Jesus' Heart Has No Bounds
R. Jesus' Heart is without bounds. Jesus is one with the Father. Once I am in Jesus' Heart, it is an endless cavern, I am one with the Father.
Mary is one with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit – She is the singular vessel. The Holy Spirit is the Spouse of Mary. We cannot fathom the pure love of Mary and the Holy Spirit. We cannot ever realize the love of God, but to ponder it, helps us realize how God loves us. God is love.
Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
... In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.
The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.
At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ.
R. Mary conceived Jesus in her womb by the power of the Holy Spirit. It is in Mary's heart the Holy Spirit works in the fire of God's love to make us more like Jesus.
I see myself enclosed in red, with glowing embers. I know the action of the Holy Spirit, the flow of God's love permeating my whole being. I am enclosed in the heart of Mary. The Holy Spirit has filled her heart. The element of love knows no bounds - love is unbounded. So, to exist in Mary's heart is a presence for me of red in a space of love, it is unbounded. The Holy Spirit wants to make me holy. I must let go and be docile to His touch, open, yielding. The Holy Spirit fills my being with God's love. I exist in God, wrapped in His embrace.
I go to the red cavern of love of the Two Hearts, I want to be wrapped in God's embrace – I exist IN HIM!! Presence and Love, existing IN HIM. There is an endless depth, there are no bounds on its length, without limits. In uniting in this immense presence, I am united to the presence of the Father. This is all spontaneous – the presence is the presence of God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I am one in God. I know and love the Persons of the Trinity.
My desire is to penetrate deeper and deeper into this endless abyss of God's burning love. It is an endless thirst, knowing there is more and wanting more and more and more, knowing God's presence. Sometimes my heart begs and begs and thirsts for more; sometimes I am overwhelmed with the love and feel such satisfaction. On December 15th I knew the presence and united in such a way I was so happy. I was caught up in Him in such a way. I was overwhelmed with His presence.
Song: Your Presence Pervades My Soul

Jesus Points to His Heart
R. I see His hands pointing to His Heart. His Heart was pierced with wounds, His hands were pierced and His Heart, lanced – and He shows us His Heart was a human Heart. He took a human Heart. It was filled with Divine Love. Jesus was conceived in Mary's womb through the power of the Holy Spirit, intimate love, love beyond our knowledge or capability of knowing. These are the Hearts of deepest love – His human Heart filled with Divine Love.
It is in uniting to these Two Hearts that our hearts will reach a high level of love. Their Hearts are the most perfect - the more we unite to Their Hearts, in the Holy Spirit, the more we know love. There is a whole world that is dying in their hearts – that needs more than surface love – that needs deep love.
Words: so much of our love of God is words – He wants our all. Jesus gave Himself – this is the love Jesus has for us. Jesus wants us to give ourselves.
The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass can be such intimate love. God gives us Himself. Jesus gives Himself! I give myself to the Father in the Holy Spirit.
A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.
I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.
Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.
Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.
Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.
Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.
-Mass Book, December 27, 1995
R. The whole world is hungry – vile deeds will continue until the messages of His burning love are circulated. Hearts are dying, focusing outside their hearts, focusing on the world. Let's go to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary – So much LOVE!! The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present.
Man's intimate love affair with God. Jesus is a Person. We unite with Him in deepest intimacy in the Holy Eucharist.
I am alive, I am alive, I am alive, Jesus cries. Jesus cries: "I give you My Body, I give you My Blood, I want to feed you. I live in the Hearts of Men!"
If I could reach beyond myself and be wrapped in the embrace of Your love – Your love given for me. My heart is so hungry to unite deeper to Him. My soul thirsts for Thee, Oh adorable Lord.
I feel such pain for the offenses against God. He who is all worthy of all our love and such pain for the loss of so many souls.
January 4, 1996
R. This talk, given by Fr. Carter, in Denver, Colorado, is about the Fatima message and it's connection to the Shepherds of Christ Movement. He talks about consecrating our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and having a close union with Jesus.
January 5, 1996 - First Friday
R. Love is love. It is not sterile, dry and inactive – it is active. It is in our hearts. It is burning. It is longing. It is hurting and joy in your heart.
