Dear Member and Donor,  

     I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in love. Merry Christmas! 

     Jesus asked me to send you Blue Book 11. In this troubled world we can turn to Jesus.  

     Here is what Jesus said to tell you.

 Excerpt from Response in Christ - Chapter 4 by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.

     In schematic outline we have discussed the manner in which the baptized Christian extends his Mass to his daily existence. As he so lives out his Mass, he is becoming more Christlike. He becomes a more perfect priest and victim for his next participation in the eucharistic sacrifice.42 The beautiful cycle which the Mass contains lies exposed before us. As part of this cycle the Christian is intimately involved in the process of continued redemption. The Mass is the center of the Christian life: ". . . the liturgy is the summit toward which the activity of the Church is directed; at the same time it is the fount from which all her power flows."43

42. For a current treatment of the varied richness of the Eucharist, cf. J. Wicks, "The Movement of Eucharistic Theology" in Chicago Studies, Vol. 10 (1971), pp. 267-284.
43. The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, No. 10.

 

                November 21, 2013

Jesus: I call you to live your lives as devout members of the mystical body of Christ. I have given these writings that men will realize that they are to live united deeply to the Mass going on around the world. Your lives, given as an offering, a sacrifice every moment in union with the Mass going on around the world. Your life, a sacrifice, offered to the Father, in union with the Mass in oneness with Me, in the Holy Spirit through the intercession of the Blessed Mother with all the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory.

    Your lives given as members of My mystical body can help to bring down great graces for the priest, the Church and the world.

   

Excerpt from Response in Christ - Chapter 4 by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.

"How does the Christian help Christ redeem the world? (Henceforth the term "world" is to be understood as including both rational and nonrational creation.) As previously stated, the Christian helps Christ redeem the world by reliving Christ's mysteries. The same "events" or mysteries which accomplished the objective redemption further the subjective redemption also. Since at the heart of Christ's mysteries are His death and Resurrection, it is especially these that the Christian must relive. As the Christian dies mystically with Christ through loving conformity with the Father's will, he rises with Christ to an ever greater share in the Resurrection, in the newness of life, in the life of grace. As the Christian in this manner relives the paschal mystery of Christ, he is accomplishing not only his own redemption, but he is also, in a mysterious yet real manner, helping Christ redeem the world."

The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

R. The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present. I give myself in the act of total surrender to the Father. The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present -- meditate on this. The celebrant, the priest, is to be so one with Christ. The priest putting on Christ so one in offering himself to the Father. This sacrifice is so pleasing to the Father.

Jesus: Unite in this Holy Sacrifice, My chosen ones. All through the day unite all your chores as a holy offering in union with the Holy Sacrifice being offered throughout the world, to the Father. Every action you perform is magnified in this holy offering. Love is sacrifice. You give in this offering your greatest act of love when you give Him yourself. Live in this total surrender, yielding to the Father, living in His Will and you will give the greatest act of love to Him and to all. I gave My life for you. You give your life to the Father, united in this Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. I call you to love God and love one another. In this sacrifice you surrender yourself and offer yourself to God. This is the greatest act of love you can give to each other, to live in the Father’s will.

Be not prideful, selfish, blind or dumb. Be as I have taught you. To My death on the cross I complied to the Father’s will. This is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present. Unite yourselves to this at all times.

I am giving to you great graces to grow deeper in your union with Me. The Holy Spirit gives to you a sharing in these insights into these mysteries, into knowing about sharing in Divine life in baptism. Open your hearts and pray to receive these graces and to grow more and more in your knowledge, love and serve of God.

Come to My altar and celebrate the mystery of God’s love. You come to the altar as you are and you ask for forgiveness for all of your offenses, with a humble and contrite heart you ask for mercy from the Almighty God for your sins.

In this celebration you come to praise, give thanks, petition and offer yourselves in greatest love to the Almighty God. The word of God is read, every word so special, to feed you in your life. Each word fills you with the greatest love of God. You sing praises to Him who is all worthy of all of your love.

 

January 10, 1996 - 9:00 a.m. - At Mass

Emptying Yourself is the Only Way

R. Jesus gave Himself as the greatest sacrifice ever, totally emptying Himself. They pierced His Heart and what flowed out was blood and water. When we love Him we empty ourselves more and more and identify with Jesus’ sacrifice of offering Himself. I realized how I was to empty myself because I love Him so much.

In the Psalm of the Good Shepherd, it says, ..”And I will dwell in the courts of the Lord for years to come.” My whole desire is to be united with Him in deepest union forever, our lives have meaning in this.

