Matthew 11: 28-30

‘Come to me, all you who labour and are overburdened, and I will give you rest. Shoulder my yoke and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Yes, my yoke is easy and my burden light.’


                R. Come Holy Spirit enlighten my eyes to see
                what You want me to see.

                    The days go by and we work slowly
                just to do whatever it is God calls us
                to do. I offer up my days to you and
                I thank God for another day to be here
                and to do things.

                    We have been praying about the
                postage for Fr. Joe's books. There was
                a problem whether it was a flat or
                a parcel after we have sent it a
                certain way for 8 years and the price
                is 3 times as much. The priests in the
                United States really appreciate this book.
                It has stopped the mailing of the books
                to the priests. We have been praying
                and I ask you to please pray with
                us, so we can resume the mailings.
                We were about to send the New York
                priests.

                    Tomorrow we begin the retreat
                in China and it is really cold here.
                We have priests for Saturday and Monday
                and Tuesday, the 13th.

                    Regina has been pushing all the books
                in Florida outside for a long time so
                we bought a little barn we have to
                assemble so she can leave them outside
                for a while.

                    We really appreciate your praying
                with us, especially on retreat. Jesus
                wants us to set these days aside for
                special prayers January 10th - 13th. So even
                if you can't tune in on the radio please
                pray with us for the priests, the Church and
                the world.

                    Jesus wants us to spread the prayer
                chapters with devotion to the Sacred Heart
                and Immaculate Heart. Also the Holy Spirit
                prayers are really powerful
                and help us when we pray them.

                    I think how cold it is here and how
                warm it was when we went to Florida.
                We enjoyed the warmth in Florida, some
                years the winter in Florida was cold
                there, but it is really cold here.

                    Mary asked us to pray really hard
                and when she appeared she was
                praying with us. We must know that
                she wants us to pray through her
                powerful intercession – Also besides
                knowing the Father, Son and Holy Spirit
                dwell in my graced, baptized soul and are
                with me, I realize my guardian angel
                is always with me. What a gift God
                gives us to give us a guardian angel.

                    We have 24 hour adoration in China
                and Betty and Rosie are always there and
                Sheila and Jerry and Doris, but we could
                use your help in coming in China and
                helping with adoration. Sally Jo and
                Richard help also, but Jesus wants our
                love and it is so special being
                before the exposed Eucharist.

                It is so peaceful there and in Florida
                in the building when you come to pray.
                I know Mary has told us of a life-changing
                grace Jesus gave – every retreat in Florida since
                October. She said Jesus was giving us
                a special grace and told us to pray
                through her powerful intercession –
                I see her praying with us. She appears
                to me – praying – her mouth moves
                and she is praying with us.

                    We set up the Mass room in Florida
                with beautiful chairs – it is so
                beautiful when we have Mass there.
                We have two Masses a month in Florida
                during retreat. Please pray with us
                at home the days 2nd - 5th and 10th - 13th if
                you can't come, but try to come because
                Jesus and Mary give us very special
                favors to help us in our lives.
                Please pray with us for the priests,
                the Church and the world.

                Mary has appeared to me for 20 years.

                    The Blue Book 14 is at the printers,
                God the Father speaks after Clearwater.
                If you study God the Father's messages
                you can really see what gifts they
                are. They tell us what to do. We
                can see through His eyes - why
                God the Father put Mary on the
                building in Clearwater.

                    Fr. Carter took these messages
                very seriously. January 11, 1997
                and January 18, 1997 from Blue Book 14.
                Please pray for Blue Book 14. 

                Please come to the retreat in
                China. The Mass starts on
                the 13th at 12:00 as Jesus
                requested. The Eucharist is
                exposed and we have the
                Epiphany video from Florida
                to give you.

                    Thanks for all your prayers. We
                depend on your prayers. Please, I
                ask, pray about the postage for the
                priests' mailing. We have 22,000 books
                of Fr. Joe's ready to go to the priests in the
                United States and the cycle is about 2 months
                gone already for Cycle B. Please pray
                for our intentions with us.

                    Thanks for your help –

                                    With love

                                        Rita

                Last year at this time we put out

Introduction

     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.

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."

Jesus: My dear chosen one,

It is not what you experience and feel that determines the grace that is released from a heartfelt prayer. It is the disposition of the heart. It is your desire to love your God with your whole heart, your whole soul and your whole being. You will have to fight all attempts of Satan to block your heartfelt prayer. I have allowed you to experience ecstasies to help to record insights into the mysteries of My divine love.

