Galatians 5: 18-25
But when you are led by the Spirit, you are not under
the Law.
When self–indulgence is at work the results are
obvious: sexual vice, impurity, and sensuality, the worship of false gods
and sorcery; antagonisms and rivalry, jealousy, bad temper and quarrels,
disagreements, factions and malice, drunkenness, orgies and all such
things. On the other hand the fruit of the Spirit is
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, trustfulness, gentleness
and self–control; no law can touch such things as these. All who belong
to Christ Jesus have crucified self with all its passions and its desires.
Since we are
living by the Spirit, let our behaviour be guided by the Spirit
Luke 11: 42-46
But alas for you
Pharisees, because you pay your tithe of mint and rue and all sorts of
garden herbs and neglect justice and the love of God! These you should
have practised, without neglecting the others. Alas for you Pharisees,
because you like to take the seats of honour in the synagogues and to be
greeted respectfully in the market squares! Alas for you, because you are
like the unmarked tombs that people walk on without knowing it!’
A
lawyer then spoke up. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘when you speak like this
you insult us too.’ But he said, ‘Alas for you lawyers as well,
because you load on people burdens that are unendurable, burdens that you
yourselves do not touch with your fingertips.

Jesus speaks: Oh the
morning comes as a
package to be opened —
a night of suffering, pain,
sleep, peace — whatever gives
way to get another morning —
Will this day find you carrying
your bags of bitterness —
I give you so many gifts for which
many do not thank Me
They give into satan — they let
him control their thoughts —
If you reached for light you would
do just this —
reach for light, for beauty — but
your bitterness hangs on like a
vendetta one must pay you —
and you miss the gifts I
send —
you try to control what I want
to do, by your anguishing pain.
I am Jesus —
My Mother appeared all through
the 20th Century —
you are gifted —
you do not focus on Me, but on
yourselves
When I sent every messenger — they
were surrounded by jealousy —
Clean your hearts and let me do My
work — let Me send My
message ———
These messages are for the
world —
Do you even think of that?

Excerpt October 13, 1996 Rosary
Jesus speaks: I am calling you, My
special apostles, to this farm on this day of October 13th, 1996. I will
fill your hearts with the fire of My love, and the fire of this love will
spread across the earth and many hearts will know My love and be touched
through you. Open wide your heart during this rosary that I may speak to
you and tell you of My burning love for you. I am giving to you an
abundant sharing in My life. Open your heart. I am knocking at the door of
your heart. You must not close your heart. Open wide that I can come in
and fill you with My divine love.
Excerpt October 13, 1996 Rosary
Oh, My beloved Jesus, I see You glistening
and covered in white. I know that You rose on the third day and that there
is such glory in the resurrection. My life is a constant death and
resurrection as I live in You.
Jesus speaks:
LISTEN TO ME
Excerpt October 13, 1996 Rosary
Focus on the body of a man hanging on the cross. You see
this vividly before your eyes-a man covered with blood, His head crowned
with thorns. He is beaten and withered. This is the Almighty God, Jesus
Christ, the Son of God, who came and gave Himself for love of us. Focus on
this picture in your mind. Make it so clear as if you were there, as if
you are seeing this with your eyes, at this moment, this man on the cross,
with flesh covered with blood. Jesus died. He was locked in a tomb for
three days. Now see next to this picture of this man the glorified body of
Jesus, His glorified wounds, as He comes forth from the tomb. The Almighty
God, our beloved and loving Jesus-He is alive, He is with us this day. He
lives in us in a special way. When we are baptized and in the state of
grace, God is alive within us and He shares with us His divine life. We
are Christ to one another for He is alive in us.
When I talk to you, I am seeing the Jesus that is alive inside of you. We
are all gathered as one body. We see Jesus. We see Him dead on the cross.
This is how much that He loved us. Do we not know that He died for us
because of this great love, that He wants us to be one body? I see the
vine and the branches and I see how they are so connected that the life
and the fluid runs through the vine to the branches-it's all one. We are
one in Him. He has given us a sharing in His divine life. Look at us, how
separate we are with each other, how we hold ourselves at arm's length and
separate ourselves from one another. We are called in the Shepherds of
Christ Movement to be one flock with one shepherd.
The Almighty God is alive and He lives in us. I went to Mass and Communion
this morning and I received the Body of Christ; you receive the Body of
Christ. He gives to us His life. He gives to us Himself. We must strive in
this Movement to be one, to live this consecration in our lives that we
are one with each other, that we put aside all of the tauntings by the
devil to divide us, that we realize that division is from Satan. As we
march across this United States and this world, we will carry the fire of
His love, alive inside of us, for He is alive and He lives within our
hearts. We are called to this special mission as His apostles to carry
this message, this message of His love to the world.
Oh, Jesus, how tenderly I love you. You are alive in my very being. You
are all that I live for and I want to carry this message out to the world
for you have delivered this message with such love. You are so good. Fill
our hearts with the fire of Your love and give us Your abundant grace that
we will have the courage to carry this message to the ends of the earth.
And there was darkness. I see the darkness in the night, but the light
steals across the sky and the fire of His love spreads across this earth
as His life lives in us and many are touched by the fire of His love.

