"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."

SHEPHERDS OF CHRIST AND FATIMA

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

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

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

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

1. Until a sufficient number of people have consecrated their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.

2. Mary has requested all to pray the daily rosary.

3. We must observe the Five First Saturday devotion:
   - Communion, confession (within 8 days before or after the Saturday), recital of the rosary, meditating for 15 minutes on the mysteries of the rosary. All this is to be done in a spirit of reparation.

4. We must make reparation to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

His plan centers around this.

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

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

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

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

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

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

THE GLORIOUS MYSTERIES

The Resurrection

1. Jesus: Open wide your hearts, My beloved ones, for I am with you in a special way on this day. There are many changes that are occurring in your lives. You must let go and surrender for I am separating the sheep from the goats and you will be a strong body. You will be a body joined in one mind and one heart to help carry the light into the darkness. Do not be afraid for I am here and My Mother is here in a special way. I will guard you.
Song: "I will be with you."

2. Messenger:  And so where does our journey take us. This is the Shepherds of Christ Movement. It is not yet three years old and it has spread internationally all over this world. We have received many messages from Jesus, from Mary, and from the Father telling us how we could advance in spreading the love of the Sacred Heart and helping to bring about His reign and the triumph of her Immaculate Heart. We have been given so many messages that will help renew the Church and the world. We have been given prayers in the prayer manual, that will help to turn the priests hearts to holy priests. And this is our mission, our mission is to help renew the Church and the world and bring about the completion of the Fatima message. The Fatima mission has been oppressed for 80 years. It has been blocked over and over again in the Church and in the world. Do we think that Mary will go away? Do we think that the Father will change His plan because of willful men? Is this not the reason why we are in this state to begin with? For it is that Eve ate of the fruit and Adam and Eve sinned, an act of the will in which they did their will over God's. And it is that the Father is well pleased when we obey His will. How is our world today? Is our world aligned with the will of the Father or are we a willful race? I would like to read to you the message of the Father given on January the 18th. It is most important that you also read this message and the message of the Father from January 11th and study these messages. We must see things as from the Father's perspective as from the I Am. We must see them in their whole view. We are creatures that are walking the earth but we must see that sinful man has disobeyed the Father and that we must make reparation to Him for our sins. Adam and Eve sinned. God came into this world to save us from our sins. Mary appears at Fatima and she tells us, "You must, my beloved children, come through my Immaculate Heart. You must make reparation. You must tell God that you are sorry for your sins," and we ignore her. But she promises to us that there will be a great reign in which the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign, in which men will know God in this great light similar to before when Adam and Eve had the light, that there will be this great era of intimacy with God, and man will know God. But why, why, should God lead us in to the great era of peace and love? Have we shown God that we recognize the fact that we are sinners, that we are sorry for our sins, that we come to Him as little dependent children, that we love God with our whole heart, our whole soul and our whole being, and that we want to make reparation for our sins? Or do we come with haughty hearts, with willfulness and we do not listen to the Father? Why should we go into this new era? The new era will come about. It will come about peaceably if we do what they have told us to do. The Father is telling us now very strongly exactly what we must do. We must begin these prayer chapters to help to lead the priests to holiness, to help renew the Church and the world, to help to bring about consecration in the hearts of the priests, of the sisters, of the people. The Father is telling us what to do. He gave great gifts at Falmouth. This is what He said, "I gave great gifts to you allowing Mary to appear and because of willful men they did not cherish these gifts and so I used Falmouth as an example of the chastisements to come if you do not obey. And what am I telling you to do, My children? I am telling you to begin these prayer chapters. I am telling you to pray as my Son Jesus has instructed you to pray. I am telling you to spread this priestly newsletter that it will greatly renew the Church and the world." The devil will try to do everything he can to stop us. But the Father has told us over and over again that we must begin these prayer chapters, that we must pray these prayers fervently ourselves, that there will be this era of great peace and love. In December, if you study the all night message, (December 29, 1996) if you study the messages of Jesus and Mary, you see the intensity as it builds. Mary says, "I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any more." October the 5th, "His hand is struck with power." Jesus appears on the cross on December the 5th after Mary appeared for two years and four months and His mouth is moving and He says, later, that no one is listening to Him. Then I received strong messages December the 19th, December the 22nd. December the 19th Mary says that she appears on a building in Florida because we have made money our God. She also says that the time is nigh." And Jesus gives to me a strong message for the first time and He said, "There will be chastisements and the moon will turn to blood and I am telling you what you must do. You must go to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. The grace is outpoured in the Mass." On December the 22nd, He gives another message where He speaks about chastisements. All of these messages in the sequence is very important to the Father's plan. They are in the Apostles Manual. The Father begins to speak in January and He says, "You have ignored my Son and now you will ignore Me?" And so I received the strongest messages all through December and February to where I had knots in my stomach and He kept talking about Falmouth and He kept saying how we did not cherish the gifts that He had given. And then there was the flood. And after this the Father said that this was only a little example of what is to come if we do not do as He has asked us to do. It is so simple. We are children that are willful. We are children that must obey our Father. We must pray. We must tell Him that we are sorry for our sins. The prayers in the prayer manual are the prayers that Jesus gave to us to help to turn the priests to holy priests, to help to renew the Church and the world, and to help to bring about the completion of the Fatima message. The priestly newsletter is written by Father Carter but Jesus is writing the newsletter through him to teach His priests about His burning love, to teach them all that they need to know to be holy priests celebrating the Mass and ministering to all of the people. This is a great gift from God and in all great gifts that are given we experience much suffering as we see in the life of Jesus, for He died but He rose on the third day.