My people, you must focus on your intention to love God with your whole heart, whole soul and whole being. Love is most dynamic, but many times it is so gentle and quiet as the peaceful breeze washing your tender face with love and care. Love can be experienced in the deepest sufferings as when one through anguishing pain watches a loved one slowly deteriorate with life threatening cancer. Love is in the heart, it is not selfish, seeking selfish gain. This love truly is the love the Father wishes you to have. It is the love that is patient with the teenage son, and the love that gives in a marriage which is one-sided. One loves because it is God's will. It is the love that embraces the wailing widow as she cries for relief and you stoop to hear her cries. Love is giving in this Shepherds of Christ Movement tirelessly, morning and night. Some spend hours when no one even knows, praying and talking to others to see that My wishes are done. Love is giving God your feet to wash in obedience when you think it should not be. Love is loving, it is not selfish and demanding, it is giving in service willingly according to the will of God. For what will it matter if you do all these deeds and have a bitter heart? You will miss your greatest reward in that bitterness. God wants conformity to His will in love. Love is being patient when you are tired and hungry and feel like screaming, but instead you pray and try to be as God wishes. To My death on the cross, I was in perfect peace. I am your beloved Savior, the Prince of Peace. My Mother is Queen of Peace. You will experience suffering. Being loving even during suffering helps to release great grace. You must ask to be spread with the Blood of Jesus and cast the devil far from you. You must realize I allow you to suffer. In the Mass you may experience great suffering, wishing to experience great gifts. I give as I see fit. Even when you do not experience special gifts, your suffering helps release great graces if you stay focused on Me and intercede through Mary's Immaculate Heart. When praying, you cannot judge the graces given by your experiences alone. Great graces are released when you must struggle to concentrate on the Mass and on what you are begging the Father to grant you. You must try to maintain a level, peaceful, attitude and ask for grace, tremendous grace, even when you do not feel that you are receiving it. Do not focus on yourselves and all that you want and all you do not have. Focus on the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass when attending Mass even when it is most difficult. Intercede with the priest and all the faithful to the Father. Fight the temptation to be divided with any man. You cannot be divided with men, dead or alive. This will harm your union with Me. Intercede as never before.

January 9, 1996

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 is 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?

                Some Deadly Sins

Matthew 22: 30

For at the resurrection men and women do not marry; no, they are like the angels in heaven.

Philippians 3: 8-14

Yes, I will go further: because of the supreme advantage of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, I count everything else as loss. For him I have accepted the loss of all other things, and look on them all as filth if only I can gain Christ and be given a place in him, with the uprightness I have gained not from the law, but through faith in Christ, an uprightness from God, based on faith, that I may come to know him and the power of his resurrection, and partake of his sufferings by being moulded to the pattern of his death, striving towards the goal of resurrection from the dead. Not that I have secured it already, nor yet reached my goal, but I am still pursuing it in the attempt to take hold of the prize for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not reckon myself as having taken hold of it; I can only say that forgetting all that lies behind me, and straining forward to what lies in front, I am racing towards the finishing–point to win the prize of God’s heavenly call in Christ Jesus.

 

Ephesians 4: 1-6

I, the prisoner in the Lord, urge you therefore to lead a life worthy of the vocation to which you were called. With all humility and gentleness, and with patience, support each other in love. Take every care to preserve the unity of the Spirit by the peace that binds you together. There is one Body, one Spirit, just as one hope is the goal of your calling by God. There is one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one God and Father of all, over all, through all and within all.

   

1 Timothy 2: 5-8

For there is only one God, and there is only one mediator between God and humanity, himself a human being, Christ Jesus, who offered himself as a ransom for all. This was the witness given at the appointed time, of which I was appointed herald and apostle and-I am telling the truth and no lie-a teacher of the gentiles in faith and truth.

    In every place, then, I want the men to lift their hands up reverently in prayer, with no anger or argument.

 

                R. Pride is the vice opposite humility.

                    A prideful man can cheat or lie
                to show others he has a good
                reputation.

                    A prideful man thinks of himself and
                his gifts – he thinks he does things by his power.

                    We are free to choose good or
                evil –

                    We have a free will –

                    We are free.

                    If we use our free will to
                oppose God - we can bring great
                unhappiness upon ourselves.

                    God wants us happy!
                We can choose sin. Sin makes
                us, in the end, unhappy.

 

                Excerpt from Response in Christ by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J. - Chapter 6

SIX    The Christian and Sin (excerpt)

  1. The Nature of Sin

What is the nature of sin? Contemporary theology emphasizes that sin is not primarily a violation of a law, but a disruption of personal relationships. Sin is a refusal to love. Serious sin is a radical refusal to love. Venial sin is a partial refusal to love. 

The most obvious personal relationship that is affected by sin is that between God and the sinner. In sinning a man fails, to a lesser or greater degree, to accept God's loving gift of Himself. He fails also to respond with his own gift of love. In serious sin man refuses intimate friendship with God. In venial sin he dulls the ardor of that friendship. Man, in so far as he sins, maintains that he does not want his life to be directed by the loving hand of his heavenly Father. He wants to be a law for himself; he wants to be the one who decides what is good for himself and what is not. Schoonenberg observes: "Especially in the prophets sin is an aversion from and an unfaithfulness to Yahweh himself; hence it is placed in the heart rather than in the wrong deed. We see that aversion, that rebelliousness, that lack of faith which precede the act of transgressing the Law already in the story of the sin in paradise, where it is presented as the wish of possessing autonomously the knowledge of good and evil, of being independently the Law unto oneself. . .”1 

As we sin and fail to love God, we close in upon ourselves. We prevent a further growth in openness to transcendence, to God and to His grace. We block off the source of our only real self-development and fulfillment. To the extent that we close in upon ourselves in sin, to that extent we feel the misery of sin. This misery of spiritual "self-enclosedness" is a faint participation in the essential pain of hell. The damned are eternally and completely closed in upon themselves, completely deprived of God and other personal relationships. This, then, is hell the damned really experiencing no one but themselves. Hell is God's ratification of the choice which the unrepentant serious sinner has himself made. This choice is one of radical self-isolation. 

Sin is primarily a refusal to love God, a refusal to be loved by Him, to be guided by Him. In sinning, man seeks for a false fulfillment, and therefore actually becomes impoverished. The great St. Augustine puts it this way: "For when the soul loves its own power, it slips from the common whole to its own particular part. Had it followed God as its ruler in the universal creature, it could have been most excellently governed by His laws. But in that apostatizing pride, which is called 'the beginning of sin', it sought for something more that the whole; and while it struggled to govern by its own laws, it was thrust into caring for a part, since there is nothing more than the whole; and so by desiring something more, it becomes less. . .”2

                R. We must control our desires –

                A person unable to control
                    themselves can say –
                    they never have enough –

                Fr. Carter always said
                    Do God's will –
                    not too much, not too little.