I love the priest at the Consecration of the Mass, for it is then that I see him most united to Jesus. He says, "this is My Body, this is My Blood." The Father looks to the earth – He sees Jesus so one in the priest – at this moment, the priest united to Jesus in the sacrifice to the Father. I am so one in this moment. I am one with Jesus in the Holy Spirit - giving myself to the Father. I am so intently wrapped in this moment at the Consecration of the Mass, I long for the priest with his whole heart, his whole soul and his whole being to hold Jesus high and reverently, that I might linger in this moment, that I might adore Him in this moment.
I die to myself and that which is not of Him. I want to be one in Him as a holy sacrifice and offer myself to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, united to Jesus. I pray for holiness. It is Through Him, With Him and In Him. I offer myself as a sacrifice to the Father. Jesus gives to me His Body and Blood in the Holy Eucharist. Jesus gives to me Himself: Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. This is the Bread of Life, the true bread come down from heaven. I want to die to my selfish ways that I may live more and more in Him.
I am one in Him. I exist in Him. I am living in Him. As I walk, I walk in Him, I breathe in Him, I am in Him.

The Agony in the Garden
Jesus: This is the most intimate rosary you will have with Me, My beloved ones. This is the First Friday. I come to you in a special way and I give to you abundant graces to join ever closer to My burning love.
1. Jesus: Put aside all of the distractions in your minds and in your hearts and focus totally on Me, My burning love. My Heart on-fire for love of You.
2. Jesus: You carry out My life, death and resurrection in your lives. As you live this day you experience My life in your life. Look back over all the sufferings that you have experienced in your lives and know that in all of those sufferings there were great gifts given from Me to you. My beloved ones, as you share in My sufferings, you know Me more and more. Think back to the deepest suffering that you have experienced and in that suffering, walk with Me through this rosary, through the Passion. Each mystery, a mystery and insight to God's love. Focus on Me and I will reveal to you many mysteries of My deep love for you.
3. R. He knelt in the Garden and He took upon Himself all the sins of all men from all time. Think of all the sins from the very beginning to this day and Jesus knew all men's sins in His Heart. He was wrapped in such agony and His sweat became as great drops of blood upon the ground. How senseless is this world today that it is caught up so much in the world and the Almighty God is alive and is here. Who hears the words that He speaks - the words of His love - the words for which the soul craves? Many ears have turned deaf and He is calling out to us, His beloved ones, to live His love in our lives. Through our example we preach the mightiest lesson of His love. We are being called to be saints, not be worldly. Let our hearts be filled with such love for God and others. God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit live in the graced baptized soul.
4. Hail Mary
5. Hail Mary
6. Hail Mary
7. Hail Mary
8. Hail Mary9. R. In marriage, love is what every man promises to every woman, but only God can give us perfect love. It is in being rooted in His love that we will be satisfied. Nothing fills the starved soul but the love of God. He cries out over and over and over again to reach with our hearts, to know that He is alive, to be absorbed in His Divine love.
10. Jesus: Are you cold, are you empty, are you hungry? Where do you go when you are hungry? When there is nowhere that you are satisfied, I am waiting for you to come to be with Me and I will outpour to you My abundant love. I love you, I love you, I love you. I am with you in a special way. It is in the rosary that you will unite more deeply to My burning love on fire for love of you.
The Scourging at the Pillar
R. This rosary on the fifth of the month is in honor of the five blasphemies against the Blessed Mother and the five wounds of Christ. Let us meditate on His wounds as we pray this rosary. Let us think about the wounds on His arms and His back. The wounds that those He loved gave to Him.
1. R. They seized Him and they led Him away as a common criminal and they tied Him to a pillar, His hands tied. Do you notice His surrender? He did not fight back. Every time we see pictures of Jesus, we see Him surrendering to everything that happened to Him.
2. R. We should realize that God is omnipotent and the immensity of His love that He loved us so much that He came to this earth and He took on a human body. God is all powerful and controls our every breath and our every heartbeat and He wants to be so intimately one with us. God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit dwell within our graced baptized soul. Why do we fear when He is with us and loves us so much and is attentive to our every need?
3. R. The mystery of God's love – God is the ultimate mystery.
Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
... In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.
The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.
At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ.
R. Perfect love - God communicates His love to us through His Son Jesus who took on human flesh for love of us. Jesus took on a human nature. This is how God loves us. Look how He is mistreated this day by those He loves so dearly!
