December 19, 1996 Two Days After Mary Appeared on the Building

     Mary: My dear children, I give to you, my Son, Jesus, born in a stable
     in Bethlehem on Christmas morn. He is the Almighty God, the Light 
     of the World.

     I appear to you, my children, on a (former) bank in Florida. You have
     made money your god! Do you know how cold are your hearts? You 
     turn away from my Son, Jesus, for your money. Your money is your god.

     I am Mary, your Mother. I do not appear as I once appeared to you. I am
     asking you today to circulate my message given on a tape on the feast of 
     Our Lady of Guadalupe, December 12, 1996. Please circulate this tape 
     now. Give it to as many people as you can. I am Mary, your Mother. 
     Please circulate my Rosary Book.

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

     Mary speaks: 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.

Mary's message at Fatima was that

1.) We must pray the rosary.
2.) We should consecrate our hearts to Jesus & Mary.
3.) We must make reparation to the hearts of Jesus and Mary.
4.) We should observe the First Saturday devotion

Message from Mary October 13, 1917:

             I am the Lady of the Rosary. I have come to warn the faithful
             to amend their lives and to ask pardon for their sins. They must
             not offend Our Lord any more, for He is already too grievously 
             offended by the sins of men. People must say the Rosary. 
             Let them continue saying it every day.(17)

August 26, 2001 Jesus speaks:    On October 13, 2001 five years later, I desire all apostles, servants and handmaids to come to China.  (See the August 26, 2001 Daily Message for full information at www.sofc.org or call at the number listed below.) 

Jesus speaks:    I desire you to come on October 12, 2001. I will ask those who are willing to renew their commitment as apostles, servants and handmaids. (We will have Mass at 12:00 noon on Oct. 12, 2001, renewal of commitment after the 6:20 prayers on Oct 12, 2001). ... This 5 year anniversary of My call to the apostles is a special anniversary. Your efforts in the Shepherds of Christ have majorly helped and will continue to help bring to completion the mission Mary began at Fatima.  Mary called on October 13, 1917. I called My apostles October 13, 1996, seventy-nine years later.  THIS IS MY CALL. 

Jesus speaks:  On this day I will ask apostles to come to My Church in China, Indiana, My Eucharistic Center. I ask you to come on the 12th of October.   On this day, October 13, 2001 you must pray at 12:00  noon for grace to be released to reach the far ends of the earth. 

I further ask all who are able to come to Florida December 17, 2001 for the five year anniversary of Mary's appearance on the building. THIS IS A BIG ANNIVERSARY. CIRCULATE A PICTURE WITH INFORMATION RIGHT AWAY, ALSO ABOUT October 13, 2001 and December 17, 2001. I ask from My site in Florida that people pray honoring and praising God and helping to make reparation to God for the offenses against God. Great grace will be given. 

I further ask all who can come to China September 14 for a special Mass to come.  Pray as a body for the Nursing home ministry and the priests, the Church and the world. I want you to pray as never before united in Mass as a body. The usual prayers of September 13 will be conducted beginning at 12:00 noon China time. You must pray fervently all afternoon as is the regular practice on the 13ths - pray for grace for the priests, the Church and the world.

Full Excerpt from the September 6, 2001 message

Messenger:            We were all united by live

                           broadcast on the 5th Praying and singing.

                           All were united in Florida, in

                               Morrow, in China,

                               in Iowa, in Toledo and

                               in Sidney, in Pennsylvania, and

                               the priest that helps us.

                               It was wonderful.

                           We prayed so fervently for the

                               priests, the Church and the

                               world and to tell God we are

                               sorry for the offenses

                               against Him.

                           We begged and pleaded for

                               grace and mercy for the

                               world.

                            We asked God to help us, to

                                give us grace that

                                we can see clearly to

                                be the way He wants

                                us to be.

                            It was so powerful.

                            Mary and Jesus appeared but

                                I did not think it was

                                as gold as usual, that is

                                how it looked to me.

                            We sang a lot.

                            We had a beautiful love

                                circle and

                                opened the

                                bookstore and showed

                                the nursing home

                                video afterwards.

                            I signed books for those

                                there.

                            Here are some pictures from

                                September 5, 2001 during

                                the rosary.

Jesus speaks:        You must pray for your donors.

                        I appeared and my mother appeared

                            for the whole world.

                        The apparition is not appreciated.

                        The fact you cannot even make

                            the rent payment for the

                            building is proof.