3. The message of the angel from Fatima says this: "The angel came… bearing a golden chalice in one hand and a Host above it in the other. The amazed children noticed that drops of blood were falling from the Host into the chalice. Presently, the angel left both suspended in mid-air and prostrated himself on the ground saying, this beautiful prayer: 'Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, I adore You profoundly. I offer You the most precious Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all tabernacles of the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifferences by which He is offended. By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and [the intercession of] the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of Thee the conversion of poor sinners.'"(The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 9)

4. And so He came and He rose on the third day to give us life and we share in His divine life. And He gives to us Himself in the Holy Eucharist. In the Mass, the sacrifice of Calvary is sacramentally made present. It is at this time that we must tell God that we are sorry for our sins, that we want to make reparation for our sins, that we give our hearts to God. For as we unite in this sacrifice with Jesus on the cross to the Father, we make this great act of reparation for our sins. We are a sinful race. We will be blessed and given great gifts when we act as the Father intends us to act. We are sinful. We have as the Father said "run amok". We are doing our own wills. And so the Father speaks on January the 18th and He says, "I am the Father. My plan is unfolding through you, My beloved priest and Rita and the core group in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. I tell you all to read the accounts of Noah. Nowhere in history has God been offended as He is this day by this sinful world. You will suffer a fate for your offenses against God. Mary appeared at Fatima to warn you, the sinful children, how they are offending God, but you did not listen. The war did not change the hearts of many evil men." Eighty years ago Mary appeared at Fatima and she told us what we should do and we did not pay attention. And Mary said, "If you do not do what I tell you to do, there will be a great war." And the whole world suffered from World War II because they did not listen to their heavenly Mother. "I warn you through My beloved daughter, Mary. You did not heed her warnings. Disobedience against the Mother I gave you displeases Me greatly. Mary is the Mother of all children. Mary is a gift from Me, but you are willful and abuse the gift I sent you. You do not make reparation to her Immaculate Heart; you continue to offend her. I will not tolerate the deeds of evil men any longer. My plan will unfold."

5. Jesus came to this earth and He gave Himself as a sacrifice for love of men. I saw Him on the cross with His withered body. I saw Him at the point of death and I saw His mouth move and He said later that no one is listening. Do we not hear the words of our beloved Savior as He speaks to us over and over again in the Mass? How are our minds when we go to the Mass? Are we focused and trying to be in one heart with our beloved Savior in offering the Holy Sacrifice in order to make reparation to the Father? Is this our consuming desire: to give love to the Almighty God? For this is the greatest act of love that God gives Himself to us in the Mass. We are a blind race. We are willful. We are haughty. Jesus has given to us these messages in order that we will turn our hearts to hearts of love, that we will turn our hearts to hearts that praise God, that love God and love one another, that we tell God that we are sorry for the offenses that we have committed against Him, and that we will -- obey Him and love Him     and live according to the Father’s will.

6. And so the Father speaks, “I am the Father, the Almighty God, the Alpha and Omega; you are a sinful people, a chosen race sinning against a loving God.  I am angered at your ways for they are not My ways.  You have run amok.  You have offended your God and You have disobeyed your Mother and My beloved Son Who died for you.”  The Father warned and He has warned again and He has told us what we must do.  The resurrected Lord is here with us this day.  He gives Himself to us in the Holy Eucharist and He is treated with such indifference and such disrespect.  And this is what the angel speaks of in the Fatima message, “I offer You the most precious Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all tabernacles of the world in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifferences by which He is offended.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 9)

7. The angel continues and says, “Take and drink the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, horribly outraged by ungrateful men!  Make reparation for their crimes and console your God.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 10)

8. And so the Father speaks, “I will act on all who continue in such sin.  The sheep will be separated from the goats; the goats will receive punishment for their deeds.  Heaven and earth will kiss and there will be love in all hearts.  Justice will prevail and My children will be children of light, children that obey as I intended from the beginning.”

9. Let us turn our hearts to our beautiful Savior Jesus Christ, Who gave Himself to His death on the cross and Who rose on the third day.  Let us be the soldiers that He has called us to be in the bitter pain and the suffering that we suffer to go forth and to spread the word of God.  Let us ask for the grace to suffer this persecution, but realize that as Mary promised at Fatima that there will be this great reign of peace in which the Sacred Heart of Jesus will Reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph, that we have majorly been called by God here this day to hear this message.

   Jesus:  I give to you, My children, I give to you My Sacred Heart.  I am asking you to march into the darkness and to carry the light, the light that comes forth from My burning Heart of love.  You will be pressed on.  You will be stamped on.  You will suffer and be persecuted, for the devil wants you stopped.  You must be strong.  You must know that I am strengthening you for the task at hand.  You will be strong soldiers.  You wear the marks of battle.  You are marching into a world in which many are godless to carry My light.

