Messenger: Today I couldn't go to Mass in the
morning so I watched the Mass video
with my granddaughter.
I am going to Mass later today.
Oh how can I even say how I truly treasure
the Mass.
We are given such a gift in our beloved priests.
We are given such a gift in His Word.
I long for heaven.
My life is lived always with the thought
of being completely satisfied in
heaven.
I go to Mass and I tell God I am sorry for
my sins.
I love Him so much and I do not want to
offend Him.
My heart is deeply filled with love of Him
and thirsting for His grace.
My whole life is centered around the Mass.
I long to receive Jesus in the Eucharist.
I feel His presence in Church and I know
the deep intimacy I have had in
the Eucharist.
Father Carter always said his whole day centered
around the Mass.
It is the highpoint of my day.
It is such a treasure to go to Mass.
We can have a very hard day and we go to
Mass and He can fill us so
deeply with His grace.
I love the word of God.
If we realized more how much
our God loves us, we would be
so happy.
Knowing how He is with me and loves me
and the fact He gave His life for love of
me gives me so much joy.
Read the scriptures, see the comforting
words our God gives to us.
He is personal like the letters in God's
Blue Book.
Jesus gave us these letters to know how
He wants us to have this personal
love affair with Him.
Today is an important day to Jesus.
He loves us to pray between
12:00 - 3:00 on Friday.
My heart longs for this time because I
know He wants us to pray then.
When I cannot go to the tabernacle and
to Mass early in the day, I
look forward to it all day.
The more we realize that we can be united
to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass going on
around the world, the more we will be able
to help bring down great grace for
the world.
God has given us this video to watch.
The more we watch the Mass video and
pray while it is going on the more
we will be aware how the Mass is
going on now all around the world.
It will be easier for us to unite to these
Masses.
We as members of the Body of Christ
are united to the Masses going
on around the world.
14Excerpt from Newsletter 2000 issue 2
Through the Eucharistic Sacrifice Christ the Lord desired to set before us in a very special way this remarkable union whereby we are united one with another and with our divine Head, a union that no word of praise can ever sufficiently express.

Messenger: When attending Mass we must pray for
grace
to more fully participate, we must
pray for a special grace to stay
united to the Mass all day, we
must pray for the grace to be
more deeply united as a body.
We need to reach the people with the morning
offering, so that great grace can be
released the more people offer up their
lives united to the Mass.

Messenger: Think of all the elderly and all of
those
suffering in hospitals that could offer

Messenger:
Why is it so hard for us to get people to
I hear how we are suffering from fewer
and fewer priests. Many once operating
parishes hardly have a priest
come once a week. Many Churches
have been closed.
And yet we have had so much difficulty
beginning these prayer chapters as Jesus
told us to do, for our priests.
Can you imagine what it would be like to
not be able to have Mass available
like we do.
What a gift God has given to us in the Mass
and in our Church.
Do we want to give our children a treasure?
Do we want the world to be the way God
wants it to be?
It will only happen through God's grace.
The Mass is the richest source of that
grace.
Look at Lucia's vision again.
June 13, 1929
October 19, 2001 message continues
Messenger: The modeling must be there by
the priests.
They must tell young men what a gift
it is to be a priest.
They must tell young men what a great
calling this is.
In the dioceses it is not up to one priest
to try to do all he can as the vocational
director.
It is the responsibility of each and every
priest to live his priesthood with
such joy and love of God that
men see what an honor it is to
be called to God's holy priesthood.
It is up to priests to plant seeds in the
hearts of young men.
The devil is sure planting many seeds to
lead them into sex and greed
and all the evils of the world.
We should be proud to say we are
Catholic and tell people about
the Eucharist and Confession.
Why don't people boast about the
gift of baptism.
That gift of sharing in God's Divine Life.
We worry about the right color of shoes, or
the right name brand of clothing, we want our
children to feel one with everyone at school,
but what about what they need to have a
white, deeply graced soul?
What is beyond what we see?
Do we see that money and houses and
many things we see do not truly
bring us the happiness we crave in
our heart.
What happens when the once beautiful skin
turns to many wrinkles and the
body we worshipped is eaten by
the deadly disease of cancer?
How long is eternity?
How long is our life on earth?
I was a math teacher and I learned about
finite and infinite.
The years we live on this earth are a finite
number.
The life of eternity goes on forever and ever
and ever and never ends.
The batting of an eye, the dropping of a pin
and our life can be ended.
Our priests are great gifts from God.
The power is in the Eucharist.
In the state the world is in,
why can't people see that God would
send His mother to tell them what
to do to have peace and harmony
and that Jesus would give prayers for the
priests, the Church and the world
and attach great graces to them.
God came to this earth 2000 years ago,
the Son of God came as a little baby,
He took on the body of a man to Save a
fallen race, why wouldn't God send
messages today and prayers when He
sent His only Son and He gave His life on
the cross for the sins of men, so we would
be saved.
The sign is given in Mary on the building, but
in the blindness men won't listen.
Look at the Shepherds of Christ Prayers, Jesus told to Father Carter
to compile -
The Holy Spirit prayer comes from a pope.
The Hail Holy Queen, Memorare and Rosary
are very important.
The Seven Sorrows are important.
The Litany to Mary is important.
The Litany to the Sacred Heart is important.
The Promises given by Our Lord to Margaret Mary are important.
The Prayer to St. Joseph comes from
a pope.
What about the prayers given by Jesus for
holy priests?
Prayer for Priests. "Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock, we pray that in the great love and mercy of Your Sacred Heart You attend to all the needs of Your priest-shepherds throughout the world. We ask that You draw back to Your Heart all those priests who have seriously strayed from Your path, that You rekindle the desire for holiness in the hearts of those priests who have become lukewarm, and that You continue to give Your fervent priests the desire for the highest holiness. United with Your Heart and Mary’s Heart, we ask that You take this petition to Your heavenly Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit. Amen."
October 19, 2001 message continues
Messenger: What about the prayers for each
other as
members of the Shepherds of Christ Movement?
Prayer for all members of the Shepherds of Christ Associates. "Dear Jesus, we ask Your special blessings on all members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. Continue to enlighten them regarding the very special privilege and responsibility you have given them as members of Your movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates. Draw them ever closer to Your Heart and to Your Mother’s Heart. Allow them to more and more realize the great and special love of Your Hearts for each of them as unique individuals. Give them the grace to respond to Your love and Mary’s love with an increased love of their own. As they dwell in Your Heart and Mary’s Heart, abundantly care for all their needs and those of their loved ones. We make our prayer through You to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, with Mary our Mother at our side. Amen."
October 19, 2001 message continues
Messenger:
What about praying for a Priestly Newsletter
Prayer for the spiritual and financial success of the priestly newsletter. "Father, we ask Your special blessings upon the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ. We ask that You open the priest-readers to the graces You wish to give them through this chosen instrument of Your Son. We also ask that You provide for the financial needs of the newsletter and the Shepherds of Christ Associates. We make our prayer through Jesus, in the Holy Spirit, with Mary at our side. Amen."

