Messenger:           Are you doing the job for why Mary
                        appeared to me all those times? Why did
                        our Mother appear to get us to spread the
                        consecration to the Two Hearts to the Hearts
                        of Jesus and Mary.

                            It is our job to do so, Mary and Jesus say
                        to the poor banished children of Eve.

                            We need to see with the wide vision of
                        knowing that the souls of this earth must
                        give themselves to the Hearts of Jesus and
                        Mary.

                            We give our lives for this.

                            Praying for the priests, the Church and the
                        world. Being prayer apostles.

                            The Mass can reach the ends of the earth.
                        We pray deeply uniting every moment to the
                        Masses being celebrated around the world.

                            People all over the world uniting in
                        the Morning Offering. We unite as the body
                        of Christ, the Church
we are united to
                        the Mass
united to all angels and saints and
                        souls in purgatory

                            Praying to the Father united to the
                        Mass - the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally
                        made present in the Mass - offering this
                        sacrifice to the Father in the Holy Spirit.

                            Go to Mass daily Go to Mass and offer
                        sacrifice
united to the Holy Sacrifice
                        of the Mass all day
spread the morning
                        offering, spread the consecration,
                        spread these prayers. Don't be afraid,
                        don't be self-focused. How can we
                        not do our part as members of the body
                        of Christ? Mary appeared in the Americas,
                        Our Lady of Clearwater, Our Lady of
                        Fatima in the Americas
1) she appeared
                        to me in an old seminary, 2) she appeared to us
                        in Clearwater there to tell the people to pray,
                        to spread the consecration to the
                        Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and
                        to unite so deeply to the Mass.

                            Christ through His life, death and resurrection
                        paid the price for our salvation.

                            The Church the fountain of life
                        for the human race, the price of this paid for
                        by our beloved Savior.

                            The Church, the body of Christ, united in deep
                        oneness, giving our lives united to the Mass,
                        as the body of Christ can help to bring down
                        great grace for the human race to be changed,
                        to know Christ, the Savior.

                            We, commissioned in baptism to help
                        so souls will not be lost.

                            As we live our lives united to the Mass
                        at every moment, we as members of the body of Christ
                        help in the release of this grace, Christ shed His blood
                        for, to be released to the world.

                            The Church being the fountain of God's grace
                        the sacraments given as gifts to us in the Church.


                       
                            Every second of our lives, to pray as members
                        of the body of Christ
united so deeply to the Mass
                        going on around the world

                        we who are consecrated to the Sacred Heart and
                        the Immaculate Heart living that life of consecration
                        pray the Morning Offering daily, begging for grace
                        to be released on the whole world.


                        Not to be afraid, but to do
                        the job as baptized Catholics

 

                            Satan wants us focused on ourselves
                        our own little backyard.

    With an awareness of the lack
of the people of the human race
recognizing Christ as Savior,
Redeemer, Almighty God
we reach to these heights of
commitment as living as strong
members of the body of Christ,
as baptized Catholics.

    We cry out at the Lamb of God
at Mass for mercy from our God.
We deeply participate in all Masses
attended not as a passive spectator
but as one deeply united to Christ
all angels and saints, the souls in purgatory,
the universal Church offering sacrifice
to the Father in the Holy Spirit.

    Mary said at Fatima until a sufficient
number of people have consecrated their
hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
there would not be peace in the world.

    The mission of the Shepherds of Christ
at the end of the century begun by Fr. Carter
in 1994 with a message from Jesus
to spread this consecration to the priests,
bishops, etc. through the Priestly Newsletter
and to provide an instrument of instruction
rooted in the scriptures, the encyclicals (documents of the Church)
the sound teaching from the mouth of the Good Shepherd.
That the priest would hear the voice of the Good Shepherd
in this instrument and follow Him.

Good Sound Catholic truths from a holy,
LOVING priest

   

John 10: 11-15

I am the good shepherd:
the good shepherd lays down his life
   for his sheep.
The hired man,
   since he is not the shepherd
and the sheep do not belong to him,
abandons the sheep
as soon as he sees a wolf coming,
   and runs away,
and then the wolf attacks
   and scatters the sheep;
he runs away
   because he is only a hired man
and has no concern for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd;
I know my own
and my own know me,
just as the Father knows me
and I know the Father;
and I lay down my life for my sheep.  

 

May 3, 2006 message continues

Messenger:           Christ the Good Shepherd
                        laid down His life for His flock
                        and the members of the body of Christ
                        the poor banished children of Eve
                        through the commitment at baptism
                        have dedicated their lives in consecration
                        to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
                        living out that baptismal promise.

    Consecration to the Heart of Jesus and Mary
is just a deepening of the baptismal commitment.

    It is with little regard
that we worry for the perishable things of this world
but stay focused on our lives given to us
in preparation for the heavenly banquet,
for the beatific vision.

    The Father allowed Mary to appear
Our Lady of Clearwater, Our Lady of Fatima
in the Americas because the soil was rich in the Americas
filled with people of the human race
being Christian in origin.

    We see that Our Lady appeared at Fatima
and that although Christianity concentrated
around Rome and some of the adjoining areas
there is much work that needs to be done
in spreading the good news of Jesus Christ
the Son of God, Savior and Redeemer.

    To me, God the Father allowed the Virgin Mary
to appear Our Lady of Fatima in the Americas,
in an attempt to cry especially
to the human race of the Americas
to see the Lady clothed with the sun,
the New Eve and to hear her message
to lead the world to her Son Jesus,
Redeemer, Savior
Jesus, Son of God.

    The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign,
the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph,
on this earth. Jesus gave to Fr. Carter
the following message

     

July 31, 1994

Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:

"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.

"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.

