 


 

                Mary: The priest is such a gift.

                You must pray for them and take this
                    seriously.

                Jesus: I want you to carry the Prayer for Union
                    in your pockets and say it all
                    through the day.

                Mary: The abortion of the babies must stop,
                    Pray as Jesus has taught you.

                The religious suffered during World War II.

                Now the devil is attacking
                    sisters, brothers and priests –

                You must pray as Jesus has called you.

                Rita is a messenger for me and Jesus,
                    obey the messages or
                    you will suffer more and more –

 

                July 9, 2013

                R. God loves man –
                God created us –
                God gave us the world –
                God gave us gifts –
                God created us in His image and likeness –

                Man sinned,
                Man rebelled against a good God –

 

Soul of Christ

Soul of Christ, sanctify me
Body of Christ, save me
Blood of Christ, inebriate me
Water from the side of Christ wash me
Passion of Christ, strengthen me
O good Jesus, hear me
Within Thy wounds hide me
Permit me not to be separated from Thee
From the wicked foe defend me
at the hour of my death call me
and bid me come to Thee
That with Thy saints I may praise Thee
For ever and ever. Amen.

 

                    From The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. p.11

21.                     SPIRITUAL EXERCISES

    Which have as their purpose the conquest of self
    and the regulation of one's life in such a way that
    no decision is made under the influence of any
    inordinate attachment
 

p. 12

                        23. FIRST PRINCIPLE AND FOUNDATION

                            Man is created to praise, reverence and serve God 
                        our Lord, and by this means to save his soul.

   

                R. God is over us
                We see the vast world
                God is the Creator
                We are the creatures –
                We were created by God for a purpose –

                God gave us gifts, all we need to
                    serve Him as He wants, to
                    develop these gifts to help in
                    the building of God's Kingdom –

                Sing: Seek Ye First

                R. We must be true to ourselves –

                We must seek this unity with God to
                    know ourselves –
                    Conversion –
                    To die to the ways not like Jesus –
                    To rise in the ways that make us more like Jesus

                We came into this world in the womb of a
                    physical mother – We were molded
                    in her womb –

                We were the fruit of an act of our Mother and
                    Father and God loved us into existence –
                    God has a purpose for our lives –
                    A purpose now and to effect others
                        when we are gone by how we
                        lived our life –

                    We are here to know, love and serve God
                        and to love our neighbor as
                        ourselves.

                We are to examine our conscience and see if
                    we are operating according to God's will or
                    if we are opposing God's will of harmony
                    and love and service as He intends.

                We are to examine our conscience twice
                    a day, Fr. Carter said – He did an examine
                    twice a day –

                Take your spiritual pulse –

                See where you are spiritually – is the
                    devil tainting your actions –

                Are they selfish, jealous, prideful,
                    because of anger,

                Have you ceased to focus on God's will
                    and treated others in selfishness,
                    Have you taken care to eat – so the
                    devil isn't operating you through
                    low blood sugar, or whatever
                    happens when one disobeys the
                    laws of God with regard to
                    proper nutrition throughout
                    the day –

                Is there a particular calling - God wants of you –
                    in your vocation – so you avoid it
                    and only have energy when you are
                    promoting yourself and
                    disobeying authority –

                Are you unable to take correction when you
                    are under authority – so you become
                    angry and strike out, resist correction,
                    and the furthering of building the
                    family, community, parish because
                    you have negative energy coming for having
                    your own way - opposed to correction
                    and authority.

                Do you do what you want against authority,
                    and don't report upward –

                Calling yourself free, when satan is
                    stepping-in 'running the ship' while
                    you ignore the laws and rules and
                    people God has given to tell you
                    what you should do.

                Energy that comes centered in fighting authority
                    and proving you are right when you
                    disobeyed or acted against what authority
                    wanted, or with sins of omission
                    with regard to one's leadership and
                    the need to report upward, are
                    all ways satan tricks someone to
                    seize control.

                The person is so focused on themselves and
                    being right when they are wrong –
                    resisting correction –

                    They fail to see a job God wants done and
                they work for satan blocking the job that
                He wants for the building of the Kingdom.

                    Examining our conscience when one
                is responsible under just authority is
                this – Have I obeyed those over me?
                    Have I challenged to argument and
                    wasted time and energy, to
                    focus on myself, am I trying
                    to get my way and is there
                    negative energy coming from
                    being in desolation in trying to
                    control for control sake –

                A spiritual director is to help one discern
                    the spirits to see if they are from
                    the Holy Spirit, the devil, or just a
                    person's own will.

                In religious orders - God gives a
                    spiritual director and the person
                    under a spiritual director is to trust
                    and to obey the direction when satan
                    is working and it is pointed out to them.

                Jesus, in these daily messages has given to us
                    message after message how satan
                    works in relationships, families,
                    communities etc.

