R. The Sacred Heart devotion helps a man
in his interior life. The more we
focus on the love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus –
we see God's love for us and understand
how we are to love our neighbor.
A person doing ill-will to another
has a target toward them or towards a
group of people as a target. It is hard for
a man of faith to understand how
one who is filled with darkness
thinks – but pride, envy,
jealousy, slothfulness all is
selfishness and in passive -
aggressive ways of using silence,
holding out
– we see the desire of
manipulating, punishing a target,
getting one's way. Targeting for the
garbage one has in the heart,
unforgiveness, anger, selfishness,
control, violence, manipulation
etc.
We can see these are unloving.
God is love –
If we meditate on the Heart of Jesus
we know meekness – not combattal
and ready to fight – we know loving –
wanting the good of the other –
for we see how Jesus laid down
His life in loving us –
We know this overflowing love
from the Heart of Jesus –
that He died for our sins and He
rose to give us a sharing in His life –
Through the pierced Heart of Christ
the Church was born –
We see the birth of the Church
from the pierced Heart of Christ –
Christ, the New Adam –
Christ died on a tree –
Adam and Eve ate of the fruit of
the tree –
It is because of their sin
as our ancestors, that this disorder,
the tendencies of anger, pride,
envy, jealousy are in our
wounded human nature –
To be likened to Christ – to make
choices that will help us to be
faith-filled, full of hope for ourselves
and neighbor and loving of God as
we should be and loving toward
our neighbor –
we must go to God - naked –
telling God we are sorry for our
sins and seeking the knowledge
from the Holy Spirit to see our ways
we need to change –
We are here for conversion – for
dying to our sinful ways, bad habits --
and rising in Him. Religious are to
choose a special way of living
in perfection – more and more
likened to the Heart of Jesus –
Religious are set apart, by
dress, by title and tell the world
this is what Christ wants – to
be holy.
It is a paradox when one wears
a habit or puts a title before
themselves that says – they
represent Christ,
but drive people away through
selfishness and pride.
A religious has a responsibility
to show through their actions the
Christ that lives in them. A
religious has a responsibility to
live their spousal relationship
with Christ and witness to
others about this spousal
relationship and they are to live
to show virtuous living.
Man wants to be loved –
Man was created to know this
love of God is His strength.
Religious should be people of love,
who generously have given themselves
in love of God and for love of their
neighbor.
Jesus showed us the love of
His Heart. He took flesh – He came
and lived amongst us – He gave
love, He healed, He taught,
He went out of Himself – He
fed the people in His teaching
and with the multiplication of
the loaves and fish, He gave
them the miraculous fish –
We have seen evil –
evil targets another whether
it is a passive-aggressive attack –
the attacker - targets others or a
single person to act out the
evil within the attacker, himself, has –
Aggressiveness grows – We saw
this in World War II – how aggressive
that war became –
In the recent attack in Paris
we see as they reported – people
were shot in the back of the
head. It was sneaky – people
went there to be entertained –
And these attacks were to
target innocent others because
of the evil within them –
Anger grows in a heart that
does not deal with it –
Fr. Joe said when a person is
angry – they are to pray for
this to stop – that they will
not give into it and let it grow
in violence toward an innocent
other –
This attack yesterday is really global
terrorism – We saw the
mad machine of brutality
in World War II –
When violence comes as terrorist –
it is sneaky – coming to
good people and they are
taken by surprise –
A person going to a concert and
ending up in a pool of blood
dead is terrorism and it makes
others fear. It's object, is to
create fear of this terroristic act
–
This is how satan works – to
attack while the person
is off guard –
It is to show power –
It is to show control –
It is sneaky –
Mary warned us at Fatima that
there would be World War II if
we did not listen –
We still haven't listened to Mary's
message at Fatima –
. Devotion to the Two Hearts of Jesus and Mary –
. Conversion
. Reparation
. Consecrating the Church and the
world to the Sacred Heart & Immaculate Heart
. Consecrating Individuals to the
Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart,
priests, families, school children and elderly
. Reparation by the First Saturday devotion
. Praying the Rosary
R. Mary is the Queen of Peace
This is what Mary said.
