Mary Our Model

R. The first reading was about the disobedience of Eve, how she sinned and how it displeased God, then at the Psalm (the Magnificat) I saw the contrast between Eve and Mary, how Mary is entirely pure, chosen by God.

    Then, at the Gospel I saw how Jesus gave Mary to us as our spiritual Mother. Mary is the New Eve; Jesus is the New Adam. I see Jesus on the cross above Mary; she is below. He gives the seed, she receives it, she is all pure.

    Mary is the model. We are tainted by the sin of Adam and Eve, with a weak fallen nature, mothered by the purest human person, Mary. Mary mothers us in her heart. We live in Him in His Heart. His life flows through these Two Hearts. We must stay, dwelling in Their Hearts. I keep struggling between Eve and Mary. I need the grace to dwell forever in Jesus and Mary's Hearts, then the grace will constantly flow and it will be Him living in me. Mary will protect me from the devil.

    The devil tempts us. He works on us. Eve gave into the devil. We go to Mary, she crushed the head of satan.

    We are the children of the Light. There is a constant struggle between light and darkness.

Love is Giving

Message given through Rita Ring

R. This is transcribed from a tape at 5:00 A.M. Jesus wished this message passed out at the Farm.

Jesus: My dear child, I ask you to surrender. When will you come to the womb of My Mother and surrender? It is there that you will receive My life. It is there that the Holy Spirit works in you to sanctify you, to change you from your willful and controlling ways. Love is the gift of self to one another. You must give yourselves. I gave Myself on the cross. Your life is a constant learning process of how to love more perfectly. Your ways of love are imperfect ways. You are molded. You are shaped by the Spirit within the heart of My Mother to My ways of love. As you dwell in her heart and My Heart, you are My work of art, for you are formed and molded into My image through the Holy Spirit. You must die to yourself child, die to yourself that I can live in you. You are resistant to change. You want to hold on to those things that are familiar to you. Many times those things that are familiar to you are not My ways. I am calling you to surrender, that the Holy Spirit can work within you and form you in the womb of My Mother more to My image and likeness. I am Jesus. I come to you to make you holy and loving. I live in you. I minister to this hurting world through you. You are transformed more and more into My image and likeness through the Holy Spirit. The incarnation continues, and you are formed and molded into My image and likeness. I live in this world in you, My beloved ones. You must surrender and let Me possess your soul. Let Me live in you. You are afraid. You are afraid in your hearts that you will be left out. Love is the gift of self to another. You will not give as long as you hold on to your selfish ways. It is in giving that you receive. It is in loving that you will be loved, I loved you first, and I give to you Myself. You must focus on how I love you. You act lovingly when you feel loved. I love you so much. Will you listen to Me and realize that I love you? You are saturated with My love, but your hearts must be open that I can fill you and mold you into My ways. Within the heart of My Mother, the Holy Spirit works to make you holy. It is in dwelling in Our Hearts, the Hearts of greatest love, that you will be saturated with My life and My love. The more I live in you, the more I act in you. You must surrender. It is an act of your will to love one another. I loved to My death. I loved when I was persecuted. I loved when I was beaten. I loved you so much. I came into this world a helpless baby to show you how to love. You must surrender and give yourself. Love is giving of yourself. The key is to focus on the giving and not the receiving. Surrender to Me, and I will give to you My Divine love. And you, My child, will have enough, I provide for all your needs. You act selfishly when you are afraid. It is in fear that you punish yourself and punish all those you touch. My life will flow through you when you are an instrument of love.

R. When I give of myself, I am happy. When I am selfish, I am unhappy. Happiness is a loving heart.

Prayer: I love You, Jesus. I love you, Mary. It is for the sake of the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of the Immaculate Heart I am working. God, come and strengthen me, I want to be one in Thee. Come and live in my soul.

Permanent Signs

Jesus: I have given permanent signs of the authenticity of these messages. Time is urgent and the messages need to be supported and circulated by the leaders in the Shepherds of Christ Movement.

Over and over again, I have told you what would happen if you ignore the messages. I am asking you to see that each and every person involved in the Shepherds of Christ Movement read the message of March 7, 1994 and March 13, 1994. Please discern and circulate the message of March 20, 1994, before the end of the building collapsed.

I am asking all to help circulate the video of April 17, 1994. I have given several permanent signs in this video. The sun spins in the beginning: the sun spins when Rita is reading a message from God's Blue Book 1. These are permanent signs I have given to prove that I am delivering these messages.

I ask you to circulate the video from September 15, 1995. The mist received around the Sorrowful Mother is her sign given that she truly appeared daily from July 5, 1994 until September 5, 1995. This is your sign to help in circulating the Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

You do not realize the importance of these rosaries and messages to help bring about the completion of the Fatima message.

The rosaries given are teaching tools to help bring about the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of the Immaculate Heart.

This is the plan of the Father to help bring about the era of peace. Hearts will fervently love My Heart and that of My Mother's heart when you help in circulating the rosaries and messages.

I have given three permanent signs to be used to help circulate these messages which are a main source of communication for the completion of the Fatima message.

Time is urgent. I am asking again that a special gathering be held on October 13, 1996 and the chapters from Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio be made aware that I am strongly encouraging them to come to the gathering.

At this time, I am requesting you have available these three signs: the video of April 17, 1994, the video of Sept. 5, 1995, and Fr. Carter's picture of July 2, 1996.

I am requesting that you circulate as many live rosaries as possible and that these and all three Blue Books be made available. I am asking you to please publish the Rosary Book as soon as possible.

The funds will come when you circulate the messages and rosaries. The live rosaries on tapes will help move many hearts and teach them about their role as My apostles.

I am Jesus. This is the mighty medicine I am sending to you to help move the hearts to My love. These messages are of great importance in the completion of the Fatima message.

This is the Father's plan. These are My messages I am sending to you to help bring about the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of the Immaculate Heart.

I am Jesus. I thank you for all of your work in spreading the movement. I am giving to you great grace and financial assistance when you help spread these messages.

R. Jesus gave the message yesterday because it was the completion of the Rosary Novena. Also, the second novena which started yesterday will be completed September 5th for the petition part (27 days in petition). September 5th is the anniversary of one year since Mary quit appearing after appearing daily for 14 months and the anniversary of the video with the mist surrounding the Sorrowful Mother.

 

August 12, 1996

Mary Appeared all Night

R. The Church, the world and the individual Christian are in the state of becoming more and more in the image of Jesus. The devil is pressing down. I see Adam and Eve sinned. I see them to the extreme left. I see the New Adam, the New Eve. Mary and Jesus to the extreme right. We are on our journey home. We have a tainted, fallen nature, we tend toward sin.

    I saw myself pleading to my Mother, pleading and pleading to help me. She was in the Sorrowful Mother statue above me. I was below. I was a little child in my Mother's house. I visited her. I pleaded. My Mother has appeared to me over and over again, to comfort me and teach me His way. I was looking up and I was begging her to help me. She softly told me I must go to her heart, to her spiritual womb - I would be safe there. I see how the Incarnation goes on in us.

    I see how the Incarnation goes on in us. "Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars." Revelation 12:1  Mary was pregnant. Mary is always bringing forth her children. She is the pure one, the sinless one Eve sinned.

    We are the little ones in her womb. Life comes from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through the heart of Mary and into us and we act as channels of His life, living in this world today. The more we are saturated with His life, the more He lives in us in the world. The more we are one in Him, the more He lives in us in the world. We must want to be likened to Him.

    I have been going through the greatest struggles ever. I look up to Mary as a little child and I see. I am outside, she is above me. I am pleading. She says, "come to my heart." The last struggles I have gone through have been so intense. I could only find peace seeing myself in her heart, my spiritual womb, all curled up and protected. Embryos in the womb of their mother have no cares, no concerns, no worries. Dwelling in the heart of Mary is how Jesus wants us to be. In heaven there are no worries, all our anxieties are lifted. This is how it is for an embryo. They have no cares no fears, they are supplied their life through their mother. The life flows from God into the womb of the mother. Mary's Immaculate Heart is our spiritual womb. Mary is bringing us forth in the image and likeness of God through the Holy Spirit. Mary is bringing forth the Church in the Holy Spirit, more and more in the image and likeness of Jesus. Mary is Mother of the Church.

    If I remain outside of her womb, the devil presses in on me. I deal with all the problems of my fallen human nature and others. The more a person tends toward the wounded human nature, in vices, the devil has an open door, the more the devil works through them. The more a person tends toward God, in virtue, the more they are likened to God.

    If I dwell in the spiritual womb of Mary, the Father sees me as the little child in Mary's Heart. The more I dwell in Mary's Heart, I will live more according to God the Father's will in love. If I unite all of my actions as an offering to my Father, united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, going on around the world, the Father looks down and sees His Son and accepts my sacrifice, outpouring grace, spilled on the earth.

    How can the Father refuse me His little child when I come united to the Mass in the Heart of Mary.

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 further I am from dwelling in Their Hearts, the more satan can work. I go to Mary's heart and she takes me to Jesus' Heart. I want to be saturated with His grace in me.

    Jesus was formed in Mary's womb by the power of the Holy Spirit. We are formed within her spiritual womb, her Immaculate Heart, more and more in the image of Jesus, through the power of the Holy Spirit.

    The Incarnation goes on in us. Mary's heart dwells most perfectly in the Heart of Jesus. She is the pure one. She is the sinless one. She is our model. We tend toward sin, dwelling in Their Hearts makes a difference. As long as I am outside Their Hearts, the devil will be able to work on me. In the heart of Mary I am held secure and protected by her.

    Do we want to be holy? Do we want to love? Do we fall when we do not want to? Do we give into unloving thoughts towards others in our mind? Are we afraid that we will be unloved?

    Jesus is the source of all life; Jesus is love. Jesus came to this earth, He lived, died and rose on the 3rd day We unite  to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass — the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present. Through the pierced Heart of Jesus the Church was born, water for baptism and blood for the Eucharist. We see the blood and water pour out from His pierced Heart. We see that God grants grace and mercies. Life comes from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through the heart of Mary, into us and we act as a channel of His life in the world.

    As we dwell in Their Hearts, as we become one in Them, and we unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, immense graces are released.

    I had three visions: The glistening, reflective, golden light, beyond all description, came from the cross, through the exposed Eucharist onto and in front of the altar of sacrifice, March 26, 1996. The first vision began at 8:00 a.m., with the bell tolling and ended at 9:00 with the bell tolling.

    The second vision was on Holy Saturday night, the Vigil of Easter. We hear the readings of Genesis on creation, the readings about Noah, the readings about Abraham and His son, the readings of Exodus, the sea was divided and they passed into the promised land. Isaiah 4: 2-6 His Heart is that refuge that shelters us from the rain He gave me a song. We will be given water to quench our thirst. Isaiah 55: 1-11, Romans 6: 3-11 and Colossians 3: 1-4.