4. R. Jesus comes and appears and shows us His Heart, surrounded with a crown of thorns. He suffered indifference, the neglect and hate from those He loves. Can we, in this rosary, tell the beloved Heart of Jesus that we want to help make reparation to His Heart for the indifference, neglect and hatred against Him, and ask Him to help us to love Him more? To see that the greatest act that we can perform on this earth is the act of loving God. This is why we were created, to know, love, and serve God with all our hearts, and love our neighbors as ourselves. Oh burning Heart, Oh love Divine, let us love You more...
5. R. Jesus stood at the pillar, tied and helpless. This was the Almighty God, He could have at any second stopped the treatment. Jesus allowed Himself to be treated this way by those He loved. The weapons they used tore deeply into His flesh and made Him bleed. Meditate on the wounds that were so deep in Jesus' body, that tore Jesus' skin, deep into Jesus' body, it made Him bleed!
6. R. Jesus asks us to carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. God allows us to suffer. Much of our suffering can be mental torment, going through the everyday, ordinary events that are very hard sometimes, to live through it. We are not standing at the pillar but we can identify with His suffering whenever we suffer. Jesus allows us to live His life, death and resurrection in our lives. Let us thank Him for the great gifts He gives to us to allow us to share in His life in baptism. Sufferings can draw us closer to Him. We must identify with Jesus when we are racked with pain.
7. R. We know God is always with us, even when it is really hard.
8. R. You reached down and You lifted me up. You kissed my wounds and You breathed into my soul. I knew, God, that You were there with Your Divine love.
9. R. Minute by minute, second by second, Jesus is attentive to our every need, our every heartbeat and He knows the number of hairs on our head. The Almighty God is truly present in this room with us, in the Eucharist, no less present than the day He walked this earth. Our hearts can be in turmoil and in fear many times, yet we know He is there with us. We know the white heat of His love. Let us put aside all of the distractions in our hearts and give to Him a most ardent love. Beg Him to help us to love Him deeper.
10. Jesus: Are you empty? Where do you go when you are empty, My beloved ones, for it is only in My Heart that you will be filled! You search and you wonder and you look - you look at a senseless world that has forgotten God and where do they turn as they look for more and more and more? Nothing on the face of this earth feeds the starved soul but the love of God. If you are hungry, come to Me and I will give you rest.
Song: A Song from Jesus
Jesus is Crowned with Thorns
Jesus: Are you racked with pain? They pounded into My head a sharp crown of piercing thorns and the blood ran down My face, into My eyes and My ears. How many mental torments do you go through, all through the day? How many sufferings in your heart? Will you long for love? Nothing will fill that craving in your hearts. Nothing...and I cry out from the tabernacle, "I am longing and I am thirsting for you. I have all that you need. Come to Me and I will give you rest!"
1. Song: Come to Me, all who are weary, and find rest for your soul, Come to Me all who are burdened and I will comfort you.
Jesus: It is in your ordinariness, in living every moment of your day with love, that you will know peace and joy in your heart.
2. R. For 30 years on this earth Jesus lived the quiet life.
Jesus: It is in your ordinariness that you can prepare for sainthood. Accepting all of those things that I give to you, responding with love, I ask this of you, My dear ones. To spend every moment doing the Father's will and loving all your brothers as I live in you and minister to them through you. Put on Christ in all of your actions and let Me minister to this world that is hurting and in pain, through you.
3. Jesus: See as I see. Ask to love as I love. Ask and you shall receive for I am attentive to all of your needs.
R. Dear Holy Spirit, descend upon us and fill our hearts with the fire of God's love. That we too will love as you want us to love this day.
4. R. They spit on Jesus and they mocked Jesus. They said cruel things to Jesus, and Jesus took everything that they gave to Him and He did not holler back. Jesus accepted what they gave Him. He comes to show us the way. How many times are we ridiculed and it wouldn't do us any good to answer back? His way was silent suffering many times. Jesus accepted the sufferings. Jesus carried His cross. Jesus' way is the way of love. Jesus' Heart was overwhelmed with love for those who persecuted Him and put Him to death!
5. Jesus: Is your heart torn within your chest, My beloved ones? Do you see the world in its coldness? Do you see the evil that exists? You are the light that I am sending into this darkened world. It is through you that I will minister to this world. You must stay rooted in Me. It is in Me that I can minister to this world that is suffering and in pain.
