Pray the Rosary for the World
Please Pray for Fr. Joe & Bob, Rita's Intentions
Prayer for Grace for 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.

November 13, 2021
R. Come Holy Spirit Come, renew the face of the earth.
Come Holy Spirit, Come renew the face of the earth.
God is the ultimate mystery. God has a Plan, a unique plan for us.
God loves so much.
We leave a legacy behind. How we loved, how we joined with each other, how we gave and touched others in our lives.
We are living here and bringing so much to so many other's lives.
All is not lost if one passes. We must focus on all that we have left.
Love, mystery, another day.
Love goes on like a bubbling brook, it keeps going.
And eternal life is forever!!
Jesus gave His all so we could have this life of love.
An attitude of gratitude and love and life forever with oneness with God and each other forever.
Heaven is forever, we were created for this, heaven is our true home.
Our love lives on in those we touch.
Thank you!
A smile, a way that others do things, time spent together or in communication.
How can we explain the files of memories, we know, we shared in a lifetime?
These are precious, these effect our hearts and our lives.
Deep in our hearts and minds there is so much to be forever grateful for. And God knew how much a life of love, a life of kindness, a life of service given to others can go on, and on, and on, in those we touched helping to build the Kingdom of God.
Every day can be so precious when we give ourselves to God and to others and love goes on and on and on.
You have touched so many!!
Created in the image and likeness of Jesus.
In the state of becoming more Christic.
Our destiny.
The incarnation goes on in us.
God is love!!!
A heart of love, Jesus dwells in us, operates in us.
Life can be fragile. We need Jesus operating in our hearts.
We need His help in everything, because sin exists in this imperfect world.
It can be hard.
We need the Holy Spirit in our lives, in our hearts.We need the Father’s protection and love.
We need our lives living in relationship with God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Life is in Him.
R. Love rooted in God is the greatest!!
What do you want to leave behind as your legacy? Whatever we do it has consequences for others. Love goes on as love. Abuse hurts those abused.
We will pass, but how we treated others will go on in their lives. So we ask God to come into our soul and use us for His work, for the building of His Kingdom.