    In the second vision: The reflective light came from St. Joseph holding out the child, to the bottom was the Resurrected Lord and grace reigned down on the flowers and the earth.

    The dawning is upon us. The reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the triumph of Mary's heart is near.

    It will come when hearts are one in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

    The third vision had began at the consecration of the Mass. The bell tolled exactly at 7:00 a.m. at the consecration. Then it started: the sanctuary was adorned in celestial light and it remained so after the Mass. Again the immense grace looked as if it was spread on the flowers and a fountain (that was there - from Easter). It was now after Easter the life will flow through the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass when hearts are one in Their Hearts.

    The bell tolls, we unite to the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present in the Mass. Every act that we perform is a heroic deed when we are acting according to the Father's will and acting in love, dwelling in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, united to the Mass.

    "Oh, holy fountain of grace, the Church, the Holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the Hearts of greatest love and fountain through which God's life flows. Divine life flows through the Hearts of greatest love."

    I see myself in the early stages of life. So unformed. I am ready to be molded more and more into His image. I need the life of God flowing through My Mother. When I received the experience on December 15, 1995, my human nature was elevated to such heights. I see myself now on the way. In heaven I will be pure and sanctified, full of grace, wrapped in the embrace of the Trinity.

    I see myself in the heart of Mary, my spiritual womb. I see the Holy Spirit surrounding me in a white lacy mist, moving and working in me. I see myself in the Heart of Christ. I could never before put myself with Christ on the cross. I saw myself lined up with Him on the cross, under Him. I see myself, within His Heart as He dies - I die to my selfish ways. I am in His Heart. He lives in me. I unite to Him in the Mass on the cross.
 

Romans 6: 3-11

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

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

  

Colossians 3: 1-4

Since you have been raised up to be with Christ, you must look for the things that are above, where Christ is, sitting at God’s right hand. Let your thoughts be on things above, not on the things that are on the earth, because you have died, and now the life you have is hidden with Christ in God. But when Christ is revealed-and he is your life-you, too, will be revealed with him in glory. 
 

R. I must surrender and I must look into the eyes of Jesus. Jesus is suffering and loves us, even when we sin, He still loves us. When we see a person's eyes, we see a connection to the soul and the heart.

    I know so much from Jesus looking into Mary's eyes. I have been wrapped in love's embrace when suffering. This is most powerful to be one with Mary and Jesus. To meditate on the suffering of Mary and Jesus looking into each others eyes on the way to Calvary, can comfort us.

    Look into the eyes of the child Jesus, as Mary did at birth.

    Look into our eyes at birth - our eyes are bright and beautiful. Then, we begin to suffer, and our hearts turn colder, Our eyes show our hearts and our soul. Only in love are our eyes bright and beautiful. Hearts that are pure reflect the life inside.

    I knew the embrace of Their eyes on the way to Calvary. He has allowed me to experience the embrace of Their suffering Hearts. It was the most comforting love.
 
Jesus: Comfort My Heart with your suffering I have allowed you to suffer great suffering to comfort My aching Heart.
 
    I loved all, despite any differences or misunderstandings. I loved to My death. So you cannot love those who persecute you, who cause you pain, who reject you and think you are not rooted in the truth? You must model yourself after Me!
 
    In love's embrace, see the love of My Mother and My love when we peered into the eyes of one another on the way to Calvary. This was pure love. Pure love, loves all. Mary loved those men who persecuted Me. Her heart was pierced with a sword, her love was the deepest love. Love that is pierced by an object is the deepest love. Love, love, love, love with a wounded heart and know the depth of My love.
 
R. In Their loving embrace, in the meeting of the eyes in such sorrow there was such comfort to Their Hearts.

The Beating Heart of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

Jesus: I have opened My Heart. It was for the souls and future generations. The picture you present to this world in your writings and the tapes is the Beating Heart of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

             

                From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.       

The Holy Spirit

Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"

Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us.

What Happened August 12th and August 13th, 1996

R. I watched her as she appeared over 500 times, Our Lady of Light, wailing and crying every time we would meditate on "The Finding in the Temple" in the rosary. Swords pierced my heart, for she wailed aloud for the children of the earth and begged me, begged me to spread the consecration and the rosary to the youth of America and the world. Now I am in anguishing pain helping to spiritually bring forth the children, Mary's little precious ones, into greater spiritual light. I beg, I plead as I did August 12, 1996. Mary appeared all night on that date and I prostrated myself and begged and begged to the Father to help me.

She appeared for several hours August 13, 1996, in the early morning. It was dark outside both times. I cried aloud in pain as I looked at the Sorrowful Mother all lighted up with a sword in her Heart. Her face was sweet and beautiful and my heart hurt so bad I felt I could not suffer the pain.

I begged and cried to the Father as never before that night. I laid on the floor and I said, "I know this is the truth, I believe, help me, help me, help me."

Soon there would be a major event in the Movement. Our existing president, John W., took office at this time, and a beautiful woman, Mary R., came in to help with the school rosary program. I believed that the Father had answered my anguishing cries to Him that night.

On the Eve of August 13, 1996, before I went to Tom's farm for the rosary, I was in the Sorrowful Mother Chapel at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. The Eucharist was exposed and it was about 5:00 p.m. I arrived to pray and the whole front of the room where Mary had appeared so many times was filled with a celestial aura, golden, as a golden veil, and she was adorned behind this veil. I saw light and beauty and the Consecrated Host in the monstrance before me. She appeared in such beauty and I cried. I cried and did not want to leave to go to the rosary. I experienced the presence of God there, and the beauty was so great I was awestruck and paralyzed, enveloped in ecstasy. I experienced His Presence, and saw the most glorious light.

 

River view from Tom's Farm

R. This is the site of the rosary at Tom's Farm
August 13, 1996 and August 27, 1996.

R. I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in love.

All of my experiences are recorded in notebooks, rosary meditations and materials spread throughout the Ministry on computers, discs, etc. I do not know how to use a computer.

There are so many things that have happened, but the experiences and dates are engraved in my soul. I write from all I remember of these experiences. On the morning of August 12, 1996, I was told to go to Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. There in those early morning hours Mary appeared all night. I remember the darkness of the Sorrowful Mother Chapel, black, and I only saw the light of Mary. She appeared in that same glorious light of hers, light like fluorescent, but not like that at all because it is like nothing I have ever seen. I cried out to her and begged the Father to please help me to do what They had asked me, and all of us, to do. I felt I prayed as never before.

The next morning of the 13th of August Mary appeared again in the same place for several hours in the same exact setting in that white light in the darkened Sorrowful Mother Chapel in the corner. In the late afternoon of the 13th, I would go to the Sorrowful Mother Chapel again.

The Eucharist was exposed and the whole front of the chapel was covered with a celestial aura and she appeared again. This time the light and the aura were a golden light, almost like a gold glistening veil across the whole front of the chapel in front of the exposed Eucharist and before Mary. I did not want to leave there. I drove to the rosary at Tom's farm, the mikes for the rosary were missing. The younger shepherds had to go to the store to get some mikes. John Weickert was there for the first time on the farm. I asked him to say the 7 Sorrows of Mary. What appeared to me to be a mixed-up situation without the mikes and equipment turned out to be a night of great grace. I didn't know all what was happening. Here is an account of what happened to two others there at the rosary. It is accounted because Father Carter asked that it be written down.

Mary spoke in the rosary. She gave the following message at the beginning of the mystery of the Visitation.

Mary had been rather silent in the rosaries for much of the year since about February, except for a rosary she delivered April 25, 1996, for the youth at a Junior Shepherds of Christ Meeting.

It was a gift when Mary spoke that evening August 13, 1996, (she would deliver Mary's Message of August 27, 1996, two weeks later on Tom's farm.

Mary's Message is the message she wishes circulated with her image in Florida).

The message that follows is the message Mary delivered August 13, 1996 on the farm after some silence in the rosary. Very soon John Weickert became our President.

R. At this meeting August 13, 1996, two people saw an angel. They also saw a blue light around our president. Dan came for the first time to Tom's farm that evening.

 
 

August 13, 1996 - Before the Sorrowful Mother Statue

Starving for God's Love

Jesus: The picture that is painted in My churches is a dry, inactive heart. My Heart is on fire for love of My beloved ones. My Heart is on fire for love of My beloved ones. I want love. I want to be loved. I want to give My love. I want emotion. I am a Person. I gave My life for you. This is the great gift I give through you to this world. You will not have peace in your hearts when you are divided. As you communicate to one another, you will share the treasures of My Heart to this world.

    The world longs for real love. The world longs to be fed with the love their hearts crave. Think of a starving child, a child that has not eaten in days and does not understand.

    You world is starving for My burning love. Nothing on the face of this earth will fill the longing of the soul that craves the Almighty God.

    I entrust to you, My Heart, alive and beating in this world through these writings given to you. It is in being in one heart that this world will share the treasures I give to you. I am giving to you great graces to share these insights. Satan does not want these writings to ever reach the world. (Look at the opposition you have received at the Center about God's Blue Books and Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.) Satan knows what My messages do to the hearts. These messages, given through you both, Rita and Fr. Carter, will melt away the cold hearts of the priests.

    This was My greatest agony in the Garden – My unfaithful religious, the ones I wanted most to love Me. It was for them I sweat blood, My chosen ones - and they treat Me as a dead object - when I am a Heart burning with vibrant love, alive in this world today!

    I am alive! Tell My priests and My religious, tell them how I long, and I wait for a love affair with them. Tell them how souls are dropping into hell like rain. They are starving for love and they go to the world to feed their hunger and they sin, over and over again, trying to satisfy their starving soul within.

    The priests are the key. You must reach them with My Heart, My Heart-felt messages, beating for love of them.

    Oh, that a priest would know how I long for their tender love! Oh, that they would know the great gifts I have waiting for them! Oh, that they would know how I will teach them about love if they come and wait with Me before the tabernacle!

    They are going to the world for their love and their answers. It hurts My aching Heart, for they wear the title, 'Father' but they do not come to Me for their love. Their hearts are filled with the pleasures of the world. They come to Me with cold hearts and they teach the world with these cold hearts. I love, I love, I love My holy priests. I wait for them to come and I give them the greatest graces. When they talk and celebrate Mass, I outpour My love and My grace to My people through them.

    It was during My Passion they comforted My soul the most, as it was during My Passion I suffered the most for My unfaithful ones.

    Oh, teach them of My burning love. Give them these writings about My Heart of Love. Tell them of My lament for their love and tell them, tell them: I wait for them with a Heart ablaze. I wait and I wait. I want them - I long for them, they are precious to Me!

    I am Jesus. You are My Heart beating in this world. The greatest saints have not experienced or seen what you have seen. I beg you to unite in Holy Love.