                        So much money in the world and the

                            state of Florida.

                        Look at your news on television.

                            BUILDING FOR 5 YEARS AND
                            YOU DO NOT EVEN TAKE
                            NOTICE.


Jesus speaks:     It is not the responsibility of 100
                            people to support such a vision.

                         It is a gift from God.

                         This shows you the focus of men
                            and your news.

                         Your eyes are blind.

                         I ask today September 6, 2001 to

                             see Our images and to help

                             do what We have asked you to do.

                         These messages are important.

                         You have ignored Me.

                         THE PRAYER CARDS, Prayer for Union
                            with Jesus, Prayer Before the Holy

                            morning offering, Shepherds of Christ
                            Prayer manuals, Holy Spirit Novena book,
                            rosary meditations are gifts from God.

Messenger:        Jesus also said "All materials

                             used for the school rosary program

                             printed by B&M have helped the

                             school children."

Jesus speaks:  
  The Priestly Newsletter is a gift from God.

                       Because of these prayers your world

                             is a better place.

                       If B&M closes and the printing stops -

                             your world will be affected.

                      Again I repeat, these revelations and

                            materials are for the world.

                      Mary appears the Lady clothed in gold

                            for the world.

                      Very, very few are helping to do what I ask.

                      My movement is to help the priests, the
                            Church and the world, it is a gift.

                      Because of My movement, the world is a
                            better place.

                      You will feel the effects if the printing stops.

                      I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus, I speak here.

                            Do you see the gift your God has given in my

Luke 1: 46-56

The Magnificat

  And Mary said:

    My soul proclaims
        the greatness of the Lord
    and my spirit rejoices
        in God my Saviour;
    because he has looked upon
        the humiliation of his servant.
    Yes, from now onwards
        all generations will call me blessed,
    for the Almighty
        has done great things for me.
    Holy is his name,
    and his faithful love extends age after age
        to those who fear him.
    He has used the power of his arm,
    he has routed the arrogant of heart.
    He has pulled down princes
        from their thrones
            and raised high the lowly.
    He has filled the starving with good things,
        sent the rich away empty.
    He has come to the help
        of Israel his servant,
            mindful of his faithful love
    —according to the promise
        he made to our ancestors—
    of his mercy to Abraham
        and to his descendants for ever.

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."

~ October 13, 1994 ~ 

77th Anniversary of Mary's appearance at Fatima

The Birth of the Full Ministries
of the Shepherds of Christ

    "I wish to share with you part of a message which Jesus gave us on October 13, 1994. The message tells us about the expansion of the Shepherds of Christ movement:

    'My beloved priest-companion, today I come to you with another mission. I am asking you to establish Shepherds of Christ Ministries. At My request you have already begun the priestly newsletter, "Shepherds of Christ", and the prayer chapters, Shepherds of Christ Associates...

    'I am giving you this message on this day, the 77th Anniversary of the Great Apparition at Fatima, because of the close connection between the Shepherds of Christ movement and the Fatima message. The Fatima message is centered in devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart, especially in consecration to Our Hearts. Shepherds of Christ Ministries is also centered in devotion to Our Hearts. I will use Shepherds of Christ Ministries as a great instrument in helping to bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. When this occurs, My Church and the world will be experiencing the great era of peace promised by My Mother at Fatima.

    'Today, then, October 13, 1994, the 77th Anniversary of the Great Apparition at Fatima, marks the birth of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I pour forth the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock.'

    "Jesus has told us that Shepherds of Christ Ministries includes: the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, Shepherds of Christ Associates prayer chapters, various publications, including books, whatever else Our Lord directs us to undertake.

    "As members of Shepherds of Christ Associates, you are an extremely important part of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. You have given great joy to the Heart of Jesus by responding to His invitation to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. As He draws you closer to His Heart and to His Mother's Heart as Associates members, He will fill you with an ever-increasing experience of His love, peace, and joy."

Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus

My dear fellow Associate Members,

    Jesus is calling special apostles to join a new division of the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Here is a message from Jesus given to Father Carter:

    My beloved priest-companion, I am requesting that a new prayer movement be started under the direction of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I am asking for volunteers who are willing to pray before the Blessed Sacrament for one hour, twice-weekly. Members of the Shepherds of Christ prayer chapters, as well as others, are to be invited to join this movement.

    These apostles are to pray for the intentions I am giving you. For part of the hour they are to use the prayers of the Shepherds of Christ Associates Handbook. They may spend the rest of the hour as they so choose.