   Messenger: I see our beloved Jesus before me as I saw Him once at Immaculata adorned in the brightest light and transfigured before my face.  This will be the banner of light that we will carry into this darkened earth.  But we must stay rooted firmly in Him.  We must give our hearts to Jesus and to Mary, that we will be pure, that we will be able to withstand the torture that we will suffer as we go into battle as soldiers carrying the white flag which will lead to victory.

10. Does not Jesus wear the marks of battle?  I see Him now.  When I go to the Eucharist, I see Him as the Jesus on the front of the Apostles’ Manual with His hands outstretched and the blood in His hands.  Look at His wounds; they are glorified wounds.  He wore the marks of battle and He came forth victorious in the end.  We too will come forth victorious, for we will wear a white flag and we will carry the message of our beloved Savior into this world.  Many will know about Him, will know about His love and His Divine Life because we will tell them what He has shared with us.

Song between decades: “I come to you with greatest love…”

   Jesus:  Are you afraid? Are you afraid, My beloved ones, to march into battle?  How are your hearts, are they rooted in Me or are they fearful?  I am the Almighty God.  It is with My might that you will go forth into this world and there will be victory, for I have won and many hearts will turn to hearts of love as you march forth into the darkness and carry My flag of light and the hearts will be lighted with the fire of My love.  Their hearts will be alive with My burning love.  Look at your world this day.  Look at the children, how many hearts are alive with God’s love?  How many children are being told about My love?  How many people this day are focused on so many things, but do not even give Me a thought?  You are the soldiers I am sending.  Will you say “no” when it gets tough? I will weed out the strong ones from those that are not truly committed.  And it will be with this small in number that the soldiers will march forth into this world, and they will carry the flag of victory.

 

The Ascension

1. It is His Might that will accomplish this task, not mine, not yours, but His Might, as we identify more and more with Him.  And so what does He give to us in order that we can unite more with Him?  He gives us Himself in the Holy Eucharist. We share in such intimacy with the divine God.  We walk down the aisle and we receive God within our breast.  Why do we fear when the Almighty God loves us so much that He gave Himself as a sacrifice on the cross, and He remains with us this day and He gives Himself to us in the Holy Eucharist?

2. Song: “I am the Bread of Life…”

   Jesus:    I love you.  I love you.  I love you.  I am with you at this very moment.  No matter how you feel in your heart give all your cares to Me and I will bathe you in My precious love.  I am the Almighty God.  I give to you a sharing in My Divine life and My Divine love.

3. “I offer You the most precious Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in all the tabernacles of the world in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges, and indifferences by which He is offended.  Take and drink the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, horribly outraged by ungrateful men.  Make reparation for their crimes and console your God.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 9-10)

4. And so He gives to us an abundant sharing in His divine life when we go to the Eucharist.  And how is He treated?  Horribly outraged.  Are we honoring God?  Are we praising God?  Are we giving thanks to God?  Are we loving God? Jesus has given to us the Mass Book. He has given to us the writings of Father Carter in the priestly newsletter in order to instruct the priests more so that they will turn their hearts to hearts of burning love, love for their Savior, that they will consecrate their hearts and give their hearts to Jesus and Mary.  And what about reparation?  Do we even hear about this?  Look at this, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present.  I know that I am a sinner.  But I know this, I know that if I go to the Immaculate Heart of Mary that I can unite in deep union with Christ.  And in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, I unite in deep union with Christ and offer myself to the Father and tell God, “I am sorry for my sins, and for the sins of all men.”  We are a nation.  We are a race.  We must make reparation to God for the creatures of this earth.  We must cry out at the Lamb of God, “Lamb of God, have mercy on us, have mercy on us.”  The Father is displeased with the creatures of this earth.  They are our brothers.  This is what is being said in the Fatima message: we must make reparation to God for we are creatures that have offended our God and we must give Him our love and tell Him that we are sorry.

5. We unite in this deep union with Jesus when we give our heart to the heart of Mary.  How many times I am at the Mass and I see my sins before me.  And I just say, “Oh, Jesus I love You so much and I want to be one with You so much, Jesus.”  I say, “Mary, I give you my heart that I can be pure in your heart and unite deeply to the Heart of Christ.”  As I unite with Jesus in this Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, as my sacrifice becomes one with His sacrifice and I offer it to the Father and tell Him that I am sorry for my sins and the sins of all men, this is most pleasing.  We must make reparation to God, for we are a sinful race.  We are offending God.  This is what Mary tells us, she tells us that we must make reparation.  Why should God give us the light?  Why should He take us into the new era?  Men march around this earth with haughty hearts.  They ignore God.  They do not even tell Him that they are sorry for their sins.  They do not even recognize that they have been tainted by the sin of Adam.  They are haughty in their hearts.  And Mary appears and she says, “You are offending God.  You are a sinful race.  You must give your heart to me and when you give your heart to me, you will unite in such depth with my Son Jesus.  Offer a sacrifice to the Father.  Offer a sacrifice united to the sacrifice of Jesus.  Make reparation for your sin, men.  I am your Mother.  I am telling you what to do.”  And so what do we do?  We curse our Mother.  We ignore our Mother.  We do not do what our Mother tells us.  Eve decided that she would do what she wanted.  What is wrong with us that we do not see that we must obey, obey the will of God.