                Happiness is in the vision of God –

                Man's desire for food and drink
                    and sex must be controlled as
                    God wishes us to use these
                    appetites.

                Chastity is a virtue –

                Chastity helps man use sex as
                    God intends –

                God has given man a wonderful
                    pleasure in marriage to
                    help propagate the human race –

                Religious are to practice especially
                    the vows of poverty,
                    chastity and obedience –

                Virginity is the way religious
                    abstain from sexual
                    pleasures entirely –

                Virginity in religious mean they
                    are capable of sex,
                    but desire to abstain
                    for their marriage to God.

                We see that this abstinence
                    is for a higher good –

                Marriage to God –

                Lust is a sin against how man
                    uses sex. Lust leads to
                    other sins –
                    The lustful man gives into
                    passions and becomes
                    blind to what he is
                    supposed to do.
                    He is blinded by his desires,
                    He gives into sexual desires.
                    Animals have sexual desires,
                        man is to use sex properly
                        according to God's will,
                        according to his vocation,
                        according to the commandments.

                Man is to control his desires
                    opposed to God's will –

                Meekness is the opposite
                    of combattalness and
                    anger.

                Jesus is meek and tender
                    in Heart –

                A man is humble when he
                    sees himself as he
                    truly is –
                    He does not minimize
                    God's calling to him.

                He does not boast for his own
                    power and glory –

                We need God's grace to have
                    happiness –

                The man who is not humble
                    sees himself as achieving
                    things without God – for
                    the man's honor and glory –

                The humble man prays for
                    God's help!

                A prideful man can be jealous
                    of men doing God's will – for
                    he doesn't like anybody
                    achieving – he feels they
                    challenge how he looks.

                If the proud guy is not up
                    front – he doesn't cooperate
                    or work together with
                    the guy in charge –
                    He sees that guy as a threat
                    to making him look
                    good – he wants to be the
                    best and others see themselves as
                    inferior to him.

                The devil uses pride –

The Father's Will for Us  - Our Source of Peace

  • Pope John Paul II instructs us: "The Church, as a reconciled and reconciling community, cannot forget that at the source of her gift and mission of reconciliation is the initiative, full of compassionate love and mercy, of that God who is love (see 1 John 4:8) and who out of love created human beings (see Wisdom 11:23-26; Genesis 1:27: Psalms 8:4-8)…He created them so that they might live in friendship with Him and in communion with one another.

"God is faithful to His eternal plan even when man, under the impulse of the evil one (see Wisdom 2:24) and carried away by his own pride, abuses the freedom given to him in order to love and generously seek what is good, and (instead) refuses to obey his Lord and Father. God is faithful even when man, instead of responding with love to God’s love, opposes Him and treats Him like a rival, deluding himself and relying on his own power, with the resulting break of relationship with the One who created him. In spite of this transgression on man’s part, God remains faithful in love.

"It is certainly true that the story of the Garden of Eden makes us think about the tragic consequences of rejecting the Father, which becomes evident in man’s inner disorder and in the breakdown of harmony between man and woman, brother and brother (see Genesis 3:12 ff; 4:1-16). Also significant is the Gospel parable of the two brothers (the parable of the ‘prodigal son’; see Luke 15:11-32) who, in different ways, distance themselves from their father and cause a rift between them. Refusal of God’s fatherly love and of His loving gifts is always at the root of humanity’s divisions.

"But we know that God…like the father in the parable (of the prodigal son), does not close His heart to any of His children. He waits for them, looks for them, goes to meet them at the place where the refusal of communion imprisons them in isolation and division. He calls them to gather about His table in the joy of the feast of forgiveness and reconciliation.

"This initiative on God’s part is made concrete and manifest in the redemptive act of Christ, which radiates through the world by means of the ministry of the Church." 13

                R. A man that is humble trusts
                    in God –
                    A man who is prideful
                        trusts in himself –
                        Others should recognize
                        how great he is –
                        he thinks –
                        he is obsessed with his
                        image before all – he
                        will lie and cheat to look
                        good –
                        even cheat and lie –

                Man is to seek truth –

                Not be curious for his own
                    desire to satisfy himself

                Men are made to contribute in
                    salvation history by
                    doing God's will – 

Matthew 24: 35-44

Sky and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. But as for that day and hour, nobody knows it, neither the angels of heaven, nor the Son, no one but the Father alone.

‘As it was in Noah’s day, so will it be when the Son of man comes. For in those days before the Flood people were eating, drinking, taking wives, taking husbands, right up to the day Noah went into the ark, and they suspected nothing till the Flood came and swept them all away. This is what it will be like when the Son of man comes. Then of two men in the fields, one is taken, one left; of two women grinding at the mill, one is taken, one left.

‘So stay awake, because you do not know the day when your master is coming. You may be quite sure of this, that if the householder had known at what time of the night the burglar would come, he would have stayed awake and would not have allowed anyone to break through the wall of his house. Therefore, you too must stand ready because the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

 

Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima

by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

Before Jacinta died, she told of other messages given her (during her illness) by Mary:

    More souls go to Hell because of sins of the flesh than for any other reason.

    Certain fashions will be introduced that will offend Our Lord very much.