Jesus speaks: Remember the Apostles —
Judas was a traitor —
you are a weak human race —
a company of stiffs —
self focused and without error —
so you think —
I have sent My Mother and have come
Myself as a messenger to this
world.
Oh you of clogged hearts, many so
self-focused —
I sent Mary to appear in Clearwater and
some focused on themselves and their
bags of bitterness —
Can you never get above yourself,
your pride, your need to control —
to listen to God —
Does that not tell YOU of your need
to control, your pride and jealousy —
When I call — you use Me as an excuse
to do what you want and then you are
"put out" because the messenger
considers to deliver My message —
Oh that I could speak to you and you would
listen, but you are clogged like
cement with a will to match and no
one can get passed your thickness
to purely say —
God has spoken — this is what He says
Clear water may look like a mirror — crystal —
smooth and peaceful —
But the hurricanes raged, the sea spit
back the poison you have thrown at Me
in the name of serving Me —
Some are so ego-tistical
And now I speak of the crystal waters,
the glass like, smoothness of one
who listens and is taught, who serves
Me, rather than those who choose to
do their own wills and control
Sheep are white and wooly — have you seen
a dirty one —
What if the sheep were so brazen as you to
say I am so white and wooly and they
were covered with debris —
you would say — oh you are a lying
sheep — you are dirty and not so white
at all, and would say —
The road was before you, straight and narrow
and when satan lured you with pride
and jealousy — your eyes became
covered and you went on the road
that was falling in the sea.
You have seen the road to China
it is falling down —
How many roads do you travel
like this as a matter of choice
to fill your sick needs and pull
a trail of cars behind you —
When I gave you blue skies —
and the lady appeared in rainbow
color — you focused on yourself —
and your pride and your problems —
I watched you like a pitiful child crying
for a bottle — over and over again —
you don't help Me — you fight Me —
how many daily messages have you
blocked —
messages I wanted to give to the world —
Did you see children a play — aggravating
their mother?
You are weak, giving into satan and blocking
what I am trying to tell you —
Most messages of late have not gotten out
of Cincinnati —
So you don't want Me to address this so you
can carry on —
you have carried on and I've tried to do
My work in the Shepherds of Christ despite your
antics and I cry to all of you —
I come, I died —
Souls are at stake and you
think only of yourself — you give
into satan — you think of yourselves
on 5ths, 13ths, hurricanes — what
could shake you —
pride, jealousy, impurity —
you give into satan
I am God —
I speak here —
finally I deliver a message —
you think you own things, people —
you use My Movement for your
selfish pursuits
Stop it now —
It is the 87th anniversary of
Mary's appearance at Fatima —
only 13 years left to the 100 years
How could you deliver a message of
peace?
Don't give into the devil —
I give you a free will

