Sorrowful Mysteries

The Agony in the Garden

  1. R. Always in compliance to the Father’s will, we see this as we mediate on all the mysteries of the rosary, how Jesus and Mary always complied to the will of the Father. To have peace and joy in our lives, we must always comply to the will of the Father. We see Jesus in the garden, His face covered with a bloody sweat, and at any moment He could have stopped everything. He could have withdrawn. He, the Almighty God, all powerful and almighty, about to undergo the cruel Passion and His death, and He sees this before Him. He sees all the sins of men and all the men that would reject the grace that He merited for them, but what did He think of? He saw us. He saw us here this night praying, and it filled His Heart with immense joy. It gave Him so much pleasure in His Heart to know that we would love Him so much, for He is a Person and He longs to be loved by His beloved creatures. We do not comprehend and we do not understand how much Jesus is waiting and longing for our love. Let us, in this rosary, give our love to Him by giving our complete attention to Him and listening to the words that He speaks to our hearts. Let us hear Jesus as He outpours His love to us and teaches us about Himself.
     

  2. R. How many times have we felt like we have gone through this Passion too in our lives? Have we felt buckled over and filled with pain? It is so hard sometimes. We are trying so hard in this world, that does not recognize God as it should, to please the Almighty God, and it seems like we are pressed on and pressed on, and we say, "God please help us. Take this cross away." But He allows us to continue to suffer, and we do not understand. It is in the death that there is the resurrection. Constantly in our lives, we live this Paschal mystery of death - resurrection. Let us mediate on the mysteries of this rosary, His suffering and His death, and let us think all through these mysteries how He rose victorious on the third day, how it is through His death that we share in His Divine life. Let us think of how it is to know God and to love Him. It is because of Jesus, because of His Passion and His death, that we are able to partake in His Divine life. Through our little deaths, there is always the resurrection. As we go through our lives, we grow more and more in this life in Him. Mary, the Mother of our Christ-life, is there with us, is leading us deeply into the Heart of her Son.
     

  3. R. Treasure beyond all treasures is the Heart of Jesus. The Heart filled with endless, Divine love, the Heart from which the life of God flows. They pierced His Heart with a lance and what came forth was Blood and water. Water - a symbol of Baptism whereby we partake in His Divine life. Blood - a symbol of the Eucharist by which we are fed with the Bread of Life. Oh God, how we love You! Let our hearts be focused only on You in this rosary. As we see Your face covered with Blood, as we see the Blood drop to the ground, as we know the immense mental agony that You suffered in the garden, the suffering to know how You would be rejected and forgotten by those that You gave Your life for, may we know a little bit, just a little, of how much You truly love us. We love You. We love You. We love You, Jesus Christ the Savior of the world.
     

  4. 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."
    Jesus:  I have come to set brother against brother, mother against son. My beloved ones, I am Jesus Christ the Son of God. I give you My life, and I give you My love. You must focus totally on My love for you. You must come to Me and give Me your love and give love to one another. This is the commandment that I give to you - that you love God with your whole heart, your whole soul, and your whole being, and you love one another as you love yourselves.
     
     

  5. Jesus: Mental torment, My beloved ones, how I suffered mental torment in the garden, but My thoughts were comforted by the love that you give to Me this evening. Put aside all of the thoughts in your heart that do not pertain to Me, and focus totally on your beloved Savior. I gave My life for you. Will you give Me your mind and your heart at this moment, and let Me fill you with My grace that you will share more and more in My life? I am giving to you a great treasure at this moment. You must open your heart and let Me pour My grace into your heart and into your soul. I am Jesus. I love you with the most burning love you do not even comprehend. Your souls are thirsty for the love of God. You were created for this love. Nothing on this earth will satisfy this craving, this appetite within you except My love. You must put aside all of the thoughts in your mind, in your heart and focus on Me, for I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I am Jesus the Son of God, your Savior, your Redeemer, your King, your Lover. Open your heart, and I will fill your heart with Divine love. I love you. I love you. I love you, My sweet one.
     

  6. Song: You Are Mine
     

  7. Jesus:  The world is asleep, My beloved ones. They are walking in darkness. They are covered with a cloud. Their eyes do not see, and their ears do not hear. I have lifted the veil for you, My chosen ones, and I am giving to you a great grace that you will see with eyes unveiled and hear with ears that are open to My Word. You have been called, and you have been chosen. You will walk into the dark night as lights shining, and My light will radiate from your heart and from your soul. Come to Me and let Me bathe you in My love, in My most Sacred Heart.
     