    I will use this new prayer movement within My Shepherds of Christ Ministries in a powerful way to help in the renewal of My Church and the world. I will give great graces to those who join this movement. The name, Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, is to be given to this movement.

    I am inviting My beloved Rita Ring to be coordinator for this activity.

    I pour out the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock.

    These apostles are to pray for the intentions given below. For part of the hour, you must use the prayers in the Shepherds of Christ Associates Handbook.  You may spend the rest of the hour as you so choose.
    This prayer movement within the Shepherds of Christ Ministries is a powerful way to help in the renewal of the Church and the world. The name, Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, has been given to this movement.
    This is indeed a special calling for you to unite in one heart with His Eucharistic Heart and pray for the following intentions:
  1. For the spread of the devotion to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary culminating in the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of the Immaculate Heart.
  2. For the Pope.

  9. For all souls in purgatory.
    Jesus wants so much for us to come and be with Him. He is no less present in the tabernacle than the day He walked the earth. He will listen to our heartfelt prayers as Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. His Heart beats in deepest love for us. How He loves His beloved priests and religious. He wants us to come to the Blessed Sacrament and pray to Him for them. Our prayers are especially powerful when we are before the tabernacle.
    If you feel Jesus is calling you to be an apostle of His Eucharistic Heart, please complete the membership form. Please circulate this brochure and the sign-up forms. This is a call to priests, sisters, and laity, including children. The Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus do not have to be a member of the Shepherds of Christ chapters. There is such power in His Eucharistic Heart. Let us join one another and answer this call today. Adoration should begin as soon as possible.
    Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus will receive the Shepherds of Christ Newsletter. It is very important to send in the membership form as soon as possible so we can send you the newsletter and any new information about the Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus.

Mary speaks:      I want the Bishops to consecrate their dioceses
                                to my Immaculate Heart. My Son Jesus
                                wants the Bishops to consecrate their dioceses
                                to His Sacred Heart.

Jesus speaks:     It is My desire that the Bishops of America and
                                the Bishops of the world entrust their dioceses 
                                to My Most Sacred Heart and the Heart of My
                                Mother Mary. I desire they encourage
                                the devotion to Our two Hearts in all
                                dioceses and all Churches. I desire
                                this with all My Heart. I am the Sacred
                                Heart of Jesus, you will not have peace
                                in the world until more listen to Me
                                and comply to these wishes. I want to 
                                be the King and Center of all Hearts.

                            I desire the picture of My Heart and My Mother's
                                heart and or statues be placed in the churches.
                                When a Church is consecrated/enthroned to
                                Our two Hearts they will grow in greater
                                holiness.
                                I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
                                I will Reign on the earth.

                            Why are you so resistant to listen to Me
                                and follow My requests.

                            How do I deliver a message to you?

                            You will not even take notice of the
                                sign given on the building in
                                Florida.

                            The Fatima message must be observed.

                            You must make reparation to Our
                                two Hearts.

                            I give to you the Shepherds of Christ Prayers.

                            I directed Father Carter how to compile
                                these prayers for the priests, and the
                                renewal of the Church and the world.

                            Here is a message I sent on December 20, 1993.
                            I came knocking, with the following writing.
                                    "Angels will read the Message"

                                I came in light.

                                I deliver this message, but you do not hear
                                    Me.

 


  

Excerpt from December 20, 1993

Angels Will Read the Message

God's Blue Book I Cover

December 20, 1993 - 2:40 a.m.

Jesus speaks:  Who will read the message? Angels will read the message. I will be by their side. I want the messages out. I want them out, I tell you. I want My people to hear all I am telling you. I want, not a few, but all to hear these words. They are private revelations given by Me to My people. The souls are, oh, so hungry for this one. They need to get these messages.

    I am one crying in the desert. Make ready the way of the Lord. Prepare ye a path for the Master. He comes as a child in a stable. His people are asleep. Where are they and what are they doing with their busy lives? The angels will read the messages. They will rock the heavens and all will know My love and My might. From the housetops, shout this. Proclaim, "The day of the Lord is approaching. Make ready a path for Him." Will you comply with this demand to deliver a message to My people?

