Prayer for Grace for our Country

Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our new president as he takes office. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

                R. Easter Joy –
 

John 3: 16-21

    For God sent his Son into the world 
    not to judge the world, 
    but so that through him 
        the world might be saved. 
    No one who believes in him 
    will be judged; 
    but whoever does not believe 
        is judged already, 
    because that person does not believe 
    in the Name of God’s only Son. 
    And the judgement is this: 
    though the light has come into the world 
    people have preferred 
    darkness to the light 
    because their deeds were evil. 
    And indeed, everybody who does wrong 
    hates the light and avoids it, 
    to prevent his actions 
        from being shown up; 
    but whoever does the truth 
    comes out into the light, 
    so that what he is doing 
        may plainly appear as done in God.’

 

                R. This is the truth – that God
                loves us so much and God created
                us and wants us with Him
                eternally in heaven. This is the
                Good News that Jesus died for our
                sins and Jesus rose on the 3rd
                day.

                    It is truth this tremendous
                love God has for us. The
                scripture is truth, this is
                so wonderful that God loves
                us so much, that God loved us
                into existence – it is so good –
                that God wants us eternally with
                Him in paradise, that Jesus
                died for our sins and God wants
                us to ask for forgiveness of our
                sins and if we come with the
                right disposition, a firm
                purpose of amendment and
                sorrow for sin – God will
                forgive us.

                    This is truth that God
                loves us and will forgive us
                for sins if we come with the right
                disposition and ask and He
                offers those who ask, mercy.

                    We lie to ourselves if we
                tell ourselves it's not this
                good. We need to see the truth
                in how good God is, how
                good this is and know God
                truly loves us.

                    God intended us to live the
                Christ-life, to put on Christ –
                to allow God to operate in us –
                This is Easter joy – This is truth –
                This is so Good – It is the Good News.
                If we look at it like it is less
                than it is and think of
                God doesn't love me this much,
                like, "oh I want to look at this less
                than it really is" – it's a lie –
                We start with a lie by being
                pessimistic about this
                truth of God's love for us.

                    Lies in our hearts turn us
                from God. We need a heart
                embracing the truth of the
                Good News – the way it truly is –
                This is Easter joy – to live
                the life, death and resurrection
                in our lives. This is joy to
                follow in the footsteps of Jesus.
                Our hearts were made for God –
                in this is our happiness.

                    This incarnation goes on
                in us. We live the Christ-life,
                we live life in the Holy Spirit with
                Mary our Mother at our side.
                We embrace the cross of Christ –
                we live the life of resurrection
                in Him –

                Second Vatican Council

                    "... the liturgy is the summit
                toward with the activity of
                the Church is directed, at the
                same time it is the fountain
                from which all her power flows"

 

 


 
 

Excerpt from Mother at Our side by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.

Twelve

The Sacraments, The Mass, And Eucharistic Adoration

"…the liturgy is the summit toward which the activity of the Church is directed; at the same time it is the fountain from which all her power flows." (The Second Vatican Council).29

The liturgy is the public worship of the Church. The above statement of Vatican II vividly reminds us that our Christian existence is rooted in the liturgical action of the Church. Two very important dimensions of the Church's liturgy are the sacraments, and--most importantly--the Mass.

Christ offers himself through the Church and her sacraments so that we might become ever more united with Him. This incorporation into Christ begins at baptism, through which we become a member of Christ and His Church. It means being assimilated to His paschal mystery of death-resurrection, since this was the summary event of Christ's existence. Death-resurrection was the central mystery by which Christ gave us life, and it is the central mystery which each Christian must relive in Christ.

Each one of tile sacraments deepens our incorporation into Jesus' death-resurrection. Each one achieves this in a somewhat different manner according to its primary purpose. Finally, and very importantly, each of the sacraments deepens this incorporation within an ecclesial framework. The sacraments, because they are realities of both Christ and His Church, intensify our relationship not only with Jesus, but also with the members of the Church, and with all others also.

Our contact with the death-resurrection of Jesus is most especially renewed and deepened through our participation in the Eucharistic sacrifice--the Mass. It shows the intimate connection between the sacraments and the Mass, as both intensify our assimilation to Jesus in His paschal mystery of death-resurrection.

The Eucharistic sacrifice makes present the Christ-event or mystery of Christ as centered in Jesus' death-resurrection. He, WO was the priest and victim upon Calvary, is also the priest and victim in the Eucharistic sacrifice. Christ becomes really present through the words of consecration. Hence, in an unbloody manner, He makes present tile one sacrifice of Calvary. Obviously, we were not active participants in Christ's sacrifice on Calvary. However, in the Mass, Christ invites us to offer along with Him. This Eucharist is Christ's sacrifice, but, by God's gracious design, it is also the Church's sacrifice.