6. R. And He mounted the cross - the Son of God, the Almighty God, Jesus, the Son of God gave His all that we could be saved. Jesus' way is love. Jesus gives to us a Heart of love and He asks us to come and dwell in His Heart that He can operate in us in this world. Jesus loves us. Jesus died for each person. He gave His life for all of us.
7. R. Dear Holy Spirit, I need the fire of God's love. I cannot love as You want me to love. I ask you to permeate my being and to fill me with the fire of God's love, to come and to change my heart that I may love more and more as Jesus loved.
Jesus: I call to you this day to carry out My life, death and resurrection in your lives. When you are down on the ground and you are suffering and in pain, I am there. I am attentive to your every need. Let go and surrender and let Me fill you with My Divine Love.
8. R. I went to the heart of Mary. Christ was formed in the womb of Mary, I too am formed more and more in the image and likeness of God in Mary's Immaculate Heart - my spiritual womb. I want to be more and more like Jesus, through the action of the Holy Spirit. We are sanctified through this action of the Holy Spirit. We are made more holy. We unite deeper and deeper in the burning abyss of the Heart of Jesus, the Heart of endless love!
9. R. And it is in this red cavern of His Divine Love that we unite to our beloved Father. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are one. We are united more deeply to the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, by dwelling in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Let us consecrate our hearts to Them and ask Them to help us to dwell in Their Hearts. The world is cold and dark. When we are persecuted and there is not any place to go, let us go to Their Hearts - this is our refuge.
Song: I am your Sacred Heart
10. R. Think of how it is to have a small cut and think of how it was for Jesus to have thorns pounded into His head and have blood pouring down His face. This is the love that He has for us, His Sacred Head, surrounded by a crown of piercing thorns. Let us see You and know Your love, for we are blind and do not realize that what we seek is Your Divine love. We search and we wonder and we are not satisfied. Only You will satisfy the craving in our soul. Let us go to You all through the day. Spend 'little' moments talking to You. Spend time every day alone with You, as we would with any person that we love deeply.
Song: God's Love
Jesus Carried His Cross
R. Jesus took all the sins of the world upon Himself and He carried the cross on His back.
1. R. They mocked Him and they poked at Him and they pushed Him and He fell to the ground - always the look of love and peace on His face. In the greatest sufferings He remained at peace for He knew the Father's will. The Father loves us with the deepest love for He created us and there is not any other person that is like us that can carry out the plan that the Father has for us. Let us go to the Heart of Jesus for it is there that we unite more deeply to the love of the Father.
2. Song: I am Your Sacred Heart
R. And He came to this earth and He gave His life that we would be saved and we would be with Him forever and ever in Heaven, in deepest union with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Song: I am Your Sacred Heart
Jesus: Are you hungry? What do you need to feed your starved soul?
3. Jesus: Look at your world, America! Do you see the violence and the hatred? Do you see the children that are murdered in the womb of their mother? This is the hunger of your world. You are My faithful ones that I am sending out to this world to carry the messages of My burning love. Open your heart wide for I am giving to you abundant graces to join ever closer to My Divine love, graces given to you, My precious souls. Open your heart and let Me fill you with My Divine Love.
4. Jesus: Many are called but few are chosen. You have been chosen to join in the deepest love with Me. Suffer. I carried My cross on My back. I know you carry your crosses this day. Come and unite with Me. These are great gifts, given to you, that you will grow deeper in your life in Me. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God and I give to you from My abundant love.
5. Jesus: When you fell to the ground and your chin was skinned, did you know that it was in that moment that I was closest to you, that it was in that moment that you turned to Me? Did you know that it was in that moment that you shared your suffering with Me? In sharing in My suffering you knew Me, deeper and deeper. Thank God for all that you are given, for these are great gifts, given from God who loves you!
6. R. We see His Heart surrounded with a crown of thorns, but during His bitter Passion He was comforted so by our acts of love that we give to Him this day.
Jesus: Will you help make reparation to My Heart for the offenses committed against Me and My Father and the Holy Spirit? Will you come and tell us of your love? I wait and I long for your love. I wait to hear words from your lips that you love Me!