                The devil we see in the world is pressing
                    down and decisions of men become
                    laws that are against God's commandments.

                When one is under just authority and the only energy
                    they have is when they are doing
                    their own will, when they want,
                    how they want and they fight any
                    correction, any way to change their
                    wrong decisions –
                    they have seized the floor for satan
                    who wants to trick people, like
                    Eve in the garden –
                    to try to show wrong is right and
                    right is wrong.

                Jesus: I am the way, the truth and the life.
                    There is a job to do in the building of
                    My Kingdom here on earth. When a
                    person is in desolation and is a leader
                    under one in authority and does not
                    take correction, forcing their disobedience
                    on the institution or place –
                    the negative energy that they have to
                    fight just authority is wrong from the
                    beginning.

                Just authority is given to obey, even if
                    one under authority thinks they have
                    a better idea or are better than
                    the authority or those they chose.
                    Being under authority means you
                    obey and work for the good of all.

                Religious orders have been under the
                    vows of poverty, chastity and
                    obedience for almost 2000 years.

                Children are to obey parents under the
                    4th commandment.

                This is order.

                From the sin of Adam and Eve –
                    disorder entered the world –
                    evil from the rejection of the Divine will –
                    responsibility to obedience to the Divine will –

                God is the Creator –

                The world was serene and beautiful, peaceful,
                    harmonious, loving, good and
                    orderly without sin –
                    without violence –
                    without evil –

                You are here, in God's timing because you
                    were chosen to be here by God and to
                    do God's will for My purpose.
                    You are creatures – God is your Creator –

                The devil wants you to try to be above God.

   

Romans 8: 5-9

Those who are living by their natural inclinations have their minds on the things human nature desires; those who live in the Spirit have their minds on spiritual things. And human nature has nothing to look forward to but death, while the Spirit looks forward to life and peace, because the outlook of disordered human nature is opposed to God, since it does not submit to God's Law, and indeed it cannot, and those who live by their natural inclinations can never be pleasing to God. You, however, live not by your natural inclinations, but by the Spirit, since the Spirit of God has made a home in you. Indeed, anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.

   

                Jesus: You are to be a new creation in Me –
                I give to you the gift of baptism –

                Being willful
                Opposing God's will
                Has bad consequences.

                God is telling you how to live –
                I give you directions –
                I give you the 10 Commandments –
                I give you My Word –

                The Our Father says
                    "Thy will be done on earth as
                        it is in heaven"

                Heaven is a reward promised to those
                    who loved and served the Lord
                    and are obedient
                    to the will of God –

Before the festival of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come to pass from this world to the Father, having loved those who were his in the world, loved them to the end.

 

                R. John Paul was referred to as John Paul
                    the Great

                Pope John Paul II was a small boy
                    when his mother died.

                During the war –
                    between 1939 - 1945
                    Karol lost his father –

                His father was like his first seminary
                    teacher.

                Karol worked in a quarry.
                Karol went through the war.
                Karol had Jewish friends and
                    watched them die and
                    suffer –

                Karol went in the seminary
                    during the war –

                Karol was ordained after the war –

                He had a doctors in Philosophy 1948
                He had a doctors in Sacred Theology 1954

                In 1958 he was Auxiliary Bishop
                    Of Krakow by Pope Pius XII

                Pope John Paul II had served as pope
                    for over a quarter of the 20th

                We cannot even list how his
                    background in Poland
                    during World War II brought
                    so much good to the
                    world while he was pope –

                We see how Hitler set out to wipe out
                    Poland and

                How John Paul II emerged from that
                    nightmare of horror Poland
                    suffered

                And the all good God gave to the
                    world such a man for over
                    25 years as pope!!

                God wants the world to be formed
                    more and more in His image and
                    likeness.

                God will bless us, if we obey
                    Him and love Him and love
                    and serve Him and love
                    each other –

                God has given us the priests and

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.

EVANGELIUM VITAE PRAYER

By His Holiness Pope John Paul II

“O Mary,
Bright dawn of the new world,
Mother of the living,
To you do we entrust the cause of life:
Look down, O Mother,
Upon the vast numbers
Of babies not allowed to be born,
Of the poor whose lives are made difficult,
Of men and women
Who are victims of brutal violence,
Of the elderly and the sick killed
By indifference or out of misguided mercy.
Grant that all who believe in your Son
May proclaim the Gospel of life
With honesty and love
To the people of our time.
Obtain for them the grace
To accept the Gospel
As a gift ever new,
The joy of celebrating it with gratitude
Throughout our lives
And the courage to bear witness to it
Resolutely, in order to build,
Together with all people of good will,
The civilization of truth and love,
To the praise and glory of God,
The Creator and lover of life

BENEATH THE CROSS

- By St. Edith Stein

Today I stood with you beneath the Cross,
And felt more clearly than I ever did
That you became our Mother only there.
Even an earthly mother faithfully
Seeks to fulfill the last will of her son.
But you became the handmaid of the Lord;
The Life and being of the God made Man
Was perfectly inscribed in your own life.
So you could take your own into your heart,
And with the lifeblood of your bitter pains
You purchased life anew for every soul.
You know us all, our wounds, our imperfections;
But you know also the celestial radiance
Which your Son’s love would shed on us in Heaven.
Thus carefully you guide our faltering footsteps,
No price too high for you to lead us to our goal.
But those whom you have chosen for companions
To stand with you around the eternal throne,
They here must stand with you beneath the cross,
And with the lifeblood of their bitter pains
Must purchase heavenly glory for those souls
Whom God’s own Son entrusted to their care.

