Messenger:
Today Our Lord told me to go to Church at the
hospital that we went to the day Fr. Carter
died, December 18, 2000.
Our Lord told me to get to Michigan on December 18, 2000
as soon as possible, everybody seemed to
deter me from getting there.
I felt as if I was tied and not able to move
Fr. Carter was in Michigan, I was in Florida
we had the 17th anniversary celebration in Florida
and I knew at 3:00 AM on December 18th that
Fr. Carter would die.
He was there and Our Lord said to get
up there right away.
I tried to make the connection to get
there.
John & I decided to go together.
When John and I got to Michigan we got
a call at the exact time the Shepherds
of Christ 6:20 prayers were ending.
Fr. Carter's sister called and said
Fr. Carter just died.
We heard him deliver the Shepherds of
Christ prayers on the tape in the
car as we tried to find Columbiere
in Michigan and then his sister
called and said Father died.

Messenger:
I called the priest who helps us crying and
he said ask them to keep the body
until you get there.
Well we were lost and when we finally
got there, they told us they had to
take the body.
I know the timing was perfect because
Jesus was with us in a very strong
way.
Father went up there on December 14, 2000
December 14, 2002
4 days before Father Carter died

I guess Father Carter knew on December 14, 2000
he wouldn't see us again.
October 4, 2002 message continues
Messenger:
He was at Columbiere just that long
the evening of December 14, 2000 - December 18, 2000
Then when John & I got there they told us
we could go to his room.
The door was closed and on the door was the
St. Francis crucifix.
This moment is engraved in my heart.
And the crucifix is so special to me.
Instead of being with Father on his
death bed
It was like the empty tomb and
what is vividly imprinted in my
heart - the vision of the St. Francis
crucifix, I never had paid attention
to before.
It was very small about 3½ inches.
On his door in that short amount of time
he had put this little crucifix.
It looked like this.
October 4, 2002 message continues
Messenger:
I scanned this from the one I found
when I got home in his belongings
the same size, identical.
When I got to his doorthe tomb was
empty and I was shown this
crucifix, the St. Francis Crucifix
St. Francis' mission was to help
rebuild the Church
It was as if God said to me and John
"This is your mission now
I am taking Fr. Carter to heaven and
asking you to continue Fr. Carter's
mission to help renew the Church
and the world."
When I got home I found this little identical
crucifix in Fr. Carter's things.
I can hear Fr. Carter say
Rita, "I am not going to be around
forever, you and John are
going to have to run the Movement."
I cry to write this, but from this time,
this crucifix of St. Francis is so
dear to me.
I feel this was the message Jesus gave
to us.
Today Our Lord sent me to this hospital
for Mass to where a holy Franciscan
priest celebrated Mass. He was the
same priest who said Mass the day
Father died. John and I went to
Mass here when we stopped in
Cincinnati on our way to Michigan.
He held up the Franciscan crucifix.
I want to account what happened in the
room with John and me after we saw
the crucifix.
Excerpt from December 18, 2000
Messenger: John and I now sit in Father's room in Colombiere, where he died. We just missed his body, which had been taken away.
We loved to see his room and were heart broken we missed our
beloved priest who passed away at 7:10 p.m.Emily called, and John and I and Emily, on the phone, prayed the
Chaplet of Mercy. John and I were at his bed, John knelt by
the bed and I sat on the bed and we prayed. I felt his very strong
presence with us. It was sometime shortly after 9:00 p.m. when we
finished.John looked at the clock in Father's room and it said 7:09, one
minute before he died.At one point when I was in the room when we first
got there, I heard all this noise in the clock and I said to myself "What is wrong with that clock?"
I did not look at it. Then we prayed the Divine Mercy
a second time which ended shortly after nine. The second time
we prayed, Emily prayed with us on the phone. That is when John looked at the clock and it
said 7:09. But actually it was a little after 9 p.m. The clock continued to operate normally with the earlier time.
I see his little Pooh bear here we gave him. He said
he always "goes with the flow like Winnie the Pooh." I see
his scapular and his apostle pendant he wore around
his neck that turned from gold to silver and his apostle rosary,
that he always prayed on.
There are beautiful roses we sent him and a big card
Melanie made with lots of signatures. Father Carter loved
so many, so deeply.
I call to mind a line from the Sound of Music, it goes
something like "How do you hold a moon-beam in your
hand?" He died at 7:10 p.m. about the time a lot of people are
ending or still praying the 6:20 prayers. I know our Lord wanted
him to die then.Jesus died on the cross and many of his apostles were not with
him. Everyone had every reason why I should not go here to Colombiere and I knew Jesus wanted us here. John and I are still in his room. I feel him
with us in a special way.Last night at 3:00 a.m,. when our Lord gave me the message, I could see
the glories of heaven and how hard it is here and I thought "why
would I want Father to stay if God wants to give him his reward."end of excerpt from December 18, 2000