  8. Jesus:  I am alive. I am alive. I am alive and I live in your heart, and I live in this world as you walk the streets. It is through you that My grace will touch many hearts. You must surrender totally and give yourself to Me. Give yourself. Give your heart to My Mother for she will turn your cold heart into a warm heart that will unite with My Heart. I love you, My dear one. I am telling you the secrets of My Heart, that you will know the true treasure, the treasure that this world has cast aside and is suffering for its ignorance and neglect. See with eyes unveiled for I am giving to you a great grace given to My dearest saints. You are My apostles that will carry the flag across this earth, that will carry My flag, full of love, to the world that is hurting and in pain.
     

  9. R. And He saw it all. He saw the whole Passion before Him. He knew vividly every pain. He knew every beating, every thorn prick. He knew all that He would suffer. He knew the pain on the cross and three agonizing hours that He would suffer. He knew all the souls that would go to hell despite His suffering. But despite all of this, He gave Himself. He gave Himself for me and He gave Himself for you, knowing full well everything that He would suffer, because of His great love for us, that we would be saved, that we would share in His Divine life, that we might be with Him forever and ever in heaven.
     

  10. R. Oh Heart of Jesus, Treasure beyond all treasures, give me the grace to dwell forever in Your Heart.
    Song: Oh Burning Heart, Oh Love divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the Host, I know You’re here to love and care for me.

   

The Scourging at the Pillar

  1. R. They took Him away and they tied Him to the pillar, and they began to beat Him. They took turns beating our beloved Savior. Stand there. Let us picture ourselves tied to the pillar. Picture us.
    Jesus: How is the love in your heart, My beloved ones? Would you stand at the pillar and allow men that you loved to tear your flesh, knowing full well that you could stop it at any moment? I stood at the pillar and they tore My flesh, and My blood fell to the ground. I withstood this for your sins. Do you know how I suffered for your sins, the sins that you commit towards your brothers, when you talk about your brothers, those that I love. My way is love. You are My apostles of love. You must be holy. Your hearts must be filled with holiness. You must go into the world and to always show others how to love. You cannot talk about others. You must have hearts filled with love. Only in love will your heart unite to My Heart. People are watching you. You are the stars against the darkest night. Will you shine or will you be dull? In order to shine, your heart must be likened to My Heart. Give Me your heart, My dear ones, and I will turn your heart to a heart of love.
     

  2. Jesus: How you insist and insist to go your way and try and try and try. Do you know, My dear ones, that I am with you at every moment? You must admit your dependency on Me. You must surrender and say, "Jesus, I am totally dependent on You. I want to be loving, but I fall. I am a little baby. I need You to help me to love like You. I cannot do it on my own." Go to confession, My dear ones, and tell the priest of the times when you talked about your beloved brother, for I stood at the pillar and I was beaten for your sins, and I was beaten for your brother that I love. I am teaching you in the Shepherds of Christ Movement to be of one mind and one heart. Your heart will unite in the deepest union with My Heart, but you must give way. You must not let thoughts of bitterness and hatred toward one another creep into your heart. I am allowing you to suffer, and I am allowing you to watch yourself fall, for you will come crawling on your knees and beg Me, "to help me." "Help me, God," you will say. "Help me. I want to love like You, but I cannot do it myself."
     

  3. Jesus: I was beaten for you, My beloved ones. You do not know how sins against your brother offend Me and hurt Me. How I was beaten for those words that you speak in hatred toward one another. You are the stars that will shine against the darkness. You are My apostles, but your hearts must be pure. You must come to Me for you cannot do this on your own. I will give you the grace to love, to love as I loved, as I love each and every soul. You are dependent on Me, My dear ones. Watch yourself fall on your face and know that you need Me to help you.
     

  4. Jesus: Hearts that are haughty and prideful cannot unite to My Heart. There are many this day that are in control, that continue to control with proud hearts. I give to many authority and power. It is to be used only according to the Father's will. Your hearts must be soft and gentle as My Heart. You must not let power and control go to your head, My dear one. You have authority only as the Father gives you authority.
     
