Prayer for Grace for our Country

Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

    I am the Good Shepherd, these are My prayers, the prayers I give to help renew the Church and the world, all prayer chapters are asked to include these prayers (found in the Shepherds of Christ Prayer Manual). As My Apostles and Shepherds I ask you to encourage all existing Chapters to try to encourage all existing prayer groups to pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers. Encourage all Churches to pray these prayers. It is most urgent that the people of this earth concur with the Father's wishes to begin Prayer Chapters. This is an urgent request from the Good Shepherd. The flock will become one when they have given their hearts to Jesus and Mary. Encourage all priests to pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers. Your world will be lighted with great light as the people of this earth pray these prayers.

    My promise is this to you My beloved earth: When you give your heart to Me and spread the devotion to My Sacred Heart, I will write your name In My Heart. I promise to give the greatest graces when you pray these prayers for renewal of the Church and the world and take all who pray them deeply into My Heart. The prayers I give will bring about the reign of My Sacred Heart and the triumph of Mary's Immaculate Heart.

                January 15, 2015

                R. Dear God,

                    Please help us do Your will today. We want to pray
                for all our needs and we want to serve You
                and be as You want us to be.

                    Dear God, we offer up all we do all day in
                union with the Mass and we pray for the priests,
                the Church and the world –

                    We thank You God for all the grace You give
                us, we ask You to increase in us faith, hope
                and love and to help us to focus on
                Your presence within our graced, baptized
                soul.

                We know You are God with us and Mary is our
                Mother at our side. We love You God, thank
                You.

                    God has called us to pray for the priests, the
                Church and the world and that is a great
                gift – that we can be so close to Him and
                know He promises to help us.

                Today is Fr. Carter's birthday.
   

 
 

                R. Here is a message Jesus gave Fr. Carter - 20 1/2
                years ago.

 

July 31, 1994

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."

- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)

 

 

Most Sacred Heart of Jesus we place our trust in You.

 

                R. Presence, we want to know God's presence in
                    our graced, baptized soul –

                We ask You dear God to help us to be grateful
                    and joyful to know and love and
                    serve You today in our lives, but
                    not to be overwhelmed in our lives,
                    but confident in Your merciful love.

                When we are suffering or worrying we
                    must stop and ask Him to help us
                    and feel His presence with us and His
                    Might able to help us with whatever it is.

                    I want to know His presence in My
                graced, baptized soul. We celebrated Christmas
                and we celebrated "God with us".

                    We are His instruments, His witnesses
                to be what He wants us to be –

                We are children of God –

                When we pray the Our Father we recognize
                    Our Father – we give Him praise,
                    we recognize that He has a plan for us
                    and for men, we tell God we want His
                    will – We ask God to nourish us and
                    feed us our daily bread – we pray for spiritual
                    food to feed us and we ask for forgiveness
                    for our trespasses and tell God we want
                    the grace to forgive others and we pray
                    for grace to not give into temptation
                    and be delivered from evil.

                What a prayer for the child of God praying
                    to their Father. Jesus told us to pray
                    this way.

                We have the beautiful prayer Jesus gave
                    Fr. Carter to pray for the priests, the Church
                    and the world –

                We have the Litanies to Mary and Jesus –

                R. We can pray and communicate to God –

                We need that grace – to be filled more
                    abundantly with God's life in us –

                That we can see with His eyes –
                    see with the soul – His vision –
                    not only to see what is seen with naked vision
                    our eyes, but to see with the soul –
                    His vision for us in everything –

                To know God's presence with us –

                To reach for our mission with enthusiasm and
                    live being one in Him

...I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me.

   

                R. Cloth us God with Your grace –
                    lest we stumble and fall –
                    We are little ones that need
                    Your Fatherly protection –
                    the hand of God reaching out to
                    us His little child –

                The light of God to light our path –

                The hope that our lives lived for Him
                    will bring light and peace to others
                    as we witness to him in our
                    lives, by our example and love.

                Jesus: I am with you.