7. R. I am so one with Jesus and Jesus took me to the deepest chamber of His Heart. His Heart is an endless abyss of burning love. I united with love itself. In that moment there was not any wanting or longing. There was not fear in my heart, for I knew the love of the Almighty God and to know His love is to feel secure in Him.
8. R. The love that Jesus has for us is such love. See Him on the ground with the cross on His back, covered with blood and wounds all over His body, such love Jesus has for us. Jesus says: "I give to you this love this day and so many turn their backs on Me. What more do you want?"
9. Song: Come to Me all who are weary and find rest for your soul. Come to Me all who are burdened I will comfort thee.
R. Jesus had the look of perfect peace on His face. Mary and Jesus always complied to the will of the Father, for it is in living in His will that we will have peace and joy in our lives. Even in the midst of suffering – we will have this peace and joy.
10. Hail Mary
The Crucifixion
1. R. They pounded into Jesus' hands sharp nails and Jesus' feet were nailed to the cross. Jesus' head was crowned with thorns. These are the wounds He suffered for love of us. Nails that went all the way through His hands and His feet! We whimper and complain about the little sufferings that we have in our life – He shows us His hands and His feet!
2. R. Jesus' way is love. Jesus' way is sacrifice. Jesus sacrificed Himself for love of us. It is in every Mass that we unite in this oneness. We suffer - we identify this with His suffering. We unite in the Mass the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present. We mystically mount the cross with Him, as we climb with Jesus on the cross and spread our arms and offer ourselves as a sacrifice to the Father. The Father is most pleased. As we die to ourselves in the ways that are not like God, as we give our all to be as the Father intended us to be - that is when the Father is most pleased. In the sacrifice, we are united in deepest love with Him. In Communion, He gives Himself to us in this act of most intimate love, Jesus cries out for us to give ourselves to Him. This is a deep act of intimate love. In the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist He gives Himself to us and we give ourselves to Him, this is a most intimate act of love for Divinity is united with us and it is at this time when He gives Himself to us that we receive such abundant graces.
3. R. Death/Resurrection - that permeates our lives as we die each day in our struggles and we rise to new life. As we go to each Mass and we die with Him on the cross and we receive the bread of life, the true bread come down from heaven. He gives this bread to us and we share in His Divine life!
4. Jesus: Are you hungry? What do you use to feed your starved souls?
Song: I Am the Bread of Life
R. The most intimate act of love – the Holy Eucharist. God gave Himself on the cross and He gives Himself, in His Divinity and humanity, in the Eucharist to us. In order to unite in the intimate act of love between us and God, we must surrender and give ourselves to Him. This is the most intimate act of love, this is what the starved soul craves, intimacy with God. It is that for which we were created. We were created to know, love and serve God. Nothing on the face of this earth will satisfy this craving in our soul.
5. Jesus: What do you use to feed your starved soul? What pleasures that are momentary? All things must be rooted in Me - rooted deeply in Me.
6. R. The Mass is the most perfect sacrifice offered to the Father. In uniting ourselves in oneness, we die with Him that we may rise in Him. Jesus is the Bread of Life and He gives us Himself to eat, to feed us. Bread and wine - that which nourishes our body is changed into His Body and Blood to nourish our souls. Nothing on the face of this earth feeds the starved soul but the love of God.
7. R. In the Mass we unite to the sacrifice of Jesus. The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present in the Mass. We want to be united in deep union with Him in the Holy Eucharist. The Father wants this. Let us be a holy sacrifice for it is most pleasing to the Father for us to unite to Jesus in the Mass. Every word in the Mass is so beautiful. It is God's great love given to us - Jesus gives Himself intimately to us in the Holy Eucharist. Let us at this time help make reparation to God for the indifference and injustice committed against Jesus' Heart, and help make reparation for the blasphemies against His Mother's heart.
8. R. On First Friday and First Saturday, They want so much for us to help make reparation to Their Hearts for the injustices done to God and to the Mother of God. We comfort Their Hearts with deep acts of love. This rosary is said on the 5th of the month in honor of the blasphemies against the Blessed Virgin, against her Motherhood, her Virginity, and against her Immaculate Conception, and for the five wounds of Jesus.