6. Song: “I am the vine.  You are the branches...”

7. And I heard Him call out on Ascension Thursday several years ago, “I am alive.  I am alive.  I am alive.”  How is God treated this day?  He said that He is treated as a dead object and how it offends Him so greatly when people go to the Eucharist, especially, and they do not even talk to Him or give thought to Him.  This morning at Mass the whole front of the church was covered in a celestial light and I saw the altar of sacrifice.  And then Jesus was exposed after the Mass and I had such a realization of how we make great reparation to God when we unite to the sacrifice of Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and we offer ourselves as a sacrifice to the Father and we tell Him that we are sorry for our sinfulness.  We must do what God is telling us to do.  We must spread these messages.  We must spread the Mass Book and Father Carter’s Newsletter Book.  Priests need to have hearts that are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.  They must give their heart to the Immaculate Heart of Mary that they can be so one in their relationship with Jesus.  The world is in need of renewal.  There is much poison in the Church and the world.  And so we come and we shake our books of prayers and we say, “Pray for the priests.  Pray for the priests.”  We do not have to say. “Jesus said that you should pray for the priests.”  All we have to do is take the book with the imprimatur and say to the people in the churches, ‘This will help renew the Church and the world.  It will help priests to be holy priests.  It is all in prayer.’”  We must do what Mary said at Fatima and consecrate our hearts.  When we pray these prayers, we are doing what Mary told us to do and it will help to bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.  He is alive and He is treated as a dead object in many cases.  We are the soldiers, the soldiers of light, to carry the light into the darkness.  And as men consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, as they are born and brought forth in the womb of the Lady clothed as the sun, brought forth in her immaculate womb, they will be brought forth children of light and will know God with the greatest love, for to know Him is to love Him.  How I long for this great Reign when men’s hearts will be burning and on fire for the love of God.

8. Song: “Oh, burning Heart, oh love divine…” 

    And He speaks and He says, “I love you.  I love you.  I love you. I give Myself to you.”  And the angel said at Fatima how horribly outraged is the Almighty God.  It is up to us to spread these prayer chapters, to do what He wants us to do, to spread the second Blue Book that people will go to the tabernacle and realize the great gift that they are given in the Mass, to spread the Mass Book which is a great gift for it tells us from Jesus’ point of view what is going on in the Mass, but it will have the imprimatur so it can be used by the priests and in the Church, and we will not suffer any persecution and men will know the great gift that God gives to us in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.  It is Himself.

9. Hail Mary…

10. Hail Mary…

Song between decades: “Come Holy Spirit, fill our hearts…”  

        The Descent of the Holy Spirit

1. Eighty years ago today, May the 13^th, 1917, the words of Our Lady, “Do not be afraid.  I do you no harm….  I am from Heaven.  I have come here to ask you to come here six months in succession on the 13^th day, at the same hour.  Later on, I will tell you who I am and what I want.  Are you willing to offer yourselves to God and bear all the sufferings He wills to send you, as an act of reparation for the sins by which He is offended, in supplication for the conversion of sinners?  Pray the Rosary everyday in order to obtain peace for the world, and the end of the war.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorie, p. 12-13)

2. On June the 13^th, Mary spoke.  “There were about 70 people present, and the children were the only ones that could see the apparition.  She told the youngsters that many souls go to Hell because they have no one to pray and to make sacrifices for them.  She said that Francisco and Jacinta would soon leave the world for Heaven.  Holding out her heart, surrounded by thorns which pierced it from all sides, Our Lady told Lucia, ‘God wishes for you to remain in the world for some time because He wants to use you to establish in the world devotion to My Immaculate Heart.  I promise salvation to those who embrace it.’”  What a promise!  “And their are souls will be loved by God as flowers placed by myself to adorn His throne.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorie, p. 13)

3. In July, she spoke, and she said, “You have seen Hell, where the souls of poor sinners go.  To save them, God wishes to establish, in the world, devotion to my Immaculate heart.  If people do what I tell you, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.  The war (World War I, then raging) is going to end.  But if people do not stop offending God, another and worse one will begin in the reign of Pius XI.  When you see a night illuminated by an unknown light [January 2, 1938], know that this is the great sign that God gives you that He is going to punish the world for its many crimes by means of war, hunger and persecution of the Church and the Holy Father.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorie, p. 14)