Excerpt from the Spirituality of Fatima
by Father Edward Carter, S.J.
October 13, 1917
On October 13, 1917, there were more than 70,000
people gathered in the Cova da Iria in Fatima, Portugal. They had come to
observe a miracle which had been foretold by the Blessed Virgin to three
young visionaries: Lucia dos Santos, and her two cousins, Jacinta and
Francisco Marto. (1) Shortly after noon, Our Lady appeared to the three
visionaries:
As the Lady was about to leave, she pointed to the
sun. Lucy excitedly repeated the gesture, and the people looked into the
sky. The rain had ceased, the clouds parted, and the sun shone forth, but
not in its usual brilliance. Instead, it appeared like a silver disc, pale
as the moon, at which all could gaze without straining their eyes.
Suddenly, impelled by some mysterious force, the disc began to whirl in
the sky, casting off great shafts of multicolored light. Red, green, blue,
yellow, violet—the enormous rays shot across the sky at all angles,
lighting up the entire countryside for many miles around, but particularly
the upturned faces of those 70,000 spellbound people.
After a few moments the wonder stopped, but resumed
again a second and a third time—three times in all—within about 12
minutes. It seemed that the whole world was on fire, with the sun spinning
at a greater speed each time.
Then a gasp of terror rose from the crowd, for the
sun seemed to tear itself from the heavens and come crashing down upon the
horrified multitude.... Just when it seemed that the ball of fire would
fall upon and destroy them, the miracle ceased, and the sun resumed its
normal place in the sky, shining forth as peacefully as ever.
When the people arose from the ground, cries of
astonishment were heard on all sides. Their clothes, which had been
soaking wet and muddy, now were clean and dry. Many of the sick and
crippled had been cured of their afflictions. (2)

Messenger:
One Flock
One Shepherd
This is our mission for this world.
Jesus speaks: You
are jealous and prideful and impure
that is why you do not grow.
Purity of intentions — how
pure are your intentions
when you act?
What is your motive?
Is it for yourself?
Are you giving into satan?
Read 1 John 1
John baptized Jesus —
"This is My beloved Son in whom
I am well pleased?
Jesus speaks: Will you be transformed —
do you think of holiness?
Ezekiel 34: 11-16
“For the Lord Yahweh
says this: Look, I myself shall take care of my flock and look after it. As
a shepherd looks after his flock when he is with his scattered sheep, so
shall I look after my sheep. I shall rescue them from wherever they have
been scattered on the day of clouds and darkness. I shall bring them back
from the peoples where they are; I shall gather them back from the countries
and bring them back to their own land. I shall pasture them on the mountains
of Israel, in the ravines and in all the inhabited parts of the country. I
shall feed them in good pasturage; the highest mountains of Israel will be
their grazing ground. There they will rest in good grazing grounds; they
will browse in rich pastures on the mountains of Israel. I myself shall
pasture my sheep, I myself shall give them rest–declares the Lord Yahweh.
I shall look for the lost one, bring back the stray, bandage the injured and
make the sick strong. I shall watch over the fat and healthy. I shall be a
true shepherd to them."
Excerpt from October 13, 1996 Rosary
The Resurrection
1. Jesus has told us how He is the vine and we are the
branches. We must stay rooted in Him so that His life flows through us. We
cannot become disconnected from the vine. We are one, joined with Him.
2. Hail Mary...
Song: Spirit Song
6. We are not like the world, we see this world and it is
Godless. In many cases the world has turned away from God. It is at Fatima
that Mary said that we must stop offending God. She has given to us the
peace plan that we will have peace on this earth-it is in consecrating our
hearts. She said until a sufficient number have consecrated their hearts
to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary we will not have peace in the world. She
said we must pray the rosary, that we must observe the First Saturday
devotion, that we must make reparation to Their Hearts. Why-why do we not
do what Mary is asking us to do. It is so simple?
7. Mary appeared at Fatima in July, 1917 and she told the
children, "You have seen hell, where the souls of poor sinners go. To
save them God wishes to establish in the world devotion to my Immaculate
Heart. If people do what I tell you, many souls will be saved and there
will be peace. The war (World War I then raging) is going to end, but if
people do not stop offending God, another and worse one will begin in the
reign of Pius XI. When you shall see a night illuminated by an unknown
light (January 2, 1938) know that this is a great sign that God gives you
that He is going to punish the world for its many crimes by means of war,
hunger and persecution of the Church and the Holy Father."1
Mary has appeared to me, almost every day from July the 5th of 1994 until
September the 5th of 1995-14 months-this same cry that came from our
Heavenly Mother at Fatima, that we must quit offending God, that we must
do what she is telling us to do. This is the peace plan. He is alive and
He lives in us. We are being asked to go into the world and to spread His
love to the far corners of the earth.
8. He gives to us His life in the Eucharist. Who are we that
the Almighty God gives to us, human persons, a sharing in His Divine Life.
He is treated with such indifference and such neglect. If we knew, if we
could see, the glories of the Almighty God, but we are so blind in our
sight. We do not see and we do not hear. We must pray for the grace that
we will see, that we will be the apostles that He is calling to carry this
message out to the world.
9. He rose from the dead and He appeared to the apostles. We
see Thomas-he did not believe. How are we this day? Do we believe? The
Almighty God is truly present in His Divinity and humanity in the Holy
Eucharist and He is outpouring His grace, His life to us. Do we believe?
Do we believe that He is truly present and that He is giving Himself to us
this day? He is here! He is truly present in the Eucharist and He is alive
in our hearts!
10. He laments and laments how He is treated as a dead
object. He is ignored in the Tabernacle.
The Almighty God is here. We spend all this money and go to concerts, go
to football games, all this time in recreation and the Almighty God is
ignored. Mary appeared in 1917 and said that we must stop offending God.
Look at our world. He has called us in the Shepherds of Christ Movement
and is giving to us abundant grace that we will grow more and more in our
relationship with Him and we will be His leaders going into this world
carrying the fire of His love to the far corners of the earth.
He is alive. He says, I am the Way, the Truth and the Life and I am with
you this day. Open your eyes and see. Open your hearts and live for I AM
the Way, the Truth and the Life.

