I consecrate Russia and the Ukraine to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I further consecrate the priests, the Church and the world to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I do this in the name of Jesus in as far as I am able, united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, praying to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, with all the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory through the powerful intercession of Mary, Queen of Peace. Amen.

I further consecrate myself, all members of my family and ask the Holy Spirit to fill us. I spread the Blood of Jesus on all above, I cast the devil into hell away from all of us and consecrate all persons, in as far as I am able,  to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart.

Prayer for Grace for Election and our Country

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

        

October 22, 2023

His name shall be Emmanuel.
“God with us”

God wants us to live the life,
death and resurrection of
Jesus in our lives.

That is why the Rosary is so
important to our spiritual life.

What is important to our
spiritual life is love and doing
God’s will.

The Good Shepherd wants us
to hear His voice and follow
Him.

Jesus, I place my trust in you.
Trust is needed for every
relationship.

We must realize our
dependency on God.
We surrender to God’s will.
Not being forced-
We lovingly conform to God’s
will.
 

Let us hear the voice of the
Good Shepherd and follow
Him.
Help us Lord as You lead and we
follow You.

Lord Jesus, teach us Your
ways. Amen.
 

R. Jesus called handmaids and
servants of the Good
Shepherd, Fr. Carter said to
me in 1994.

Fr. Carter said the Lord
called Him to this mission.
He said 29 years ago the
Blue Books were as much
his as mine.

He then was told this
message the end of May
1994 to begin the Priestly
Newsletter and to send to
all priests in the United
States and especially to the
hierarchy all over the world.

Here is a message he
received on the Feast of St.
Ignatius July 31, 1994 with
regard these prayer chapters
and the prayers in the Prayer
Manual, which he had
translated - now in 8
languages with the Church’s
Imprimaturs.
These prayers praying for
the priests, the Church, and
the world with devotion to
the Sacred Heart and
Immaculate Heart. 

 
July 31, 1994

Words of Jesus to Members of Shepherds of Christ Associates:

"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.

"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.

"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

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

 
R. This was 29 years ago.

Mary’s image appeared on
the building in Clearwater 2
and 1/2 years later.

Mary’s image was there 7
and 1/2 years until a vandal
broke the image head with a
sling shot.
Fr. Carter received the
Church in China, Indiana
from the Archdiocese in
1997 and then given
permission to reserve the
Eucharist and priests came
to say Mass.
In 2004 the Archbishop
gave us permission for 24/7
exposition of the Blessed
Sacrament - He told me to
begin in February Feast of
the Purification.

In 2004, March 1, 2004
Mary’s image face was
destroyed.

R. Mary's image when I prayed
July 5, 2000 - Fr. Carter was
sick - he died 6 months later.

 

R. Mary's image as I prayed on
a 5th in Florida, Clearwater
before the image head was
destroyed.

To date we have circulated
17,000,000 Priestly
Newsletters in 29 years,
loose and in books, to priests
and hierarchy, all over the
world and 1,000,000 of
Fr. Joe's books to priests,
hierarchy, and members.

On March 22, 1994, the
Birthday of Lucia main
Fatima visionary, the corner
fell off the old Cincinnati
seminary in minutes.
I was there. Jesus told me
that morning the floor would
shake and I would hear the
biggest bomb I ever heard,
because no one was listening.

That July 5, 1994 Mary
appeared to me there daily
for 14 months, giving me
Rosaries from the Hearts of
Jesus and Mary. (Fr. Carter
was there every day for a
good part of the time.)
The people at the Holy
Spirit Center then refused
to let me do the Rosary or
Shepherds of Christ Prayers.
It was September 11 or 12,
1995 when they made me quit.

Fr. Carter told me to go to
Holy Cross-Immaculata - then
his Jesuit residence for Mass
and Fr. Carter went to China
to say Mass.

I received the Mass Book
and Blue Book 9 -
My Mass writings were many
after that.
 

A Prayer Before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

    Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.

    I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.

    Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.

    Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.

    Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.

    Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.

-Mass Book, December 27, 1995

 

A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb the Bridegroom of the Soul

     Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.

R. Soon after this Mary
appeared in Clearwater.
We leased the building in
1998 - July 5, 1998, I did
the prayer service there.
Securing the loan
December 31, 2000, two
weeks after

We paid it off much later on

Jesuits August 8, 1951.