    This is from the reading today:
        "Son of man, say to the ruler of Tyre, 
        ‘The Lord Yahweh says this:
        Because your heart has grown proud,
        you thought: I am a god;
        I am divinely enthroned
        far out to sea.
        Though you are human, not divine,
        you have allowed yourself
        to think like God.
        So, you are wiser than Daniel;
        no sage as wise as you!
        By your wisdom and your intelligence
        you have made yourself a fortune,
        you have put gold and silver
        into your treasuries.
        Such is your skill in trading,
        your fortune has continued to increase,
        and your fortune has made your heart
        grow prouder.

        ‘And so, the Lord Yahweh says this:
        Since you have allowed yourself
        to think like God,
        very well, I am going to bring foreigners
        against you,
        the most barbarous of the nations.
        They will draw sword against
        your fine wisdom,
        they will desecrate your splendour,
        they will throw you down into the grave
        and you will die a violent death
        far out to sea.
        Will you still think: I am a god,
        when your slaughterers confront you?
        But you will be human, not divine,
        in the clutches of the ones
        who strike you down!
        You will die like the uncircumcised at the hand of foreigners.
        ‘For I have spoken-declares the Lord Yahweh.
    ’" (Ezk. 28:2-10)
     

  5. Jesus: I am gentle, and I am kind of Heart. I have made men the head of their homes. I have given to the priests authority and a great gift to be called a priest and to offer sacrifice. I have bestowed on men great honor, but within the heart of every man that is given power must be the heart of gentleness and love. I stood at the pillar, and I was beaten and My skin was torn because of the haughty hearts, because of the pride, because of men that wanted their will and not the will of the Father. Everything that you do must be in accordance with the Father’s will. I showed you the way. I stood at the pillar and was beaten because it was the Father's will. You must strive always to do the will of the Father with love. Love is your primary purpose, to love God above all things and love one another as you love yourselves.
     

  6. Jesus: You have been called here, and I am teaching you in each rosary and in God’s Blue Book. My beloved ones, you have been called to live these messages, and you have answered this call. I look at you in this room, and I know how each one of you have studied and how you live these messages. I am giving to you this grace, and I am showing you, My dear ones, I am showing you things that I showed only to the greatest saints. Praise and thank your God for the gifts that you are given.
     

  7. Jesus: Read My letters of love to you. You will carry these messages to the world. You will be the light that shines in the darkest night. I stood at the pillar, and I was beaten. I was beaten because of the haughty hearts. Your heart must be likened to Mine. You are My apostles that will carry this message into this world. You do not comprehend this great mission. Each one of you have been called here. You must respond to the call for I am asking you to help with the souls. What you do will help many souls. I stood at the pillar, and they tore My flesh. I love each soul with the most burning love that I allowed them to put Me to death. Will you go into this world? Will you walk fearlessly ahead despite the persecution and the verbal battering that you receive? Will you say to this world, “This is the Almighty God. He is alive this day, and He loves you. He loves you. He loves you. Come. Come to Him, and He will give you what your heart desires.”
      

  8. 1 Corinthians 12:12-26
         "For as with the human body which is a unity although it has many parts-all the parts of the body, though many, still making up one single body-so it is with Christ. We were baptized into one body in a single Spirit, Jews as well as Greeks, slaves as well as free men, and we were all given the same Spirit to drink. And indeed the body consists not of one member but of many. If the foot were to say, 'I am not a hand and so I do not belong to the body,' it does not belong to the body any the less for that. Or if the ear were to say, 'I am not an eye, and so I do not belong to the body,' that would not stop its belonging to the body. If the whole body were just an eye, how would there be any hearing? If the whole body were hearing, how would there be any smelling?
         As it is, God has put all the separate parts into the body as he chose. If they were all the same part, how could it be a body? As it is, the parts are many but the body is one. The eye cannot say to the hand, 'I have no need of you,' and nor can the head say to the feet, 'I have no need of you.'
         What is more, it is precisely the parts of the body that seem to be the weakest which are the indispensable ones. It is the parts of the body which we consider least dignified that we surround with the greatest dignity; and our less presentable parts are given greater presentability which our presentable parts do not need. God has composed the body so that greater dignity is given to the parts which were without it, and so that there may not be disagreements inside the body but each part may be equally concerned for all the others. If one part is hurt, all the parts share its pain. And if one part is honoured, all the parts share its joy."
       