Jesus Wants His Heart Venerated Next to Mary's Heart

R. Jesus wants His Heart venerated next to Mary's heart. Jesus talks to me. He lets me go through immense feelings and ecstasies.

    He wants feeling love, burning love. He calls out. I want you to love Me!

    Jesus wants us to go through the heart of Mary to experience His deep feelings of love.

    There is a whole explanation of men and women and their roles given to me on August 13, 1996. (Mary appeared two times to me on August 13, 1996, we received the message and the message on feeling, all were received on August 13th.)

    Mary gave a message in the rosary on August 13, 1996. She said it four or five times. I could not deliver the message. People at the Farm said "you should have heard your voice - it changed like no other voice when Mary talked." She said she never gave this message before and it was urgent. Emily has the tape. August 13, 1917 was when the children were jailed and Mary couldn't appear at Fatima. These writings are being blocked. They are a major source of the communication for the completion of the Fatima Message, so it is no accident that Mary appeared and revealed a lot to me on August 13, 1996. Jesus revealed many of the differences between men and women on this date and we got a message from Jesus that day.

The Bell Tolls.

    Jesus and Mary - Jesus was on the cross. His Heart was pierced with a lance. Life comes from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through Mary, to us. Mary's heart was invisibly pierced with a sword. The grace flows as a shower through her heart in the seven sacraments, seven slits in which the fountain of life flows. The gifts of the Spirit flow through her heart. Her Heart is the sanctuary of the Holy Spirit.

    Today there is a tendency toward male dominance, and some are priests, Jesus says. They think, some do not need Mary, some do not need a woman, they do not need a spiritual mother. They have disregarded our heavenly Mother and her message of Fatima. They do not want to give their hearts to Mary. As Jesus said, the Father chose Mary. The Father chose Mary to be the way He sent His Son in the world. The Father says we must come to Him as children, little and dependent. We are given a mother of our Christ-life. Jesus says, many priests do not want to recognize Mary's role. It is the Father's will, Mary is Mother of the Church. We are sanctified by the Holy Spirit in the heart of Mary. Mary is the pure one, she is sinless, she is the highest human person. We are to model our lives after our mother. She is the only sinless human person.

    Many women have tried to do things against the will of God. Many want equality with men. Some want what they want, not God's will. We see Jesus and Mary, the new Adam and the new Eve. Their roles are defined majorly on Calvary, all through Their lives, all through the rosary. The devil has tried to stop the rosary. Mary crushes the head of the devil.

    A problem comes in male dominance and women trying to be priests – they are both doing their own will. God has defined the roles. Because of male supremacy and ignoring these messages, they will have tremendous problems. The world is made up of men and women!

 

August 17, 1996

Jesus and Mary's Hearts

R. I want to write about what Jesus has told me about His tender, loving Heart. These are some of the deepest experiences I have had.

    Many men I have dealt with have rejected these messages many times.

Before Jacinta died, she told of other messages given her (during her illness) by Mary:

Tell everybody that God gives graces through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Tell them to ask grace from her, and that the Heart of Jesus wishes to be venerated together with the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Ask them to plead for peace from the Immaculate Heart of Mary, for the Lord has confided the peace of the world to her.   –Mary's Peace Plan from Heaven, pp.9-10
 

R. Mary is the highest human person. Mary is a woman. We cannot become really close to God in deepest intimacy unless we go through the heart of Mary. It is through the Heart of Jesus we unite to the Father. It is in the heart of Mary we are sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

Jesus: Oh, senseless men, that curse their heavenly Mother, Mary.

R. Mary, Mother of our spiritual life, Mother of the Church.

    Jesus has revealed to me great insights into the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. I have been given insights since December 1995, insights into the role of men and women in the Church and in the world. We were created men and women. Men are not women; women are not men. Christ is Chief priest. Christ is Priest, Prophet and King.

Hebrews 9: 12-14

and he has entered the sanctuary once and for all, taking with him not the blood of goats and bull calves, but his own blood, having won an eternal redemption. The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer, sprinkled on those who have incurred defilement, may restore their bodily purity. How much more will the blood of Christ, who offered himself, blameless as he was, to God through the eternal Spirit, purify our conscience from dead actions so that we can worship the living God.
 

R. The priest is a man. Mary is a spiritual Mother. Jesus gave to Mary the role of Mother. Mary is to nurture and love all her children.

Ephesians 5: 21-32

Be subject to one another out of reverence for Christ. Wives should be subject to their husbands as to the Lord, since, as Christ is head of the Church and saves the whole body, so is a husband the head of his wife; and as the Church is subject to Christ, so should wives be to their husbands, in everything. Husbands should love their wives, just as Christ loved the Church and sacrificed himself for her to make her holy by washing her in cleansing water with a form of words, so that when he took the Church to himself she would be glorious, with no speck or wrinkle or anything like that, but holy and faultless. In the same way, husbands must love their wives as they love their own bodies; for a man to love his wife is for him to love himself. A man never hates his own body, but he feeds it and looks after it; and that is the way Christ treats the Church, because we are parts of his Body. This is why a man leaves his father and mother and becomes attached to his wife, and the two become one flesh. This mystery has great significance, but I am applying it to Christ and the Church.
 

R. He did not make women priests. He chose twelve apostles, and He gave them the power to baptize and forgive sins. He told the apostles at the Last Supper to "do this in remembrance of Me." He made them male and female. From the side of Adam, He took Eve. Men's roles are the role of leading, of power, of being in charge; women's roles are the role of relating, nurturing, of loving.

    Jesus says we must come through the heart of His Mother to be close to Him.

    Mary's heart is a feeling heart; it is a woman's heart. Women's whole emphasis is on loving, communicating, relationships.

    A win-win relationship – our relationships today are not as they should be. Many relationships are win-lose, like playing sports. If we are doing the will of God, all relationships are win-win relationships.

 

August 23, 1996 - After Mass - Glenmary

August 13th at Tom's Farm

R. St. Michael appeared on the 13th at Tom's Farm to 2 women. We had such terrible trouble with the mikes. John Weickert was there.

    Mary appeared to me twice. Mary gave a message in the rosary.

    I begged her for signs that morning - she gave all that.
    I realized how God answered my prayers.

    Mass at Father Carter's was so wonderful, Mass of the Sacred Heart. I cried all through the Gospel about the Good Shepherd.

    I am so weak. So close to Jesus. I cried all through the Mass, between 2 and 3:00.

    Way to contact, be more deeply one with God, is to surrender - give myself to God.

  

August 24, 1996 - 5:00 a. m.

It Takes His Might

R. Mary appeared.

    These are insights from God. Man will not get them out - it takes the power of God, through our prayers. Man will assist God in His work. It is in the most fervent prayers.

    Diagram - little army

    The might of the Almighty God.
    Old Testament - "little in numbers, you have been chosen."

    We have been chosen by God, though little in number, we will spread the love of the Two Hearts throughout the world with His might.

    Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary are a big part of the completion of the Fatima message. I believe.

    I am one with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I operate for God. Men cannot do this work; it is the work of God. I realize this totally.

    It is in fervent prayer, it is with God's power. I must beg Him to take over, not go to men. Only God can get these rosaries and books out. This is why we pray. Imagine the joy in Mary's heart to see her Son after He rose.

 

August 25, 1996

Mary's Heart, Our Spiritual Womb

R. Mary took Christ to the temple. It is by dwelling in her heart she takes us to Christ. If we stay outside her heart, the devil keeps taking shots at us. In her heart she crushes the devil and he does not get to us.

    I crawl in our spiritual womb. (her Immaculate Heart). Mary takes me to Christ. I come out for a while and the devil attacks me. I must go back in her spiritual womb right away and let my Mother protect me!

  

August 25, 1996

Children of the Light

R. Thank you, Mary, our Mother, our refuge, our hope. Though we are pressed on, we find shelter in her heart and she takes us to the Heart of Jesus.

    She is our Mother of light. Children of light dwell within her.  "... and there appeared a woman clothed as the sun, the moon under her feet, and there were twelve stars above her head."

    We are the children of light. We dwell in Mary's Immaculate Heart, our spiritual womb. We are protected from the terrors of the night. In her womb we are the children of light. She crushes the serpent with her heel. We are the modern day apostles - that is why there are twelve stars about her head. We will shine as her apostles of light in the darkest night.

    Read beginning of August 25th message and August 13, 1996 message delivered from Mary when she appeared.

    St. Michael appeared on the farm to, two women; Mary was sorrowful in the December 5th message because children of light were disobedient and willful. Those at the Center did their own wills. On August 13, 1996, she sent St. Michael, John W. was surrounded by an aura of light.

    Mary will use the Shepherds of Christ Movement to light up the earth. We are her children of light and Jesus' Apostles of light.

    She is constantly bringing forth her children. As I saw in the sun, the heart tissue dividing, and Jesus said, "We, in the Shepherds of Christ, though many, would be one heart beating in the world." The Shepherds of Christ Movement, centered in dwelling in the Two Hearts is led by Fr. Carter. The sign given on July 2, 1996 and the message of July 4, 1996, calls him the "pillar of light to lead us from darkness into light." Mary appeared when I received the July 4, 1996 message in the Sorrowful Mother statue. Mary appears now, August 25, 1996, in the Lady of Grace statue, adorned in light. The Holy Spirit fills us. The Holy Spirit is the Spouse of Mary.

 

August 26, 1996

Mary Under the Cross

R. The devil keeps taking pot shots at us. We must stay within the heart of Mary. It is in Their Hearts we are protected.

    Mary carried Jesus to the temple. In the arms of Mary we go to Jesus. No matter how we think we have fallen - we can go to Him in her pure heart.

    Mary had to flee to Egypt with Jesus; Mary will protect us from the evil one.

    Mary searches for her lost children as she searched for the Child Jesus.

    We are wrapped in the embrace of Their love. Despite all sufferings of Jesus and Mary on the way to Calvary, They were comforted by looking into each others eyes. Jesus looked into the pure heart of Mary; Mary looked into the pure Heart of Jesus.

    We can look into each other's eyes for we dwell in Their pure Hearts, even though we sin venially. We are protected by dwelling in Their pure Hearts and we can still go to the depth of His Heart.

    We stand beneath the cross of Christ and we are one with our Mother and Jesus in this sacrifice. We offer ourselves to the Father. We beg for grace for mankind to be released on the human race.

    We comply to the Father's will.

    Jesus was locked in the tomb but He rose on the third day. We live His life, death and resurrection in our lives.

    We help in the work of redemption. It is one thing to be one in Their Hearts in prayer, but He wants us to be the lights shining in the darkness. Our whole life must be rooted in Him as we are dwelling in Their Hearts. He lives in us in the world.

  

August 27, 1996

Mary's Message from Rosary

R. Jesus requested that the Shepherds of Christ meetings be on Tuesday nights at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. The first meeting was held the last Tuesday in August, 1994. As I drove into Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, I heard Jesus say something like these are My Apostles of My Sacred Heart.