                Song: A Song from Jesus

                R. Days turn into weeks
                Weeks turn into months
                Months turn into years –

                We can only live today –

                Song: Live This Day

                R. God is with us

 

 

   

                R. Jesus is truly present on the altar –

 

                Rise Up Jerusalem – let your light shine –

                God has visited His people

                Excerpts from December 23, 2014

                Jesus: Reach, oh daughter of Zion,
                    your day has come –
                    throw away your polluted rags –
                    what waits you is the
                    golden cloth you can obtain
                        from heaven –

                Seek the heavenly reward –

                Throw off the dark rags that
                    you once thought were so
                    beautiful

   
 
Can't you see - your vision
    is impaired

Take off your glasses –

                God is in charge –

                Don't be afraid –

                R. Seek God and He will be found –

                Seek God and live to know Him more and
                    more –
                    Pray to the Holy Spirit
   


 
 

                R. Seek and believe in what God has
                    told you –

                Why do you hold onto dark debris
                    clogging your heart –

                God is with you –

                Embrace Him –

                Put away fear –

                Seek the morning of gladness –

                Today is the day to love –

                Reach with the Heart of Jesus –

                Song: Give me Your Heart oh Jesus –

 

Isaiah 12: 2

Look, he is the God of my salvation:
I shall have faith and not be afraid,
for Yahweh is my strength and my song,
he has been my salvation.’

     

                R. Holy Mary, Spotless Virgin we
                    love you

 

                Excerpt from October 5, 2014

                Mary: I loved God in my life as a little
                    child of my Father, the Mother of
                    Jesus and the Spouse of the Holy Spirit –

                I am the singular vessel –

                I show you my Immaculate Heart –

                You, as handmaids of Jesus, are to live
                    your life to be pure in heart –

                I am Mary, the Immaculate Heart –

                I give you my heart to come and dwell
                    in my heart, your spiritual womb –
                    I am your spiritual Mother –

                You are not alone –

                I want you to be united to me –

                I give you my love as your spiritual Mother,
                    I want you to pray through my powerful
                    intercession.

                I appeared to you October 2, 2014 to teach you
                    about intercession through My Immaculate
                    Heart.

                R. Mary appeared to me October 2, 2014 in
                    magnificent light and her beauty was
                    unmeasured in her faces she showed
                    me. There was a silence as I watched the vision –
                    a silence, so still in the vision, but the
                    handmaids and another person prayed the rosary
                    outside the apparition room in one voice –
                    it sounded very unified and strong
                    and sincere, but in her vision I
                    know a profound stillness as I
                    watched Mary in such enormous
                    light, pray, her mouth moving so
                    distinctly, so pronounced with them as
                    they prayed. I continued to watch this
                    for the first two decades of the rosary,
                    for apparitions seem to leave me
                    weak sometimes and then I am
                    wrapped in that peace of having
                    seen her and left listless or tired.
                    She prayed pronounced with them and
                    it looked as if in great unity with
                    them. Unity is the word I knew –
                    Unity and sincerity in their prayers
                    and unity of the Mother of God appearing
                    before me in such beauty and light –
                    praying in unity with them, but there
                    was only stillness in the apparition –
                    no noise.

                        I have an apostle rosary I place on
                    the Mary statue in the apparition
                    room and when I pray the rosary
                    or lead the rosary in the room
                    I hold that rosary many times – I lead
                    the beginning of every bead only with
                    Hail Mary and they say all the rest of
                    the prayer. It is a profound unity in
                    one voice I hear when they are
                    out there many times, sometimes I
                    feel the sound is the sound of unity
                    I hear that is joined by what God
                    is allowing me to hear, the songs I
                    lead are very united in perfect
                    voice and very angelic. The voices
                    perfectly synchronized and heavenly
                    sounding and there is absolute
                    stillness in the vision.

                        On October 2nd as they prayed and I
                    heard this unity from those outside the
                    apparition room – I saw the same
                    way visions of Mary change for the
                    20 years she has appeared to me –
                    Stillness and her beautiful face changes
                    from different faces without a noise,
                    so smooth as when the Monstrance
                    in China has changed positions –
                    it turns without a noise, without
                    any seeing it turn, it is in motion
                    without detectable motion of it
                    turning.

                        Mary was like this in the vision –
                    surrounded in light and the faces
                    of the Virgin different as her faces
                    changed, one more beautiful and
                    different than the other – so beautiful
                    and a profound response of her
                    answering or praying with the
                    prayers united outside the room –
                    in stillness of her response inside –
                    I have never seen this before – it was
                    at a certain point and made clear
                    to me – she held an invisible rosary
                    and her fingers were going from bead to bead
                    as she prayed with them.

                        I watched this vision for as long as I
                    could, then I was left weak and
                    sort of limp, hearing the praying outside
                    and continuing to just bath in a
                    quiet presence.

                        I was not focused on Jesus, but to
                    the left I saw light and knew His
                    presence in there likewise, Mary's
                    apparition was the focus and she was
                    giving this gift to us in the first day of
                    retreat. Many times I receive an
                    apparition of Mary on the 2nd
                    of the month and sometimes the 3rd
                    too, many times the 5th. It is not unusual
                    for me to see Mary on the 2nd.
                    This date to me, reminds me of the Two Hearts,
                    of Jesus and Mary and the calling
                    I receive to come do the retreat
                    the 2nd to the 5th in the Clearwater
                    building.