    And so Jesus spoke in December twice and He told me about chastisements and then the Father began to speak.  And the Father said, “You have disobeyed Mary.  You have disobeyed Jesus.  Now you will disobey Me?  You will suffer a fate.”  And then He spoke of Noah and from that point on until the day of the flood, my stomach was in knots.  And then the day of the flood He spoke that the world has so much poison.  And at the peak of the poison, He will pour down the anecdote in these revelations and they will turn from their sinful ways; but many souls will be lost.  And the Father spoke later and He said, “I gave you gifts at Falmouth and you did not respond.  I gave to you a chastisement.  This is an example of what will happen to the earth if you do not respond.  I am telling you to spread the prayer chapters, to pray the prayers and to spread the priestly newsletter, the Mass Book, and the Priestly Newsletter Book and the Children’s Rosary Book.  All of these things have the imprimatur."  If we do what the Father says, if we make reparation to her Immaculate Heart, He said that He would lessen and/or not give us the chastisements.  But if we do not, He said in several messages that He would wipe off the face of the earth. (Father Carter discerned all of these messages, the following messages are in the Apostle's Manual - January 18, 1997: "Oh indeed My sweet messenger, I look to the earth and see the darkness, I see the disobedience of men against their Mother. I know the deeds committed and the evil in the hearts of so many. Justice will prevail and I will wipe out the earth. Only the children of light will remain, those who have given their hearts to their Mother Mary...") (Also from January 18, 1997: "You are a sinful, willful race, and the devil will vanish from the hearts of the children of light for they will be under the protection of her Immaculate Heart, the other children will be wiped off the face of the earth.") (Jesus said December 22, 1996: "I give water to quench your thirst, I bathe you in My divine love, but to the evil doers, I will curse their name and wipe them from the face of the earth.") (Jesus said March 26, 1996: "Filled with My love, you will conquer this earth, not with weapons and powder or force, but with fires of My love. The fire will wipe out the hatred in the cold hearts and the earth will be covered with My celestial light." All of these messages where discerned by Father Carter.)  The messages are very strong.  I beg you to read the messages in this Apostles Manual.  It is so simple to just do what they are telling us to do.  Do we think that if Mary told us this 80 years ago and we did not obey that the Father will just change His plan because of willful men?  This is the whole course of things.  It is because of the willfulness of Adam and Eve that the Father is displeased.  He is displeased with our sins.  He wants us to make reparation, to pray, to honor the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and to go to the Heart of Jesus.  How can we say “no” 80 years later when He has called us the soldiers of light, the shepherds, that will go out and will help lead the flock into one fold under His guidance?  He has majorly guided us through Father Carter.  We have been very graced that God gave us a holy priest and that He did discern all of these messages, that he was here rosary after rosary after rosary and supported us and told us what we must do, that he is God’s chosen instrument to write the priestly newsletter to renew the Church and the world.  And so, we speak of the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles.  Let us cry out from the bottom of our hearts, “Dear Holy Spirit, descend upon us and turn our hearts from fearful hearts to fearless hearts that we will be the apostles, as the Father intends us to be, to help to usher in this great era.  And we will walk, and as we walk, we will be pressed on and persecuted for the mission that He entrusts to us will help with the salvation of millions of souls, and the devil wants us stopped.  Our beloved Father Carter is here in his heart with us.  We are all joined in this Movement in one mind and one heart to help to renew the Church and the world, especially through these prayer chapters, through the prayers that Jesus has given us, through the priestly newsletter to pray for the priests, and to consecrate our own hearts and to grow in the deepest oneness with our beloved, adorable Savior.

  

   

4. “If my request are granted, Russia will be converted and there will be peace.  If not, she will scatter her errors throughout the world, provoking wars and persecutions of the Church.  The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, and various nations will be destroyed….  But in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorie, p. 15)

5. “On August the 13^th, “consequently Our Lady did not appear to the children on this particular 13^th.  The authorities fearing reaction on the part of the people, quickly released the children” for they were locked in jail.  “Mary appeared to them on August 19^th near Valinhos.  She told them that she was greatly displeased by the action of the mayor.  As a result, the miracle promised for October would not be as impressive as originally planned.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 16)

6. If the Fatima message has been held back, if it has been blocked as it has for 80 years, if the children of Fatima were locked in jail, what makes us think that we would not suffer as we are suffering here today?  For it is very hard in my heart that Father Carter is not here.  Our president John has helped us in so many ways, and each one of us are the apostles.  As we read the Acts of the Apostles and we hear the scriptures every day, we know that our lives are very similar to those of the apostles, and we truly live the gospel message.

7. On October 13, 1917, there were more than 70,000 people gathered in the Cova da Iria in Fatima, Portugal… Shortly afternoon, Our Lady appeared to the three visionaries..., what occurred was the miracle of the sun…

    Then a gasp of terror rose from the crowd, for the sun seemed to tear itself from the heavens and come crashing down upon the horrified multitude.... Just when it seemed that the ball of fire would fall upon and destroy them, the miracle ceased, and the sun resumed its normal place in the sky, shining forth as peacefully as ever.”
(The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorie, p. 4) 

    A great sign was given, but they still did not respond to the great sign of Our Lady.  And Our Lady spoke and she said, “I am Our 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 anymore, for He is already too grievously offended by the sins of men.  People must say the Rosary.”  Our Lady told us we must say the rosary.  “Let them continue saying it every day.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 16)

    Mary has told us what we must do, but we are not obeying our beloved Mother.  Jesus has given to us signs and told us that we must turn from our ways.  The Father has spoken and He has given to us a great sign in Falmouth, Kentucky.  He is imploring all of us here to be the apostles to help usher in this great era.  And so the apostles went forth and there were thousands converted, for they were filled with the Holy Spirit.  They were not afraid.  And they spoke in foreign tongues and all understood.  It is not with our might that we go forth.  It is with the Might of the Almighty God.  For as we give ourselves to Mary and give ourselves to Him, we unite in deep union with Him and as we become more and more one in Him, He operates through us.  He is showing us in these sufferings that He has given to us.  I have never learned to pray as I have.  I know fervently that I can pray and that God truly is hearing our prayers.  But it is not me, it is His Might that is operating here, that we must surrender ourselves totally and let Him operate through us, that we must try to be more one with Him, that we must intercede to all the saints and angels and the Blessed Mother and beg the Father, in union with Jesus, in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass that this great era of peace will come soon and that men will turn their hearts to hearts of love.