On August 27, 1996, two years later, Mary gave her message. This was the last Tuesday in August. She gave this message on Tom's farm. It was in the rosary that follows in the Assumption, meditation 8, Mary spoke through Rita. She gave this message in the rosary.

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

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

end of Mary's Message

R. We sat there and I remember the words coming from my throat. I felt the emotion, I felt like my whole being was rapt in sorrow, I felt the emotion of tears as I spoke in the rosary, but it wasn't coming from me, she spoke through me, in the rosary, so clearly, to deliver Mary's message.

    

August 29, 1996 - Feast of St. John, the Baptist

Mary Loves God Most Perfectly

R. I went to Immaculata. I was so drained, realizing people do not know what Jesus is saying. Such pain over this, such pain over what I know and cannot share.

    Thank God He sent His apostles in the Shepherds of Christ. They love to hear.

Experience: I am carried in the womb of Mary. She crushes the head of satan. I hear it crack under her feet.

    Mary loves God most perfectly. Go into her heart, Mary is all pure. Jesus was carried in her womb - she crushes the head of the serpent - satan!

October 4, 1995: I was told to pray to St. Michael, and to bless our homes, work and our children.

The angel said at Fatima: "Take and drink the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, horribly outraged by ungrateful men! Make reparation for their crimes and console your God."  –Fatima in Lucia's Own Words, op cit., pp.64-65.

My Prayer:

    Oh, blind and deaf and paralyzed world, that martyrs babies, that poisons its young, that has committed every vile sin there is. My heart cries out in the most deepest anguish from my soul as they open up to me the heavens and show me the glory. As I see the treasures found in the Heart of Jesus and know the love of God for His creatures. I am in utter pain and agony at their blindness and deafness.

    Oh, the treasure is here, my children, in the Mass and no one sees what they are missing. Oh, God of this earth, comfort my bleeding heart to know You and Your goodness and to suffer so for the blindness of men. My soul is suffering. My heart is bleeding. My God is forgotten and ignored. Oh, Heart of Jesus, I adore Thee!

    I cry Your tears and weep the tears of Your Mother. My heart is bleeding and in pain for I cry out by day and remain awake at night dwelling in Their Hearts, knowing this senseless world. Oh, how I love Thee!

    The pain is so bad. To have seen as I saw yesterday, the ecstasies and to see the senselessness of this world. Oh, that I might offer this pain for the sake of souls that grace and mercy be spilled out on the earth, that the dead hearts will be brought to life and no longer sleep a fatal sleep, the sleep that leads to eternal damnation.

 

August 30, 1996

Go Through Mary's Heart

R. We can tap into His Heart through Mary's Heart. We beg for grace to be outpoured. Life flows from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Jesus, through Mary's heart, into our hearts and we go out to the world. (It is life flowing from her heart and the Holy Spirit is truly saturating us with His life in there.)

    It is in her heart, grace is released like a shower from her invisible wounds (7), the seven gifts of the Spirit and the 7 sacraments. She is Mother of the Church.

    Life flows from God through Mary's Heart. We unite ever deeper to God going through Mary's heart for she is all pure and we are sinners. God gives us His Mother under the cross. He says: "Here is the sinless one, you must go through her heart, she is your Mother."

    We are helping in the work of redemption by uniting to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and consecrating our hearts to Jesus and Mary.

    Mary is Mother of Christ, Mother of the Church, and Mother of us. Mary cooperates in God's Saving Plan, Pope John Paul II said. Jesus is our Redeemer. Pope John Paul II says Mary had a unique "role of co-operator in the Redemption, which she exercised throughout her life and in a special way at the foot of the cross." Christ is the Redeemer.

 

September 8, 1996

In the Hearts of Jesus and Mary

R. Jesus wants His Heart venerated next to the heart of His Mother.

    She stood beneath the cross of Christ, His Most Sorrowful Mother, and He gave to us His Mother to be our Mother. She is Mary Immaculate, conceived without sin, the "sinless one." Christ was formed within her womb through the Holy Spirit. His very Heart was formed by her body. The life from the Father flowed through Mary's body, into Christ.

    Mary is our spiritual Mother. Today His life flows from her into us and we are formed within her spiritual womb more and more into the image and likeness of Jesus, through the permeating action of the Holy Spirit.

    Where has the devil tripped us up today? We see how the devil tempted Eve and she sinned. Adam and Eve, our first parents, sinned and we have a tainted human nature. Jesus came – through Baptism we receive a sharing in His life. Our knowing and loving capacity is elevated.

    Mary was conceived without sin. Mary stood beneath the cross and Jesus made Mary our spiritual Mother.

    Mary stands now by the altar of sacrifice. Grace will be spilled out on the earth, glistening grace, and many souls will be touched by this grace  when priests are celebrating the Mass and people are attending.

    We need the whole world uniting their activities, moment by moment, to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. We need souls to be holy souls. We beg for grace.

    This is the key: Mary is the gatekeeper of the Heart of Christ. It is through His Heart, pierced by a lance, that the sacramental life of the Church was born. Blood and water poured forth. Grace is released through His pierced Heart. Mary stands by the altar.

    How can I, a sinner, dwell deeply in the Heart of Christ? It is in going to the pure and sinless heart of Mary I can deeply dwell in the Heart of Christ.

    Mary stood beneath the cross and He gave us His Mother – the key to the riches found in His Heart.

    The Sacrifice of Calvary is Sacramentally made present in the Mass. The grace is outpoured. We want our interior offering to be pure.

    At Mass I give myself to Mary – it is in her pure heart that I am filled with pure love. I give myself to Christ and I dwell deeply in the Heart of Christ. I go through the pure and sinless heart of Mary.

    I offer my sacrifice to the Father in deep union with Jesus. I dwell in Jesus and Mary's Hearts. What a holy sacrifice. What great grace is released, for I am united so intimately with Christ in this sacrifice.

    This is a key: to offer sacrifice with hearts consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. I want grace to be outpoured on the earth.

    The devil has waged a war between the priest and Mary. Some do not like Mary and will not pray openly to her. Mary is the key to holiness.  

           From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.

The Holy Spirit

Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"

Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us.   end of excerpt

R. Men are different from women. Jesus made men priests. Jesus was a man. Jesus is our Savior. Jesus made Mary our spiritual Mother.

    Jesus is the new Adam; Mary is the new Eve. Jesus is God. Mary was conceived without sin. Adam and Eve sinned.

    Men are chosen by God to be priests. Men have the desire to conquer. If a heart is to be like the Heart of Christ it must be a humble heart. The Heart of Christ was always humble and loving. The priest's heart must be dependent on the Father as a little child and go to the heart of Mary like a little baby.  

 

    The priest's heart should be most like Christ. Jesus is the King of all hearts, but He expects us to be humble and kind like Him.

    Mary stood beneath the cross. Mary shared in His suffering. Mary watched Jesus die.

    The role of the woman is that of loving and relationship.

    We see Mary with Christ. She says, "Do whatever He tells you."

    Christ said wives should be submissive to their husbands as Christ is to the Church.

    The Church is the bride of Christ. Christ loves His Church. Husbands too must love their wives.

    The role of men and women in today's Church, in today's world are not exactly as Christ intended. He made them male and female. Eve was taken from the side of Adam. The Church was taken from the side of Christ.

    Christ did not intend women to be priests. Christ intended a man to offer the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. But in order to offer a holy sacrifice, a priest should have a heart like Jesus. He should go through the heart of Mary, the sinless one.

    Think of the immense amount of grace, released when the whole Church is one in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and offering sacrifice!

    Think of the immense amount of grace released when all are joined in their every act to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass!

    When hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and are joined to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world, immense grace is released on the earth.

    What a powerful prayer when we are one in our every act with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and one with each other.

    This is our role in the Shepherds of Christ Movement – to spread the good news. Jesus is alive. He is not a "dead object". When we are one in Their Hearts and united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, grace will be released for the renewal of the Church and the world. We pray for the souls of the earth.

    Jesus has given to us the mighty medicine for the sick world – it is the burning love of the Heart of Jesus. It will spread like fire across the earth and many will be enveloped in its flames and hurled into His Heart.

    Priests must put aside willful power and control and go to the heart of Mary. They will be sanctified by the Holy Spirit. Mary will take them to the Heart of Jesus and they will unite most deeply to the Father.

    We must all operate according to the Father's will. The Father intended men to be priests; women to be nuns. Women, in their willfulness have sought roles that do not belong to them. Some men have turned off their hearts and do not even go to their Mother Mary.

    We must all realize we are the little dependent children of the Father. We must do as He intends. Women are different from men. God intended them to be so. Mary is always bringing forth the children in the Church. It is a great honor to be a woman. Mary is a woman!

    It is such an honor for a man to be a priest. Christ has chosen men to be priests. It is the will of the Father.

    Oh, willful world, that disobeys and ignores the Almighty God - that breaks the commandments and refuses to recognize the sin. There are these great sins of disobedience, willfulness, and pride of indulgence.

    Only when people are being fed with the burning love of God will the bloodshed stop in the Church and the world.

Mary's Message Rosary on Tom's Farm

Jesus: Put aside all of the differences that you feel in your heart toward any person. I am Jesus. I am calling you to come to Me with a pure heart. You must let go of any distractions in your heart at this moment. I am filling you with My love. Satan aims to stop the rosary and these messages. He will talk in your heads and distract you. You must focus on your love for Me, for I long to hear the words from your lips, "Jesus, I love You." I love for you to come and to tell Me, "O, how I love You, Jesus. How I love You." Pray for the grace that you will love Me more. I am waiting for you to tell Me of your fervent love. I love you. I love you so much. I am calling out to you. Come to Me and tell Me how you love Me.

R. This is a rosary of love. It is a time that we tell Jesus and Mary how much we love Them and how grateful we are for all the gifts They have given to us. Let us put aside all of the differences in our heart and ask Jesus to fill our hearts with love, that we may march into this world as His mighty soldiers of love, spreading the fire of this love across the earth, watching the darkness turn into light. As night follows day and day follows night, the dark night that is filling this earth will be turned into the light of day as hearts are filled with His love.

Jesus: I am calling you, My beloved ones, My apostles of love, to go across this earth and to carry this light to the world. As you dwell in Our Hearts, you will radiate this light and many will know My love through you. I love you. I want you to love Me with all your heart.

