A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb,
the Bridegroom of the Soul

    Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.

    

               Pray for 4 urgent intentions.

               Pray for a particular bishop and cardinal.

               Pray for the pope.

                Pray for all the bishops of the world.
                         
               We desperately need funds.
          Please pray for this.

Messenger:        Mental Health. The devil tries to get us focused
                                on ourselves.

Jesus speaks:    I want you to be productive.

                   Oh My child, do not fret or fume, I am your
                        Savior.

Messenger:        Today's Mass was so very beautiful I felt Jesus
                           presence so strong as He was in the room
                           standing after communion. I felt as if
                           I could see Him in the room dressed in
                           white with a cord about His waist to
                           the left of the altar. I felt such a
                           presence.

                            Jesus gives us so many gifts and we don't
                           appreciate many of them because of
                           negative distraction.

Jesus speaks:     My dear child, I am with you.

Messenger:        Did you ever feel burdened by something
                           someone has said. We must judge if
                           it is the right things. The devil will work to
                           try to get someone to focus on us.

                                What does Jesus call me to today. Count
                            the pedals on the flowers, count the
                            sweet looks of the little child. We can
                            profit from suffering.
                            God allows us to suffer, sometimes we
                            suffer because of our own actions.

                                May the light of Jesus fill your
                            heart with joy.

Dear Father and dear Friends,

        Thanks a lot for your Prayer Manuals sent to me weeks ago.

        I am starting a campaign to get friends for The Eucharistic Heart of Our Lord. All these people are my Vietnamese parishioners.

        We will gather together around the Holy Lord in the Tabernacle every Sunday evening, in order to be with
Him for about one hour. Please keep us in your loving prayers before Our Lord.

        Enclosed please accept a check for $50.00 as my share in your printing and shipping costs.

                Very sincerely in Cordibus Jesu et Mariae,

                Rev. ________

Dear Mr. John Weickert:

    I have just received by mail, a complimentary copy of Shepherds of Christ (2002), by the late Rev. Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder of the 'Shepherds of Christ Movement'.

    I thank you very warmly for the volume, which will be of immense help to me for the monthly adoration for all the priests of the diocese, before the Blessed Sacrament, on August 4, 2002, when we celebrate St. John Mary Vianney (1786-1859) Sunday in prayer and recollection.

    With my blessing and an assurance of prayers for your valuable work, I shall remain always,

                                            Yours fraternally in the Hearts
                                            of Jesus and Mary,

                                            Rt. Rev. _____
                                            Bishop of the Catholic Diocese