In the Mass we offer ourselves along with Christ Who is chief priest and victim. As Christ's offering of Himself is present in the Eucharistic sacrifice, so likewise is our offering of ourselves. Furthermore, just as Christ's offering on Calvary included everything in His life, so also the offering we make of ourselves at the Eucharist should include all those actions we perform according to God's will in Christ--being properly with pain, frustration, failure, misunderstanding, boredom, anguish of spirit--this is what we offer at the altar. Loving another, and being loved by that other, enjoying success, feeling satisfaction in a task well done, enjoying meals shared with loved ones, drinking in the morning freshness, feeling the cool spring breeze, relishing the magnificent colors of autumn leaves--all this we also offer with Jesus. The Eucharistic offering gathers up what would otherwise be fragmented pieces of our lives and gives them a marvelous unity, a Christic unity. The Eucharistic sacrifice unites all these aspects of our lives with the love, 41e beauty, and the strength of Jesus' offering and presents them to the Father in the Holy Spirit with Mary our Mother at our side. As Mary was present at Calvary's offering, so is she present as that sacrifice really becomes present in an unbloody manner in the Mass.

At the Eucharistic meal--at communion time--we receive Christ in a very special and intimate manner. He gives Himself to us--body, blood, soul, and divinity. What an awesome reality! We have to pray for an increased appreciation of this tremendous Self-giving on the part of Jesus. We have to pray for the grace to glow in the determination to love and live Christ more deep1y as we leave each Mass. This ever greater love for Christ, this ever greater putting on of Christ, should be the result of each Eucharistic participation.

The Christ Who loves us with an unfathomable love, Who gives Himself so completely to us in each Euchalistic meal, wants us to allow Him to live in and through us in an ever greater fashion. If He, in His great love for us gives Himself completely to us, should not we strive for our own complete gift of self to Jesus? Obviously, our gift of self will never equal Christ's perfect gift of Himself to us, but we can always grow in our gift of self by permeating it with an ever greater love. The love of Christ's Eucharistic Heart, this Heart which for love of us was pierced with a soldier's lance as He hung in agony upon the cross, calls for this love of ours. Who can refuse Him? Who wants to refuse Him?  end of excerpt

 

                R. Fr. Carter and my messages
                are in one voice with the
                truths in God.

Raging Fire of His Love

Notes:

R. I go to the whitest, hottest chamber of Jesus’ Heart. I unite to the Father. I am permeated by the Holy Spirit. I unite to the consecrated host in this deepest center as it is raised during the Mass.

I hear the burning, raging fire of His love, it is a roar.

I know You, Jesus, in this rosary

Jesus said in the Gospel, “you stiff-necked people - you circumcise your hearts.”

I have been praying, going to this deepest center of Jesus’ Heart, united to the Father and the Holy Spirit - there in the Heart of Mary.

Galatians 2:19-20

...I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me.

 

                April 23, 1996 - 5:00 am

In the Deepest Chamber

R. I am consumed with love for God. I am learning each day more and more the meaning of love. He teaches me about love, in all those I encounter. I love God with all my heart and all my soul and I become one in Him. To be one in Him, I cannot help but love all others. I love them with a deeper love, the more I dwell in His Heart. As I am one in Him, I feel His love for them.

I love deeply those who He deeply loves. My love for them is deeper as I love through His Heart.

I taught Fr. Carter’s class tonight and they were so indifferent, hearing about the rosary and the love of God. This made me want to tell them, with the deepest heart, about His love for them.

I go to the deepest chamber of His Heart. I first go to the heart of Our Lady. She is so pure and so filled with love and she places me in the deepest, hottest chamber for it is there she dwells. In this deep, deep chamber, I unite with My heavenly Father. All this takes place in an enveloping presence of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit permeates my soul and I feel the fire of God’s love. It is there I pray. I unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and I know graces and mercies are spilled out for it is no longer me praying, but God praying in me. All I ask for, He will answer, according to His will.

I dwell in this deepest chamber of His Heart, for it is there I am consumed with burning love, love for all. It is there I see with eyes unveiled, see through the eyes of God. I look out at the world and I see through His eyes. I see the people, each special child of the Father and Mary, afraid and in such great need of His love. I feel the pain in His Heart, He wants to receive love from the souls and He is rejected, but His response to them is always - burning love.

Jesus has placed me here to see through His eyes, to love with His Heart, to pray as He prays in me. It is no longer I who live, but He Who lives in me.

I am His dear servant. I serve Him best as I am one in Him - one mind and one heart. What a place to be, one in the Heart of Jesus!

In His Heart there is no division. His Heart is forever filled with consuming, burning love.

I love as I love through Him. I see as I see through His eyes. I am as I am in Him. I pray as I dwell in Him and unite to the Masses going on around the world.

I tell Him my love and outpour all the love I have to Him, to help make up for the rejection by so many.

I am yours, Lord, wholly and completely and I place my trust in You.