Glorious Mysteries

The Resurrection

1. R. Do we see the withered body of Jesus on the cross, the death of the Almighty God? And Jesus is locked in the tomb for three days. We have been called on a great mission. We have been tried and tested and we have suffered, but Jesus tells us that in the death, there is the resurrection. In the darkest tunnel, there is the brightest light. We must stay focused on Him, for He will not leave us. He is guarding our every breath and our every heartbeat. There are many tunnels of darkness that we have traveled on our journey to spread His love to this world, but through all of these tunnels, there was the light at the end of the tunnel. We see Jesus, His withered body as He hung on the cross, and we see His glorified body as He came from the tomb. The wounds in His hands and His feet bloodied on the cross. The wounds in His hands, in His feet, in His side, glorified wounds as He rose from the dead. This is how our life is, a constant death and resurrection. We struggle, but at the end of the tunnel, He gives to us a deeper sharing in His life. I love You, Jesus. We thank You for the struggle, for it was after the struggle that You gave to us the great gifts of more abundant life, that You revealed to us teachings about Yourself. We love You. We love You. We love You. Glorified Christ, we see You adorned in white and glistening, and we know that if we stay fixed in You that we too will share more abundantly in Your life.

2. R. See Mary as she cries outside of the tomb of her Son, and think of the joy in the heart of Mary when she sees Him after the Resurrection. O heart of Mary that suffered so many sorrows and so many joys, take us into your heart that we may share more in the love of Jesus as you loved Him.

3. Jesus: I impart to you great graces in this rosary that you will come to My Heart, that you will know My love. You must open your heart and let Me fill your heart with My love. Do not focus on any of the distractions that satan has created in your mind, for I am with you in a special way, and I will touch your heart if you put aside those distractions and focus on My love. I am the Almighty God, all powerful, and I am guarding you, My beloved apostles. Each one of you have been called here. This is an important mission for the renewal of the Church and the world. You do not comprehend the immensity of this mission. I beg you at this moment to come to My Heart and let Me bathe you in My love. I love you. I love you. I love you. This is a special night for our love affair, My dear ones. You will remember this night and how I touched your heart in a special way. I am Jesus, the Savior of the world. I love you, My special, chosen ones.

4. R. How are you in this world today? Are you carrying out the messages of Christ's love?

5. R. I look at myself, and I see myself, so many times, so anxious and worried. I want, My beloved Jesus, to be as You want me to be, but I am realizing more and more that this depends on the grace that You give to me and if I cooperate with Your grace. Give me this grace. Dear Holy Spirit, work within the heart of my Mother to mold me more and more into the image and likeness of Jesus, for I know that I am totally dependent on You. Of myself, I fall and I am wretched. I love You, my beloved God. I want to have a soul that is glistening and white and pure, but it is only through Your grace that I will be this way. I give myself to You. I give myself to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, and I ask the Holy Spirit to work within her heart to sanctify me.

6. Jesus: You will be made holy as you surrender, as you give yourselves to Our Hearts. It is in dwelling in Our Hearts that you are sanctified, that you will be the soldiers of love marching on this cold earth. Many hearts in the world today have turned cold. You will march across this earth, and they will be lighted by the fire of My love.

7. R. There will be the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of her Immaculate Heart. How will this be? Will it come in peace, or will it come with much suffering? As the Shepherds of Christ Movement spreads across this earth, as hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the fire of His love will spread across this earth, and Mary promised at Fatima that if hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, if there are a sufficient number of hearts consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will have peace.

8. R. Jesus has risen. He is victorious. This is the good news. The good news is that we have been called here as His apostles, His shepherds in the Shepherds of Christ Movement to carry His messages of love to the world. As hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will proceed in peace.

9. R. O Heart of Jesus, I give You myself.

10. R. The victory has been won. Let us give our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. It is in giving ourselves in love to Jesus and to Mary that we will unite with the Almighty God in such great love.

Song: Come Holy Spirit

Jesus: I am alive. I am alive. I am alive, and I live in your heart. Put aside all of the differences in your heart, and let Me live in this world in you.

 

The Ascension

1. R. These are the Glorious Mysteries. The victory has been won. The Almighty God died on a cross, but He rose on the third day.

2. Hail Mary

3. R. Jesus raised His arms and He ascended into heaven, and a cloud took Him from their sight.

4. Jesus: I no longer walk this earth, My beloved ones. I live in your heart. You must open your heart at this moment and let Me fill you with My love. So as you are in your hearts, you will be in this world. I am alive. I am alive. I am alive, and I live in you. Who are you that the Almighty God lives in you?

5. Jesus: Do you come to Me and unite in the Eucharist? Do you come to Me in prayer and unite in your heart? And then you go to the world, My beloved ones, and you forget about Me. You are to carry My light into the darkness. As you operate in this world today, I want to live in you. You must carry My light into the darkness. Do not be afraid to go into the darkness, but My life must be alive in your hearts. Come to Me and I will fill you with My life. When you talk to your friends, you must be rooted in Me. So many of you forget about Me when you leave the church. I am in your heart at this moment. I am in your heart when  you talk to others. I live in you, and My life flows through you. I want to live in this world. You must dwell in My Heart at every moment. The more you come to Me, the more you pray that you will dwell in My Heart, the more I will give you this grace to constantly dwell in My Heart in all of your activities. I live in this world in you. You must talk to Me all through the day, and tell Me how you love Me. Tell Me of your problems. Tell Me of your thoughts. Your thoughts become one with Me. I live in you. I will light the darkness through you.

6. Jesus: Do you fall? Are you disappointed, My dear ones, when you fail? You must realize that you are imperfect. You must come to the heart of My Mother. Her heart is pure. She will place you in the deepest chamber of My Heart. Tell Me when you have sinned. Tell Me you are sorry. The devil continues to tempt you to feel down-hearted. You must admit your error, and come to the heart of My Mother. It is in admitting your error and coming to her heart, that you will constantly dwell in My Heart. For the devil tells you once you have fallen that you should be down-hearted. Say you are sorry and come to the heart of My Mother. She will take you to My Heart, and you will dwell in her pure heart. There is not a reason why you should stay away from My Heart. If you have sinned, if you have fallen, you must say you are sorry and go to the heart of My Mother.

7. Jesus: I am alive. I am alive. I am alive. I no longer walk this earth; I live in you, and you act as a channel of this life to this world that is hurting and in pain. Come and dwell in My Heart.

8. R. Jesus ascended into heaven, and He left behind the apostles to carry out His work. This day, we are truly called His apostles, His apostles to go into the new era for the renewal of the Church and the world. This is a most important mission that He has called us to. You have been called, and you have been chosen by the Almighty God.

9. R. We see the plan of the Father unfold in the life of Mary. We see the angel appear to Mary, and we see Mary crowned "Queen of Heaven and Earth". This is the same plan. We are the apostles of this era. We have been chosen, and He is calling us to follow Him.

10. Song: 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.

Song: Come Holy Ghost

 

The Descent of the Holy Spirit

1. R. And they were gathered in the upper room, and there was like a gigantic wind and there appeared over their heads parted tongues of fire. And they were filled with the Holy Spirit, and they began to speak in foreign tongues as the Holy Spirit prompted them to speak.

2. R. These were the Apostles that were filled with fear, that locked themselves in the room, Peter, head of the Church, that denied our Lord. These were the Apostles. Jesus shows us how they were and how they fell and how they were weak, but when the Holy Spirit descended upon them, they were filled with the fire of God's love. They were not afraid. They were fearless, and they went forth into the world to preach the Gospel message with fire.

3. Jesus: My love is fire, My beloved ones. My Heart is on-fire for the love of you. Will you open your heart and let Me fill you with this fire. It is a burning fire. It is the biggest fire. No one can put out the fire in the Heart of Jesus. My Heart will forever burn with this fire. What have you to fear when I am the Almighty God, and I give to you My heart filled with this fire that will never end. Will the souls of this earth be comforted by this fire, the fire that you will spread across the earth, or will you see the souls of your brother march into the fires of hell? I am Jesus. I am calling you. I am begging you to answer this call, for every moment in your life is so important, for souls are at stake. This is a most important mission, for you are My modern day apostles that will carry the message of My love into this world. And the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph when hearts are on-fire for the love of God. I love you. I love you. I love you. I am alive, and I live this day.

4. Jesus: Do not be afraid, My beloved apostles, for I am counting on you. I have called you here for I knew you would answer this call. I am giving to you a special grace at this moment. Open your heart and let Me fill you with fire. I want to be one in you, to live in you, to love you. I want you to feel My presence within your heart, the presence of the Almighty God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, that your heart is on-fire for the love of God. It is presence, My beloved ones. You must come to Me. You must sit after Communion and in front of the tabernacle, and I will give you My love. I am Jesus. I am mighty. I am God.

5. Jesus: Why are you afraid? Why are you afraid; I have all the power, My dear ones? I will let you crawl on your stomach to Me, for you will know that you are dependent on Me. It is in this dependency that you will carry this love to the world, for it takes My might working within you. But I have allowed you to suffer to see that you are dependent on Me. I am God. You are My beloved one. I give you all that you need. You must surrender and give yourself to Me.

6. Jesus: It is in your surrender that I unite to you with such love. I give Myself to you. To have this union with Me, you must give yourself to Me. You hold back, My dear one. I love you so. When you are taunted by Satan, do not give into the tauntings in your mind to divide you. This is to stop you in your work. Each day lost, many souls will be lost because of the importance of this mission. I am giving to you abundant graces that you will join in My Heart. In all of your prayers united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, you will help in the work of redemption. You must, when you are taunted by satan, not give into these tauntings. You must focus on My love, and tell Me how you love Me. Satan will work on you. He will work on you and work on you because so many souls will be helped through your efforts. You are helping in the work of redemption. Each day is a large amount of time, and satan knows this. Do not give in to his tauntings to divide you and to get you bowed down. I am with you. I am so close to you. Do you feel My presence? Do you know I am watching and guarding you? You must come to My Heart. You stand on the outside, and you look up at Me. And satan is attempting to stop you.

7. Song: Fill our hearts with Your fire. Fill our hearts with Your fire.

8. R. I had a vision of the biggest fire against the blackest night, and there was a little fireman in front with a little hose, and he could not extinguish the fire in any way. This was the fire of the Heart of Jesus. It is a mighty force, so powerful that it cannot be extinguished by anything that any man can do. He is uniting us to this fire. Why do we fear when we are united in such oneness to the Heart of Jesus?

9. Song: Give me Your Heart, O Jesus, give me a heart like yours. Teach me to love You with this new heart. O, I know little of how to love You. Create in me, O precious Savior, this special heart.

10. R. And the apostles were filled with the fire of God's love. They were not afraid. They were locked in prison, and they proceeded steadfastly ahead. They got out of prison singing. Fill our hearts, O Holy Spirit, with the fire of God's love, that we will not give in to the tauntings of satan, that when we are pressed on that we will know the fire of God's love and proceed steadfastly ahead, for many, many souls are at stake, and You have given to us a great mission.

Jesus: My dear, dear, beloved ones, I have called each one of you in this room. Do not underestimate what you will do when you dwell in My Heart, for I magnify all of your efforts, and the fire of My love will spread across the earth. The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. You must come to My Heart, and you will be lead.