  9. Jesus: You cannot be divided with any person and have peace in your heart. Your hearts must be hearts of love. You must give up any bitterness and division in your hearts towards any person, for I am God and in My Heart there is not division. I am calling you My apostles of love, My little army that I have called and brought to this room this evening. You must be as the brightest stars shining against the darkened night, for I am Jesus; I am the Almighty God, and I have called you to carry the messages of My burning love to this world, to the priests, to the sisters, to all those that are hurting and in pain. As I stood at the pillar and I was whipped for the sins of men, I knew that you would answer this call. And it was joy to My Heart as the blood ran down My body. My Heart was comforted, because of the work and love that you would give to others because of the souls that you would help. You are My stars that will shine in the darkest night. You have been called. You have been chosen, and I have given to you such grace that you can carry out this mission. You can say 'no' to Me, My dear ones, but it was there when I was scourged that your 'yes' comforted Me. In My greatest agony, I saw you as I hung on the cross. My body withered and in pain, I saw you, and I saw the love that would go forth from your heart into this world. I love you with such love. I gave Myself for love of you and for all souls. Will you help your brothers to know My love?
      

  10. Song: One Bread, One Body
    Song: Only This I Want
    Jesus: There will be peace and joy in your hearts when you comply always to the Father's will. The Father has a plan for you. I am the Way. I am the Truth. I am the Life. You have been called. You have been chosen. Will you answer My call, My apostles of love?

      

The Crowning with Thorns

  1. R. Think of the minds of men, and think of how Satan presses on the minds of men. Think of how our thoughts can be so influenced by the evil one, how we can worry about what other people think, how we can think others are talking about us, how we can make ourselves miserable by giving in to our thoughts. Jesus showed us His head crowned with thorns. How He suffered such pain to His head, yet we cannot discipline our thoughts. Let us pray for the grace to ask God to help us to keep our thoughts always thoughts of love, of harmony, of oneness with one another.
     

  2. Jesus: You must not give in to the seeds of division that Satan plants in your minds. You must say, My loved ones, “I love that person. I love that person.” But do you know that you cannot do this on your own? Do you know that you depend totally on Me?  I have allowed you to fall on your face many times. You, My dear ones, you need My grace. You are dependent on My grace. If you are holy, it is because of the grace that I am giving to you. It is not because of your own volition. I am Jesus. You are dependent on Me, My loved ones. You must come to Me and ask for the grace to love. I want to love through you in this world.
     

  3. R. We must come to the Father as the little, dependent child. We must tell Him of our love and tell Him of our needs.
     

  4. Jesus: Picture yourself in a chair surrounded by those people that you love the most. Do you see all the people you love? And then watch, My beloved ones, as those you love the most come to you and pound a crown of thorns in your head, and you watch the blood from your head fall on your body.
     

  5. Jesus: How many times have you crowned Me with thorns by your thoughts of hatred and anger toward one another. I suffered immense pain because of the thoughts of men. You are My chosen ones. Pray that you do not wound My Heart with thoughts of hatred and bitterness for I love you. I love you so much, and it wounds My Heart when you hate one another.
     

  6. Jesus: You must model your lives after My Mother. You must look at My Mother, her heart pure and sinless. It is only in purity that you will unite to Our Hearts.
     

  7. Jesus:  Go to the heart of My Mother, and ask the Holy Spirit to sanctify you that you may unite in the deepest union in My Heart.
     

  8. Jesus:  You do not know the hatred and the bitterness, the thoughts in the hearts and minds of some men. How I suffered so much pain to My head for the ugly, horrible thoughts of mankind. God is offended by the acts of man this day. Help make reparation to Him for your sins and the sins of mankind. Reparation given to My Heart delights Me, My dear ones. God is offended by sinful men.
     

  9. Song: "Oh Burning Heart, Oh Love divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the Host, I know You’re here to love and care for me."
    R. Jesus is alive. Jesus is alive. Jesus is alive, and He lives within our hearts.
      

  10. Song: Give me Your Heart Oh Jesus, Give me a heart like Yours. Teach me to love You with this new heart, Oh I know little of how to love You. Create in me Oh precious Saviour this special heart.
    R. He loves you. He loves you. He loves you.

        

The Carrying of the Cross

  1. Jesus:  Carry your cross, My beloved ones. I watch you as you walk, and I place that cross on your back, but I know that it is in carrying the cross that you will be given much life. You want to put the cross aside, but it is in carrying the cross that you will grow more and more in your knowledge and love of Me.
     