Song: Teach Me To Love With Your Heart

Introduction

My introduction is this:

I long with my whole heart to hear lips all over the world proclaiming the love of God, to hear a holy priest say at Mass: “Oh, how I love Jesus. I love Him so much”, and to hear others say: “Oh, how I love my beloved God - Oh, how I love Mary.” The greatest act we can do is what we were created for: to love God, but do you hear people say, from their whole heart, “I love Jesus so much?”

Do we tell one another how much we love each other?

Many of our hearts have turned numb. The love from His Sacred Heart is a burning fire beyond our human comprehension.

“No fire on this earth can ever describe the burning embers that burn from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. No fire burns like the fires coming from My Heart and hearts filled with the love from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Spirit will move in the hearts of all consecrated to My Heart, and you will know how fire truly spreads, for the love of God is a fire. It is vibrant. It is encompassing. It is smoldering, burning deep within and speedily spreading on the outside.

“There will be one flock and one Shepherd and My staff will rule over all. Hearts consecrated to Our Hearts will lead the light across the earth. The fire will wipe out the hatred in the cold hearts and the earth will be covered with My celestial light.

The hearts of men will turn from their sick and desolate ways to hearts gentle as a little lamb.” (March 26, 1996)

I Love Him

Sunday Morning

R. He opens the doors to His Heart, and I thirst for Him. I went to Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. I wanted only Him. I realized God, God truly present and in the tabernacle! To know Him is to want only Him. I love Him so much. I saw Mary appear in the statue.

 

Sorrowful Mysteries

April 23, 1996

Tuesday at Our Lady of The Woods

Before the Tabernacle

Jesus: I am love. I have come to you in a special way this evening. I am calling you to open wide your hearts and let Me enter deeply into your heart. I love you with the deepest love. You do not trust and you do not thank Me for the great gifts that I have given to you. So few souls come to Me with burning love. They come and they recite words and I am longing for such love from you. Come to My Heart, My beloved ones, and let Me bathe you in My burning love. I am Jesus, on fire for love of you.

The Agony in the Garden

Jesus: Enter into the heart of My Mother, the heart of pure and tender love and feel the Holy Spirit fill you deeply with His love. As you are purified more in the heart of My Mother, come to My Heart, come into the white heat of My love. It is there, My dear ones, that you will unite with the Father’s love. It is this vision that will set you free. Come to the whitest, deepest chamber of My Heart and feel the presence of the Almighty God. I am truly present with you and in this room.

R. The Almighty God is present. Bow to your Savior, His majesty, King, and unite in this white chamber with the Holy Eucharist, with the Sacrifice of the Mass being offered throughout the world as the priest raises the host in the deepest chamber of the Heart of Jesus. Unite with the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present in the Mass. Jesus gave Himself for love of us on Calvary and Jesus gives us Himself now in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

1. Jesus: I want such intimacy with My beloved souls. You hold yourself closed and you search for love in this world and I am waiting for you to come and to be so close to Me. This is a rosary that you will long remember. If you open your heart I will touch you in a special way. Release all of the anxieties in your life and be present to Me. Forget everything that you carry and feel the presence of the Almighty God. Such completeness and joy within your being! You are free and you are wrapped in My love.

2. Jesus: This is your place of refuge, the deepest chamber of My Heart, for around you, you will suffer many things that will cause you suffering and you will go to My Heart in the deepest chamber for your refuge. Come now, come to the red room. Let the world quiet around you and feel the presence of the Almighty God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, within your heart. Hear the roar of the fire from My burning love. You are wrapped in an embrace – a Divine embrace of My love. I am Jesus. Feel this presence for all eternity and you will know peace, love and joy. Completeness, you will know, the fire of God’s love.

3. R. Jesus knelt in the Garden – Jesus Christ, the Son of God-made-Man and His Heart was filled with this burning love. So far beyond our imagination! The Heart that is love and He saw before Him today all of the souls and so many would forget Him and neglect Him. Many treat Him with such disrespect. Many use His name in vain and they pridefully march about this earth seeking pleasure speaking God’s name in vain. Jesus knew all this anguish in the garden and His Heart was in such pain for He is love. Think of how it is to love someone with all your heart and be treated with such hatred and disrespect. To be cursed at, spit on, slapped – Jesus’ Heart on fire for all men, knelt in the garden and He knew every sin of every man for all time vividly, in every detail. Every hatred, the vilest deed committed and His Heart was in such anguish that He sweat blood.

4. R. Jesus allows us to go through suffering in our lives today and we wonder why. We say, Jesus, for You I will do anything...and then He gives us suffering and we walk around and we complain. Our mouth and our heart do not always match. It is in great suffering that we unite deeper and deeper to the Heart of Jesus. Everything that we experience in our life today He is allowing, that we may join closer and closer to Him in deeper love. Every single thing that happens in our life, He allows and it is in staying rooted to Him that we learn lessons – lessons about Him.