Sorrowful Mysteries
The Agony in the Garden
1. Jesus suffered to His Heart after
all He endured for the
souls that would keep
sinning, hurting others,
lying and living to be
prideful.2. There were 2 thieves crucified
with Jesus.
The one is called the 'good thief'
he told Jesus, "Remember
me when you come into
Your Kingdom."3. The bad thief told Jesus to save
Himself and them, He would
not stop his angry ways.4. God created us to be with Him
eternally in heaven.5. It's so sorry that people
won't stop many times with
their sins, hurting their
eternal life and fighting and
hurting others.6. What God wants is living
God's will in love.
God created us – He wants
us to live eternally with
Him in heaven.
The Father's precious little
child.7. We have a free will to serve
Our Father and do His will –
or oppose the Father's will in
pride and disobedience.8. Our whole life should be
focused on the goal of
eternal life –
Jesus gave His life for
us - because He
loves us so much.9. When we die we have to let
go of control, empty
oneself –
Why would anyone choose
pride, control, anger,
jealousy, envy, slothfulness,
lust, gluttony when
they could choose life
in God, light in their
soul!10. And Jesus sweat Blood in the Garden.
The Scourging at the Pillar
1. The devil is relentless. He
wants a soul to never
admit their sins, to
be unaccountable and
irresponsible.2. The devil prowls the world
like a roaring lion, looking
for someone to devour.3. The devil wants to destroy, tear
apart, divide, start
chaos, bring hatred,
argumentation –
He wants to rule.4. We see the slavery of the
Jews under Pharaoh –
A person that gives satan
control of their hearts lives
in darkness.5. Jesus was whipped, beaten,
whipped, His flesh torn
for our sins.
Stubborn men wanting
to be right when they
sin, may never want
to give in.6. Jesus was whipped and whipped
again, for the person that
just lives to stir up
trouble among righteous
men.7. Satan is relentless, He
never grows tired,
never stops trying to
rule in his
evil ways over men.8. Moses came a baby in a
basket too.
Moses and Aaron told the
Pharaoh –
"Let my people go."
The Pharaoh wouldn't
give in even after
the plagues –
Satan is relentless –
When people sin –
satan laughs!9. Life / Death –
The resurrection shows us
there is life after death
for the man who loved and
served God as he should.10. Love gives of oneself.
Christ emptied Himself,
taking on all the
sins of the world –
because of His
great love for us.We were created by God
for God.Life
_____________Passover
Our true home is in
heaven, with our
heavenly Father – we must
love and obey Him.
The Crowning with Thorns
1. Jesus showed us
Death / Resurrection
the pascal mystery.2. Jesus is the King of heaven
and earth.John 3: 16
For this is how God loved the world:
he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him
may not perish
but may have eternal life.
3. Jesus allowed Himself to be
crowned with thorns –
His Head, beaten –
He was mocked.
He was spit on.
Christ gave His all –
He emptied Himself.4. The first commandment of God.
God says:
"I am the Lord thy God thou
shalt not have any God's
before Me."St. Augustine says:
Peace is the tranquility
of order –5. Order is – God must
be first.
We are under God –6. 1 Corinthians 15: 20-28
In fact, however, Christ has been raised from the dead, as the first-fruits of all who have fallen asleep. As it was by one man that death came, so through one man has come the resurrection of the dead. Just as all die in Adam, so in Christ all will be brought to life; but all of them in their proper order: Christ the first-fruits, and next, at his coming, those who belong to him. After that will come the end, when he will hand over the kingdom to God the Father, having abolished every principality, every ruling force and power. For he is to be king until he has made his enemies his footstool, and the last of the enemies to be done away with is death, for he has put all things under his feet. But when it is said everything is subjected, this obviously cannot include the One who subjected everything to him. When everything has been subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to the One who has subjected everything to him, so that God may be all in all.
7. God created a beautiful, harmonious,
good, orderly world. Disorder
came from the rebellion,
and disobedience of
Adam and Eve.
The world God created
reflected the love of God
for His creatures.8. With sin, death entered the
world.
Jesus is the way, the truth
and the life –
Order – God must be first!9. We see the deadly sins:
Pride is a sin and it is disorder.
When a person is angry or
envious or jealous of their
brother and holds out and
hold onto it – they put anger,
jealousy, themselves,
their sin before God.10. We must see God's will
and follow it to have
peace in our lives –From The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius, by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. p.12
23. FIRST PRINCIPLE AND FOUNDATION
Man is created to praise, reverence and serve God
our Lord, and by this means to save his soul.
From The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius,
by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. p. 1121. SPIRITUAL EXERCISES
Which have as their purpose the conquest of self
and the regulation of one's life in such a way that
no decision is made under the influence of any
inordinate attachment
The Carrying of the Cross
1. They beat Jesus, crowned Him
with thorns – then gave
Him a heavy cross laden
with the sins of the world.
He couldn't hardly move –
His legs could hardly move.2. Jesus fell under the weight
of the cross 3 times –
They kept laughing at Jesus,
hitting Jesus, forcing Him
to get up again while
He was carrying our
sins.
Satan is relentless.3. Fr. Carter told us
Kneel before the crucifix
and ask
1) What have I done for Christ?
2) What am I now doing for Christ?
3) What ought I to do for Christ?4. Sin hurts our relationship
with God and with others.
Jesus sweat Blood in the
Garden knowing all
who would reject Him
despite His love for them.5. Definition of love –
Love is the gift of self to promote
the true good of those loved.
Jesus showed us love in
giving and taking –
God is love.
When we love genuinely,
we can grow in Christ,
in relationships.6. It is loving to accept genuine,
good love according to
God's will from others.
It helps us grow.7. It is selfish when one person
is so shut up in themselves
they refuse to work with
others, communicate with
others and force a fight
to find out needed
information to operate.8. Love is giving without
manipulation and expecting
to control things for doing
what is our duty –
Using our job for selfish
controlling power over
others.
Dominance for dominance
sake.
Satan wants to rule!!9. We follow the cross of
Christ. In the spiritual
life we know we will
suffer –
We pray for the grace we
need most –10. Hebrews 1:1
At many moments in the past and by many means, God spoke to our ancestors through the prophets; but
27 Years Ago
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)
The Crucifixion
1. Death is our passage way
to eternal life.2. Jesus emptied Himself on the
cross – He loved His
Father's will –
He gave Himself –
He emptied Himself –
Jesus was always concerned
with others.3. Jesus showed us, suffering
according to the Father's will
leads to greater life.4. Jesus shows us dignity and
peace in suffering.5. Relationship with God
means obeying His
Commandments and
living by His Word.6. We are to die to our
ways not like Jesus,
to live more a life
like Jesus.7. The Church is the earthly
and visible continuation
of Jesus and His mission.8. We live now His life, death and
resurrection in our lives because
we want to go to heaven.9. Death for us is the final
self-emptying!10. Everything we do
should be living to
be raised up higher –
preparing for eternity.
Death / Resurrection

Guiding Light homily series — Reflect on the Word — Cycle B The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $10 |

Guiding Light homily series — Steadfast to the Son — Cycle A The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $10 |

Guiding Light — Focusing on the Word — Cycle B At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $10 |

Guiding Light — Feed My Soul — Cycle C In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $10 |
