From Today's Mass

Acts 5:27-33

When they had brought them in to face the Sanhedrin, the high priest demanded an explanation. 'We gave you a strong warning', he said, 'not to preach in this name, and what have you done? You have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and seem determined to fix the guilt for this man's death on us.' In reply Peter and the apostles said, 'Obedience to God comes before obedience to men; it was the God of our ancestors who raised up Jesus, whom you executed by hanging on a tree. By his own right hand God has now raised him up to be leader and Saviour, to give repentance and forgiveness of sins through him to Israel. We are witnesses to this, we and the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him.' This so infuriated them that they wanted to put them to death.


Messenger: Many did not want us to deliver the message of Jesus and Mary. They tried to block us.

Jesus wants us to pray the prayers for the priests and the renewal of the Church and the world, (Shepherds of Christ Prayer Manual).

Mary wants us to follow her Peace Plan.

Even though some men have tried to block us, we still try to deliver the message given from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Jesus called us the Apostles of His Sacred Heart on that last Tuesday of August, 1994, as I drove to the first meeting of our core chapter at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. Sunday in the rosary He again called us the Apostles of His Sacred Heart.

Almost five years later, I ask you to hear the messages of Jesus and Mary and please help us. We must pray for our world. We are one body, we must pray for each other.

Message from Mary April 15, 1999

My children, you are brothers and sisters in the father's family. If one suffers, you all suffer. You must see yourselves as one and pray for each other. My Son has given you His prayers to pray for your priests, the Church and the world, (Shepherds of Christ Prayer Manual). My children, please, I beg you to listen to us. You must pray for each other.

GOOD SHEPHERD

I am the Good Shepherd, these are My prayers, the prayers I give to help renew the Church and the world, all prayer chapters are asked to include these prayers (found in the Shepherds of Christ Prayer Manual). As My Apostles and Shepherds I ask you to encourage all existing Chapters to try to encourage all existing prayer groups to pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers. Encourage all Churches to pray these prayers. It is most urgent that the people of this earth concur with the Father's wishes to begin Prayer Chapters. This is an urgent request from the Good Shepherd. The flock will become one when they have given their hearts to Jesus and Mary. Encourage all priests to pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers. Your world will be lighted with great light as the people of this earth pray these prayers.

My promise is this to you My beloved earth: When you give your heart to Me and spread the devotion to My Sacred Heart, I will write your name In My Heart. I promise to give the greatest graces when you pray these prayers for renewal of the Church and the world and take all who pray them deeply into My Heart.

Consecration of Homes
to the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart

August 27, 1998 Daily Message (excerpt)

Mary:

I further ask that brochures be made available that my children may easily consecrate their homes. These are to be circulated in Florida and elsewhere.

I ask this information be clearly given here on the Internet. Entitle this: “Consecrate Your Homes”.

My children this consecration can be used for businesses.

Churches and schools need to be consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. This can be done with the material I will give to you.

It would be very helpful that this be done in the Churches during a special Mass for this purpose.

The more the world consecrates their hearts, homes and businesses to the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart, the more the world will know peace.

I am the Queen of Peace, the Virgin Mary, Our Lady of the Holy Rosary, I speak to you at my image site in Florida.

Will you help me reach my children with the consecration and the rosary?

I stood beneath the cross of my Son, Jesus and I cried.

Please help me, this is real my children. I love you so.


July 15, 1998 Daily Message

Mary:

My dear little ones,

I stood beneath the cross of my Son and I cried tears of sorrow and of joy. I appear on this building that you will stand with me under His cross and live your life in love.

His lesson is love to His death on the cross. He loved His enemies, those who persecuted Him. Do you see Him my children with His hands outstretched before you? I wish a crucifix to be placed at the site in the main window beside my image. My eyes are always on My Son Jesus crucified and my heart knows His resurrection from the dead.

Stand with me under His cross. He is your King. His Sacred Heart will rule this earth, all buildings and hearts must be consecrated to Him. On July 5, 1998 Our Lord asked that this place be consecrated to His Heart and My Heart, He descended on this site in the place of His statue. He will rule all kingdoms of this earth.

I am Mary your Mother, I ask that the 10 Commandments be read at every prayer meeting here.

I give to you the rule which God commands you to live by. I ask you to pray for the children of this earth for they are being taught so many sinful things in their own homes through the television. I am so sorry for the little ones and what your world has taught them.