8. When Pentecost day came round, they had all met together, when suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of a violent wind which filled the entire house in which they were sitting; and there appeared to them tongues as of fire; these separated and came to rest on the head of each of them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves. (Acts of the Apostles 2:1-4)

    Song: “Come Holy Spirit, fill our hearts…”

9. Jesus has asked us to pray the Infant novena every hour for Father Carter.  But in so doing, it is uniting us at every hour on the hour.  It is as we unite in one body, as we unite in the Morning Offering, in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, with one another, as we say this prayer hourly for Father Carter, and we ask, and we seek and we knock that our prayers will be answered that we ask the Father in the name of Jesus, through the powerful intercession of Our Lady that our prayers will be answered, for He is the Almighty God.  Look at this.  See the Father, the Father above, and He looks down at the earth.  He is the I Am.  He is not as we are.  But He looks down at the earth.  He sees the sins of men.  He sees us as creatures, as a chosen race that is not obeying God.  He sends Mary as a messenger to tell us that we must make reparation for our sins.  We disobey.  He sends her over and over and over again.  Jesus gives to us these messages deep from within His Heart to bring about the reign of His Heart and they are blocked and ignored and treated, not with love, but with much anger, and they are analyzed and people are not treasuring the gift that He gives.  Finally the Father speaks.  He said, “I am the Father.  You have disobeyed Mary.  You have disobeyed Jesus.  Now you think you will disobey Me?  I will chastise the earth.”  So He sends to us the gifts, and He gives to us an example in Falmouth, and then He tells us what we must do.  Will you be His shepherd?  Will you go into the world?  Will you help?  Will you be the one that fervently prays, this day?  He is very disappointed by the prayer life of many of His religious, of many of His faithful.  He has called us to pray fervently.  We are praying fervently for the religious, for the renewal of the Church and the world.  He is calling us to be His apostles.  We will see miracles happen, for it is His Might behind us.

10. Hail Mary…

After the Glory Be:

    He ascended into heaven, but He left behind the apostles to carry out His work.  And He gives to us Himself in the Holy Eucharist, for He is alive and He is truly present in the tabernacle in His Divinity and His humanity.  And so we sing the song that He asks us to sing to remind ourselves.

    Song: “I will be with you that is my promise…”

    And He will weed out the army so that what is left is a strong army in order to march into this world, where there is much willfulness and hatred and darkness and He is covering us with His most precious Blood.  I received a message on Friday.  He called it Bloody Friday and this is what He said.  He was asking us to stop at the hours of 9, 12 , 3 and 6 o’clock and to just say a short prayer for the Shepherds of Christ Movement, to cast the devil into hell and He said at these hours when we pray that He will dress us in His precious Blood.  We are being dressed in His precious Blood, ready to go into battle.  Our arms are the weapons that He has given to us.  They are His love.  Why are we afraid?  We go into battle and we carry our rosary.  This is a great weapon that Our Lady has given to us to help to fight off Satan and she told us at Fatima that we must pray the rosary.

    

   

The Assumption

1. Jesus: Are you afraid? Are you afraid now?  I am telling you that you must pray to the Holy Spirit every day.  Make a novena to the Holy Spirit continually.  The Holy Spirit will transform your hearts from hearts of fear to hearts that are fearless.  I am Jesus, your beloved Savior.  Your might is in Me.  My sweet wonderful loved ones, I give you My Heart on fire and burning for love of you.  Will you carry this love into the world?  Will you tell those that are hurting, that are suffering, that are in pain that Jesus loves you, that Jesus has given Himself for love of you?  

    Messenger:  He is the light of the world.  He shows us that the Almighty God came in the womb of a human creature and He was brought forth.  We too must go to our Mother.  We must be brought forth as children of light through the action of the Holy Spirit and as we go to the womb of the woman, to her Immaculate Heart, we are brought forth into the light and we know God in a different way.  We know God in a way that we can not help but love Him for He opens up the shade and we see.  And what we see makes our heart burn for to know Him is to love Him.  Now we are a people walking as in a fog for we do not see.  We do not know or we would not be offending God.

2. On October the 13^th, 1917, there were more than 70,000 people gathered in Portugal.  They had come to observe the miracle.  Lucia and her two cousins, shortly after noon, Our Lady appeared to them and this is what they said.  