Jesus speaks: I
have given you the
painted trees once
again, the sunlit
morning — the waters
smooth as glass and
you do not recognize
the gifts I have given you.
Remember Palm Sunday
Psalm 22: 1, 8-9, 16-20, 23-24
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
‘He trusted himself to Yahweh, let Yahweh set him
free!
Let him deliver him, as he took such delight in him.’
It was you who drew me from the womb
and soothed me on my mother’s breast.
A pack of dogs surrounds me,
a gang of villains closing in on me
as if to hack off my hands and my feet.
I can count every one of my bones,
while they look on and gloat;
they divide my garments among them
and cast lots for my clothing.
Yahweh, do not hold aloof!
My strength, come quickly to my help,
rescue my soul from the sword,
the one life I have from the grasp of the dog!
‘You who fear Yahweh, praise him!
All the race of Jacob, honour him!
Revere him, all the race of Israel!’
For he has not despised
nor disregarded the poverty of the poor,
has not turned away his face,
but has listened to the cry for help.
Philippians 2: 6-11
Who, being in the form of God,
did not count equality with God
something to be grasped.
But he emptied himself,
taking the form of a slave,
becoming as human beings are;
and being in every way
like a human being,
he was humbler yet,
even to accepting death,
death on a cross.
And for this God raised him high,
and gave him the name
which is above all other names;
so that all beings
in the heavens, on earth
and in the underworld,
should bend the knee at the name of Jesus
and that every tongue should acknowledge
Jesus Christ as Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.
Sing: Psalm 23
Jesus speaks: I am
a God of miracles —
John
2: 1-10
On the third day there was a wedding at
Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there, and Jesus and his
disciples had also been invited. And they ran out of wine, since the wine
provided for the feast had all been used, and the mother of Jesus said to
him, ‘They have no wine.’ Jesus said, ‘Woman, what do you want from
me? My hour has not come yet.’ His mother said to the servants, ‘Do
whatever he tells you.’ There were six stone water jars
standing there, meant for the ablutions that are customary among the Jews:
each could hold twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to the servants,
‘Fill the jars with water,’ and they filled them to the brim. Then he
said to them, ‘Draw some out now and take it to the president of the
feast.’ They did this; the president tasted the water, and it had turned
into wine. Having no idea where it came from—though the servants who had
drawn the water knew—the president of the feast called the bridegroom
and said, ‘Everyone serves good wine first and the worse wine when the
guests are well wined; but you have kept the best wine till now.’