  2. Jesus:  I watch you carry the cross, and I watch you move it from shoulder to shoulder. I watch as it slips down your arm and you fall to the ground, and I am so close to you. I stand beside you and I say, “Carry it a little while longer. Carry it a little longer.” My dear one, for you do not know the great gift that you will receive. At the end of the darkest tunnel, there is the brightest light. I am Jesus. I give to you according to your needs. I give to you suffering. You must learn to endure the suffering and realize that it is a gift in which you will grow more and more in your life in Me.
     

  3. R. My Jesus, I carried the cross and carried the cross and the tunnel was so dark and so black, and I felt as if I would never smile again. But I remember those times, and it was so hard. It was so hard when I felt as if I was dying on the cross with You, and then the light began to steal across the sky, and the glory was beyond all suffering. For after the death, there is the resurrection, our lives, a constant dying and rising in Him.
     

  4. R. Help me realize that we are given suffering and that we must endure the suffering until He lifts the suffering.
    Jesus:  When you are backed up against a wall, My beloved ones, you must surrender and accept all that I give to you and give yourselves to Me, for I am breathing on your neck when you are wrapped up in pain. I am looking in your eyes when you are down under the cross. I am holding your hand when you think I am so far away, and I know all things. I know of the great gifts that will come when you endure the sufferings that I am giving to you. There is always the life after the death when you stay rooted in Me. Carry the cross on your back, and remember that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
      

  5. R. It’s a rocky road that He trod on the way to Calvary, and He knew that it would end in His death, but He knew of the Resurrection. He carried the cross and it bumped along, and He saw into the eyes of His Mother that comforted Him.
    Jesus:  Look into My eyes, My beloved ones. Be wrapped in the embrace of the love of Our Two Hearts. In the suffering, you must go to Our Hearts and know that you are never alone and I will never abandon you. I am almighty, all powerful. I am God, and I am with you to the end of time.
     

  6. R. And there will come the day when we are lifted into heaven, and we will be wrapped in the Divine embrace, that we will know the embrace of the Almighty God. We must carry our crosses on our backs. Each day, carry the cross and share in the Resurrection. Our lives are this dying and rising, each day.
     

  7. Jesus:  The world tells you that you should not suffer, but I show you the way. Look at Me, My face covered with blood, My head crowned with thorns, the cross bearing down on My back. I could barely move and I fell to the ground, but on the third day I rose victorious.
     

  8. R. Thump. Thump. Thump. Hear the cross of Jesus. See the stress on His face. See the Blood as it pours from His Body. See Him fall under the cross. Do you hear the crowd? Do you hear them holler at our beloved Savior? He withstood all of this in silence. Mary, knowing that He was the Almighty God, stood by, her Heart torn within her chest watching her Son suffer. And They are appearing to us this day. They are appearing to tell us of Their love. This is love that Jesus carried the cross, that He gave His Body and His Blood, that He wants the world to know that He is alive and that He loves and wants to be loved by man.
     

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

  10. Hail Mary

   

The Crucifixion

  1. R. The greatest Sacrifice of all, the Son of God comes to this earth, and He gives Himself as a sacrifice for love of us that we will be saved.
     

  2. R. The Sacrifice is sacramentally made present at every Mass, the priest offers this Sacrifice. We must unite in this Sacrifice and give ourselves. As Jesus sacrificed Himself on the cross, we sacrifice ourselves in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in union with Him. It is in uniting in this oneness with Christ that the grace will be released on this earth and that many souls will be saved. This is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. We are not there as spectators. We are there to offer sacrifice, to give ourselves. It is when we give ourselves that grace is outpoured on the earth.
     

  3. R. We must pray for holy priests, that priests will be holy in their hearts and unite in such oneness with the Heart of Jesus, that as they celebrate the Mass and offer sacrifice, that they too offer themselves as a sacrifice in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The Sacrifice of Calvary is sacramentally made present at every Mass.
     

  4. R. The grace that was merited by Christ through His life and death on the cross is released in abundant proportion in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The more we unite in this oneness with the Mass, the more this grace is released. Our world is in a desperate state. We must unite in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in our morning offering, every morning, uniting each one of our activities with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
     

  5. R. Our actions are magnified, and immense amount of grace is released on us and on this world when we unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in all of our actions.
     