    Many marriages are not good; they do not please Our Lord and are not of God.

19. Our Lady's Peace Plan, op cit., p.9-10.
 
 

Romans 6: 2-4, 12-14

Out of the question! We have died to sin; how could we go on living in it? You cannot have forgotten that all of us, when we were baptised into Christ Jesus, were baptised into his death. So by our baptism into his death we were buried with him, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the Father’s glorious power, we too should begin living a new life.

That is why you must not allow sin to reign over your mortal bodies and make you obey their desires; or give any parts of your bodies over to sin to be used as instruments of evil. Instead, give yourselves to God, as people brought to life from the dead, and give every part of your bodies to God to be instruments of uprightness; and then sin will no longer have any power over you—you are living not under law, but under grace.

                   

Matthew 19: 3-6

    Some Pharisees approached him, and to put him to the test they said, 'Is it against the Law for a man to divorce his wife on any pretext whatever?' He answered, 'Have you not read that the Creator from the beginning made them male and female and that he said: This is why a man leaves his father and mother and becomes attached to his wife, and the two become one flesh? They are no longer two, therefore, but one flesh. So then, what God has united, human beings must not divide.'

   

Mark 10: 6-9

But from the beginning of creation he made them male and female. This is why a man leaves his father and mother, and the two become one flesh. They are no longer two, therefore, but one flesh. So then, what God has united, human beings must not divide.'

January 21, 1997

This rosary was received on Tuesday, January the 21st, 1997 at an International Shepherds of Christ Associates Meeting at the Shepherds of Christ Center in Morrow Ohio. The rosary was led by Fr. Edward J. Carter S.J., spiritual director of Shepherds of Christ Ministries at Morrow. The meditations and messages were given to Rita Ring during the rosary. This rosary was received live and transcribed from the recording. All of these meditations have been discerned by Fr. Edward Carter S.J. It was a Tuesday night.

Song: Come Holy Spirit

Glorious Mysteries

God Has Gifted Us in the Shepherds of Christ

The Resurrection

R. Let us offer this rosary for the intentions that Our Lady asked us to pray for, first of all, for the spread of the rosary throughout the world, the rosary aves, the Rosary Books for children, the Mass Books and also for Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, that the plan of the Father will unfold as He has told us that it will, that anyone that He is addressing in these issues will receive the grace, especially to obey the messages that Jesus has given for the unfolding of His plan. So I ask for a special prayer for that purpose. We also ask for this center that the chapel (in Morrow) will proceed according to the Father’s plan, that we will be able to reserve the Blessed Sacrament here, that we will receive major amounts of funding and that we will have the lights to follow whatever it is that the Father wants us to do and also for the Priestly Newsletter, that Fr. Carter receives the inspiration and the ease to accomplish this task soon.

1. Song: Come Holy Spirit

2. R. We see the little baby in Bethlehem and we see above His bed the star. He is the Light of the world. We see our beloved Jesus as He comes forth from the tomb adorned in the brightest light with such brilliance that our eyes could not even take the brightness of the Almighty God. Jesus is the Light of the world.

3. Jesus: So you suffer My beloved ones. I watch you at every second I’m watching everything that you are doing. And you feel so alone so many times but I am by you and I am guarding you and I am watching you. I am telling you at this moment, you must come to the heart of My Mother, for it is there that you will find refuge, that you will be protected against the snares of satan who aims to stop you. You are My children of light. It is through you that the Father’s plan will unfold. You are children of the Father but you are a chosen race. I have chosen you My beloved ones to carry the light into the darkness. You must go to the heart of your Mother. You must give your heart to her.

4. Song: The Rosary Song

Jesus: I love you. I love you. I love you. My beloved ones, open your heart that I may speak to you and you will hear the words, for I am calling you, at this moment for the time is urgent. You must listen and you must pay attention to all that I am saying to you.

5. R. I see how the Father’s plan unfolded in the lives of Jesus and Mary. We see the angel appear to Mary and ask her to be the Mother of God. We see the child is born. We see that the child lived a quiet life and that Jesus went to His death out of greatest love for us. He gave Himself and now we see Him as He comes victorious as He gives to us a sharing in His Divine life.

6. Jesus: My beloved ones, you must go to the heart of your Mother. It is there that you will be protected for the devil aims to stop you. You are the light that I am sending into the dark world. It is through you that many will know Me.

7. R. My beloved Jesus, I try so hard and the devil seems like he presses harder and harder. And so many times he wins, and I am trying so hard to be so close to You. I remember at the Holy Spirit Center, Mary, on August 12th appeared to me and her face was so beautiful and she was adorned in the greatest light. And I looked up at her face and I was crying and upset because of many of the things that were not happening that Our Lord was telling me that needed to happen, and she told me needed to happen. And she told me, she said, “My child, come to my heart.”

8. R. The Almighty God came to this earth a little baby and He gave Himself for love of us. It is today that we carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. The plan of the Father is unfolding and it is unfolding through us. And the Father has communicated to us for He has chosen us as major in bringing about the completion of His plan, in bringing about the completion of the Fatima message. He is telling us of the seriousness of the situation at this time. We must study the messages that He has given to us and read them as from the Almighty God, for He is counting on us. The plan will unfold through the Shepherds of Christ Movement and we are the core members. We are so important, each one of us, to the plan of the Father.