A MEDITATION ON TWO STANDARDS
The one of Christ, our supreme leader
and lord,
the other of Lucifer, the deadly enemy of our
human nature
PRAYER. The usual preparatory prayer.

|
window at a former Jesuit
Seminary
|
137. FIRST PRELUDE. This is the
history. Here it will be that Christ calls and wants all beneath His standard,
and Lucifer, on the other hand, wants all under his.
138. SECOND PRELUDE. This is a
mental representation of the place. It will be here to see a great plain,
comprising the whole region about Jerusalem, where the sovereign
Commander-in-Chief of all the good is Christ our Lord; and another plain about
the region of Babylon, where the chief of the enemy is Lucifer.
139. THIRD PRELUDE. This is to
ask for what I desire. Here it will be to ask for a knowledge of the deceits
of the rebel chief and help to guard myself against them; and also to ask for
a knowledge of the true life exemplified in the sovereign and true Commander,
and the grace to imitate Him.
FIRST PART
THE STANDARD OF SATAN
140. FIRST POINT. Imagine you
see the chief of all the enemy in the vast plain about Babylon, seated on a
great throne of fire and smoke, his appearance inspiring horror and terror.
141. SECOND POINT. Consider how
he summons innumerable demons, and scatters them, some to one city and some to
another, throughout the whole world, so that no province, no place, no state
of life, no individual is overlooked.
142. THIRD POINT. Consider the
address he makes to them, how he goads them on to lay snares for men and bind
them with chains. First they are to tempt them to covet riches (as Satan
himself is accustomed to do in most cases) that they may the more easily
attain the empty honors of this world, and then come to overweening pride.
The first step, then, will be
riches, the second honor, the third pride. From these three steps the evil one
leads to all other vices.
SECOND PART
THE STANDARD OF CHRIST
143. In a similar way, we are to
picture to ourselves the sovereign and true Commander, Christ our Lord.
144. FIRST POINT. Consider
Christ our Lord, standing in a lowly place in a great plain about the region
of Jerusalem, His appearance beautiful and attractive.
145. SECOND POINT. Consider how
the Lord of all the world chooses so many persons, apostles, disciples, etc.,
and sends them throughout the whole world to spread His sacred doctrine among
all men, no matter what their state or condition.
146. THIRD POINT. . . .