 

The Assumption

1. Jesus: I love you. I love you. I love you, and I give to you, My sweet ones, My Mother.

2. R. We look up at Mary, and we say, "Mary, help us. Mary, we beg you to help us. Mary, it is so hard. We want to do the work of Jesus, and it is so hard." And Mary looked down at me, when she appeared to me in the Sorrowful Mother statue, and she said, "My dear child, come to my heart. You stand outside and you plead and you beg, and the devil is there to attack you. When you come to my heart, to my spiritual womb, I crush the devil with my heel. You must come and dwell in my heart. Come to my womb as an embryo in the womb of their mother, for they are not afraid. They are secure. I am Mary, your Mother, and I am waiting for you to come, for I will protect you against the terrors of the night."

3. R. I go to the heart of Mary as a little baby within the womb of their mother, and I know that I am not afraid of anything, for there is no fear. That is how it is in heaven; there is no fear. There is perfect peace. We are free from all anxieties. As the hot air balloon ascends into the heavens, we are free from all those things on the earth below. This is how it is in the womb of our Mother. She truly protects us. It is a matter of letting go. Will we focus on these things that are holding us bound, or will we realize that the Almighty God is really there in our every breath and heartbeat and trust Him. Even though we do not understand and we want to worry, will we let go and let God do it?

4. Jesus: You must surrender, My beloved ones. You must go to the heart of My Mother, for you will be taunted by the evil one. You will be taunted continuously because of the mission that you have been called to. It is only in her heart that you will be protected from the evil one, for her heel will crush his head.

5. R. There appeared in the sky a woman clothed in the sun, and the moon was under her feet, and there were twelve stars about her head. We are the children of light that dwell within the heart of our Mother. It is in her heart, that we are formed into these children of light, for she is clothed with the sun, and the moon is under her feet. The darkness is beneath her as she crushes the evil one with her heel. And surrounding her head are twelve stars.

Jesus: You are My stars. You are My apostles, My apostles that will light the darkness. As stars, you will shine in the darkest night, for you are the children of light. Come to the womb of My Mother and be filled with her light. She is the Lady of Light. You are the children of light. You will march across this earth as a little army spreading the light of the Almighty God, the fire of My love across the earth. And the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph as you carry out the messages of My love to this world.

6. R. The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign when hearts fervently love Jesus.

7. R. The Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph when we give our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and fervently love these Hearts. It is in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, when people consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, that we will have peace and love on the earth. We have been called to a great mission. It is most important that we see that what we do will help many souls.

8. Mary's Message as Received in the Rosary.

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

9. Song: O Lady of Light, shining so bright, be with us this day, guiding our way, O Lady, O Lady of Light.

Mary: I appear to you as Our Mother of Sorrows.

10. Hail Mary

 

The Coronation

1. R. We see the angel appear to Mary, and we see the plan of the Father unfold in her life as she complied always to the will of the Father. And we see her taken into heaven and crowned "Queen of Heaven and Earth", but do we see the plan as it unfolds in our own life, from the day we were born how we have been guarded and watched, how He has led us to this point, how He has taught us and given us everything that we need to be able to carry out this mission, for many souls are at stake.

2. R. Do you see how you all fit as pieces into the puzzle, how you have been given the talents from the Almighty God to carry out this plan? Each one of you, uniquely special, you will help in the salvation of many souls.

3. Song: From the day you were born

4. R. And the angel appeared to Mary and she was afraid, but he told her, "Do not be afraid, Mary." And he asked her to be the Mother of God, and we see Mary how her heart was pierced with a sword and how she struggled, but we see how she was taken into heaven and crowned "Queen of Heaven and Earth". Look at our life. We see ourselves as little babies coming into this world. We see all the things that we learned and all that we have been taught, but did we see the hand of God throughout our whole life forming us so that we would be able to carry out this great mission that He has called us to today?

Jesus: You are each little pieces to the puzzle, so important and so precious to Me. Together you make up the whole picture. You must surrender. You will not bump heads, My beloved ones. You must do the will of the Father.

5. Hail Mary
6. Hail Mary

7. Revelation 12: 1  Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.

R. We are the stars that will shine in the dark night with the fire of His love. We are the children of light. Mary is bringing us forth in her womb. We are saturated with His life and with His light as we dwell in her womb and sanctified through the Holy Spirit with the fire of God's love. We are children of light for we are saturated with the fire of His love. It is the brightest light. It is a fire that will not be extinguished. It is a fire that will spread across the earth, we are His instruments to do His work, as He operates through us, as we become one in Him.

8. R. And there will be that day when we are united in such union with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that we know the Almighty God. There will be no wanting. There will be no fear and no anxiety. We will be consumed by the love of God. We will be satisfied and full in heaven.

9. Song: May the angels lead you into paradise

Jesus: Know My presence, My dear ones. Sit with Me and focus on this presence, for I am alive, and I am with you. As you feel united with the person next to you; focus on the presence of the Almighty God within your heart. Focus on My presence as you sit in front of the tabernacle. Focus on God, truly present with you in the Holy Eucharist in communion.

10. Jesus: I am a Person. I am alive, and I love you.

 

 

Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

Wisdom 12: 13, 16-19

For there is no god, other than you, who cares for every one,
to whom you have to prove that your sentences have been just.

For your strength is the basis of your saving justice,
and your sovereignty over all makes you lenient to all.
You show your strength when people will not believe in your absolute power,
and you confound any insolence in those who do know it.
But you, controlling your strength, are mild in judgement, and govern us with great lenience,
for you have only to will, and your power is there.

By acting thus, you have taught your people
that the upright must be kindly to his fellows,
and you have given your children the good hope
that after sins you will grant repentance.

 

Psalms 86: 5-6, 9-10, 15-16

Lord, you are kind and forgiving, rich in faithful love for all who call upon you.
Yahweh, hear my prayer, listen to the sound of my pleading.

All nations will come and adore you, Lord, and give glory to your name.
For you are great and do marvellous deeds, you, God, and none other.

But you, Lord, God of tenderness and mercy, slow to anger, rich in faithful love and loyalty,
turn to me and pity me. Give to your servant your strength, to the child of your servant your saving help,

 

Romans 8: 26-27

    And as well as this, the Spirit too comes to help us in our weakness, for, when we do not know how to pray properly, then the Spirit personally makes our petitions for us in groans that cannot be put into words; and he who can see into all hearts knows what the Spirit means because the prayers that the Spirit makes for God’s holy people are always in accordance with the mind of God.

     

Matthew 13: 24-43

He put another parable before them, ‘The kingdom of Heaven may be compared to a man who sowed good seed in his field. While everybody was asleep his enemy came, sowed darnel all among the wheat, and made off. When the new wheat sprouted and ripened, then the darnel appeared as well. The owner’s labourers went to him and said, "Sir, was it not good seed that you sowed in your field? If so, where does the darnel come from?" He said to them, "Some enemy has done this." And the labourers said, "Do you want us to go and weed it out?" But he said, "No, because when you weed out the darnel you might pull up the wheat with it. Let them both grow till the harvest; and at harvest time I shall say to the reapers: First collect the darnel and tie it in bundles to be burnt, then gather the wheat into my barn." ’

He put another parable before them, ‘The kingdom of Heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field. It is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the biggest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air can come and shelter in its branches.’

He told them another parable, ‘The kingdom of Heaven is like the yeast a woman took and mixed in with three measures of flour till it was leavened all through.’

In all this Jesus spoke to the crowds in parables; indeed, he would never speak to them except in parables. This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet:    

I will speak to you in parables,
 unfold what has been hidden
 since the foundation of the world.

Then, leaving the crowds, he went to the house; and his disciples came to him and said, 'Explain to us the parable about the darnel in the field.' He said in reply, ' The sower of the good seed is the Son of man. The field is the world; the good seed is the subjects of the kingdom; the darnel, the subjects of the Evil One; the enemy who sowed it, the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; the reapers are the angels. Well then, just as the darnel is gathered up and burnt in the fire, so it will be at the end of time. The Son of man will send his angels and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of falling and all who do evil, and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth. The the upright will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Anyone who has ears should listen!

 

 

Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

July 17, 2011

INTRODUCTION – (Wisdom 12:13, 16-19; Romans8:26-27; Matthew 13:24-43) The first reading today could be difficult to follow. It is from the book of Wisdom, a book of the bible written about 100 years before Christ. At the time, the Jews were being persecuted for their faith. Many Jews were giving up their belief in God and converting to pagan ways. The author of this book is struggling with the question: “why is God allowing this evil to go on?” His conclusion is that God’s power is not directed toward destroying evil people, but in showing patience, wanting people to repent and allowing them time to do so. This theme prepares us for the gospel, which also deals with the problem of evil.

HOMILY – A man was suffering from a serious attack of appendicitis. He hated going to the doctor, but his wife would not let him suffer. Finally she got him to a doctor who arranged for an operation. Still in pain and still protesting the idea of an operation, he said to the doctor, “When God gave people an appendix, there must have been a reason for putting it in our bodies.” “Oh, there was,” said the doctor. “God gave you that appendix so I could put my children through college.” (from Reader’s Digest: Laughter, the Best Medicine, pg 308) People of faith tend to believe that God has a reason for everything, even if that reason is not obvious.

Sometimes people can’t figure out God’s plans. They give up trying to understand and decide either Goddoesn’t have any plans or God doesn’t have any control or simply they decide there is no God. Most atheists have come to the belief that there is no God because of the problem of evil in the world. Their argument is if there is a good God, then God would not allow all the evil we see. He would stop it, but since there is so much evil, there must not be a good God. Their argument ignores all the good things we see in our world, which far outweigh the evil.

Our first reading from the Book of Wisdom and Jesus’ parable of the wheat and the weeds gives us one way to help us understand the problem of evil. It is that God is patient while waiting and urging the evil doers to change their ways. We’ve all gotten impatient with God at times, thinking God is too patient. In the end, aren’t we grateful that God is patient for we’re all sinners and we have all failed at times. We all try to be the good element (the wheat) in God’s kingdom. Otherwise we wouldn’t be here today. In the course of our lives, if we’re honest, we know we haven’t been perfect all the time. Thankfully, God is patient and God is merciful. God wishes none to perish as he tells us in the parable of the lost sheep. (Mt. 18:14) Today’s parable though seems to tell us clearly that some will not be saved.

Jesus’ parable last week, the three today, and the three next week are about one of his favorite topics – the kingdom of heaven. The kingdom is the “good news” that Jesus preached. John the Baptist preached about it before him. They both preached that it was near. Yet Jesus also implied it’s coming was off in the future (how far off, no one knows) for he taught us to pray for its coming (“thy kingdom come”). Like the seed in the gospel, it has been planted, it has begun, but it has not fully arrived. It comes about slowly, but the harvest will inevitably come. Jesus preached over and over we can choose on which side we will be at the end. If we want to be on his good side, we must live what he has preached. He loves each of us with a love beyond what we can imagine and wants us to share eternal life with him. That’s why he came to us, that’s why he died for us, that’s why he gives himself to us now as we gather in prayer and receive him in the Eucharist.