Tell the children about their Mother. Encourage youth to come on Sunday to pray with me for their Church and their world. All the hours of the day spent on so many useless things. I want to teach them to pray as I taught my Son Jesus from an early age. I am their Heavenly Mother, I love them more than any earthly mother. I want to teach them to pray my rosary and to pray for their Church and their world, I want to teach them to pray for my priest-sons. I want them to learn about my Son Jesus. I want them to know about God and I want to teach them to be children of God.

I appear here to teach the children of this earth through my Rosary and the prayers of the Good Shepherd.

I want to teach you my children. I am Mary your Mother, I repeat the request I first made to this earth two days after I appeared.


April 12, 1999 Daily Message (excerpt)

Jesus:

I wish a card to be circulated extensively. All that is necessary to consecrate a place to My Heart and My Mother’s Heart is that the people wish to do so and say that they consecrate the place and the people that dwell there to Our Hearts. It is understood that you are entrusting people who live or come there to the care of Our two Hearts. Pictures or statues of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart should be displayed somewhere in the dwelling. Some persons, if not all, should spend time in devotion to the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart before the pictures, daily if possible. This consecration should be renewed daily if possible.

Notes

1. The Two Hearts and the Mass

    (To be read by leader or a family member)

Jesus:

"My beloved friend, tell My people that they are living in the Age of the Two Hearts - that of My Heart and Mary's Heart. My people live in the initial stages of this great era. I call My people to take up their refuge in My Heart and My Mother's Heart. In Our Hearts they will become more and more transformed into My likeness.

"The greatest source for growth in devotion to Our Hearts is the Eucharist. I wish My people to attend Mass often, daily if possible. What a great gift I have given to My people in the Eucharist! Yet many of My people are indifferent to the treasures contained in the Mass. Think of it! My people are privileged to offer the Sacrifice of the Mass together with Me! And yet how many prefer to do other things rather than attend Mass. How this attitude offends My Sacred Heart!

"I long for My people to participate in the Mass and to receive Me worthily! Think of it! I, Who am your God, long to come to you each day! In the Eucharist I come to you in My Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. Present within you, I long to take you close to My Sacred Heart, this Heart which is truly within you. The more you allow Me to do so, the more closely I press you to this Heart. I shower you with its riches. I abundantly give you great graces which increasingly form you in My likeness.

"I am Lord and Master! Please listen to My words. Pray, pray for a deeper understanding of the Mass. In union with Mary, approach Me daily in the Eucharist. I, your God, long to come to you. How much do you long to receive Me?"1

2. SONG: I Love You Jesus

3. PROCESSION - to the enthroning of the Sacred Heart Picture

(All in attendance can be lead by the leaders and family to the place of the Sacred Heart picture.)

4. SONG:

To Jesus Heart All Burning or I Love You, Jesus

5. PRAYER: Apostles Creed

All: I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell; the third day he arose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven; sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

6. Enthronement of My Sacred Heart

    (To be read by leader or family member)

We are gathered here to honor our King, Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is our most honored guest. He loves us so ardently and wants to be King of our home and King of our hearts. We all join together and most graciously welcome Him in our midst. We love You, dear Sacred Heart of Jesus. We honor You this day and are privileged that You, God, love us so much.

Please help us all grow in our knowledge and love of You. We honor You. We praise You. We adore You, and we love You.

We ask You to come and dwell in our hearts. As our King and the center of our lives, we forever want to be with You, most Sacred Heart of Jesus, we love You so much.

Come and be with every member of this family in a special way. Guard us in our undertakings. Dear Holy Spirit, lead us to the on-fire love of Jesus' Heart.

Mary, our most loving Mother, as you carried Jesus in your womb, you who cared for Him as a child, you who forever stood by Him and walked with Him on Calvary, you, dear Mary, as you stood under His cross and suffered so for love of Him and us, you who held His lifeless body under the cross, you who saw His glorified Body after the resurrection and watched Him ascend into heaven, you, dear Mary, you who know this most Sacred, tender, loving Heart, place us so gently into His most Sacred Heart.

Protect and lead every person present and their families to this intense union with your Son. We pray for the priests the world over, Your special anointed sons, to lead all children to the love of Your most Sacred Heart.

May the Sacred Heart of Jesus forever reign in the hearts of all people through the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

We praise You, we honor You, our beloved Jesus. We tenderly love Your Heart so!