5. Jesus: The trial that you experience in your life this day is a great gift from Me, in living in that trial according to the Father’s will – you can grow in greater holiness and love.

6. R. He said, “Father, if it is possible, remove this cup from Me”, but He complied to the Father’s will and out of greatest love for us, Jesus gave Himself.

7. R. God gives us a sharing in His life in baptism. We carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. He loves through us. He serves through us. He helps others through us. We are His hands and we are His feet. Jesus lives today and He lives and acts in us.

8. Jesus: Satan will get you focused on little details that are of no account. You must ward against the workings of satan. He uses your minds to get you focused on such foolish things. I am waiting for the words of love recited from your mouth. Tell Me of your love. Do not listen to those words that confuse you in your minds. Come to My Heart and I will set you free.

9. R. He knelt there in the garden and the apostles slept.

10. Hail Mary

 

Jesus is Scourged at the Pillar

Jesus: I call you to surrender, My dear ones. There are many things in this world that are not of your liking. Do not fight, accept those things that I send to you that you will grow more in your love. I am teaching you in all the trials that you are experiencing. I am Jesus. I am there with you at every moment. I know your every thought. I know every desire in your heart. You cannot hide from Me. Trust Me. I am with you at every moment.

R. Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in Thee!

1. R. The tabernacle door opens and in it we behold the Almighty God. Jesus is truly present in this room with us now. Let us meditate on His presence with us. The same as the day that He stood at the Pillar and was beaten, He is in this room. What a great gift He gives to us. How do we thank Him for this gift?

2. R. My dear Jesus, I see the cold hearts in this world. I see the vileness on the television and what the little children are being taught and how few children are told of Your immense love for them. You commanded us to love God and to love one another, yet so many have excluded You completely from their lives. I want to help make reparation for my sins and the sins of all men.

3. R. God controls our every breath and our every heartbeat. He is the Creator and we are the creatures, subject to Him. We realize that at any moment that we could be snatched from this earth, yet we pridefully strut about the earth and do as we please. Let us pray for ourselves and all those that are so blind this day, that they have forgotten God and have excluded Him from their lives. Let us pray to God in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for an outpouring of grace for those souls whose hearts have turned dark.

4. R. Jesus stood at the pillar and they raised the instruments and they beat Him and His flesh was torn. His body was mangled, the blood flew in the air and His Heart still burning with love for each and every soul. Let us go to the Heart of Jesus and know this love, the love that He has, that He was crucified and gave Himself on the cross for us.

5. R. As we know more Jesus’ love, as we are filled with Jesus’ love and become one in Jesus, Jesus loves through us in the world today. God commands us to do two things: to love God and to love each other as ourselves. Jesus showed us that He loved us so, that He allowed them to beat and tear His flesh.

6. R. My Jesus, it is an act of the will when I am taunted and I am distracted, when I am confused and when I do not know where to turn, it is an act of my will to go to the whitest chamber in Your Heart and to unite with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I must put aside all of the thoughts in my mind that are distracting me and go to this refuge, this room where I know there is endless love, which wraps around me and sets me free, for if I am living only to love God and to do His will I know that You are protecting me during all the trials, when I seem so alone sometimes. It is in Your Heart that I find refuge. When the world caves in around me I go into Your Heart and I am lost in Your love.

7. R. We must discipline our thoughts and go to Jesus when we are troubled. What good does it do us to fight the Plan of God?

Jesus: My beloved ones, to ponder and focus on the problems in your life. Does this relieve the problem? Come to Me. I am the Almighty God. I can do all things and I will help you in your trials.

8. R. See Jesus, tied at the Pillar and beaten raw and look into His eyes and see the eyes that burn with love. Even though He was beaten, His eyes are gentle and kind. He does not holler back at the men, He looks at them with love. He came to show us the way.

Jesus: You are My hands and you are My feet. You are My Heart in this world today. As you love, I will love through you. Let your heart be pure and focused always on My ways. I am with you until the end of time. You have nothing to fear but the fear of sin, for I am with you at every second.

9. Jesus: In the deepest and darkest night I am with you in your suffering. I was beaten at the Pillar for My love of you. I am with you this day.

10. Song: I Love You Jesus

Jesus: Many things this day are not to your liking. Surrender and know that in that trial you will learn more and more how to be as the Father intends you to be: loving, kind and gentle.

 

The Crowning with Thorns

Jesus: There will be one flock and one shepherd. The way to My Heart is through My Mother’s heart. She is the keeper of My Heart. I bid you to go to the loving heart of My Mother and to come into the deepest chamber of My Heart. It is there that you will know the Father’s love. Minute by minute, I am attentive to all of your needs. You must surrender and trust. It is in your trust that I pour out My love to you.

1. R. They pounded into His head a sharp crown of piercing thorns. Think of how it would be to sit still while the people that you loved so dearly pounded into your head a crown of thorns.