                            (Cited in and translated by Hilda Graef, The Scholar and the Cross [Westminster: The Newman Press, 1955], 15).

                  

                From September 1, 2013

                R. Jesus appeared to me on August 12, 2013
                as we prayed in China. His hand was under
                His Heart and He touched the bottom
                rubbing it for 1 1/2 hours, telling us
                we need to focus on love.

PRO-LIFE MOTHER OF MOTHERS

- By Pope John Paul II

O Mary, bright dawn of the new world, Mother of the living, to you do we entrust the cause of life: Look down, O Mother, upon the vast numbers of babies not allowed to be born, of the poor whose lives are made difficult, of men and women who are victims of brutal violence, of the elderly and the sick killed by indifference or out of misguided mercy. Grant that all who believe in your Son may proclaim the Gospel of life with honesty and love to the people of our time.

Patricia’s story

Planned Parenthood and the body parts

 

                R. When Pope John Paul II was ordained 1946 –
                    I was born

 

                From January 3, 2006

   

 

          In speaking of Fatima, Pope John Paul II also speaks of the rosary.

On May 12, 1982, Pope John Paul II made a pilgrimage to Fatima. One of his motives for his visit was to offer thanks for Mary’s intercession in saving his life relative to the assassination attempt a year earlier.

Some fifteen years later in 1997, the Holy Father gave us the following words regarding Fatima. Lynne Weil, a newspaper reporter, gives this account: "Pope John Paul said the series of Marian apparitions at Fatima, Portugal, rank as one of the most significant events of this century.

"The string of apparitions that ended 80 years ago was ‘one of the greatest’ signs of the times, ‘also because it announces in its message many of the signs that followed and it invites (us) to follow their call’, the pope said in a letter to Bishop Serafim de Sousa Ferreire Silva of Leiria - Fatima, Portugal. The message, dated October 1, was released at the Vatican October 14 (1997).

"Pope John Paul said the event at Fatima ‘helps us to see the hand of God’ even in the 20th century, with its wars and other mass tragedies. And it showed that despite having ‘removed itself from God’, humanity was offered God’s protection, the pontiff said.

"Pope John Paul recalled that in Gospel accounts of Jesus’ death, he invoked clemency on his captors even as he was being crucified and entrusted humanity to the care of his mother, Mary.

"The pope repeated the exhortation stemming from the Marian apparitions at Fatima that the faithful recite the rosary every day. He asked pastors to recite the rosary, and to teach others to recite it, daily. —CNS"    From Priestly Newsletter 2000 Issue 3

                This terror in life of any person –
                    War - effects the human spirit

                In World War II, the world was at war –
                    There was attack by land
                    There was attack by sea
                    There were tanks, submarines,
                        war ships –

                There was not a front line –
                    Aggression was the purpose in
                        many cases –
                    Others were defending themselves –
                    Money was being "dished" out for war –
                    Lives were blown up in a second –

                Even the Vatican suffered so much
                    in Italy during World War II

                    The demon of war did not hold,
                even the pope, sacred. Religious were
                killed, shot, in World War II.

                    Pope John Paul II, then a priest,
                Bishop etc. in Poland knew war.

                    Pope Pius XII knew war –

                    These men were courageous leaders
                in the Church.

                At the beginning of World War II, 6 million
                    German men were in uniform –

                The Battle of the Bulge - December 16, 1944, one of the
                    United States greatest losses – weakened
                    the German troops –
                    they dwindled – soon to die the next
                    year

                Germany at the beginning produced
                    about 10,000 air crafts a year
                    5,000 tanks a year between
                    1940 - 1943;
                    in 1944 Germany produced an average
                    of 23,000 tanks a year

                In Hitler's twisted thinking he
                    hated the Jews –

                There were death factories to exterminate
                    them under Hitler –

                By 1942 Jews were sent in trains
                    to be executed – killing them
                    immediately – shooting
                    women and children

                The Nazi's murdered 6 million Jews
                    about 300,000 survived the horror.

                The World was at War –

                Japan bombed the United States at Pear Harbor
                    December 7, 1941

                On December 7, 1996 Jesus gave me this
                    writing –
   

December 7, 1996 First Saturday -
Revelations on the Light
