Messenger: A Book should be made
A Tribute to Fr. Carter (Founder of the Shepherds of Christ Movement)
Also a video should be made from the book.
I watched him walk with his cane and his crutch
he got weaker and weaker.
He even went to China on September 8, 2000 for Our Lady's
birthday. He was really weak, but he
delivered this homily that day.
Homily delivered by Father Carter
in China, Indiana
September 8, 2000
Matthew 1:18-23
Joseph adopts Jesus as his son
This is how Jesus Christ came to be born. His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph; but before they came to live together she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph, being an upright man and wanting to spare her disgrace, decided to divorce her informally. He had made up his mind to do this when suddenly the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, ‘Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because she has conceived what is in her by the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son and you must name him Jesus, because he is the one who is to save his people from their sins.’ Now all this took place to fulfil what the Lord had spoken through the prophet:
Look! the virgin is with child
and will give birth to a son
whom they will call Immanuel,a name which means ‘God–is–with–us’.
Father Carter's homily
We notice that the Church in Her liturgy for the celebration of the birthday, the Birth of Mary, immediately puts her with Jesus:
"She will give birth to a son and you must name him Jesus, because he is the one who is to save his people from their sins." (Mt 1:21) – words from today's Gospel.
And so the Church reminds us that Mary was born for the sake of Jesus. Again, in celebrating her birth, the Church links her very, very directly with Jesus. Yes, this is the reason for her birth: to be Mother of Jesus, and in doing that, everything else about her takes its proper place.
And just as Mary was dedicated entirely to Jesus and to His cause, we in giving her a birthday present of the highest value can only promise her, "Mary, as you were completely dedicated to Jesus, help me be completely dedicated to Him. You were His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ."

Messenger:
He said the Masses with such emotion,
Even at the end in his weakened state, they
wheeled Fr. Carter into the little chapel
where he had celebrated so many Masses
and Fr. Hagee his Jesuit friend celebrated
Mass for him those last three months.
He taught me and all of us about so
many things.
He taught us about his love for Jesus
because he loved like Jesus.
He lived to do His will.
Not too much of something, not too little
he wanted to do His will.
Here are pictures of Fr. Carter celebrating Mass
in China.

Messenger: He loved to go to China.
He loved the ride down.
He loved the sunny days.
He loved the beauty of nature.
He loved people.
He loved the people of the earth.
From the first time I met him praying
before Our Lady he prayed for all
the souls of the earth, he prayed
fervently for them.
His vision was very broad.
He saw the vision that some day the Sacred
Heart would reign in the hearts of men.
He knew his role in it.
He worked hard to do what Our Lord had
made so clear to him.
He was very directed.