With all my heart I offer myself as a sacrifice for the spread of the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary and Their intentions. My whole consuming desire is for this intention of giving myself to God, to use me as you want to, according to the Father’s Plan. Such love for the Father, giving myself to Him, imperfect as I am, but such great love for Him. The Gospel was about the Father - this overwhelmed me with love for Him, seeing how He is one with Jesus, but knowing Him as My beloved Father. Great joy in this oneness with God. I love the Trinity - I love each Person of the Trinity, I love God.

I want to give the greatest love to God. The greatest love I can give is in emptying myself - it is in sacrifice wanting the Father’s will for me. My great love for Him compels me to see no alternative. I love Him so much. I give myself freely without counting the cost. There is not another way. In my overwhelming love for Him I totally empty myself and realizing there is not another way, for to love Him is to give myself to Him as He desires.

The greatest gift I can give to others is giving myself to Him. Jesus emptied Himself. I understand more, emptying myself with all my heart. Wanting to love Him more, I learn to empty myself, pray for self-lessness.

We are to love Him with all our heart, all our soul, all our being. Our greatest desire is God’s will. We should love to be united to Him in deepest union for all eternity, there is not a choice. It takes giving of oneself, emptying oneself to Him and giving great love to others.

It is in the Mass we give the greatest love to God as we join in this sacrifice with His Son, Jesus. The Mass, offered through the hands of the priest, to the Father.

Jesus emptied Himself and gave His all. In the Mass this sacrifice is sacramentally made present. We unite, we die to our selfish ways. When the priest raises up the Host and says, “This is My Body”, the Father looks down and sees the sacrifice of His Son. We unite and give ourselves, give our all, offer ourselves, as a sacrifice to the Father, united to Jesus. When the priest raises up the chalice and says, “This is My Blood”, we give ourselves - we empty ourselves, and we want to die to all that is not like Him. We die to live more in Him. Jesus feeds us with His Body and His Blood and He gives to us the “Bread of Life.”

He tells us, “I am the Bread of Life. He who comes to Me shall not be hungry.” Look at the world. Look at the hungry souls. Jesus gives Himself to us, to feed us. He feeds us with His very own Body and Blood.

As we unite in this Holy Sacrifice all over the world all day we can unite to the Mass. We see the Body and Blood of Christ raised and elevated in our hearts, we unite every moment of the day in our self-sacrificing gift of our love, given to God.

We die to our ways not like Jesus and offer ourselves united to Jesus as a sacrifice to the Father. We receive an outpouring of His grace – His life more and more in abundance, dying that we share in His life. All through the day make spiritual communions and unite to this gift of Himself given in the Holy Eucharist. The greatest gift of our love is to empty ourselves and give ourselves to God.

 

January 10, 1996

Priests Raise High the Host

R. This offering continues all day in all our actions, if we unite them to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. We offer ourselves as a sacrifice. We die with Him, that we will raise to new life more and more in Him. Our every action is an offering with Jesus, His Son, to the Father in the Holy Spirit.

This is our continual love, given to God and to all men, as we unite in this our offering. Whatever we do, if it is the Will of the Father, we are offering a great act of love to God. Through Him, With Him, and In Him, I die with Jesus and unite in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

Special Moments in the Mass:

Let us celebrate the Mystery of God’s love. Let us open our hearts to the graces He gives us that we may understand more fully the great gift of the Mass. Jesus Christ gives Himself to us. Who are we that God gave Himself as a sacrifice on the cross for love of us and the sacrifice of Calvary is sacramentally made present in the Mass, all over the world all day. Help us to receive graces to understand more fully this Divine Mystery of God’s love and to treasure the gift of Himself, given to us in the Holy Eucharist.

The world is so hungry, waiting to be fed and He comes with a kind and gentle Heart and gives us the gift of Himself. The world is looking for the perfect love affair. Jesus gives Himself to us and we give ourselves to Him in the deepest act of intimate love in the Mass.

When the priest mixes the drop of water with the wine and says, “let us share in the Divinity of Christ, who humbled Himself to share in our humanity.” Think of this God who gives us a sharing in His life.

The first miracle at Cana was when God changed water into wine. How great it would be to witness this miracle. How much greater is the gift of the Mass when, through the hands of the priest, bread is changed into the Body of Christ and wine is changed into His Blood.

I pray the priest raises high the consecrated host that I may love this gift more and more in the Mass, that I may see the great love of God, more and more. Let’s spread this message about the intimate love of God at Mass.

I want to adore His Body and adore His Blood, and to offer my all - to the Father.

Every word of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is so beautiful. Let us savor these special words of greatest love. I see the hands of the priest as so sacred. He is so sacred and chosen by God. Such dignity and love should be given to the priest!