9. R. Jesus rose from the dead, victorious on the third day. We see Him in the passion. We see Jesus, He looks like a man that is suffering. We see Jesus in compliance to the Father’s will. We see Him, He carried the cross on His back. He did not worry about what other people thought about Him. Jesus just did exactly what the Father wanted Him to do. How many times today do we worry about what other people are thinking about us. And we do not do what the Father is telling us to do. Are we even aware of how many times we are thinking about others and how they are sizing us up and so, therefore, we really do not obey? Our life must be lived in doing the Father’s will. We are the teachers that are going into the world that are leading others to His Heart. It is in living according to His will that the Reign of the Sacred Heart will come about.

10. Sing: The Rosary Song

 

        The Ascension

1. R. The first Shepherds of Christ meeting was on a Tuesday night, the last Tuesday in August, and I saw Saint Margaret Mary. She appeared to me in the sanctuary at St. Peter in Chains and she was holding a white book. And as I drove to the Holy Spirit Center that night, Jesus said that the people at the meeting were His apostles that He would send out into this world. We are those apostles. Here we are. From August of 1994 until January of 1997 and the teacher has taught us many things that we will know His ways, that we will go into the world and we will carry His teachings.  He has given to the world these teachings in these rosaries. But He taught them to us. You must be grateful for the gifts that He has given to us.

2. Jesus: And so My beloved ones, the plan of the Father has unfolded. The plan has unfolded as you came to each meeting each week. And I gave to you My teachings, My teachings, My beloved apostles. Think of how it was in August of 1994 and where you were in your spiritual life. Think of how it was when you read the scriptures and you attended the Mass and you went to the Holy Eucharist. Think of how you were in your spiritual life in 1994 and think of how you are this day how My love is burning within your chest, within your heart you know My love. And I have taught to you the intimate secrets of My Heart that have never been taught before. Think of how dry and inactive your love relationship was with Me in 1994. These are My teaching that I am giving to the world to help bring about the Reign of My Most Sacred Heart. The hearts of many will burn when these teachings are released. You must spread My letters of love to the far ends of the earth for men will know Me and they will love Me in such an intimate way. I will be so close to them and My Heart will Reign. I am the King of all Kings. I will Reign in men’s hearts. You must spread the letters I give to you to the far ends of the earth that men will know how much I truly love them. How was your love relationship with Me in 1994 and how is it today? You must not hold on to these writings, My beloved ones. I give them to the world to help bring about the Reign of My Sacred Heart.

3. R. And the Apostles went forth and they carried the good news and many were converted and many knew God. Today, a new era is at hand and you the apostles will go forth and many will know Jesus in an intimate love affair, in a way that man has never known Jesus before. Through these writings that Jesus has given to us. Jesus asks us to circulate these writings to the world, He will write the messages of His love on their hearts. He will write the messages of His love on the hearts of the priests through the Priestly Newsletter that He writes through Fr. Carter. What great gifts we are given for His love truly burns within my heart. And when I go to the Mass I know a little heaven on earth. I love You Jesus and I thank You for the great gifts that You have given to us. You truly are the teacher. And You have made the Word of God live within us as a two-edged sword for we love Your Word and we love You and we love You Jesus, in the Eucharist.

4. R. And look at us little and naïve, look at us before the teachings Jesus revealed to us. Look at how we attended the Mass and went to the Eucharist. And think of the first love letter that Jesus wrote to you in God’s Blue Book. And you heard, you heard Him pour His love out to you. This is the love that He wants the world to know so that His love will burn in their hearts and that His Heart will truly Reign in the hearts of all men. It will not be dry and inactive and sterile. It will be vibrant. Their hearts will pulsate and they will love God with the deepest love.

5. R. And so we see the wounded hearts, the wounded hearts of so many hungry for love. For we are creatures of love created by God the Father to love God and to love one another. And so many do not go to Him or know His love. And the only love that they know is the love that they have received from their parents or from their lovers that did not treat them very nice sometimes. And so their hearts are wounded. Their hearts are in pain and they search a barren desert looking for love to fill their starved soul, and Jesus has given to them the mighty medicine to bind up their wounds, to heal their wounds. And it is His love letters. It is the messages that He has given in Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. For He said in the first message in the Blue Book that My life will be alive in you, that it will live within you. He is alive in our hearts. I heard Him on Ascension Thursday in 1995. After much agony I heard Him calling out, “I am alive. I am alive. I am alive.” Is He alive in our hearts? Is Jesus alive in a way that He never was in our whole life? He is alive because of these teachings that He has given to us. Do we see how our spiritual life has progressed because we have been taught by the teacher, the Almighty God. And it is up to us. He gave us these great gifts and He is asking us to go into the world and to spread these teachings that all hearts will be alive with this burning love inside of them. 

Jesus: You are My apostles that will carry the light into the darkness and the wounded hearts will be healed through the fire of My love. 

6. R. And so we crave love and we want love. And so many today can not find what they are craving in the world and they suffer. They do not know where to go. God the Father said that He is displeased how these writings have been held in check. But they were held in check because the devil did not want them to help lead into the Reign of the Sacred Heart, these are Jesus’ letters that He wants to give to us. He loves us so much. His letters of love written on the hearts of men. And so the devil blocked these letters which would help bring about the Reign of His Most Sacred Heart. We must obey everything that the Father is telling us to do in order to get out the messages that Jesus is giving to us today to help bring about the Reign of His Heart.

7. R. And so God the Father speaks and He says, “You disobeyed My messenger, You disobeyed My Mother and you disobeyed Jesus, Now you will disobey Me?” The time is urgent for the Father has not spoken except on rare occasions and He has spoken now, on Saturday January 11th and Saturday January 18th. But it is a feeling of great relief for there is such power in knowing that the Father is so close to us and that it is His plan that we are trying to spread to this world. 