December 6, 1996.
Excerpt from December 6, 1996

Jesus speaks: I want the little ones to carry My picture.
I will protect your little ones in a special way,
if you ask Me and display images of My
Sacred Heart.
Have the little images on the heart area
of the shirt so My image will be
close to their heart.
You can carry Sacred Heart badges.
Messenger: I am very aware of Jesus with me.
The pictures help me to feel His
presence with me.
I cannot imagine what it would
be like without pictures of
Jesus and Mary in my home.
I am always aware of His presence.
The pictures are very important to
me, I like to look at them and
think of Jesus.
Jesus speaks: I
bless those homes in a special
way that display pictures of
My Sacred Heart and honor Me.

Subject: small healing to shareI give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in LOVE!!!
I just wanted to share a healing with you that occurred during the 5:20 prayers (hook-up) Sept. 5th. Rachel, my youngest had been running a 103.5 fever for two days and right in the middle of the hook-up, she came in and sat on my lap and I noticed her temp was normal where it had been high at 5:30. I knew right away it was from the prayer service and the fever never returned.
Thank You Jesus and Mary!I just thought to share in case SofC was making notes.
All My Love,

Excerpt from September 9, 2002
Messenger:
My legs have hurt me so bad since
June 20, 2002.
I was told to go to New York with Emily
and Doris June 20, 2002 for only the
day...
Jesus told me June 19, 2002 to go up
there on June 20, 2002, look at
where the buildings were and
come back....
We left early and as soon as we got to
the airport my legs began to hurt,
especially my right leg, the
knees, it is a long story.
For the past months, most nights I
couldn't sleep and it has
been a struggle and painful...
(On September 5, 2002)
I prayed really hard at the rosary for my
legs. I felt the rain was helping
to wash away my leg problem
as it came down on us and I
saw the beautiful window
before me.
It was more brilliantly blue than I
ever saw.
The gold was like a red-golden fire
and the whole next day my day was
spent in such joy having seen her,
but the good thing is, I feel healing
in my legs from the 5th.
I prayed to Mary to intercede for healing
for my leg problem.
end of excerpt from September 9, 2002
From September 5, 2002

Please come on October 5, 2002

Mary speaks:
I ask you to come to my image site
on the 5th of October.
Excerpt from September 17, 2002
I wish the store to carry the Christmas
materials immediately, coloring
books, Blue Books, Spanish Coloring
Books.
I wish image rosaries be made available in
the store and on Tom's farm.
These must also be ordered, it takes
months for their delivery, the requirement
has been made the materials are covered
before the order.
I ask you to have Christmas presents that
reflect Mary's image.
What a gift I give to the earth, you
should tell people about this especially at
Christmas.

Messenger:
Jesus told me that Spelt was good for me
and He told me to take it.
I have taken it since about June 1997.
It is a very good grain. I get it from
Kraft Specialties,
Cincinnati, Ohio.
I thank God for this great food.
I take it every day as Our Lord told me
to.
I mix the granules in boiling water
and let it sit a little while then
I drink it. It has helped me very
much to feel good.