9. R. What flowed forth from His pierced Heart was blood and water; water, a symbol of Baptism. We are made sharers in His Divine life. Blood, a symbol of the Eucharist whereby our hungry souls are fed with His Body and Blood. As we see at Mass the priest raises up the Host and says "This is My Body". The priest raises the chalice and says, "This is My Blood." It is here Jesus says to us, I give you Myself. How can you walk around with such irreverence? You are My chosen ones that will carry this message to the world and I am giving you such graces to be so close to Me, so that you will carry the message of love to others who want to love more in the deepest, deepest way. I give you love from the deepest recesses of My Heart! Come through this wound and you will know My Divine life, My Divine love. You will know My Heart. I give you Myself.
Song: A Song from Jesus
Song: Take and Eat
R. This is the mystery of God's love, the mystery that was hidden until Jesus came to this world and it is revealed through Jesus Christ, His Son and He gives Himself to us in the moment when we receive Him in the Holy Eucharist. He reveals deep insights into the mystery of God's love. It is a grace given by God to those that He chooses. Let us treat Him with the deepest reverence and thank Him over and over again for the grace to share this deep intimacy with Him!

Holy Spirit Novena using the Holy Spirit
Novena Booklet. After the novena,
read the appropriate meditation. For example:
period 1, day 1; period 1, day 2; etc. This will
continue until further indicated.
It is enormously
important that you feel as a body praying
together, asking for the special coming of
the Holy Spirit. After the meditation
say: "We consecrate the Movement, Our Lady of
the Holy Spirit Center, the Church and the world
to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary." Ask that the Blood
of Jesus be spread on the Movement, Our Lady of
the Holy Spirit Center, the Church and the
world. Begin the 6:30 p.m.
prayer service as usual. II. Begin the 6:30
prayer service Begin praying: Dear
Father in the name of Your Son Jesus, in the
Holy Spirit, through the powerful intercession
of the Virgin Mary, with all the angels and the
saints and the souls in purgatory, we join in
one mind and one heart and ask the Holy Spirit
to come to all the world in a special way,
especially to our priests. We pray all prayers
for the priests and the renewal of the Church
and the world and for the Shepherds of Christ
intentions. By the precious Body and Blood of
Jesus we cast out Satan far from this place, our
families, the Shepherds of Christ Movement, Our
Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, the Church and
the world. We ask the Blood of Jesus be spread
on us, the Shepherds of Christ Movement, Our
Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, the Church and
the world. We beg for grace and mercy for the
world and wish to make reparation to the Hearts
of Jesus and Mary. We give our hearts to Jesus
and Mary with all gathered here in love. We wish
to be forgiven for offending one another. We
love You God, help us. Sing
A Song from Jesus. Refrain: "I
come to you with greatest love, I am your loving
Savior. I am your God, I died for you, I come
to you this day." Then begin the
prayers of the Good Shepherd (Shepherds
of Christ Prayer Manual). Sing
The Rosary song Refrain:
"Oh the rosary, the rosary is the love of Their
two Hearts, Oh the rosary, the rosary is the
love of Their two Hearts." Begin the rosary.
Please use the
Rosary Books and the Rosary Aves.
The important thing is to pray the prayers and
the rosary at 6:30 p.m., if possible. (Rosary
mysteries need to be according to the Rosary
Novena.) Read the Ten
Commandments. 1. I, the Lord, am
your God. You shall not have other gods besides
me. Pray
A Prayer of Thanksgiving then read the
Daily Message for the day.

Dear Friends,
I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in love.
When Mary's image was knocked out what remained was an old grand piano someone who is now dead (old age) gave that was there grandma's. It did not work then.
It was painted and very, very old and I would worry about the legs giving out.
Jesus told me to replace it a while ago.
We had someone come and it never got out of here yet–
Jesus told me to buy a new piano by the alter, behind where Mary's image is to play when we have the services up there.
I can only do this if we have the money He says.
We will begin a fund for the piano behind where Mary's image was destroyed on March 1, 2004.
This is a lasting honor to contribute to this.
Thanks, RitaCall Doris – 513-477-4242

Jesus asked us to finish one room in the priest house, so a priest could stay there. We have been working on this room for 6 months. We need $3,000 for the carpet, shades and furniture. Could anyone help us with a donation for the priest house to complete this room?We have been working on the priest house for 6 years. Jesus would like a priest be able to stay there.
Thanks

Guiding Light
- Reflect on the Word
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.

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 - 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 |
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 |