The end result of Jesus’ work will be huge. That’s the point of the other two parables, the mustard seed (as small as a fly spec on a piece of paper) or a little yeast kneaded into a big batch of flour. Even though Jesus started his community of believers with a handful of people, today there are over two billion people who identify themselves as Christians. Even though not always recognized, God’s kingdom is real. He wants us to be part of it and to share in all its blessings because he loves us. Amen

Sorrowful Mysteries
      

   

The Agony in the Garden

1. Jesus: My dear ones, I am Jesus and you must listen to the words that I am speaking to you, for I am telling you that sufferings at this time are befalling this earth and that Satan is pressing down. He is pressing down so hard on all My beloved, faithful ones! As you see the confusion, the doubt, and the troubles mount in your life at this moment, you will know that Satan is busy and his work is at hand. I am molding you as special soldiers to go into this world to spread My love. How dearly I love each of you. I have called you here to pray this rosary with all your heart. Let your heart be open; let your heart be soft.

Let Me fill you with My love so you feel within you My burning love. Although the earth be shaken and not give its light, you will know that the Almighty God dwells within your heart and that you have nothing to fear, for a graced soul is constantly filled with the presence of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. I am Jesus, your beloved Savior. You do not know the tricks and the handiwork that Satan has planned to stop My faithful ones from spreading My love. It is in focusing on My burning Heart, My Heart of deepest love, that you will withstand all the trials with joy in your heart for, minute by minute, second by second, I am present with you. I am with you at this very moment. You are telling every person you meet about the God who lives within you. Let your hearts be filled with joy for I am truly present and in your midst. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God, in this room with you in the tabernacle, the same as the day I walked the earth and died on the cross. Let your hearts be joyous. Rejoice and give thanks to the Almighty God and praise His name, for you are called, you are favored, you are chosen and you are loved with My deepest, burning love.

2. Jesus: In the garden I knelt with such agony in My Heart, for in My divine knowing I saw before Me all of the events about to happen. I knew of every beating, all of the blood that I would shed, but, more than anything, I knew the rejection and pain in My Heart for the love I had for My beloved ones and how they would reject Me. Look at your world this day. It was in the garden that I suffered for all of the souls that have forgotten God. I cry out to you from the tabernacle to realize My presence with you. You are given great gifts in this room. I want you to unite closely to My Heart, for I am longing and thirsting and waiting for this love affair with you. This rosary will be a time when you will share My deepest love. I am giving you great graces when you come before Me in the tabernacle. I will draw you more and more closely to My Heart. As I suffered in the garden for the souls that beat Me and treated Me with indifference, I was comforted by the acts of love that you are giving to Me this day.

3. R. The eyes of Jesus that cried bloody tears for all of the souls that have forgotten Him! Jesus calls from the tabernacle. Constantly I hear His lamenting cry of how He longs and thirsts to be ever closer to the hearts of men. Many men have turned their backs and do not realize the gentleness and sweetness of His love.

4. Jesus: Love is giving, My dear ones, giving of yourself for the sake of others. Many this day do not know the meaning of love. To love means to give of yourself, to give for the other. Many times it is hard to love and keep giving love for, as you are self-giving, the other continues to be selfish, but I am calling you to love. As you meditate on this passion, focus on My love, given for all, how I was persecuted and suffered and still loved. My way is love. Focus on the meaning of the word love and what it means to you.

5. Jesus: I am vigilant and forever by your side. Unconditionally I love you. No matter what you have done in your life, I love you.

6. Jesus: It is this love that I want you to give to this world. Love is giving.

7. Jesus: My love is gentle. My love is sweet. My love is kind.

8. Jesus: I give to you great graces to help you to love in this world that is hurting and in pain. Satan will cause confusion and division in your lives. He will tempt and tempt you to try to justify your actions. You must be silent many times, and yield and pray, for he is trying to create great division in your lives. You must go to My Heart and take refuge there and focus on My love for you. You are My soldiers that I am sending into this world to spread My love. Will you answer this call? Will you pray for more and more grace to spread this love to a world that is hurting and in pain?

9. Jesus: Think of how it is when you love someone so much and that person walks by and ignores you. Your heart is crying out for union with that person but in his coldness he does not see you and goes his way. My dear ones, his heart is in pain and hurting. I came to show you the way of love. My way is love. When your brother mistreats you, you must realize that within he is hurting and in pain.

10. Jesus: I come to give you peace, peace in your hearts and in your souls. Do not argue with your brothers. When you argue, Satan is there trying to cause division. I am asking you to focus always on the love in My Heart. I am giving you messages of My love. Do you realize the great gifts that you are given, that you are in this room, in this chapel, in the presence of the Almighty God? Focus on the great gifts given to you this day from the Almighty God.

How can you be glum and sad in your ways when you realize that the Almighty God loves you with the deepest love and that He is present. Pray for the grace to see more and more, for many are blind and do not see the great gifts given to them. I am giving to you, My faithful ones, great gifts and the graces to see with much clarity. Open your heart and pray for the grace to love your brothers as I have loved you.

Satan wants you focused on yourself so you will not spread the light to this world that is hurting and in pain. Satan wants souls for hell - souls for hell! Do you realize that? Let go of any kind of selfishness that you feel within yourself and vow to love and to give. Let go, release. If you let go you will feel tremendous freedom and My grace will pour into your heart and you will be filled with My burning love.

     

    

    Jesus Is Scourged at the Pillar

    1. Jesus: You do not know the extent to which Satan will go to keep you focused on yourselves. He is busy and working hard to keep your hearts set on problems. I am Jesus and I am giving you My abundant love. Focus on My love for you.

    2. Jesus: You are My lights that I am sending into this world to spread My love. It is the smile on your face, the look in your eye, the gentleness in your voice, the love that you give to this world in all the little actions that will send My message of love to those you touch. Let go and surrender and pray for grace. Whatever is bothering you, let go and you will feel an outpouring of My grace as it rushes into your heart and you are set free, for minute by minute, second by second, Father, Son and Holy Spirit dwell within you and you are never alone. If the earth is shaken and the sun ceases to shine, you will have this presence of the Almighty God firmly fixed within your heart.

    3. Jesus: They tore My flesh; they beat My body. See My body, dear ones, covered with wounds and bleeding. See the wounds, deep wounds, My flesh torn open by the angry hearts of these men! I came to show you the way. In all of this torture I loved those who tore open My flesh. I came to show you the way to love. I ask you this day to release anything that is hurting inside of you, and you will feel joy in your heart, for to know Me is to have joy in your heart. Amidst all the sufferings that you are going through, keep your focus on Me.

    4. Jesus: Your life is a constant reliving of death-resurrection. My dear ones, as you suffer this day, as you stay rooted in Me, you are brought to deeper and deeper life in Me. You live this paschal mystery of death-resurrection in your daily lives. I came to show you the way. I came to show you the way to love. Love is gentle, love is kind. It is caring for the other. In this world today many hearts have turned cold.

    5. Jesus: In the intensity of My deepest love I want you to feel the vibrancy of this love within your heart. At this moment, focus on the presence of the Father, your loving Father who created you with such preciousness and such beauty. He created you, a very unique part of His plan, a plan for the salvation of the world. There is not another person who is like you, and He dwells within your heart. When you are in the state of grace, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit live within you.

    6. Jesus: Come to the Heart of My Mother. Lay yourself down in her Heart and be cradled by her love. As you dwell in her Heart, so too will you dwell in My Heart. Feel this presence, of dwelling within the Heart of your loving Mother and dwelling within My Heart, on fire for love of you!

    7. Jesus: The Holy Spirit, who proceeds from the mutual love of the Father and of the Son, is present within you, My dear ones. Do you feel His fire and His vibrancy as He leads you more and more on your way, on this journey to eternity?

    8. Jesus: My dear ones, focus now on the presence of the Almighty God within you, of the Father, and His love for you, of the Son and Holy Spirit. Feel the security. You have nothing to fear. The only fear that you should have is for the loss of the life in your soul. Let go, surrender, and feel the freedom of knowing the presence of the Almighty God that lives in a graced soul.

    9. Jesus: Tremendous gifts you are given, My beloved ones. Pray for the grace to realize the gifts that you are given. I stood at the pillar and they tore My flesh. The men, with their angry hearts and ugly faces, with hatred deep-rooted in their hearts. I shed My blood for them. I loved these men, these men that put me to My death. See Me wounded, with deep wounds that ripped My flesh. I am with you at every second. You receive abundant graces for loving when others are cold to you. I am with you every second. Let go and surrender. The time is at hand. Many souls will be lost and I am calling you to go into this world to spread My message of love. I am Jesus. I love you, I love you, I love you. From the tabernacle I call out to you with My Heart, yearning with deepest love, wounded for all the souls that have forgotten and treat Me with such indifference. Think of someone you love walking by and ignoring you. I am ignored and forgotten, treated with disrespect. I am, My dear ones, the Son of God! I wait, I wait, I wait for My beloved ones to come and, from their lips, to whisper their words of love. I am a Person and I am longing and thirsting for your love. Open your hearts and come to Me.

    10. Hail Mary…

      

    

    Jesus is Crowned with Thorns

    1. Jesus: The words that wound! Words from your beloved brother! Do you see My body, covered with wounds, wounds all over My body? When your brother treats you with ugliness, My dear ones, focus on the wounds covering My body and pray for the grace to act as I would want you to act.

    2. Jesus: My dear ones, let your hearts be in joy as you realize My presence continually within you. During all of your sufferings, I am with you.

    3. R. They pounded into His head a sharp crown of piercing thorns. Look at the head of Jesus, punctured by the thorns, the deep holes around His forehead. Focus on these wounds and then think of the little wounds that we receive, the words spoken, the problems that we let press on our minds. Look at Jesus and think of the crown of thorns pressing on His head. He allows us to suffer and in this suffering we are brought to greater and greater life in Him. Do we feel this divine life within us?

    4. R. Look at the crowned head of Jesus and see the blood that comes down His face and goes into His eyes and into His ears. His hands were tied. He could not even try to wipe the blood from His brow. He loved those men that crowned Him with thorns.

    5. Jesus: You will suffer much mental persecution this day, a pressing down of problems and things in your life that will irritate you. You must focus on My love for you. Come and dwell in the Heart of My Mother and, when you dwell in her Heart, you will dwell deeply in My Heart. You must come for our love. Things will be very hard and you will not be able to withstand the trials without Our love.