This attack is an attack of hate –
. Jesus has given to us these writings
on the Mass for 20 years
Mass Book 1995
. Jesus has given us these prayers
to spread the prayer
chapters.
These prayers were given by Jesus to
Fr. Carter, our founder, to pray for the
Church and the world.
. We must pray united as members
of the Mystical Body of
Christ for the Church and the world –
Man was created in love –
God loved man into existence –
God has given us dignity –
Man has within him a desire
to be loved in the
Christian community
by men and by God –
Man has this need to be loved by
God whether he knows
it or not –
God has called us in the Shepherds of Christ
to call people to pray –
during retreats and
especially on the 13ths and
5ths to bring people to our
loving, holy, communities
to pray for the priests, the
Church and the world.
From the first 13th – October 13, 1996 –
this is why Jesus called the
13ths to pray for this peace
in the world –
The date on all the letters we sent
with the books was
October 13, 2015 –
19 years of 13ths – Jesus called, He
said for His completion of the
Fatima message –
He gave us right away the Church
in China for this prayer on
the 13ths and we were
able to have Mass and the
Eucharist exposed to bring
great prayer before God –
Our retreats were given in
Florida where Mary, Queen of
Peace appeared –
This building Jesus said was
the Building of the Two Hearts –
All 5ths -
Our Lady of Clearwater Florida

R. God has
called us to this vocation –
to go out – to draw people to prayer
at Morrow, Florida and China
to pray for the priests, the Church
and the world and to take these
prayers
R. out of
these prayer centers –
so people begin prayer chapters
and encourage others to do so
all over the world –
The Blessed Mother appeared in
Clearwater and has appeared
to me for 21 years calling for
this devotion to the Sacred Heart and
Immaculate Heart – conversion – purity
and love to lead men to
conversion and reparation –
The central theme of this retreat
that ended November 13, 2015
was the love of the Sacred Heart,
Consecration, Reparation,
Conversion, the Mysteries
of the Rosary, the Shepherds of Christ
Prayers, the Holy Spirit and the Mass,
Adoration etc. –
These were prayers for our country
and for the world – the Church –
We pray for you from our Church
in China,
24 hours a day before the exposed Eucharist.
We pray eight-day retreats for you every month.
R. We are to see ourselves as called
by God in our vocation
to help the world to be
more in the image of Jesus.
It is 'just' we give this love and
devotion to God.
God has called us to this vocation
in the Shepherds of Christ –
They did not do what Mary
said at Fatima and there
was World War II.
Jesus said October 13, 1996
He began His part in
bringing to completion
the Fatima message –
The devil works in anger, sneaky,
targeting –
The devil wants to bring the
people to violence and
darkness, control, power,
war, combattal, tricks
stabbing in the back –
We were created for love –
These prayer services are to
be a community of love
drawing people to the
Blue Books, the Rosary, the
Mass, the Bread of life –
Mary is the Queen of Peace
We can fulfill our vocation
only by realizing how
much God personally
loves us.
We need greater faith –
God is in charge –
We can't rebel against God
and win –
Our lives must be lived in
seeking the will of God
and living in love –
loving God and our
neighbor –
This is the Devotion of the Sacred Heart
and Immaculate Heart –
It is in knowing the love
of the Two Most Perfect
Hearts of Love –
This is God's will for us –
We must pray as Jesus has
told us and pray the
rosary –
Devotions to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart
Come and pray on the 13th
as Jesus has called us.