                        As I watched Mary pray more profoundly
                    than I ever saw with those outside and
                    heard such profound unity in their
                    prayers, although Mary looked in
                    complete unity with them, I wondered
                    if she would say

                        Hail Mary – to herself
                        Holy Mary – praying this –

                    I have wondered this before –

                    The next day I was told of Mary's powerful
                    intercession, when we pray and ask her
                    to intercede for us to God –

                        Mary, the Mother of God –
                        Mary, the pure and Immaculate Heart –
                        Mary, our Mother,

                    Intercedes to God, Our Heavenly Father,
                        Jesus, the Son of God and her
                        Spouse the Holy Spirit.

                    In this place heaven showed me –
                        how powerfully Mary prays as
                        an intercessor –
                        the perfect prayer –
                        the pure prayer –
                        a heavenly prayer of intercession
                            to her Son Jesus as we
                            know and were shown the
                            prayer of Mary to her Son at
                            the Marriage of Cana –

                To you, as a messenger, I account this
                experience - for never will I have such
                an understanding of Mary's powerful
                intercession as I have now from
                this vision.

Galatians 4: 4-7

but when the completion of the time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, born a subject of the Law, to redeem the subjects of the Law, so that we could receive adoption as sons. As you are sons, God has sent into our hearts the Spirit of his Son crying, ‘Abba, Father’; and so you are no longer a slave, but a son; and if a son, then an heir, by God’s own act. 

 

 

Luke 2: 15-19

Now it happened that when the angels had gone from them into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, 'Let us go to Bethlehem and see this event which the Lord has made known to us.' So they hurried away and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in the manger. When they saw the child they repeated what they had been told about him, and everyone who heard it was astonished at what the shepherds said to them. As for Mary, she treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart.

 


. . .

                The warmth of Your love, God –

                Let us walk in surrendering love and
                    gratitude to You and
                    seek to be under You –
                    filled by You –
                    never apart from You –

                In this we are confident and strengthened
                    as we are filled more and more by God –

                Embraced by His loving arm –

                Permeated with His grace, His life in
                    us filling us –

                I am Yours – Lord

                I come to do Your will –

                It is in the simple things of life –
                    We know His strength in all we do –

                We let go to Him –

                He is Almighty –

                We are the soul, waiting His favor –

                The beauty of a rose –
                The vast sky –
                The wide ocean –
                The love of children, little ones,
                The deep love of friendship –

                These are everlasting – the love
                    of friends –

Serenity Prayer

God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change...
Courage to change the things I can
and Wisdom to know the difference.

  

                R. I look to the heavens –

                From there comes my help –

                My life is in Him!!
 

Genesis 12: 1-7

Yahweh said to Abram, ‘Leave your country, your kindred and your father’s house for a country which I shall show you; and I shall make you a great nation, I shall bless you and make your name famous; you are to be a blessing!

    I shall bless those who bless you, 
    and shall curse those who curse you, 
    and all clans on earth 
    will bless themselves by you.’ 

    So Abram went as Yahweh told him, and Lot went with him. Abram was seventy–five years old when he left Haran. Abram took his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, all the possessions they had amassed and the people they had acquired in Haran. They set off for the land of Canaan, and arrived there.

    Abram passed through the country as far as the holy place at Shechem, the Oak of Moreh. The Canaanites were in the country at the time. Yahweh appeared to Abram and said, ‘I shall give this country to your progeny.’ And there, Abram built an altar to Yahweh who had appeared to him.

 

                R. Praise God –

                Praise Him with the trumpet –

                Be attentive to God who is
                    close in our every breath –

                Breathe in Jesus –
                Breathe out fear
                Breathe in Jesus
                Breathe out fear

                Let the eyes see the care He gives
                    to the flowers and
                    ask ourselves – are not we
                    far more precious than the flowers?

                Do we see the genealogy and know
                    how God has a Plan in
                    salvation history in our
                    lives – why do we ignore
                    such a calling –

                Jesus: Rise up Jerusalem –

                Your time has come –

                Open your eyes to the Lord and
                Quit, I beg you, burying your head in the sand.

                Why do you worship the rocks and
                Ignore your Creator –

                Why do you bury your head in the
                    sand, Jerusalem –

                Raise your eyes to the heavens and see
                    the sky by day, the star-studded
                    sky by night –

                Oh Jerusalem, you are blinded and
                    reach for the earthy –
                    Come to the mountain top and
                        see the city that is sleeping
                        in darkness –
                    Pray, Jerusalem, Pray for your
                        ancestors to pray with you –
                        pray for a new day of brightness and light
                        among the people walking in darkness –
 

                end of excerpts from 12/23/2014

 

                January 15, 2015 continues

                R. God loves us with His unfathomable love –

                We are the poor banished children of Eve and
                    He loves us so much –

                Who are we that God loves us so much.