2. R. What is our problem that we cannot understand the small trials that He gives us this day? That we stay so focused on such incidental matters when He tells us how He is truly present at every second and He is telling us to surrender and instead of worrying, to tell Him how we love Him, for He is the Almighty God! He has all the power and going to Him will truly set us free.

3. R. Many this day have turned their backs on God and Mary cries out for the souls that will go to hell at every second. When we love we are helping souls to know Jesus. Jesus is love. Jesus has called us to do this work to help souls to get to heaven by giving our lives as a sacrifice for souls. Whatever it is, if it is eating or sleeping or loving, it is an offering, if we operate as the Father wills. Why do we hold back and not give our lives to the Father as a sacrifice, an offering, for this will help souls. It is the intention to give our lives, all that we do, to the Father, in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, to help grace to be released for the souls Jesus died for.

4. R. Jesus shows us how He gave. They pounded into His head a sharp crown of thorns and the blood ran down His face and into His eyes and His ears and He withstood this treatment for within was a Heart filled with burning love for His beloved souls. Can we not this day offer up our daily activities in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the souls of our brothers?

5. R. The angel at Fatima said to offer everything we do as a sacrifice for souls. Mary showed the three children the vision of hell and the children, so little, were horrified. Why do we close our eyes and not realize that it is really important that we join our lives to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass for grace for the souls. By uniting our lives to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and offering it to the Father we will help in every activity that we perform, our lives become so important for grace to be released on the Church and the world. It is through Jesus’ death that we have life. We offer our lives as a sacrifice that many will be saved, we pray for God’s saving grace to be released.

6. R. Jesus shed His blood for the souls. Jesus asks us to love, for He lives in this world through us.

7. R. They hollered every ugly word against Jesus. God, who is all worthy of all our love and you think this is so terrible, but look at how Jesus is treated today – Jesus is ignored and forgotten by many. You cannot even speak His word to some because their hearts have turned to hearts of stone. Jesus comes with a kind and generous Heart, always ready to take the souls back, for He loves them. Let us pray fervently for so many souls on this earth today whose hearts have turned to stone. Jesus gave His blood for them!

8. R. Jesus ascended into heaven and left the apostles here to carry out His work, He gave us the Church – We as member of the mystical body of Christ are united in carrying out the work Christ began.

9. R. The richest source of grace that is released is in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. When we unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and offer our lives as a sacrifice to the Father, we can help souls. Pray they will receive grace and turn from their sinful ways.

10. Hail Mary

 

Jesus Carries His Cross

R. But I just wish that this hadn’t happened. Why did this happen? I felt so good and then this happened. What is the cross that Jesus gives you to carry this day? Do we not realize that the greatest sacrifice that was ever offered was that Jesus gave Himself on the cross for us and He rose on the 3rd day? When we accept the trials that we experience and unite them to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the grace flows on this earth. God wants our lives given in love, doing the Father’s will.

1. Jesus: I give to you sufferings today. How do you accept the sufferings I give to you? It is in the suffering that you will know My life. Your life, a constant death and resurrection, constant dying and rising to new life – in each suffering you receive an abundant share in My life.

2. R. Jesus fell to the earth and the cross fell on Him. His face hit the ground and He could hardly get up but His Heart was filled with love. Love is an energy that helps us to move even under the most duress. Jesus, under the cross, got up three times because of His love for us.

3. R. “Lord, let me walk that last mile in Your shoes, under the weight of the wood.”

4. R. “How do we walk the last mile under the weight of the wood?” Do we complain? Do we realize that in carrying the cross we are given great graces for ourselves and for others?

5. R. Jesus’ eyes peered into the eyes of His beloved Mother. In that embrace was the deep love between His Heart and her heart. Jesus saw her face reddened and covered with tears and she saw His face covered with blood. But we do not realize how much love Jesus and Mary have for us. Let us focus on the sight that Mary saw when she looked into the eyes of her beloved Son: See clearly before you, that face of Jesus, for this is reality – that the Son of God came to this earth and He gave Himself for love of man and He is crying out to each one of us in this room to spread His love. The world is sick and in pain and many are dying and dropping into hell. What do we do to wake the dead? What He asks us to do is so simple. He asks us to love God and love one another as ourselves and offer our daily activities as a sacrifice, in union with the Mass. Many do not have time for our beloved Jesus. But, we see His face on the ground and we see Him hang from the cross and I hear Him cry out, “Tell them, Rita, tell them, tell them.” Do you know what it is to hear the voice of Jesus call out, “Tell them, Rita, tell them Rita, tell them.” Do you know what it is to hear the voice of Jesus call out, “I am alive, I am alive, I am alive”, and no one pays heed.

Jesus: I gave Myself for love of you. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. This is an urgent message to every person in this room. I am longing for your love. I want to be one in you, to live in you, to touch the hardened hearts through you this day. I am God and I am speaking to you.