The Birth of the Full Ministries
of the Shepherds of Christ
"I wish to share with you part of a message which Jesus gave us on October 13, 1994. The message tells us about the expansion of the Shepherds of Christ movement:
'My beloved priest-companion, today I come to you with another mission. I am asking you to establish Shepherds of Christ Ministries. At My request you have already begun the priestly newsletter, "Shepherds of Christ", and the prayer chapters, Shepherds of Christ Associates...
'I am giving you this message on this day, the 77th Anniversary of the Great Apparition at Fatima, because of the close connection between the Shepherds of Christ movement and the Fatima message. The Fatima message is centered in devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart, especially in consecration to Our Hearts. Shepherds of Christ Ministries is also centered in devotion to Our Hearts. I will use Shepherds of Christ Ministries as a great instrument in helping to bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. When this occurs, My Church and the world will be experiencing the great era of peace promised by My Mother at Fatima.
'Today, then, October 13, 1994, the 77th Anniversary of the Great Apparition at Fatima, marks the birth of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I pour forth the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock.'
"Jesus has told us that Shepherds of Christ Ministries includes: the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, Shepherds of Christ Associates prayer chapters, various publications, including books, whatever else Our Lord directs us to undertake.
"As members of Shepherds of Christ Associates, you are an extremely important part of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. You have given great joy to the Heart of Jesus by responding to His invitation to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. As He draws you closer to His Heart and to His Mother's Heart as Associates members, He will fill you with an ever-increasing experience of His love, peace, and joy."
- From In the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, Newsletter of Shepherds of Christ Associates
by Fr. Edward J. Carter S.J., Volume 1, No. 1, 1995. p. 2.
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)
Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus
My dear fellow Associate Members,
Jesus is calling special apostles to join a new division of the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Here is a message from Jesus given to Father Carter:
My beloved priest-companion, I am requesting that a new prayer movement be started under the direction of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I am asking for volunteers who are willing to pray before the Blessed Sacrament for one hour, twice-weekly. Members of the Shepherds of Christ prayer chapters, as well as others, are to be invited to join this movement.
These apostles are to pray for the intentions I am giving you. For part of the hour they are to use the prayers of the Shepherds of Christ Associates Handbook. They may spend the rest of the hour as they so choose.
I will use this new prayer movement within My Shepherds of Christ Ministries in a powerful way to help in the renewal of My Church and the world. I will give great graces to those who join this movement. The name, Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, is to be given to this movement.
I am inviting My beloved Rita Ring to be coordinator for this activity.
I pour out the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock.
This is indeed a special calling for us to unite in one heart with His Eucharistic Heart and pray for the following intentions:
1. For the spread of the devotion to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary culminating in the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of the Immaculate Heart.
2. For the Pope.
3. For all bishops of the world.
4. For all priests.
5. For all sisters and brothers in the religious life.
6. For all members of the Shepherds of Christ Movement, and for the spread of this movement to the world.
7. For all members of the Catholic Church.
8. For all members of the human family.
9. For all souls in purgatory.end of Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart message
A message for the Earth from Jesus
I am the Good Shepherd, these are My prayers, the prayers I give to help renew the Church and the world, all prayer chapters are asked to include these prayers (found in the Shepherds of Christ Prayer Manual). As My Apostles and Shepherds I ask you to encourage all existing Chapters to try to encourage all existing prayer groups to pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers. Encourage all Churches to pray these prayers. It is most urgent that the people of this earth concur with the Father's wishes to begin Prayer Chapters. 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. The prayers I give will bring about the reign of My Sacred Heart and the triumph of Mary's Immaculate Heart. I am Jesus Christ, this is My message of January 22, 1998, Please circulate this message to your world. I am the Good Shepherd, I know Mine and Mine know Me and they follow Me. Grace My Shepherds, I will give you the greatest graces for spreading these words to this earth and to your Church. I love you, I am Jesus Christ, the Son of Man, it is the Plan of the Father that Prayer Chapters are begun immediately and the Priestly Newsletter is given to all priests. The Voice of the Good Shepherd speaks through it.