United with our Mother Mary, we make this petition to You through Jesus and in the Holy Spirit. Amen."

Messenger:
What about the prayer to St. Michael
Prayer to St. Michael and our Guardian Angels: "St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen."
"Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen."
Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje
Besides the messages associated with the major Fatima apparitions, there were other revelations given by Our Lady. Before Jacinta died, she told of other messages given her (during her illness) by Mary:
(19)...Tell everybody that God gives graces through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Tell them to ask grace from her, and that the Heart of Jesus wishes to be venerated together with the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Ask them to plead for peace from the Immaculate Heart of Mary, for the Lord has confided the peace of the world to her.

Here are two beautiful consecrations
Act of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary."Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock, I consecrate myself to Your most Sacred Heart. From Your pierced Heart the Church was born, the Church You have called me, as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, to serve in a most special way. You reveal Your Heart as a symbol of Your love in all its aspects, including Your most special love for me, whom You have chosen as Your companion in this most important work. Help me to always love You in return. Help me to give myself entirely to You. Help me always to pour out my life in love of God and neighbor! Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You!
"Dear Blessed Virgin Mary, I consecrate myself to your maternal and Immaculate Heart, this Heart which is symbol of your life of love. You are the Mother of my Savior. You are also my Mother. You love me with a most special love as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, a movement created by your Son as a powerful instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. In a return of love, I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock."

Father Carter said these prayers so much before
Jesus gave Father Carter these prayers and promised
so many graces when we pray them
for ourselves and for the priests, the
Church and the world.
Do you know how important the Mass
is?
How important is baptism and penance
and confirmation and the sacrament
of the sick?
How important is all this to us?
Why do we not realize that God would come
to a holy priest the last 33 years of
the second millennium and write
to his priests through him in
these troubled times.
It is the year 2001 - one year into the new
millennium.
Here is a quote from a message I received
from Jesus October 8, 1997.
Excerpt from October 8, 1997 message
Jesus speaks: I did not put you on the earth and then leave you to yourselves. I dwelt amongst you to guide you in all your ways and the people today spit on Me as they did 2,000 years before. For all these years I waited for the likes of you, My people, and why should you have more time for false joy? Joy is not in the molten calf. It is in the words of the Savior."

He said we should pray as body
united together.
Excerpts from February 23, 1999 message
Jesus speaks: I ask you to recognize yourself as a body and realize others are praying with you at 6:20 p.m....
... You are a body praying. You must feel this unity praying to your God as the people of My Movement, the Church and the world. You are gathered in one place, the world dwelling in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary....
...Think of being united with all others praying as a body, as were the Apostles at Pentecost. Pray for the special coming of the Holy Spirit. Think of yourself as My spouse dwelling in the pure Heart of Mary and in My Sacred Heart. Feel the deep union of your hearts in Me....

Excerpt of The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, by Louis J.
Puhl, S.J.
136. THE FOURTH DAY
A MEDITATION ON TWO STANDARDS
The one of Christ, our supreme leader and lord,
the other of Lucifer, the deadly enemy of our
human naturePRAYER. 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. . . .

This is an urgent request from the Good Shepherd. The flock will become one when they have given their hearts to Jesus and Mary. Encourage all priests to pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers. Your world will be lighted with great light as the people of this earth pray these prayers.
My promise is this to you My beloved earth: When you give your heart to Me and spread the devotion to My Sacred Heart, I will write your name In My Heart. I promise to give the greatest graces when you pray these prayers for renewal of the Church and the world and take all who pray them deeply into My Heart.