    “As the Lady was about to leave, she pointed to the sun.  Lucia excitedly repeated the gesture, and the people looked into the sky.  The rain had ceased, the clouds had parted, the sun shone forth but  not in its usual brilliance.  Instead, it appeared like a silver disc, pale as the moon, at which all could gaze without straining their eyes.  Suddenly, impelled by some mysterious force, the disc began to whirl in the sky, casting off great shafts of multicolors.  Red, green, blue, yellow, violet - the enormous rays shot across the sky at all angles, lighting up the entire countryside for many miles around, but particularly the upturned faces of those 70,000 spellbound people.  After a few moments the wonder stopped , but resumed a second and third time - three times in all - within about 12 minutes.  It seemed that the whole world was on fire, with the sun spinning at a greater speed each time.  Then a gasp of terror from the crowd, for the sun seemed to tear itself from the heavens and come crashing down upon the horrified multitude….  Just when it seemed that the ball of fire would fall upon and destroy them, the miracle ceased and the sun returned to its normal place in the sky, shining forth as peaceably as before.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 3-4)

3. “When the people arose from the ground, cries of astonishment were heard on all sides.  Their clothes, which had been soaking wet and muddy, now were all clean and dry.  Many of the sick and crippled had been healed of their afflictions.” (The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje, p. 4)

    On May the 13^th of 1993, we had gone to Conyers and the same thing happened to us.  We were covered with water.  It was so awful I couldn’t believe it.  The umbrella turned inside out and all of our possessions were sopping wet.  It was so terrible - the rain.  I couldn’t believe how awful it was and I started to cry when I got to the car because I had lost my children.  And my feet were wet like they were never wet.  Everything that I had - the cameras were sopping wet.  I put them in the car and it was like instantly, they all dried up and this peace came over me.  And from that time I have felt a difference in my heart for I know what is important are the things that Our Lady is telling us.  Before I was worried about the plaques in the back of the car, and the cameras, and myself and being wet.  But at that point she gave me a greater gift for at that point I knew that what was important was what she was telling us.  She had said that darkness had covered the earth and that we were offending God similar to what Mary said at Fatima.  But no one was listening.  Will you listen to this message that Jesus speaks today?  For Mary called, called, called to so many visionaries and she relayed the message.  This is Jesus’ plan for the completion of the Fatima message.  It began October the 13^th of 1996.  Mary started in May and ended October the 13^th.  Jesus started with me on October the 13^th and has given us the messages in the tapes to circulate, to listen to as candle rosaries and He has promised great gifts because He is telling us what to do to help bring about the completion of the Fatima message for the renewal of the Church and the world.  These tapes are so important to Jesus and He said that when we do the candle rosary that He will give the greatest grace to those people present, the same as when the rosary was given on the 13^th of the month.  He wants us to know the messages He has given.  Will you listen to the messages that Jesus gives today or will the Father have to take action more and more because we are not doing what He is telling us to do, for Mary promised at Fatima that there will be a reign of peace.  How are we going to go from where we are today to this reign of peace?  What sign do you think God should give us to get our attention? For we are stubborn and willful in our ways.  We have not learned our lesson.  We are still willful.  Many are not doing what God is telling us to do and obeying His will.  Many do not obey the commandments.  We do not love God, many of us as we should.  Many do not go to church and do not want to help make reparation to God for the offenses against Him.  We are a sinful race.  We, His people, must make reparation for ourselves and for our brothers.  God sees us as a nation, as a family.  He sees us offending Him.

4. Hail Mary…

5. Miracles are signs given to men in order that they take notice so that they will be obedient to the commandments – so that they will love God and love one another.

6. And so we pray the rosary.  We meditate on the lives of Jesus and Mary.  We see their lives more and more and we see that the angel appeared to Mary, asked her to be the Mother of God.  And Mary said, “Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word.”  We see that Mary always complied to the will of the Father.  We see that Jesus, who is God, always did the will of the Father.  This is most important that we live according to the Father’s will.

7. And Mary was assumed into heaven.  She lived her life according to the Father’s will.  Jesus lived His life according to the Father’s will and He ascended into heaven.  Jesus and Mary are our models. Jesus and Mary teach us how to live. If we want to go to heaven, we must follow Them.  In the world today there are many, many plans, that are not the plan of the Father.  The more we give our hearts to Jesus and Mary, the more we dwell in their Hearts, the more we live our consecration to Jesus and Mary, the more we will be joined in one mind and one heart and the more likely we are to be operating according to the Father’s will. In schools, as the school children pray the consecration, they are united in one mind and one heart.  There is usually not discord and there is greater peace and harmony as Mary has promised.  As we give our hearts to Mary and Jesus and our Father, there is peace.  Mary appeared at Fatima to tell us that we should give our hearts to her and Jesus and then we will have peace for we will be united in one mind and in one heart with one plan, the plan of the Father.

  

8. I want to read a message given to Father Carter from Jesus

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

9. Hail Mary…

10. Hail Mary…

Song between decades: “Immaculate Mary”

    

The Coronation

1. Hail Mary…

2. Isaiah 30: 19-23
Yes, people of Zion living in Jerusalem, you will weep no more. He will be gracious to you when your cry for help rings out; as soon as he hears it, he will answer you. When the Lord has given you the bread of suffering and the water of distress, he who is your teacher will hide no longer, and you will see your teacher with your own eyes. Your ears will hear these words behind you, ‘This is the way, keep to it,’ whether you turn to right or left.  You will hold unclean the silverplating of your idols and the goldplating of your images. You will throw them away like the polluted things they are, shouting after them, ‘Good riddance!’ He will send rain for the seed you sow in the ground, and the bread that the ground provides will be rich and nourishing. That day, your cattle will graze in wide pastures. 

3. And they will see with the light of seven suns, for we will be brought forth from the woman clothed as a sun as children of light and we will know God in a way that we never knew God before.  We will have such intimacy with the Almighty God and such love for Him.  Now we are as a people walking in blindness.