Transfiguration —
Jesus speaks: Will
you be like the dirty
sheep saying you are clean?
Are you lying to yourself?
Excerpt from October 13, 1996 Rosary
Our Lord Ascends Into Heaven
- He took His apostles out to the place of His Ascension
and He raised His arms and He ascended into heaven. Do we see the glories
of these mysteries, that the Almighty God rose from the dead, that He
ascended into heaven? We do not see the glory. We are so focused on the
details in our lives. We see with such limited vision. The Almighty God is
alive and He is here and He is calling us. Each one of us has been called
to this farm, this day, for He knew you would answer this calling. He knew
that in your heart you want the deepest love affair with Him, that you
want to be one with Him. He has called you as His apostles to carry out
His love to the world, to light up the darkness with His life alive within
us.
- We look out and we see the beauty of this day, with the
sun in the sky and the light, and all the colors in the trees. We see the
life in each blade of grass and in each leaf on the tree and tonight the
darkness will cover this earth and although the trees and the leaves are
still there, and this beautiful river, we will not be able to see with
this clarity. The earth this day is covered with darkness for many souls
have cut themselves off from the vine. They are withering and dying in
their hearts. He is calling us and giving us abundant grace that we will
be one in Him, that He will live in us, and as we live on this earth, He
will touch others through us. This is a tremendous calling from the
Almighty God-that we have been chosen and called and given this grace to
be so close to Him.
- Song: A Song From Jesus
- Song: Little Child
- Hail Mary...
- On Ascension Thursday, 1995, I went through such an
experience. First, Jesus took me to the height of heaven and I experienced
such ecstasy. I was at church and later that day when I went home I was
given great anguish and suffering and He called out, "I am alive, I
am alive, I am alive!" and He said that He wanted Fr. Carter in the
Shepherds of Christ Movement to reach the souls on this earth with the
fire of His love. It was in such pain and suffering that I was buckled
over and hearing the Almighty God call out, "I am alive, I am alive,
I am alive". How do we treat Jesus? Do we treat Him as if He is
alive? Do we love Him with all our heart, our whole soul and our whole
being? Do you hear the laments of our beloved Savior, the Almighty God,
who gave Himself and died on the cross? He is alive. He wants this burning
love affair with us. Many of the Masses, many of our prayers, are said
with lack of emotion in our hearts. He wants us to love Him with the
deepest burning love, not to go through the motions. Every prayer is a
love affair with our beloved Savior. The Rosary we sing-(the Rosary song),
and He wants us to say from our heart, the bottom of our heart,
"Jesus, we love You. Mary, we love you. Oh, the Rosary, the Rosary,
is the love of Their Two Hearts. Oh the Rosary, the Rosary, is the love of
Their Two Hearts."
In the September 10th rosary that we circulated to you, Jesus laments how
He does not receive a drop of heartfelt love from many of His beloved
religious that He has chosen and loves so much. This is why He has called
us in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, to pray, to pray for His beloved
religious. He loves them so much and He wants, He wants this burning love
from them, His chosen ones. We are gathered here for this reason-to
realize that the Almighty God really is talking to us, that He has called
us, that this is an important mission, that we need to pray so fervently
for our priests and our religious, that this is His instrument, the
Shepherds of Christ Movement, to help in the renewal of the Church and the
world.
- Jesus speaks:
I am alive, I am alive, I am alive, and I live in your heart. Open
your heart and let Me come inside of you. I want to touch My beloved souls
this day. Will you say "yes" to this calling? Will you go to the
ends of the earth and spread this movement? Will you pray, pray fervently
for this intention: to lead the religious to the fires of love, found in
My Most Sacred Heart?
- Song: Spirit Song
Jesus speaks:
I am alive, I am alive, I am alive, and I live in your hearts.
Response:
Jesus no longer walks this earth, but He is alive and He lives in us.
- Song: "Come Unto Me All Who Are Weary.."
Jesus speaks:
I am alive, I am alive, I am alive, and I am the Almighty God, all
powerful. You see with such limited vision. You must surrender and let go
and let Me run your life. You are holding on, My beloved ones. You must
realize that I am all powerful, all mighty, and that I am guarding you and
I am with you in a special way this day.
- Jesus speaks:
Carry My light into the darkness.
Response:
And the light came across the dark sky and many were touched with the fire
of His love.
Because you answered this call, the call to be His apostle, to pray for
the priests, to help spread the consecration as Our Lady has asked us at
Fatima. We will not have peace in the world until our hearts are filled
with love, and she says until a sufficient number have consecrated their
hearts to the hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace. This is
the good news. As the Movement spreads across this earth, as hearts are
consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will have the peace that
Our Lady has promised at Fatima but we must do as she has told us to do.
We must consecrate our hearts and spread this to the world. We must pray
the rosary, observe the First Saturday devotion, and make reparation to
Their Hearts.
Dear Holy Spirit
Please help us