    6. Jesus: Why do you go it alone when I am here, I am present, and I am outpouring My life, My grace, to you this day. Let go, surrender. When you are backed up against a wall, let go. I am here. Trust. (R. Jesus, I trust in You.) Forever on your lips say, “Dear Sacred Heart of Jesus, I trust in You!”

    7. Jesus: Accept all that is going on in your life this day for I am allowing these trials to strengthen you for the days ahead. The trials you are experiencing will strengthen you.

    8. Jesus: Praise the Almighty God for the great gifts that you are given in these sufferings for you are growing more and more in My life. They pounded into My head a sharp crown of piercing thorns and in all of this I remained at peace, for I knew that it was the Father’s Will. Surrender and let go. I am with you, second by second, minute by minute. I ponder the way of your heart and I am with you.

    9. Jesus: You too can have joy in suffering if you realize the presence of the Almighty God. I am allowing this suffering to help you grow in your graced life.

    10. Jesus: I love you, I love you, I love you. Surrender and let go, for I am truly with you.

         

    

Jesus Carries His Cross Up Calvary

1. Jesus: I ask you to carry the cross that you are given this day and to carry this cross with joy in your heart.

2. Song: See the eyes that look at Mary…

3. R. Jesus’ and Mary’s eyes met on the way to Calvary. Jesus looked into the face of His beloved Mother and He saw the tender love, and the hurt in her face. Mary looked into the eyes of Her Son and she knew of the suffering that He was undergoing. She saw His physical strain. She saw Him fall under the cross. She saw His blood and His wounds. She saw, in the meeting of their eyes, the immense love that He has for us this day.

4. R. It is in Mary that we will reach this deep intimacy with the Heart of Jesus. It is in going to Mary’s Heart, in being rocked in her arms and held close to her breast, that she gives to us the milk of salvation. She gives to us life from her Son Jesus.

5. R. It is in knowing the tender love of our beloved Mother that we will join more deeply to the love of Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is through Mary’s Heart that we are carried to this love of God.

6. Jesus: Release yourself and let go for I am truly present in this room with you at this very moment. Put off all distractions. Focus more and more on My presence with you. All through your day, all through your encounters with others, I want you to be aware of My presence with you, not just when you pray, but all through the day - when you are talking to others, when you are walking, whatever you are doing.

7. R. Be alone in a room and be aware of the immense love within your being of Father, Son and the Holy Spirit. You are touched so deeply within your soul! In this time you sit with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit and you soak in this presence. Time passes by, but you are unaware, for you are lost in this experience with the presence of God. Time stands still. At this point you rise and walk from the room. As you walk from the room, you know that your heart has been touched deeply by the presence of the Almighty God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. You walk into a new world, for you are free of anxiety. You have been touched in such a way that you know that the Almighty God is truly present and living within you. You know that you do not have to fear, for the power and might of God are truly within you. You walk from this room and you carry this special touch of grace with you throughout the day. And, although the earth is shaken and the sun ceases to shine, you are steadfast in His love and His presence.

Jesus: My dear ones, things will begin to happen. So much confusion and doubt now in your life! Sufferings are coming. You must know this presence within you. It is in this presence, with the Almighty God within you, that you will have deep joy within your heart at all times for you know what God is telling you. You know that He is inside of you. You can watch things fall down around you, and people stumble in your midst, but you know that, if you stay steadfastly fixed in the love of Almighty God, you do not fear for He is truly present. You walk from this room and, as you walk, you carry this presence with you. Wherever you go, know that you have been touched by a special grace and that the presence of the Almighty God - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit - truly dwells within you. Your greatest fear is to lose the life of God by sin. Everything else will work according to the plan of the Father if you surrender and carry this presence within you. Do His Will.

8. R. And the earth was shaken, and trees fell, and many catastrophes hit the land, but within their hearts there was an inner peace and tranquillity as they walked from the room, for they were touched by Almighty God. Nothing can shake the presence of God within their hearts.

9. R. And He carried the cross on His back. His body was stooped over, and His face was covered with blood, and His head crowned with thorns, and He could hardly move. He fell three times under the weight of the cross but within His Heart was peace for He knew the love of His Father. He knew the Father’s Will. You, too, will go about your life and have peace and joy within your heart, for you will know that as you walk the Almighty God dwells within you.

Jesus: Be one with Me, My precious ones, one with Me. Unite more and more to Me. Say the Prayer for Union with Me. Every day pray this prayer. Let go, surrender and feel the freedom of knowing the indwelling of the Trinity.

10. Jesus: As you see My face covered with blood, see My body stooped down and the cross on My back. I could hardly move. As you look into My eyes, tender, loving eyes, My dear ones, I want you to hear three words from My lips as I look back at you with My tender loving eyes. I love you!

      

    

Jesus is Crucified and Dies on the Cross

1. R. Jesus was raised high on the cross on Calvary. See Him on the hill and see Mary under the cross and hear the wind blow. See the cross against the darkened sky. This is the greatest sacrifice: the Son of God gave His all to the Father for love of us. His hands were pierced, His feet were pierced, His head was crowned with thorns. He surrendered and gave His life that we might have life forever with Him in heaven.

2. R. As you go to each Mass, unite in oneness with the priest, the priest who is Christ present at the Mass. Unite in this oneness and offer yourself in this act of self-giving to the Father. See Jesus at the Last Supper as He offered the bread and hear His words, “…this is my body” (Mk 14:22), for He knew He would give His flesh and His blood for the love of His precious souls. At Mass we offer ourselves, through and with Christ, to the Father, in the Holy Spirit.

3. R. It is in uniting ourselves to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass being offered all through the world at every moment, offering ourselves with this sacrifice to the Father, that this is our most powerful prayer and that our prayers are magnified to such an extent. All through the day offer, with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the intercession of the Virgin Mary. Offer up, My dear ones, your prayers - for the souls suffering in this world this day, for the souls in Purgatory that need your prayers - all of your petitions. Unite them to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass going on constantly, the greatest prayer that you can give to the Father.

4. Jesus: This is My Body. This is My Blood.

5. Jesus: My dear ones, I give you Myself this day in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and you take this so lightly. As I gave Myself as a sacrifice on Calvary, so I give Myself to you this day. Deeper and deeper My union with you grows as you receive Me in the Eucharist. I am crying out to you to realize the great gifts that you are given, for, when you receive Me in the Eucharist, you become so united in such oneness with Me.

6. Jesus: Prepare yourself for this event. Prepare to receive the Almighty God in deepest union in your heart and pray for the grace that this Mass will be filled with meaning for you and that you will unite in such oneness with Me. You pray at the Offertory to the Father that He accept this Sacrifice. Offer your lives to the Father with Me. Put your life in His hands. Let Him run your life and you will be free and good will happen for you, as you grow more and more in your life and unite more and more closely to Him.

7. Jesus: As you unite in such oneness with Me, you unite also with all those present in Me.

R. Let the world unite in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and all become one in Christ, for we are one body in Him and He is the head.

8. R. Let us all pray in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world and offer ourselves up continually in this Sacrifice with Jesus to the Father. As we all do this there will be unity in this offering, for we are all one in Him. As we unite in Him, we unite in each other.

9. R. Ave Maria! It is through the pierced Heart of Jesus that the sacramental life of the Church was born. Blood and water flowed forth from His Heart - water, the symbol of baptism, our rebirth in Him, and blood, the symbol of the Eucharist, whereby we are fed by his Body. As the life flows through His pierced Heart, so it flows through His beloved  Mother, for her Heart was invisibly pierced with a sword and she is the Mediatrix of all grace. As she nourished the Christ Child within her womb, so she provides the life to us from her Son Jesus through her spiritual womb.

10. R. I see the life flow from His pierced Heart, through the Heart of the Virgin Mary, and into our hearts. We are saturated with this divine life and divine love. It is from His Heart that all mercy and love flow.

Fatima/Clearwater Glass Statues

 

                Jesus told me to put the glass from Mary's
                    image face in the statue.

                I gave a statue to a woman and she
                    did not have to have surgery after 3
                    doctors told her she needed her kidney
                    out because of cancer.

                Jesus said we should pray the Shepherds of Christ
                    prayers before the statue
                    and have the statues in the homes,
                    Churches, etc.

                Others have come running to me after
                    they prayed the prayers (Shepherds of
                    Christ Prayer Manual) before
                    the statue and said
                    crying

                    "Oh Rita, since you gave me the statue
                        with the glass and I prayed the
                        prayers —
                        my son has returned to Church —"

                    Another woman said, "My husband
                        who was in need of prayer is
                        building a grotto for the statue,
                        and he has changed."

                Give these statues for Christmas
                    We will have 10" statues before Christmas.
                    We will have 12" statues before Christmas.
                    We have 18" statues now — home
                        made, hand painted and the
                        crown is handmade —

                It is beautiful and
                    it has the glass from the image
                    in the cloud.

                We have beautiful 27" statues

Yes — All the ends of the earth have seen
the power of God.

 

     God has called us to be united as a family in
the Shepherds of Christ.

     This is a vocation — to pray deeply for
the priests, the Church and the world and
to help support the Newsletter and the
Ministries.

     Remember the image of Our Lady
of Clearwater on the building. We have
very special Fatima statues so you can
have a special place of prayer in your
homes, praying the rosary for your family
and for the priests, the Church and the
world. If you are interested in these
very special Fatima/Clearwater statues
e-mail me with your phone number
and address 
info@sofc.org.

     Those using the special statues
will be united to us in a special way —
We want you to pray the Shepherds of
Christ prayers for the priests, the Church
and the world from your special place
in your home.

     When people have set up a prayer corner/niche
with this statue, Fatima/Clearwater glass, they have
reported that their families have received special
blessings. With this statue it is important to pray
the prayers in the red prayer manual and consecrate
your home and family to the Sacred Heart and
Immaculate Heart.

Call Sheila or Doris about statues or go to China or
Clearwater.

                Message from Jesus!

                R. Jesus appeared in the most
                    beauteous light — radiant
                    faces — I cannot explain —

                Jesus speaks:

                    I wish the Sacred Heart Statues
                with the glass in all homes
                and My Mother's statue with
                glass. She is the Queen of Peace.

                    I am faithful to My Promises.

                    I promise to bring down great
                graces for all praying the
                prayers before the statue —
                Healing graces —
                graces in abundance for families —
                I want this devotion to the Sacred Heart
                and Immaculate Heart in homes.

Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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
$ 15.00 plus postage

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
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

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

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

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #2 - CD. - Suffering: A Source of Life - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. Fr. Carter knew suffering that year. His voice is so powerful as he read each Newsletter from his heart and soul. "Every man has his own share in the redemption. Each one is also called to share in that suffering through which the redemption was accomplished. He is called to share in that suffering through which all human suffering has also been redeemed. In bringing about the redemption through suffering, Christ has also raised human suffering to the level of the redemption. Thus each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ–." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