  6. R. All of our actions, when performed in accordance with the Father’s will with love, are heroic actions when we unite them to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, for grace rains on the earth and the people on this earth. Many will be saved as we unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in all of our actions and as we become one in Their Hearts. This is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the fountain of God’s life outpoured on the earth. Jesus gave Himself. "This is My Body. This is My Blood." Let us tap into this fountain of His life at every second as we unite every action to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
      

  7. R. And they pierced His Heart, and the sacramental life of the Church was born.
     

  8. R. His life is a fountain of life pouring out on the earth from the side of Christ.
     

  9. Jesus: My beloved ones, everything is a grace. You must pray for grace. You unite every morning, in the morning offering, to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, for My grace will spill upon this earth and it will be lighted with the brightest light. You are My fervent souls that I have called and that I am joining to My Heart. In this oneness, the grace will be released on the earth, and many souls will be helped. Do not underestimate the value of every action you perform when you unite to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in the morning offering. I am Jesus. I came to this world the Savior. Bring Me souls! Bring Me souls, My beloved ones! You are My apostles. You will help many souls through your efforts that you make to circulate these messages and rosaries in this world. Many will know the fire of My burning love. Do not underestimate the importance of your life. You will struggle, and you will suffer. Look at Me as I hung on the cross. I show you the way. I show you My way. But in the death there is the resurrection. Give Me yourself. Give Me yourself. I want your love. I want you to talk to Me all through the day. When you are worried and troubled, I want you to say in your heart, “Jesus, I love You. Jesus, I love You.” Put aside the thoughts that Satan is planting in your heads, the seeds of doubt and division, and say, “Jesus, I love You.” Take that moment to spend time with Me, loving Me, and I will strengthen you. I want your love. I want you to long and to thirst for My love. I want you to tell Me you love Me. I am a Person. I want you to love Me. I gave My life for you. Will you give your heart to Me?
      

  10. R. It is in complying to the will of the Father that we will have peace and joy in our lives. We see Jesus in the arms of His Mother. Jesus complied to the will of His Father to His death, and Mary complied to the will of the Father. She did not shout all through the Passion and holler, "This is God! What is the matter with you?" She was silent and she accepted the suffering, for she knew the Father had a plan, and she knew that she must endure the suffering. She knew that Jesus must die. She complied always to the will of the Father. Jesus complied to the will of the Father to His death. He shows us the way. His way is suffering and life. The world shows us another way. They show us a way that leads our hearts to hunger and to pain. His way is the way to joy, peace, and love.

    Jesus: I love you. I love you. I love you. I am Jesus. I give Myself to you. It is in giving yourself to Me that we will unite. I give Myself to you in love, but to become one with Me, you must give yourself to Me. You will share in My Divine love. Nothing on the face of this earth can compare to this love relationship with My Divine Heart. Love is relationship. I give Myself to you. You will share in accordance to how much of yourself you give to Me. I want your all. I promise you peace, love, and joy in your heart when you give yourself to Me. I love you.  To My death, I loved you.

    Jesus: I would die for you this day. Will you give Me your heart?

Fr. Carter and Your Writings are One

Mary: My dear child, on the 13th of September I give you this message. I am the Sorrowful Mother. I am guarding you and protecting you. I am operating through John to help bring my messages to this world. My Son's messages will be lived. You are being guarded by St. Michael.

    You and Fr. Carter must remain in one heart. There can never be division between you. You must work to settle any differences lovingly. Do not leave one another divided, always leave in love. You are a major part of the completion of the Fatima message. John is the President. All leaders must spend one hour before the Tabernacle each day and live the messages found in God's Blue Books and the Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Study all books of the Bible and the New Testament. As apostles, your directions are given in the books following the Gospels. I am Mary. It is in one mind and one heart you will proceed across the earth. You must heed the messages of My Son. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. His hand is struck with power. Your hearts must be gentle as a little lamb but you must be slick to recognize the cunningness of the devil. The devil wants to divide you and Fr. Carter. You will undergo horrendous testing. Only in love will you withstand the torment. Never leave one another divided, always leave in love.

    You are channels of the love flowing through Our Hearts to the world. A city divided against itself will not stand. You and Fr. Carter are my pillars of light to this world.

    Darkness has overtaken much of the earth. As the Movement spreads in these writings (Fr. Carter and Rita) across the earth, the fire of His love will cover the earth as a mighty furnace. The grace will glisten in the hearts of many. The souls will be transformed to the greatest light. Light will shine from the eyes and faces of those consecrated to Our Hearts.

October 13th, 1996 is a special day for the world.