6. R. Do you know what it is to see the face of our beloved Mother before you and to hear her say that souls will go to hell and to beg and to beg – this is our heavenly Mother that is talking to us. Let our hearts be moved to love God with our whole heart, our whole soul and our whole being and to love our neighbor that they may see His life alive in us, to be fearless soldiers to march on the world and to carry the banner of His love in the darkness.

7. R. They spit on Him and the blood ran all over His body. Jesus was beaten all over His body and then He carried the heavy cross and fell to the ground. They pulled Him up and kicked Him and forced Him to move on and we say, “but I can’t love this day, that person is just mean to me”, and the Heart of Jesus is burning love.

8. R. It is all in our hearts. How many hearts are shut down. The life of God lives within our hearts. If the heart is cut off from the vine it has no life and it withers and dies. So many of Mary’s children this day are wandering down the dark street looking for pleasure to fill themselves and their hearts are like stone.

9. Hail Mary

10. R. Like ripples on a pond, love radiates. God works in us when we become one in Him and when He touches the heart of someone through us it spreads speedily, like a burning fire, for His love is on fire for souls.

 

Jesus is Crucified and Dies on the Cross

R. Lord, let me walk that last mile in Your shoes. When Jesus is one with us, all of our actions are magnified with the might of the Almighty God. In one small act of loving, it reverberates and touches so many hearts. We do not know the seeds that we plant even when we go to the store, but at every moment we are helping to bring down great grace in our Morning Offering as members of the body of Christ. When we are doing the Father’s will with love, it is a most heroic act - to love.

1. R. You cannot love too much. We are to love according to the Father’s will, Jesus’ Heart is a fire, far beyond our imagination. Let us pray to Him to give us the grace to love as He loves through us.

2. R. Love is self-giving for the good of the other, according to the Father’s will. Jesus showed us the greatest act of love when He spread His arms and He selflessly gave His all for love of us. In all of our acts today we carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. When we are united to the Mass, all day in our Morning Offering, it is a great act of love of God and others. In this simple act of love – thereis such grace released when we unite it to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

 


 

3. R. The world will shine with the brightest light and hearts all over the world will love God with the most fervent love. Mary said at Fatima: The Sacred Heart of Jesus will Reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. We must consecrate our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. We want God to dwell in us. We will carry out His love in our lives this day.

4. R. Mary stood beneath the cross and she watched her beloved Son. Just think for a moment, think of all the pain that Jesus suffered. Think of what it would be like to have nails pounded into your hands and your feet and your head crowned with thorns, and wounds all over your body, beaten with harsh instruments, drained of all of your blood and to hang on a cross for three agonizing hours.

But Jesus says to us, “My greatest sufferings were not what I experienced to My body but to My Heart, for I love the souls with the deepest love and I am forgotten and treated with such indifference.” Jesus would rather have one soul that loves Him with the deepest love than a million souls that have a cold love toward Him or love Him halfheartedly.

Jesus: Will you be that soul? Will you be the soul that warms My Heart? Will I hear the words from your lips all day as you go about your activities and you take those small moments and say, ‘Jesus, I love You.’ Will you march into this world and tell others how much you love Me that they too might think about how great the love of God is? You are My hands and you are My feet. My hands were pierced and My feet were pierced for love of you. I ask you now to lift yours in love of your brothers.

5. R. Let us join in one mind and one heart all together in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and pray for this world that the grace and mercy of the Almighty God will reign on the earth.

6. Acts 7:51 - 8:1

‘You stubborn people, with uncircumcised hearts and ears. You are always resisting the Holy Spirit, just as your ancestors used to do. Can you name a single prophet your ancestors never persecuted? They killed those who foretold the coming of the Upright One, and now you have become his betrayers, his murderers. In spite of being given the Law through angels, you have not kept it.’

They were infuriated when they heard this, and ground their teeth at him.

But Stephen, filled with the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at God’s right hand. ‘Look! I can see heaven thrown open,’ he said, ‘and the Son of man standing at the right hand of God.’ All the members of the council shouted out and stopped their ears with their hands; then they made a concerted rush at him, thrust him out of the cityand stoned him. The witnesses put down their clothes at the feet of a young man called Saul. As they were stoning him, Stephen said in invocation, ‘Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.’ Then he knelt down and said aloud, ‘Lord, do not hold this sin against them.’ And with these words he fell asleep.

Saul approved of the killing.

R. In the First Reading this morning, Paul said that they are stiff-necked people and uncircumcised in hearts and ears. Jesus wants us to be in one mind and one heart with each other. We put up walls and keep ourselves away from one another. Jesus wants us to love each other as brothers and sisters with God as our Father and Mary as our Mother. St. Paul said we oppose the Holy Spirit and we are just like our ancestors.

7. R. Mary said at Fatima: “Until a sufficient number have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary we will not have peace in this world.” Let us give our hearts in love to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary that we will be what Jesus wants us to be. That we will live in Him. He will use us to help light up the dark world. Jesus hung on the cross for three hours. Jesus’ body was the great light against the darkened sky. If we stay in union with Christ crucified, we will be a great light against the darkness in this world.