                The angel of Portugal appeared to the children
                    in 1916 before Mary's apparitions –
                    that was almost 100 years ago.

                 

Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima

by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

Before receiving the six apparitions of Our Lady, May through October of 1917, the three Fatima visionaries were visited by an angel on three different occasions during the preceding year. He appeared to them in the spring, summer, and fall. Lucia (now Sr. Lucia) describes the springtime apparition of the angel:

"My God, I believe, I adore, I hope and I love You! I ask pardon of You for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope and do not love You."

Then, rising he said: "Pray thus. The Hearts of Jesus and Mary are attentive to the voice of your supplications."

His words engraved themselves so deeply on our minds that we could never forget them (3)

During the summer of 1916, the angel again appeared to the three visionaries. He said to them:

Pray! Pray a great deal. The Hearts of Jesus and Mary have merciful designs on you. Offer prayers and sacrifices continually to the Most High. Make everything you do a sacrifice, and offer it as an act of reparation for the sins by which God is offended, and as a petition for the conversion of sinners. Bring peace to our country in this way.... I am the Guardian Angel of Portugal Accept and bear with submission all the sufferings the Lord will send you. (4)

In the fall of the same year, the angel visited the visionaries a final time:

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 indifference 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." (5)

Sr. Lucia relates how the angel gave them Communion:

Then, rising, he took the chalice and the Host in his hand. He gave the Sacred Host to me and shared the Blood from the chalice between Jacinta and Francisco, saying as he did so:

"Take and drink the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, horribly outraged by ungrateful men! Make reparation for their crimes and console your God." (6)

Reflecting upon these messages of the angel, we see how much they contain for our spiritual instruction.

Hebrews 1: 1-6

At many moments in the past and by many means, God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets; but in our time, the final days, he has spoken to us in the person of his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things and through whom he made the ages. He is the reflection of God's glory and bears the impress of God's own being, sustaining all things by his powerful command; and now that he has purged sins away, he has taken his seat at the right hand of the divine Majesty on high. So he is now as far above the angels as the title which he has inherited is higher than their own name.

To which of the angels, then, has God ever said:

    You are my Son, today I have fathered you,

or:

    I shall be a father to him and he a son to me?

Again, when he brings the First-born into the world, he says:

    Let all the angels of God pay him homage.

 

Mark 1: 14-20

After John had been arrested, Jesus went into Galilee. There he proclaimed the gospel from God saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is close at hand. Repent, and believe the gospel.’

As he was walking along by the Lake of Galilee he saw Simon and Simon’s brother Andrew casting a net in the lake—for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, ‘Come after me and I will make you into fishers of people.’ And at once they left their nets and followed him. 

    Going on a little further, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John; they too were in their boat, mending the nets. At once he called them and, leaving their father Zebedee in the boat with the men he employed, they went after him.

 

Hebrews 3: 7-14

That is why, as the Holy Spirit says: 

If only you would listen to him today! 
Do not harden your hearts, 
    as at the rebellion, 
as at the time of testing in the desert, 
when your ancestors challenged me, 
and put me to the test, 
    and saw what I could do 
for forty years.
 

That was why 

that generation sickened me 
and I said, ‘Always fickle hearts, 
that cannot grasp my ways!’ 
And then in my anger I swore 
that they would never enter my place of rest. 

Take care, brothers, that none of you ever has a wicked heart, so unbelieving as to turn away from the living God. Every day, as long as this today lasts, keep encouraging one another so that none of you is hardened by the lure of sin, because we have been granted a share with Christ only if we keep the grasp of our first confidence firm to the end.

 

Mark 1: 40-45

A man suffering from a virulent skin–disease came to him and pleaded on his knees saying, ‘If you are willing, you can cleanse me.’ Feeling sorry for him, Jesus stretched out his hand, touched him and said to him, ‘I am willing. Be cleansed.’ And at once the skin–disease left him and he was cleansed. And at once Jesus sternly sent him away and said to him, ‘Mind you tell no one anything, but go and show yourself to the priest, and make the offering for your cleansing prescribed by Moses as evidence to them.’ The man went away, but then started freely proclaiming and telling the story everywhere, so that Jesus could no longer go openly into any town, but stayed outside in deserted places. Even so, people from all around kept coming to him.

Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Litugical Year (2011/2012)
$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10