8. R. Do you feel the oneness of the Father and Jesus? The oneness of the Father and Son and Holy Spirit?  Do you know love radiating from the Trinity? Meditate on the love of God: Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, Three Persons in one God. And meditate on each one of us here. Each one of us, a person, but we are one in Him. We are so close to this burning love of God. Love must reign in our hearts, the burning love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, love for others as ourself. How can we even express what we know of the depth of God's love?

Sing: One Bread, One Body. 

Sing: Give Me Your Heart Oh Jesus

R. Let us meditate on the love of God. Let us feel the presence of God within us. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit dwell in our graced baptized soul. Let us think about God’s love enfolding in us. His love, His presence, filling our whole being as we exist in Him. We are one in Him, in this great love of our beloved God. 
 

Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

    ... In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.

    The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.

    At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ. St. Paul tells us: "I became
a minister of this Church through the commission God gave me to preach among you his word in its fullness, that mystery hidden from ages and generations past but now revealed to his holy ones. God has willed to make known to them the glory beyond price which this mystery brings to the Gentiles—the mystery of Christ in you, your hope of glory. This is the Christ we proclaim while we admonish all men and teach them in the full measure of wisdom, hoping to make every man complete in Christ" (Col 1:25-28).
 

9. R. And so He gives Himself to us, gives Himself to us in the Eucharist. We are filled more and more abundantly with His grace, His life in us. We become more and more one in Him. He gives Himself to me and He gives Himself to you and we become united in such a deep way in Him. This is the unity that He wants for this world. For love is oneness. UNITY, UNITY, UNITY.

10. R. There will be one flock and one shepherd. And this oneness will be known throughout the earth and it will majorly come through the Shepherds of Christ Movement. And as priests read the Priestly Newsletter and the Mass Books (Blue Book 9, Blue Book 10, Blue Book 11, Blue Book 12, Blue Book 13, Blue Book 14) they will realize more and more, the oneness that comes through the Mass, through the Eucharist. For it is all of us being united at every second to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world, that we will be one with each other in such intense love, the love of God. Love is oneness.

Song before the Glory Be: A Song from Jesus

 

        The Descent of the Holy Spirit Upon the Apostles

1. Song: Jesus, I love you. Jesus, I care for you. Jesus, I love you. I want to be with You.

2. R. And so it was on that first day that we came to our Shepherds of Christ meeting as if we were young and were ready to be trained by the Divine Master. And we came to that meeting and He began to tell us, to tell us of His burning love, the love that He has for us, a love that I did not know before He started to write these letters to me. For it was all there before, but I was so blind that I did not know the love that I knew when He started to teach me about Himself in such an intimate way as He did in His letters of love to me.

3. R. And I pray to the Holy Spirit to fill me – to come to me. And the Holy Spirit came to me and I started to feel the fire of God’s love as it would well up within my chest. 

Song: Come Holy Spirit

4. Sing: Come Holy Ghost

9. August 11th, 1994 - I Watched You

Jesus: Oh, how I watched you, child. I watched you as I gave you each little sign of My love. I watched you grow in your faith and trust in Me. I watched you suffer and stood so close you could have touched Me, but you didn't know that this suffering would be that which led you to My tender love for you.

    I watched you when you surrendered and turned your will over to Me and I watched you cry, knowing this was the most joyous day of your life. I watched you see visions of doors and knew you would want to go through those doors, but they were not the doors you thought, they were the doors I gave you for greater union with Me. I watched you, child, when you wrote down My first letter to you and I saw your confusion and joy, knowing what these letters would do to touch so many hearts.

    I watched you, child. I watched you when I showed you My Heart and you were so warmed by this Heart and so awed by its vision, but you didn't know what this vision would mean for many to draw their hearts to My burning love.

    I watched you surrender each time as you let go of each little thing, as you were dying to self. I watched you through this surrender grow closer to Me.

R. And this is the journey that He has taken us on in the Shepherds of Christ Movement and He continues and He says –

August 11th, 1994 - I Watched You continues

Jesus:  I watched you grow in this deep love for Me, step by step. I watched our love grow as you gave more of yourself in prayer. I watched you, child, and I loved being ever closer to you.

    I watched you struggle in such trials that you thought tomorrow would never come, knowing that this trial was what would give you more freedom and love for Me. I watched you learn each lesson through hard tests and I was so close while you struggled, but did not remove the struggle, knowing you would not learn your lesson if I had.

    I watched you, child, through each joy and pain and I loved you silently, always with you, and you never knew how close I truly was to you.

Song: From the Day you were Born

Jesus: From the day you were born, I watched you. Forever by your side, I guarded you, I loved you. I know the most secret desire of your heart far better than you yourself know. I know the Father's plan for you. I know the Father's love for you. I know the love poured on you from the Holy Spirit and how Mary is forever by your side.

    I watch you, child, constantly guarding you and your ways and you do not know the love I have for you. You do not know how My Heart burns for love of you. And, someday, My beautiful child, you will know what I have in store for you, My beloved.

    Come and be with Me. Grow in your love with Me. I never leave you, My beloved. Remember, I am forever watching you.

10. Song: From the Day you were Born

 

        The Assumption of Our Lady into Heaven

1. October the 3rd, 1993, Jesus told me the Talent Message.

Picture of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

Use Your Talents -  October 3, 1993 Chicago Marian Conference 11:30a.m.