Dear Father, thank You for Your beloved Son. Thank You for Your gifts to us. We thank You for giving us a sharing in Your divine life through baptism. We are Your beloved children. Draw us ever closer to union with God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit and Mary, in communion with the angels and saints. Amen. 2

7. Images of the Hearts of Jesus and Mary

    (To be read by leader or family member)

Jesus:

"My beloved friend, tell My people that I desire them to have pictures or statues of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart in their homes. This will greatly help them to give honor to Our Hearts. All My churches and chapels should also have these images. I will bestow great blessings on all who heed My request. I am your Lord and Master. Please do as I ask." 3

8. Find Refuge in My Most Sacred Heart

    (To be read by leader or family member)

Jesus:

My dear child, I bless your home in a special way. May the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary ever reign in your hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Please spread devotion to My most Sacred Heart. Tell people to hang pictures of My Sacred Heart and My Mother's heart throughout their homes. I will bless in a special way any home that hangs My picture and that of My Mother, her Immaculate Heart and My Sacred Heart.

Read the promises of the Sacred Heart to people and circulate them among your friends. Tell them to pray to Us all through the day. Such devotion will be the key to your happiness now and in your everlasting life to come.

Tell people to carry pictures of My Sacred Heart and Mary's Immaculate Heart in their pockets and purses and to look at Our pictures when praying to us. When you are having a difficult day, reach for Our pictures and find refuge in My most Sacred Heart.

How deep is the love I and My Mother have for you? Our love is deeper than any human mind can imagine. Come into My Heart and be protected from all kinds of weather. The wind may blow and the fire of love may grow dim in your hearts, but it forever burns brightly when you are sheltered by My most Sacred Heart. If the wind blows and the rain comes, you will never lose the flame of My love if you have taken refuge in My most Sacred Heart.

Mary leads you to the closest union with Me. Go to Mary, see her, let her lead you deeply into My Heart. She loves you so. She is your most loving Mother. She is pure and tender of heart. It is through her you will experience such intimacy with Me. It is through her Heart that you are lead to the deepest union with the one, triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

I am your most Sacred Heart. I am Jesus, Son of God. I am a burning furnace of endless love, waiting to shelter you in My Heart. Come to Me, My beloved ones. I love you so. 4

(Song: I Am Your Sacred Heart)

9. Consecrate Your Churches, Home and Workplace to Our Hearts

    (To be read by leader or family member)

Jesus:

I want you to consecrate the human race to Sacred Heart of Jesus. I want to be enthroned in all homes, churches, and businesses.

June is the month of the Sacred Heart. I want to be King and Center of all hearts. I will keep My promises given to St. Margaret Mary of Alacoque. I promise all this from My most Sacred Heart. Consecrate your chapter to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Consecrate the church or room in which you hold your meeting.

Today is First Friday. I want you to circulate the message I gave to you on consecrating your homes to My Sacred Heart. Make booklets available for people to be able to consecrate their homes and businesses easily. Use the message I gave to you when you consecrated your home.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. Consecrate all homes and business to Our Two Hearts. Tell all to have displayed and honored, pictures of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. May and June are the months of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Tell all to consecrate their homes to Our Two Hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. On this day, the 5th of May, First Friday, I request that you spend the next two months encouraging all to do this consecration.

Gather your friends and say the prayers I have instructed you to say. Sing “To Jesus Heart All Burning” and “Immaculate Mary”. May these Two Hearts of love give all members of the human race peace, joy and love in their hearts.

Messenger:

Jesus says he desire to be honored by men in the Blessed Sacrament.

Jesus:

Circulate the Blue Book messages. They promote this devotion. How My Heart is filled with happiness by the souls who come to the tabernacle and sit with Me. I am Jesus Christ, I wait and long and thirst for My precious souls to come. The souls of men have turned cold. I want souls to come daily to Communion and be with Me in front of the tabernacle.

Men’s hearts have turned cold. They do not know what love really means. I want hearts that are filled with fire for love of God. Men’s hearts have turned to stone.

You are to promote devotion to My most Sacred Heart. I want hearts to burn with love for My Heart. It is through Me that you will know the Father’s love. I am the Way, I am the Truth, I am the Life.

Offer a holy hour for the indifference, ingratitude, and sacrileges committed against Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the Sacrament of His greatest love.

Messenger:

He promises great graces to those who give reparation to His Sacred Heart and who tell others about offering reparation to Him. 5