    Time, child, is so short. You must ready all with My words of love. They are half asleep and dazed. They walk this earth with blinders on their eyes. My day will rock them off their rockers and they will know it is I with Whom they deal. No mistake will be made as to what is happening. All will see My power and My might. From the heavens shall come a sign and all will know from whence it comes. And the days that follow will be days to prepare men's hearts for My coming. I will not come unannounced. I will come with My power and My might and you will know what you will behold. Men will turn their hearts to Me with these messages. Get them out, I tell you, for their need is very great. I am patient and yet I am demanding. Ready yourself for this day of the Lord. I come as a baby into your midst, the angels sing, the choirs of heaven rejoice and you will know soon that I am very close to you all. Indeed you will know!

    What awaits those in their feeble hearts! They run after such useless things when I, God, am talking in these letters. They think their world is their end. What an awakening they will have-a wide awakening!

    I knock to make ready for My coming. You hear Me knock on your door in the night. Make ready this path so My people will read these letters of love. I am mighty and worthy of such praise. My people must realize My love in My intense might. What sign do you need? Do you think these messages were for your ears alone? Such power and wisdom in Rita's purse? This is not the idea. They are for all! My ease goes with you in all your undertakings to get these messages out.

    Slow, too slow, I tell you. Shout My message from the housetops, that I am Lord and I am coming in your midst as a baby, but, with such might! My time is at hand. You tarry too long, My little ones. Time you do not have. This world is crazy! People are so busy at the malls. Oh, what foolish ones. I come as a baby into your midst. This is My birthday and whom do you worship? You worship idols! It is all such a sick world. Make ready My path, My little ones. Time is so short and you must not tarry any longer for into your hands I place My words for the world. They are mighty, little ones. Read them! What do you do with these words? Do you want proof? Look at Me hanging on the cross. It is out of this love of you I died a brutal death! Do you think I would not go to this extent to save the souls of My loved ones? Why would I come to this earth, give My life for all My beautiful creatures, and then, at this stage of the game, not send some mighty medicine to cure My sick little ones? You possess the mighty medicine. I mixed it with such love and I hand-deliver each message to shake My people to My love. The heavens will rock and the Son of Man will appear on a cloud and the glory of the Lord will be shown on high!

    Get busy, you little people. The angels declare My words are given here. This is My gift to My people-distinct, clear letters proclaiming My love. Are you listening? Do you think I would not try everything to save My beloved ones?

    Oh, I will go to any extent to save these little ones, so ornery and so stupid in their ways, so sinful in this evil world, but so precious to Me. I will come in My glory and I want every last soul.

    I am God. Why would I not speak to you? I wait for you. I wait, I wait, but you are all so blind and dense. What you do is so silly. Your ways here have become sick and your hearts have become hard. But shout it from the housetops! I loved you to My death! I love you all in your sickness. I want you united under the mantle of My mother, praying and honoring God.

    America, turn yourselves around before it is too late. Come and heed My harkening. Come, come, My children. Time is so short and a lot of mending must be done in your hearts. You have hardened them and now they must come back to life. Only I can give you this life in your hearts.

    Heed My words here. I am gentle and kind in heart. My heart is a heart of love. I have hand-delivered these messages to My people and you are My delivery boys. Get them going, little ones. You tarry too much.

    My gift to My people is My love this Christmas. I am showering all at this Center with grace this season. The devotion there pleases Me, but more must flock and they will be changed from hardened hearts to hearts for God. I am God, little ones. I came and I died a brutal death. I am calling to you all to deliver this now. Make this your top priority so they will hear My message of love and know the love I have for them. Do not tarry. Do this today, little ones.

Jesus speaks:      I ask you to help Me get My Newsletter II Book
                                to the 75,000 priests before Christmas, 
                                I desire all efforts be made to include a 
                                prayer manual.

                            My desire for the 4 Newsletters after Fr. Carter's
                                death this year 2001 have not been met.

                                Newsletter Book II
) and all involved. Pray
                                fervently, pray hourly if possible.

Messenger:         Jesus also indicated at some point He desired the
                                Priestly Newsletter Book II sent to all Jesuits
                                and all Bishops in the world. 

Jesus speaks:      This mailing could majorly help to change the
                           face of the earth and help bring to completion
                           the mission Mary began at Fatima.

                           You do not hear the voice of the Good Shepherd
                                in My writings and works.

                           You are not open.

                           You will not even look at Mary on the building.

Luke 6: 12-19

The choice of the Twelve

Now it happened in those days that he went onto the mountain to pray; and he spent the whole night in prayer to God. When day came he summoned his disciples and picked out twelve of them; he called them ‘apostles’: Simon whom he called Peter, and his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Simon called the Zealot, Judas son of James, and Judas Iscariot who became a traitor.