"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)

 

May 3, 2006 message continues

Messenger:           ... to spread the consecration
                        to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
                        to the world, through the priests,
                        the fish hook has been put in 189 countries
                        consistently for over a period of 12 years
                        in the Priestly Newsletter.

 

    It is through our priests teaching the people
about the importance of consecration to the
Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart,
the New Adam, the New Eve
united to the Mass that the light of God's grace
can speed swiftly across the earth
transforming stubborn hearts, blind hearts,
self-focused hearts and lead them to ever
deeper levels of holiness and awareness
of the Good Shepherd, the Sacred Heart
of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock.

    We in the Shepherds of Christ
have prayed for the success of this
Priestly Newsletter for 12 years,
as His instrument to help to bring to
completion the mission Mary began at Fatima,
and the conversion that is necessary
especially outside of America to lead the world
to accept the Sacred Heart of Jesus
as Savior and King.

    It is God's plan, that the world will be one,
united in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
loving and worshiping the Sacred Heart of Jesus
as King and Center of their lives, so that they will
recognize the greatness of the Church God has given to us
and that Jesus remains with us truly present
in His Divinity and humanity today in the Eucharist
no less present than when He walked the earth.   
 

                            Jesus is truly present in the
                        Eucharist and the Mass is celebrated
                        all over this earth
we must unite
                        to the Mass and pray
consecrated to
                        the pure Hearts of Jesus and 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.

   

Prayer for Union with Jesus

    Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.

    I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.

    I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.

    When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.

 

 

   

 

Act of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

"Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock, I consecrate myself to Your most Sacred Heart. From Your pierced Heart the Church was born, the Church You have called me, as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, to serve in a most special way. You reveal Your Heart as a symbol of Your love in all its aspects, including Your most special love for me, whom You have chosen as Your companion in this most important work. Help me to always love You in return. Help me to give myself entirely to You. Help me always to pour out my life in love of God and neighbor! Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You!

"Dear Blessed Virgin Mary, I consecrate myself to your maternal and Immaculate Heart, this Heart which is symbol of your life of love. You are the Mother of my Savior. You are also my Mother. You love me with a most special love as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, a movement created by your Son as a powerful instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. In a return of love, I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock."

SHEPHERDS OF CHRIST AND FATIMA

In the Shepherds of Christ, we are a family, joined in one heart in Mary and Jesus' Heart because of our consecration to Their Hearts. We are acting as His Heart beating in this world. We are the modern day apostles joined in one heart.

As we give our hearts to Mary, the Holy Spirit gives us lights to know God and we go forth into the world as lights because we love God so much. We cannot know God and not love Him. So our hearts are filled with the burning love of God.

We Are One in Jesus' Heart

 

Shepherds of Christ Organization

The core leaders contact the coordinators. The coordinators contact the individual apostles. All apostles are working for Jesus. They try to spend one hour a day either in front of the tabernacle or at home alone with Jesus. In this hour, Jesus directs them on their life. They share intimate love with Jesus. He teaches them about Himself and the Father's will for them. It is so important to spend an hour of intimacy everyday with Jesus.

We live by Mary's Peace Plan given at Fatima. It is as follows:

  1. Until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.
  2. Mary has requested all to pray the daily rosary.
  3. We must observe the Five First Saturday devotion:
    - Communion, confession (within 8 days before or after the Saturday), recital of the rosary, meditating for 15 minutes on the mysteries of the rosary. All this is to be done in a spirit of reparation.
  4. We must make reparation to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

His plan centers around this.

We have heads functioning in the individual ministries. Everything we do leads to consecration of hearts. As the apostles press on the three institutions, the Church, family, and school to help spread the consecration, the strayed ones will be led home to His Heart.

Mary said at Fatima, until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.

The Present Condition of the World

Pictorial representation of of Present Condition of the World

Peace will come when hearts are hearts of love. The scales must shift. It will happen through the consecration. Mary's peace plan: until a sufficient amount of people consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace.

The Scale Must Shift

Pictorial representation of shift in Present Condition of the World

The Father looks to the earth; He sees much darkness.

Tree showing much darkness in the world

The Father looks to the earth. There are so many hearts that are not on fire for love of God. The hearts of burning love light up the earth. It is as lights on a Christmas tree. It is sparsely lighted. Therefore, the tree looks dark.

As the Shepherds of Christ Movement spreads (as well as other movements focused on spreading consecration to Their Hearts) the tree is covered with more hearts filled with burning love for Jesus and the earth becomes more lighted.

The tree is covered with hearts consecrated to the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary. The tree is so bright.

Tree showing hearts consecrated to Jesus and Mary

As the Shepherds of Christ apostles spread the consecration to the Church, the family, and the school, the tree is covered with lights and the earth is covered with the fire of His love.

The Father looks to the earth now. He is displeased with the hearts of men. The Father wants us to love God and love each other. He wants us to live according to His will in love.

Mary appears at Fatima. She tells us that we are offending God. She tells us what we must do. Mary's peace plan:

  1. Until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.
  2. Mary has requested all to pray the daily rosary.
  3. We must observe the Five First Saturday devotion:
    - Communion, confession (within 8 days before or after the Saturday), recital of the rosary, meditating for 15 minutes on the mysteries of the rosary. All this is to be done in a spirit of reparation.
  4. We must make reparation to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Mary said there will be an era of peace, in which the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph.

God gave us Mary as our Mother. We are disobeying our Mother's requests given at Fatima. Do you think the Father is pleased with willful children disobeying their mother?

Man disobeys, the devil blocks the Fatima message. World War II happens just as Mary said.

Jesus writes His message of love on our hearts. His life lives in our hearts. The Scriptures and the Mass live in our hearts.

In the Shepherds of Christ Movement, our focus is on the priest.