Jesus: I have a divine plan for you. I created you with special gifts and talents to be used to do My work. They are not for your own self-promotion. You, My child, are nothing except as I created you. Why try to promote yourself? It is none of your own doing. I gave you the talents you are using. You had nothing to do with it. These talents were given to you to do My work. To use these talents to make yourself feel better than your brother is indeed a sin. You must realize they are loaned to you to work for Me. As you give someone a car, or loan them a place to stay, I loan you your talents to use to work for Me. If you do not work for Me and use them to make yourself better than your brother, you are offending Me. Likewise, if I give you talents and you do not use them because you think you are not as good as your brother, you are not being thankful to Me for My gifts to you. You are not using My gifts and that offends Me greatly. Each person was created by Me to do My work. Each person has all he needs to do My work. To be envious of others is fruitless. They have their job. You have yours. You are not supposed to do their work. That is why you were not given their talents.

Do your own work. Don't be envious of your brothers. Don't hide your talents. You did not earn them. I gave you your talents. You must sing because I will it. Others must do as I will them to do. It displeases Me to give you a gift and watch you hide it and make light of it. I give the gift. You must use all your gifts. They were given to you to do My work. Your brother has his gifts. Be grateful for your brother and he should be for you. You are all chosen by Me for a special mission. You know what to do. It feels right. I plant little seeds in your heart and all you do that is for you in the end feels right. You are not to be doing your brother's work or he yours. Talk to Me that you might know just what your work is and do it.

Do not hide your talents. Praise your God Who gave you these talents. Embrace and use them. This is not pride. This is My plan. I love you. I give to each of you, My precious children, as a mother who buys special Christmas gifts for each child. To buy gifts all the same for all your children is not to respect their specialness, their individuality.

Oh, I love you, little ones, so much. Please come to Me. I am so good and I wait to be with you and share My love with you. Come now. This is your top priority. All else will work when you come to Me first. I love you. You are My chosen children. Come and be filled and I make your loads light and I fill you with the Spirit of Salvation.

All roads that lead to Me are the right roads. Praise Me for I am good and I love you, little dear ones.

2. Hail Mary

3. R. And we see the plan of the Father unfold in the life of Mary. We see the angel come to Mary and ask her to be the Mother of God. And we see Mary as she is taken into heaven. We see all of the days in our life from the beginning when we were born until this time. Do we see ourselves as we came to the first Shepherds of Christ meeting, not really knowing what was going to happen there? But, oh, how our hearts have changed, how He has written the messages of His love on our hearts, how our hearts burn for love of Him. And the greatest of all is, there is more to come that we will know Him more and more, and we will be more and more satisfied with what our hearts crave. 

4. Jesus: Oh children of light, you must dwell in the heart of My Mother for it is there that the Holy Spirit gives to you lights to know and to love Me more. I am Jesus. You must give your hearts to your Mother Mary. It is there that you will feel such love of God. 

5 Jesus: It is there that you will be protected against the evil one.

R. For we see the statues of Mary with her foot on satan. When we give ourselves to Mary, she crushes the head of the serpent. We must realize that we must consecrate ourselves continually all through the day to Mary and ask the Holy Spirit to move in us. The Holy Spirit will be that motivating force within us. It is in Mary’s spiritual womb, Mary’s heart that we are protected from the evil one that we will know peace, that we will be able to go into the world as His apostles, and to carry out this great work that the Father has given to us. For He is the Father. He has spoken to us. He is with us. He has called us. We are the chosen race. It is in doing all that He has told us to do that we will help greatly in bringing about the Reign of the Sacred Heart. Jesus is the King of all Kings and Jesus will Reign in the hearts of the beloved children on this earth.

6. R. Think of the altar and the tabernacle, how majestic and beautiful it is. Jesus is the King of all Kings. Jesus is on His throne in the tabernacle. We want to make Jesus the King and Center of our hearts. "Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name." Now listen to this. "Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done." Thy Kingdom come. The Reign of the Sacred Heart is at hand. Thy Kingdom come and it will only happen when men are obeying the will of the Father. When we are living according to the Father’s will, there will not be any bumping of heads. Thy Kingdom come. "Oh Father, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."

7. R. And the children of light were brought forth from the womb of their Mother. And she appeared there at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center as Our Lady of Light. For it is there that the children of light were to go forth and to go into the world. It is through the Shepherds of Christ Movement as we give our hearts to Mary and to Jesus that we will truly be the lights that are shining in the darkness. For He has given to us great gifts and He has taught us. The Divine teacher has taught us individually in these Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, secrets into His Heart that He has never shared before. And think of how Jesus feels that He has opened up His Heart to us, and to such intimacies and to such an outpouring of His intimate love. And think of how His love letters have been treated and rejected. How would we feel if we open our heart to a lover and they do not accept the gift of ourselves. Think of Jesus. He gives to us the intimate secrets of His Heart and He is rejected by many. The Father is displeased that these letters have not been circulated. We are the children of light. We must carry these messages of His love to the wounded hearts that are suffering, that are bleeding and they will be mended with the fire of His love. The messages of His love will be written on their hearts where the wounds once were and they will be healed. And the Sacred Heart of Jesus will Reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will Triumph. And the children of light will be children that will shine brilliantly in what once was a dark world.

8. Song: Oh Lady of Light

R. On August the 12th Mary appeared the entire night and I looked up into her beautiful face as I whined and cried and begged and laid on the floor because I wanted so much for God to hear my plea. And Mary said to me, “My child, come to my heart.”