4. And Mary comes and she tells us that we must go through her Immaculate Heart and we do not pay heed to what she tells us.

5. She is the Queen of Heaven and Earth.  She was chosen by the Father as the Mother of all and the Mother of Christ.  He came into this world a helpless little baby in the womb of a human person.  Why do we think that we do not need Mary when Christ showed us?

6. Jesus:  And so this is My message to you, My beloved ones, I ask you to carry out this message to the world.  I ask you to begin the prayer chapters in churches, if possible.  If not, to start all prayer chapters that are possible in your homes and other places.  I have given to you these prayers that will help bring about the renewal of the Church and the world.  You must pray these prayers fervently.  You are My apostles.  I am asking you to help.  I am not asking you to be anxious and to worry.  If you are unable to do some of the prayers, I am asking you to spend an hour with Me each day.  In that hour, I will instruct you on the ways of My Heart.  I will reveal to you the will of My Father for you.  I am Jesus.  I have called you here this day.  This will help bring about the completion of the Fatima message which began 80 years before.

    

7. And the earth was covered with much darkness but the sun came out and the sun was bright as the light of seven suns and their hearts were filled with great joy for they knew the presence of God within them.  They were close to the Almighty God in their hearts and they did not fear for He gave to them a great grace.

8. Jesus:  How can you refuse the Mother that I gave to you? She is filled with grace.  My little ones, you must give yourself to the heart of My Mother.  She will take you to the depth of My Heart and you will know My burning love.  You must be strong, for you will suffer.  You will suffer very many trials -- but…

    Song: “I will be with you that is My promise...”

9. The greatest gift that He gives to us is Himself in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.  For I see Him when I walk the aisle, I see Him with His arms outstretched and He is filled with such love.  And He gives Himself to me, and I am wrapped in the presence of the Almighty God, and nothing, nothing here compares to this union with Him.

10. And we stand with His Mother under the cross pleading to the Father to have mercy on us.  He is the Lamb of God.  He is the Lamb that is sacrificed, and so at every Mass, we cry out, “Lamb of God, have mercy on us.”  It is as if we should prostrate ourselves to the ground and to beg the Father to have mercy on us, a sinful race, and tell Him that we truly are sorry for the offenses of ourselves and the other creatures against God and that we want to be forever in His light and that we want the Sacred Heart of Jesus to reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary to triumph.  The new Eve.  The new Adam.  The Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

    He ascended into heaven but He speaks to us this day and He tells us…

    Song: “I will be with you that is My promise...”

    Jesus:  I am Jesus.  I have called you here this day to hear this message.  I am asking you to write a letter of intimacy to Me every day.  I am asking you to live by the Blue Book messages for it will become hard and you will suffer much.  You must go to the Blue Book for I will give you My answer to your trials.  I have written these love letters to you.  You must use the Blue Books.  You will go through tremendous suffering and persecution.  Do not lose heart.  I am strengthening you.  You will be strong soldiers.  Many will be left behind.  You must pray fervently for your leader Father Carter.  He is a great gift to this world.  He is writing the priestly newsletter in order to help renew the Church and the world.  You must pray for Him and for His provincial and for all of the priests that are involved.  I am Jesus.  Pray the novena hourly and unite as close to the hour as possible in one mind, in one heart.  Come, My little ones, I will take you into My Heart.  You must go weekly to your chapter meeting for as you go deeper into My Heart, you will suffer, for many will not understand.  You will be strengthened by those that have consecrated their heart to Me.  They will be your family.  You will be My beating Heart in this world.  This is the core chapter I have called here.  You are the strong ones.  You must pray and do as I have told you.  You must live the messages and study the messages.  It will become difficult unless you go to the weekly meeting and unless you live the messages.  You will not be able to survive this calling for it will become more and more difficult as you assume your role as a leader.  I am Jesus.  Will you answer My call?  Will you be a leader?  Will you live by the messages that I give to you?  Will you pray fervently an hour every day and go to Mass and Communion whenever possible, preferably daily?  You must consecrate your hearts.  If you at this time can not do all of these things, I am asking you to do as many as you feel comfortable with, but to stay close to your chapter.  I do not want you to be anxious and filled with fear.  I want you to come to Me and I will comfort you.  You must do only as you can.  I am not demanding that you do all of these things.  I am asking you to study the messages and try more and more to live the messages and to come closer to My Heart.  I am giving to each of you a special grace to be My apostle.  If you want to answer this call, I will give this grace to you now.  I am Jesus.  This is May the 13th, 1997.  What you do here today will majorly help to renew the Church and the world and to help bring about the completion of the Fatima message.  Will you help?  Will you answer the call of My Mother and yours?  Will you answer My call?  Will you answer the call of your Father?  If you say “no”, who will I call?  

    Song: “I will be with you that is My promise…”

    Song: “Oh burning heart, Oh love divine…”

    Message before the Glory Be:  There was a special prayer intention for someone now that is very dear that’s dying and for those helping him so I would like to include that in the prayers and any of the prayers that are in your heart, for there are prayers that you hold in your heart that you wish special attention from Our Lord, Our Lady and the Father.  We give these prayer intentions to you at this time on this special day and we ask for the grace to help carry out the mission you have entrusted to us, to be strong and to not be afraid.
