December 23, 2004

Jesus speaks:        I came as a baby in your midst —
                                    I am sweet and kind, I love
                                    My beautiful children of
                                    this earth —

                                If I call you to help Me - will you
                                    help Me do what I ask —

Mary speaks:        My babies are suffering — pray
                                    to love — pray to give and
                                    not to want more for yourself
                                    than you gave —

                                Do you not see my children
                                    suffering?

                                I cry to you, I cry to you, I cry
                                    to you to be as God wants.

                                Don't give into satan.
                                Be like Jesus.
                                To His death on the cross
                                    He died for you.

                                He was beaten and He bled —
                                    crowned with thorns
                                    for you —

                                Can you not give to Him - this
                                    Christmas —

                                It is Jesus' birthday —
                                Tell Jesus Happy Birthday
                                    Give Him love by loving
                                        the children of the earth.

Jesus speaks:         I am Jesus the Son of God.

                                My Heart is on fire for My Precious souls —
                               
I am the same God that came to this earth
                                    and died for your sins.

                                I have called those in the Shepherds of Christ
                                    to help Me spread the message of My love
                                    to a world that is bleeding.

                                Little children are being taught so many
                                    evil things.

                                I give to the world a daily message that reaches
                                    some 100,000 people every three days.

                                The very people who are to help and live by this
                                    have fallen off and fail to see the
                                    importance of My daily message and
                                    My prayer services.

                                    My desire for December was for you
                                to pray for the light and love of My Heart to
                                reach My precious souls. The devil has
                                waged a war to try to stop My messenger
                                and prayer services.

                                    I gave to you Fr. Carter and he died —
                                I left the Movement in the hands of
                                My messenger Rita Ring. This is a
                                gift I have given.

                                    More and more people ask what does
                                Shepherds of Christ do for me. You should realize that
                                what I have given you is a special calling
                                to help aid in bringing about the
                                renewal of the Church and the world.

                                    I love you so very much and I have delivered
                                My messages to you in My Rosaries
                                and Prayer
Services for over
                                a decade.

                                    I will continue to deliver My messages
                                through My messenger. When I deliver
                                a message it offends Me when you
                                pay no or little attention to what I
                                tell you.

                                    My messages are given to call you to
                                prayer and unity — the devil is division,
                                selfishness, self-promotion, jealousy
                                and pride —

                                    He begins in little ways to get you to
                                focus more on yourselves and abandon
                                your mission.

                                    I have called you — it is through
                                your love for souls and for Me that you
                                respond. One bad apple can affect a whole
                                bushel.

                                     I give My prayer services
                                    I give you the daily messages —
                                    This Movement is run by Me —
                                    the more you ignore My daily
                                    messages and prayer services or
                                    try to block the great gift of
                                    song and prayer I give you for
                                    now and future generations — the
                                    more you are blocking the gift
                                    I want to give you.

                                Some have abandoned the mission
                                    as living as servants and handmaids.
                                    I ask you to ask yourself as
St. Ignatius
                                    as you look at the crucifix

                                    What have I done for Christ?
                                    What am I doing for Christ?
                                    What ought I to do for Christ?

                                Pray My people on the 1/2 hour —
                                    stop and pray for unity and love —
                                    I am the one delivering the
                                    messages —
                                    You deal with Me —

                                Do you say thanks
   
                                   Do you say thanks for all the Blue
                                    Books and Daily Messages have
                                    done for you?

                                I run the Movement through the daily
                                    messages to not read them is to
                                    skip directions from Me

                                    more and more satan has blocked
                                    the ability of the Daily Messages
                                    to guide the Movement

                                Please thank God for the gifts
                                    given to you

                                    get on your knees and pray for
                                        mercy and be
                                    thankful.

                                    I am the Divine God never in
                                        the history of the world have I
                                        given such gifts and been
                                        so very offended.

                                        I love you Jesus

  
                                    

Excerpt from August 28, 2004

Messenger:    I examine my conscience and tell God I am sorry for:

                            1) When I have failed to recognize
                               the great gifts given to me.

                            2) When I have failed to love
                                others, recognizing
   
                                           I am showing love to
                                God when I love my brothers.

                        3) Failure to love Jesus as I should --
   
                                          show my love to Him, and tell Him I love Him.

                        4) Failure to thank God for His gifts to me.

                        5) Ways of selfishness

                                1) over indulgence,
   
                                                  self-focus not living
   
                                                  according to God's will for me.

                                2) not trusting God as I should

    

  

August 28, 2004 message continues

Messenger:     Jesus is love.

                        He wants us to love Him and love each 
                            other.

                        All through the day we should stop and
   
                         tell Him how much we love Him.

                        I know He is with me now at every
   
                               second, I am never alone, He is
                            attentive to my every need.

                        I help others because I love them.
                            I help others. God wants
   
                               me to see Him in them.

From December 3, 2004

Messenger:     My dear friends

    Today the Feast of St. Xavier,
First Friday, Jesus appeared to me
as the King on His Throne at the
Cathedral where He told me to go
to Church.  


  

    On December 5, 1996 - 
8 years ago Jesus appeared
to me at the point of death His
mouth moving, He was in excruciating
pain, I cried and could hardly stand
it.

From a previous daily message:

I saw Him at the point of death on the cross 
December 5, 1996, after Mary appeared 500 times.

He hung, all battered, greatly weakened. His mouth moved very clearly. It seems that a man in His condition could not move His mouth to that extent.

Later in the rosary that night, He gave messages and said: "No one was listening." 

end of excerpt
  

    Today the Feast of St. Xavier,
First Friday, Jesus appeared to me
as the King on His Throne at the
Cathedral where He told me to go
to Church. 

   He was smiling and His
mouth moved and moved and moved.
He looked happy and the vision was
all aglow. He gave me a message to sit
in the first pew and He appeared
and talked about 20 minutes, He
was smiling.

        May God bless you in this
most beautiful season. 

With lots of love and thanks,

                                Rita