9. R. And the children of light were protected from the evil one and she smited the dragon. And those that survived were the children of light, the ones that were obedient to Mary. For she appeared, the Father allowed her to appear. How do you think the Father feels about Mary appearing and us ignoring and disobeying our Mother? The fourth commandment says that we must obey our mother. Is the Father going to reward us with gifts? Is He going to reveal Himself to us if we are disobeying what our Mother has told us? The children of light will know God in a way as no other children. The others will remain blind. It is only in doing what Mary said at Fatima, that is giving our heart to Mary that we will know, that we will see light, that the Holy Spirit will work in the heart of Mary and we will see lights that we have never seen before. 

10. Mary: My little children of light, I bid you to come to my heart.

 

        The Coronation of Our Lady 

1. Song: Oh Lady of Light

R. The light will steal across the sky and the earth will be covered with intense light as hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. 

Revelation 12: 1  And there appeared in the sky a woman clothed as the sun, the moon under her feet and there were twelve stars about her head.

2. R. And men will see with a light that is brighter than seven suns. The moon will be bright as the sun as we give our hearts to Our Lady, the woman clothed with the sun. The Holy Spirit works within her womb and we see such lights and we know God, our Almighty God, in a way that we did not know before. Men are blind and they do not see. Mary has told us exactly what we must do but we disobey our Mother. Will the Father give us gifts when we are disobedient to our Mother?

3. R. “You disobeyed My messenger. You disobeyed My Mother. You disobeyed My Son. And will you disobey Me?” This is what the Father says in the message on January 18th.
 

From Fatima Peace Plan — Tan Books p.4-5. 

July 13, 1917

THE CHILDREN SEE HELL

    As she spoke these words, Our Lady stretched out her hands, and bright rays came forth which seemed to penetrate into the earth. All at once the ground vanished, and the children found themselves standing on the brink of a sea of fire. As they peered into this dreadful place, the terrified youngsters saw huge numbers of devils and damned souls. The devils resembled hideous black animals, each filling the air with despairing shrieks. The damned souls were in their human bodies and seemed to be brown in color, tumbling about constantly in the flames and screaming with terror. All were on fire within and without their bodies, and neither devils nor damned souls seemed able to control their movements. They were tossing about in the flames like fiery coals in a furnace. There was never an instant's peace or freedom from pain.

 

4. R. And the plan of the Father will unfold. The Father has told us through the Shepherds of Christ Movement that He is behind these messages, that He is behind the writings He has given in God’s Blue Book and the Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and the writings that He has given to Father Carter especially in the Priestly Newsletter to help renew the Church. We indeed have received such great gifts from heaven. And we must be so grateful and obedient as little children always trying to please their Father, always trying to love their Mother and to do what their Mother tells them to do. 

5. R. For we are the children of the woman clothed with the sun. We are the children of light for we have indeed given our hearts to the heart of Mary. But we see that so many times we still seem to fall and give in to the tauntings of satan. We must, all through the day, give our heart to Mary. We must realize that it is in giving our heart to Mary that she crushes the head of the serpent. 

6. Mary: I am bringing forth my children of light in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. You will walk into this dark world and you will carry the light of My Son in the darkness. And all will know how God is alive and the great gift that He has given to man, the gift that man has rejected, the Son of God. 

R. He is alive and we treat Him as a dead object. Look at how willful and disobedient man is this day. The Father has spoken because He is serious. His plan is about to unfold. And we are the ones that He has called in the Shepherds of Christ Movement to be the leaders to lead the light in the darkness.

7. R. And the children of darkness and the children of light walked next to each other. But only the children of light survived the attacks of the devil.

8. R. Mary is the woman clothed with the sun. Mary is Queen of heaven and earth. Mary was chosen by the Father to be the Mother of His Son. Mary is the pure and the sinless one, the spotless Virgin, highest human person. And Mary comes to warn sinful men of the deeds that they do and they ignore their Mother. Eighty years later she has spoken to us. Mary has called us, the children of light, and she has asked us to carry the light into the darkness.

Mary: My beloved children, I am your Mother Mary. I am asking you to make the connection with my appearance in Florida with these messages. I am asking you to do all that you can to spread these messages and to connect them with my apparition on the building in Florida. I am your Mother Mary. I have appeared on the building that men will take notice, that men will come to the heart of My Son.

9. Mary: I am the Queen of Heaven and earth, and I give to you my message in the Mary message tape. I am asking you to circulate my message to the world that my children will come to my heart and they will be children of light.

10. Mary: Oh my little children, many will lose their souls. I am asking you as the Queen of Heaven and earth to heed my wishes. My little children of light, you are given such gifts. Be grateful to God the Father for what He has given to you for His plan is unfolding around the Shepherds of Christ Movement. I am Mary your Mother. You are my children of light who will light up a dark world.

Message before the Glory Be:

Song: From the Day you were Born

Jesus: My beloved ones and here you are this day in January 1997. Think of how you were when you came to the first Shepherds of Christ meeting. Think of how you were in your spiritual life. Think of how I have given to you great gifts and you have blossomed and you are so close to My Heart. You must carry these letters out into the world. You must do all that you can to lead men to My Heart for these are My writings given here, secrets to lead men to the inner most part of My Heart. I have taught you about Myself in a way that I have not given in all human history. I have called you the chosen ones. I have given to you great gifts and I am asking you to spread these writings to the world that they will know how much I love them, and that they too will intimately love Me. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus and My Heart will Reign. There will be an era of peace. I am King of the Kingdom.

Song: A Voice Cries out in the Wilderness

"Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."

Meditation at the end of rosary:

R. And Jesus taught us to pray. Jesus told us to pray, “Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.”