The crowds follow Jesus

He then came down with them and stopped at a piece of level ground where there was a large gathering of his disciples, with a great crowd of people from all parts of Judaea and Jerusalem and the coastal region of Tyre and Sidon who had come to hear him and to be cured of their diseases. People tormented by unclean spirits were also cured, and everyone in the crowd was trying to touch him because power came out of him that cured them all.

Excerpt from Response in Christ by Father Edward Carter, S.J.


       e) Relationship with Members of the Church
There is but one true Church of Christ. Yet this one Church has three different states of existence. There is the pilgrim Church, the Church of this world, composed of members who have received the grace of Christ and strive for its development. They have not yet obtained the goal of their efforts, as have the members of the heavenly Church, who enjoy God in eternal happiness. The Church suffering is an intermediate state of existence necessary for those who had not achieved the required purification as members of the pilgrim Church. Although there are these three phases of the Church's existence, there is a profound union existing between all the members. All these members possess the same basic life of grace in Christ, and this common life establishes the most intimate bonds of love. In our preceding chapter, we discussed the pilgrim Church. Let us now consider the Church suffering and the heavenly Church.

   The members of the Church suffering are those who have departed from this life in an incomplete state of Christian development. Their development is incomplete in the sense that grace has not fully taken possession of them, and, as a result, they are yet closed in upon themselves to a greater or lesser degree. They as yet cannot open themselves out in complete love to the Triune God in the beatific vision. They must undergo a further purification, a purification which could have been achieved upon earth with merit. Now the purification must be achieved with no merit attached. The pain of this purification is mixed with the certain expectation of achieving the vision of God. We can hasten the advent of this vision for this people by the offering of prayers and other good works. Scripture itself refers to our action on behalf of those in purgatory in Chapter 12 of the Second Book of Maccabees beginning with verse 38.

   The members of the heavenly Church are those in whom the life of grace has taken full possession and has reached its completion in the life of glory. Faith now is unnecessary, as the light of glory gives the human intellect a new strength and capacity for seeing God face-to-face. While the Christian was a wayfarer, he received the imprint of the indwelling Trinity as he shared in God's own life. Now in heaven that grace-life and possession of God reaches its completion—the absolute completion is not achieved, however, until the resurrection of the body. The divine persons give Themselves to the beatified in a profound union far surpassing that of the indwelling of the Trinity experienced here below.

   This life of heaven is still the Christ-life, for just as we possess a share in Trinitarian life here below as mediated by Christ, and exercise this grace-life as structured by Him, so also in heaven is the mediation of Christ present. In the words of Rahner, "One always sees the Father through Jesus. Just as immediately as this, for the directness of the vision of God is not a denial of the mediatorship of Christ as man."13 And not only does the humanity of Christ unite the blessed to God, but also, in some way, to the whole of creation. This is merely a completion of what is begun here below, namely, the union with Christ in His humanity establishing the Christian in a special relationship with God, with other men, and with the whole of creation. We have a glimpse, therefore, of the fullness of life which members of the heavenly Church possess.

   The heavenly Church, as St. Thomas says, is the true Church.14 The Church of this earth and the Church of purgatory are, each in its own way, reaching out in loving hope for the heavenly Jerusalem. Vatican II puts it very simply: "The Church, to which we are called in Christ Jesus, and in which we acquire sanctity through the grace of God, will attain her full perfection only in the glory of heaven."15

   The members of the heavenly Church can help us in living our life of grace until we too share its fullness with them. Their power of intercession on our behalf is but another ramification of the communal aspect of Christianity. We are meant to help others grow in Christ. We, in turn, are intended by God to receive aid from others—yes, from members of the heavenly Church, as well as from those with whom we dwell here below.

   Not only can we be aided by the saints' intercession, but the example of the canonized saints can also be of great value to us. They have concretely proved that full holiness is possible. Such an inspiration is of real worth when we are tempted to think that Christian sanctity in its higher degrees is impossible of attainment. Moreover, the canonized saints, in their diversity, teach us that there are many authentic versions of Christian holiness. They can be innovators in showing us that there are numerous possibilities in assimilating the mystery of Christ, although the basic assimilation remains the same for all Christians of all times. In the opinion of Rahner this is one of the chief roles the canonized saints exert in the life of the Church.16