    I love you, my chosen apostles. I am your Mother Mary. Remain in one heart for you are beginning a rough road of testing. You will be taunted and jostled, and satan will attempt to pry you apart at the seams. Do not give in. Our love flows through your heart to the world. Remain as one rooted in the deepest, holy love.

    I love you. I am Mary, your Mother.

Know Love - Operate From Love!

R. When I am in love, I am in my heart. Jesus wants us to love each other deeply – then we are always responding in love. The devil has tried by every means to tempt people away from being loving and in their heart.

    When I am divided with any man, it blocks our heartfelt love. Jesus wants us to deeply love one another. The devil has waged a war to keep us from our hearts.

    We do not allow ourselves to give ourselves to one another as we should. We put up walls many times that keep us from getting close.   

    When I am loving others, I am loving Jesus. (This is presupposing I am loving according to God's will.) When you are in love, you are in your heart.

    Satan tries to make division, and he wants us to hate. The devil wants us to go away from our hearts. Satan gets us focused on the misdeeds of others to take us from our hearts.

Notes:
Love - see through the eyes of Jesus.
Love is a power that gives energy.
The devil wants to get us focused on ourselves.
Be grateful, thank God - do we see the brightness of the sky, the smile - we are to be like Christ.
Be obedient to God's will.
We need to help one another.
"He ain't heavy, he's my brother." We must love our brothers as He loves us.
God is love!!

Ephesians 5: 21-27

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.
 

R. You can do it - believe in Jesus. Praise, Praise, Praise, God.
Eyes sparkle - talk by facial expressions. Doing something right; look for things done right.
How can I improve? Be grateful.
There is insecurity in Marriages, among Nuns in Convents - out on their own - many have gone to the world - many are independent. We were created to love each other.

St. Joseph loved Mary so deeply.
Jesus loved Mary Magdalene and John.
We cannot be afraid to love each other.


1 John 4: 16

God is love, and whoever remains in love remains in God and God in him.


R. Be of the heart. Love with your heart. When you are in love, everything is beautiful.
God is love - Jesus shows us His Sacred Heart.
God created so much beauty.
Everyone wants to be loved and needed - everyone wants to be important.

   

September 14, 1996 - At Mass

At Mass Our Heart Beat for Love of Thee

R. I saw the Father as in gold above the altar at the beginning of the Mass, and the Holy Spirit under Him. I see Jesus in Fr. Carter. I was so aware of the Father and the grace being poured down from Him. I heard "This is My Beloved Son in whom I am well pleased."

    Realize how important Mass is in the work of redemption. We are members of the mystical body of Christ. I wanted to unite in such oneness to the Father and beg Him for grace for souls.

    I just wanted, with my whole being, to beg for grace and cried for the need of this grace. I envision souls in hell, souls on the edge of death and from the visions and revelations realizing the immense amount of grace that could be spilled out on the earth, I wanted it so much – knowing how so much could be outpoured and wanting to be one in the Mass. Knowing how the Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present.

    Oh, my heart begs the Father for grace and mercy through His Son, in the Holy Spirit in the Mass. I realized how close Jesus is to Fr. Carter and felt this oneness with Jesus and His holy priest, Fr. Carter.

    At the Lamb of God, I begged God for mercy. I wanted to receive My God. I wanted to love Him with the greatest love, love for the Father, love for the Holy Spirit, and to love God so much!

    I love You, Jesus, thank You for this great gift of Yourself - and the Mass! I love You. Rita.

    Do the writings take you to your heart or your head?

Jesus: I come to bring My love to this world. I beg you to circulate these rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

    My dear Fr. Carter, please discern the rosary of September 10th and circulate it to the Chapters on October 13th.

Notes:
    We must love, then we act lovingly.
    I love my child, I love my friend, I love Mary - her heart is gentle and loving and pure. She is forever with me, as a mother is with their child.
    If I realized this love in our hearts, of Mary for us as a loving Mother, I feel warm inside.
    If I am connected to my Father as a little child, I feel loved in my heart.
    To be in love is to act in love. We must act in love. I feel loving when I am connected to love.
    Jesus shows us the deep love between Him and His Mother. He wants His Heart venerated next to her heart today.
    To act loving our hearts must be rooted in love.
    A drop of heartfelt love.
    I show you hearts – His Heart was formed in her womb.
    Live the mysteries of the rosary. How am I being formed into the image of Christ?

 

September 14, 1996

God is the Source

Jesus: Oh, heartfelt love, you are blind and go to the world - the world is cold.