8. R. In the cross there is the Resurrection. Jesus comes and Jesus gives to us a sharing in His Divine life in baptism. The Sacred Heart of Jesus will Reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph.

9. Song: See the Eyes that Look at Mary

R. Can we see as Mary looked into the eyes of Jesus? Can we see as Mary saw Jesus hang on the cross covered with blood and withered? Can we see as Mary saw her Son – His face covered with blood and His head crowned with thorns? Do you know how much Jesus loves us – that He died – He died for me.

10. Jesus: I call you, My beloved ones, to love God and love one another.

 

Glorious Mysteries

April 25, 1996

Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center

Junior Shepherds of Christ Associates

The Resurrection

1. Mary: This is a rosary for the children of America. This is a rosary from your Mother Mary, on this April 25th, of 1996. May the children of America unite in one heart, in one mind and love with my Son Jesus with all their hearts.

2. R. Mary calls us as the children of light to march across this world and to carry the banner of His light in our hearts, that all may see His life within us and praise the Almighty God who loves us with His burning Heart of love.

3. R. See Jesus adorned in the brightest light as He comes forth from the tomb. This is the Almighty God, all-powerful, clothed in all splendor and glory and He has chosen each one of you, for this mission to help lead the light across this world. For generations to come all will remember your fervor and your love of God as it spreads from your hearts to all that you touch.

4. R. He is alive and He lives in this world in the hearts of men. The youth will carry the love of Jesus for the future generation.

Jesus: I am calling you to be the backbone of this Junior Shepherds of Christ Movement, to lead the children and the adults to the love of the Almighty God.

5. R. He came, He died, and He rose on the third day to give us life. He is filling each one of us with His abundant life, that we will go into the world and He will live in us in all of our actions.

6. R. I am the messenger. The message is from God, from Jesus and Mary to you, to be His youth to carry His love to this darkened world. The world that is filled with such sin and agony.

7. R. Do you hear the cries of your heavenly Mother? Will you go to her and let her fill you with her motherly love, that you will have the strength to carry out this mission?

8. Song: Here I Am Lord

9. Jesus: Who will I send if you say no to this mission?

10. R. See the Heart of Jesus after the resurrection. The glorified Heart of Jesus filled with such light and vibrancy, radiating His love. See it pulsate. This is the love that He has for all men.

 

The Ascension of Our Lord into Heaven

1. Jesus: My youth, My youth will carry My love to this world. You must be holy in your hearts. I am calling you to this holiness, to this love of God, that you will be the apostles to spread My love to this world.

2. R. He took the apostles near the town of Bethany. He raised His arms and He ascended into heaven.

3. R. Jesus no longer walks the earth. He lives in us as we walk this earth. He loves through us. He touches others as we live according to the will of the Father.

4. R. Our whole life is to be spent in this oneness with God, that He can touch others through us.

5. R. We are commissioned in Baptism to carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives.

6. Jesus: My precious ones that I have called here to this Junior Shepherds of Christ Movement, open your hearts and let Me fill your soul with My love. You are so precious to Me. I am guarding you every moment of your lives. I am watching over you. You will truly be My apostles that will lead many to My burning love. I love you, I love you, I love you.

7. R. The apostles were filled with fear as they saw Jesus ascend into the sky. But, before Jesus ascended into the sky, He promised to send the Holy Spirit to them, that they would, when the Holy Spirit descended upon them, be filled with fearlessness and would go into the world and carry forth His message of love.

8. R. The apostles were so filled with fear that they locked themselves in the upper room to wait for the Holy Spirit.

9. Jesus: Blessed are you My chosen ones, for I am giving to you great graces. You will be joined ever closer to My Heart. Surrender and do not give into the temptation to go astray. I am the Almighty God. I guard your every heart beat. I am watching you and I know every thought that you think.

10. Jesus: Satan aims to trip you up and stop you on your path. I am there to guard you and to give you My grace.

 

The Descent upon the Apostles and the Virgin Mary

1. R. Put yourself in the room with the Apostles and the Virgin Mary and hear the wind and the roar of a fire. There appeared over the head of the Apostles parted tongues of fire. They were filled with the Holy Spirit and they were transformed from fear to fearlessness.

2. R. The Apostles many times were afraid. Peter denied Jesus. We see how they did not always know what was going on. But, now the Holy Spirit descended upon them and they were filled with this fearlessness, that they went out to preach the gospel.

3. Jesus: You My young shepherds, My young apostles, I am sending into this world. As you hear the Scriptures during this time of the year, think of yourselves as you go into the world, to spread My love, to the world that is hurting and in pain.