My dear friends,
I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with
you
in love. In these troubled times of the election and war
and wonders of peace — we have suffered many hurricanes
since Mary's image head was knocked off.
Florida appeared
to be squeezed like a wet wash cloth
August 13, 2004 a hurricane, September 5, 2004 another hurricane,
September 13, 2004 another hurricane. Jesus sent me to Florida last
Thursday to take the path across Florida, 60 and 70 to bless
the state before the hurricane. It was terrible — I was on
the west side all through it. On September 5th I was in the building
in Clearwater and on August 13, 2004 the hurricane was averted as
we prayed in China.
Mary's message of peace must be sent to the
priests.
A Jesuit with the blessing of his provincial and his rector has
completed the Priestly Newsletter — he studied in Rome and can
teach in the Pontifical Colleges — The Newsletter is literally a
work of art dedicated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary based on
the Word and the writings of the Church. It will be a special
issue and surprise to you. It is ready to go to 75,000 priests.
We need at least $7,000 for the postage in the United States and
then the foreign mailing. It can really help the world in
these decisive times before the election.
October 13, 2004 is the 87th anniversary of
Mary's last apparition
at Fatima. We need to make reparation to God for how Mary's
image was destroyed. We are about to put protection over Jesus'
face which is costly. Please we desperately need your help to do this.
MARY IS THE QUEEN OF PEACE — spreading the consecration
to the 2 Hearts to 75,000 priests can help the peace of this world.
LOVE in Their Hearts, Rita

We
have had many trials in
Florida
.
Mary appeared 7 years every day before her image head was knocked off.
We pray from
Clearwater
and all our centers for the priests the Church and the world united on the
internet and with many others.
Fr. Carter our founder circulated the Priestly Newsletter for over 8
years.
A Jesuit of over 40 years and who can teach in the Gregorian colleges
in
Rome
and all pontifical colleges has written the new Priestly Newsletter to
continue the work Jesus gave to Fr. Carter 10 years ago. Fr. Carter died.
The day he
accepted was Pentecost Eve - here is the picture taken.
At
6:20
our prayer time. He accepted with the blessing of his provincial and rector.
Here is a message from Jesus to Fr. Carter when Fr. Carter began the
Newsletter that finally went to 85,000 priests.
July 31, 1994
Words of Jesus to Members of Shepherds of Christ
Associates:

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

Pray For The
Success Of The Priestly Newsletter - Shepherds of Christ
Messenger: The following is the first official
message I received before the statue of Mary at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit
Center. It is a personal message for Father Carter.
Mary speaks: (in front of the glowing statue of Our
Lady of Sorrows) I am the Immaculate Heart. My Heart is glowing for love of
all my beloved children. I am your most loving Mother. I am with you this day.
Pray for the success of the priestly newsletter Shepherds of Christ. I am
guarding your way. You will receive such graces to accomplish this task! Grace
from God is so abundantly bestowed on you and will lead to the success of this
endeavor! Pray for this cause at the Center. The priests will lead the people
to the love of My beloved Son. This is no little task. It will take many
prayers and graces. Pray hard, little one. Your prayers will change many
hearts.
I am Mary, your Immaculate Mother. I bring this message to
My beloved priest-son.

message
God
the Father speaks:
I sent Mary as a messenger to
you --
You ignored her
You defaced the rainbow image
Remember Noah's arch --
Remember the sign of the rainbow
Genesis
9: 12-15
And this’, God said, ‘is the sign of the covenant which I now make
between myself and you and every living creature with you for all ages
to come: I now set my bow in the clouds and it will be the sign of
the covenant between me and the earth. When I gather the clouds over the
earth and the bow appears in the clouds, I shall recall the covenant
between myself and you and every living creature, in a word all living
things, and never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all
living things.
God
the Father speaks:
I sent the rainbow 1996.
Florida
has had to deal
with many hurricanes
and floods.
I am God the Father -- you refuse to
listen to Mary. …
This is My sign sent to you --
the sign of the rainbow
You will not listen --
peace is found in
listening to Mary
Mary's