                R. In 1996 Jesus appeared transfigured in the front of the Church in Holy Cross-Immaculata several times.

                At the end of 1996 Mary appeared on the building in Clearwater December 17, 1996.

 


             From Blue Book 10

January 8, 1996 12:45 p.m.

I Saw Jesus Transfigured

R. I went to Immaculata. The snow was so bad and the road to the church was blocked. I parked and walked to the church, knowing I could only stay a short while for my car was not parked in a legal spot. I went in and was overwhelmed with the presence of God. I kept seeing the statue of the Sacred Heart in the front of the church glow and look so beautiful and alive. I saw Jesus transfigured before me. I cried all the way to Mass, after this, at Fr. Carter’s. I was so strongly connected to all Three Persons and realizing Their presence. It had penetrated my every cell and I felt Them in my every moment. I could see with eyes unveiled as I drove along. My car would go without any problems. Others looked perplexed, burdened, troubled and anxious. It was so apparent to me, being engulfed in this immense presence, how, if we see with His eyes, if we are one in Him, we have nothing to fear!

Jesus looks down from above and says, “fear not, My little ones, I am with you when the sun ceases to shine and the moon is darkened and not shedding its light. I am the Light. I am what you seek. I am Mighty and ever vigilant for all your needs.”

This morning I was so aware of my espousal to Him. I was so aware of how He truly cares about all the thoughts I think and every detail of my life. Jesus cares for me as the most devoted spouse except so much more. I hug His crucifix and I love Him so much. I am espoused to You, God, and I love You with all my heart. Thanks for everything, even my toe nails that I do not understand. Thanks for every knuckle and cell in my body. Thank You for the beautiful snow and the new born baby. Thank You for allowing me to live Your life in my life and partake in the mystery of God’s love.

 

January 9, 1996

I Saw Jesus Transfigured Again

R. Today I prayed at All Saints, then left to attend a funeral and thought of going to Holy Cross-Immaculata and I prayed I would get in and pray. I am so close to God there. I went in and the statue was all aglow and around it, it glistened in the deepest iridescent light and Jesus was transfigured before me.

I was engulfed again in my love of God and cried so hard because I love Him so much. In this intimate act of giving myself totally to Him, my whole act was in emptying myself, wanting only to be lost in Him and united forever to Him in this most blissful moment. I turned myself over and was lost in Him, knowing His presence with me and knowing His deep love. The world stopped and I existed in Him, longing to forever stay there, so this moment would never end.

I touched you, God and in this embrace I knew your unending love. I saw Your Body as if it was transfigured and glowing in light and I was lost in Thee.

Love is giving. I am dependent on God for my love. I interact with others but I cannot and do not want to expect things in return.

I love to be loving. Jesus loved all men with the deepest love. I, too, must love all with this love and see Christ in them. The love I have for others comes from the deep and burning love for God.

To look at the world and to see with eyes unveiled - this is a great grace. To see the presence of God within each person and to love the Christ in them.

The incarnation goes on in us. We are transformed more and more into the image and likeness of Jesus. We can be evocative and bring out the uniqueness in others and see them as God’s special creation – to see with eyes unveiled, to see Christ in others.

Priests may have a non-emotional relationship with Him. The First Friday and First Saturday devotions seem to be treated so lightly. The importance of the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart is not their focus as Jesus wants. Unless a sufficient number of people consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary we won’t have peace in the world. What do priests talk about?

People - need to consecrate their hearts to Jesus and Mary.

What about Mary’s message of Fatima?

1) Consecrating hearts
2) First Saturday
3) Rosary
4) Conversion

World War II started - who listened to Mary’s plea? Mary is holding back the hand of God – Mary said this about 4 weeks ago. Mary said just a couple of weeks ago that she will be there in the rosary - not talking too much longer - but who is paying attention? She calls about the children - I am one person:

1) consecrating their hearts - spread to all!!
2) First Saturdays
3) Praying the rosary

Parents should tell their children all about what Mary said! Schools should tell the children about what Mary said and the rosary, but who is telling them about the love of God - the most important thing?

Where are the youth seen praying? Is the modeling there?

Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle B —  The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A — The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C — In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B — At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15

Audio CD - Read by Father Edward J. Carter
$ 10.00  plus postage

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #1 - CD. - Christ is Our Strength - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our-selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #2 - CD. - Suffering: A Source of Life - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. Fr. Carter knew suffering that year. His voice is so powerful as he read each Newsletter from his heart and soul. "Every man has his own share in the redemption. Each one is also called to share in that suffering through which the redemption was accomplished. He is called to share in that suffering through which all human suffering has also been redeemed. In bringing about the redemption through suffering, Christ has also raised human suffering to the level of the redemption. Thus each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ–." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