4. Jesus: Oh youth of America, do you see how the children and the young adults are being poisoned every moment on the television and with video games? I am the Almighty God. I ask you to pray fervently with your young hearts, for the Father will hear your prayers and He will give to you great grace to help carry out His mission for you.

5. Jesus: I send you as sheep among wolves. You will calm the angered heart and many will turn their hearts to God because of the love for God in your heart.

6. Jesus: Pray to the Holy Spirit fervently, all through the day.

7. Jesus: He will give to you a sharing in His divine wisdom and you will know far beyond your human comprehension and understand so much of the plan of the Father for this world.

8. Jesus: I can give you clear understanding in one, minute second that many will not know in all their years of their life. I am the Almighty God, I want to shower you with My divine wisdom.

9. Jesus: My stiff-necked people, they harden their hearts and they walk away. They have made idols their gods and I wait and long for their love. Will you be My apostles to tell this world of My burning love, that many will be saved through your prayers and through all your efforts to spread this love to the world?

10. Jesus: You help in the act of redemption. All of your actions should be offered as a sacrifice united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, to the Father, in the Holy Spirit.

 

The Assumption of Our Blessed Lady into Heaven

1. R. The Almighty God controls our every breath and our every heart beat. We are totally dependent on Him. If we go to the highest mountain we cannot escape Him. He is with us and in our hearts at every moment. We must be at peace in our hearts, or we will not feel good in our lives.

2. R. The television and video games have drawn many of the youth totally outside of themselves for excitement, but their hearts are withering and dying inside. There must be time spent everyday that you can hear God speak in your heart.

3. R. To go to the world for pleasure and to forget the inner workings of your heart, is to lead a life of loneliness and pain.

4. Mary: I am Our Lady of the Holy Rosary and I am asking you, my beloved youth, to help spread this rosary to all the youth in world.

5. Mary: I am asking you to give me your heart everyday and to tell me of your love. I will place your heart in the Heart of my Son and you will be at peace and to know Our love for you.

6. R. The world is vast, the world is wide. The Almighty God created the world, the sun in the sky and everything in it. He has all the power. We must turn to Him and realize that He controls our life.

7. R. If your heart has turned to darkness, how dark is dark?

8. Mary: The devil wants to take my little children deeper and deeper into sin. Look at the violence in your world. I am Mary your Mother, I am calling to you, my specially chosen children of the light, to pray and to come to my heart

9. R. Do not be willful. Obey authority. This teaches you to obey the Father.

10. Mary: To His death on the cross, my Son always obeyed the will of the Father.

 

Mary is Crowned Queen of Heaven and Earth

1. Mary: My Son obeyed always the will of His Father. My dear children, Satan wants you to be willful. You must be obedient.

2. R. Pray that you will be humble. That you will be filled with all the virtues, that your hearts will be rooted in the love of God.

3. R. We see Mary as the angel appeared to her and asked her to be the Mother of God. She obeyed and said yes. Then we see that the Father crowned her as Queen of heaven and earth.

4. Mary: Reach with your hearts, my sweet, sweet children. Let your hearts be always alive and filled with love. Spend time alone with your beloved Jesus.

5. Mary: Satan is aimed at the youth of this world. He wants to cut the youth off from their hearts. You will be my chosen ones that will lead the fire of His love (my Son) across the land.

6. Mary: On this day, April 25th, 1996, I am Mary your Mother calling you to an urgent message. Listen my children, you are children of the light. You will march on the darkened world and many will be filled with hearts of love.

7. Mary: I am Mary your Mother and I am telling you that the Father has called you to this Center, that you have been chosen from so many, that the Father has chosen you and is calling you to help in the work of salvation.

8. Mary: Do you believe that God is truly talking to you? This ssage from your Mother. I am telling you that the Father has a great plan for each one of you gathered in this room. I am Queen of heaven and earth and you are my children of the light.

9. R. See the souls shriveling in the fires of hell. So many this day are dropping into hell like drops of rain. As you pray fervently from your hearts to the Holy Spirit, you will see clearly the plan of the Father for you. You must pray to the Holy Spirit all through the day and spend time alone with your beloved Jesus.

10. R. If you do not spend time each day alone with God, you will have problems in your life. For it is in those quiet moments that He teaches you about Himself and that He reveals the Father’s plan for you.

Mary: I am Mary your Mother, this is a special rosary for you. I have not given very many messages in a long time. But, I have spoken to you for this is an urgent call to you, my sweet children. Thank you for your faithfulness to the Heart of my Son, Jesus. He loves you with a most burning love. I am Mary your Mother, and thank you for responding to my call.

Guiding Light homily series — Reflect on the Word — Cycle B     The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 10.00

Guiding Light homily series — Steadfast to the Son — Cycle A    The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 10.00

Guiding Light — Focusing on the Word — Cycle B    At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 10.00

Guiding Light — Feed My Soul — Cycle C    In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15

Priestly Newsletter — 2000 #1 — CD.Christ is Our Strength — Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our—selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