R. A little baby, tender, loving, nurtured, no fear in the womb, not a care, life flows.

I go to the womb of my Mother. The Spirit is working in me, transforming me, filling me with the fire of God's love. As an embryo is filled with love, the Spirit moves in the heart of Mary.

    Love beyond all love - Divine Love - permeating my soul, forming my heart, to be more like Christ.

    Oh, tender heart of Mary, sanctuary of the Holy Spirit, wrap me in your womb in tender, burning love.

    Oh, I love God. I love this revelation. I love.

    So many today are starving. How can someone give when they are starving? Feed the hungry souls so they will be satisfied and then they will give of themselves.

    Their hearts are shriveled and hurting. They are under-nourished. They are wanting to be fed. They are hanging on as on their last leg.

    God fill us with Your life. How can a branch live when it is cut off from the vine?

    Many today are cut off from the source of life and are shriveling and dying.

    I smell roses and gardenias - they are both here!

For Father Carter:

Jesus: You are to lead priests to My Sacred Heart. I have chosen you to write My Newsletter, Rita to write the letters from My Heart. I call you to teach them about heartfelt love. I want heartfelt love. Go to the heart of My Mother.

R. How tender is the Heart of Christ, how blest are we that He is revealing to us the secrets of His Heart!

    The tender Heart of Jesus is living in us today. He has a Divine Heart. We seek to know His love.

    They show us Their Hearts. We are so blind. We keep forgetting love is in the heart. He is love. Friendship with God – Love.

1 Corinthians 13: 1

Though I command languages both human and angelic — if I speak without love, I am no more than a gong booming or a cymbal clashing.

R. Go to the heart of Mary. Mary carried Him in her womb, Mary carried Jesus in her arms, Mary laid Him down and bathed Him. Mary saw Him on the way to Calvary, Mary held Him under the cross, Mary was separated from Him when He was twelve. All these memories in the heart of Mary.

 

September 19, 1996

How Do We Treat Each Other?

R. Love: God is love. Our all consuming desire is to be the Apostles of the Sacred Heart to spread His love to this world. I must then, if I am to be an apostle of love, act lovingly.

    I look at myself. I saw my flaws and how I grumble and complain and talk about others, thinking myself superior and holy. If I am holy it is because of God's grace. I see my faults. I see how I am not like Him many times.

    How does God look at a person? How would God talk to a person? We see the love He showed to Mary Magdalene and how He rejoices when a sinner returns to Him. His way is the way of love.

    How do we treat each other? Are we loving to one another? Are we giving each other the love of Jesus? Are we strengthened because we are touching each other with tender, gentle acts of love?

    How we judge each other as we look at them. How gentle Christ was to Mary Magdalene.

    Our all consuming desire must be to be one in Him, that as we live, He lives in us. He loves through us. We see how far we are from being like the Master. We see our faults. He gives us His Mother. He gives us her pure and sinless heart.

    We cannot unite deeply to Him in our sinfulness. We go through the pure and sinless heart of Mary, we want to unite deeply to Him.

    Come to me, oh my God and fill me with Your grace. Fill my heart with Your love.

    We go through motions that we call love. We speak with tongues that are not tongues of love.

    He lives in us in this world, this day. I want Him living in me, and operating out of me, and loving in me today.

 

Personal Notes:

December 17, 1991: Saw His Sacred Heart after Holy Communion at All Saints Church. It was like a furnace, like someone putting fire in a furnace. We had a little pot-bellied stove and it reminded me of that.

September 5, 1994: I heard, "You are as you are" in a dream - that was a strong message.

(excerpt)
On September 5, 1994 - I had a dream of my head going into Fr. Carter's and he was in an open door.

Our writings merged until his death. He said the Blue Books were as much his as mine and he discerned them 4 times and all daily messages to his death - they were that important to him.

He said the Priestly Newsletter Book II was ours because it reflected him — the voice of the Good Shepherd and the writings I received.

R. September 5, 1995: Saw the mist on the video of the Sorrowful Mother. End of daily rosaries.

Mass Book started.

December 15, 1995 - John's birthday.

March 26, 1994: Talked to Fr. Carter at the Faber House for several hours.

March 26, 1996 - Great vision: Fire of His love went on Internet, Tom Arlinghaus' birthday.

August 8th - My birthday

May 31st - Joe's birthday - Birthday of Shepherds of Christ

March 13th - Mike's birthday

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 27, 1996

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.

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

"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
