November 3, 1998 Message for November 4, 1998 daily message

Messenger: Today I had a great experience before Mass.

I realized my intense union with so many saints. I loved each one and all together in an intense union as I love my best friend. My heart burns as I write now, for I was so one with them, realizing how they were one with us in this mission. I was lifted upward connected to the saints and the angels, as if my feet were off the ground and I was hanging from the clouds. I was connected in such union with them and all of heaven, realizing this support we had in this Movement with all the saints and angels to help to bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart and triumph of Mary's Heart.

My heart burned and I cried for I feel so one with St. Paul and St. John, St. Peter and all the other Gospel writers Matthew, Mark and Luke. I felt close to St. Catherine and St. Joseph. I felt such union with both St. Theresa of Avila and St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Margaret Mary, St. Claude de Columbiere and St. Bernadette. Today I felt united earlier to St. Dominic. I asked St. Francis of Assisi to help us and St. Clare. I felt intense union with each saint as my dearest friend and knew the help that was being given in this mission. I want to write to you, that you too will pray immensely for their powerful intercession in helping us.

At first I was praying so intently and begging the Father for people to help us to spread the prayer chapters and assist us. I felt abandoned by so many, especially in America, who have ignored us and will not help. I began to cry in my pleading telling Him how firmly I believe and asking Him to please help us.

As never before, I had this overwhelming love for the saints and angels, too, and was comforted tremendously. I felt more connected to the members of the heavenly court then to anyone on the earth. I knew of their great intercessory power and their love for me. I realized how immensely I love St. Michael, how I needed him, and St. Gabriel and St. Raphael and all the angels to help to battle against the devils trying to stop us. I knew of the angels that guard my children and I begged them and St. Michael to please help them and all others in the Movement that have answered this call and who suffer such tremendous attack from the evil ones trying to stop us.

Instead of feeling isolated because so few have responded when the world is so immense, I felt happy and free and connected to God and all holy souls in heaven and on earth.

I felt the tremendous disappointment He allowed me to experience because many here on earth have not responded and supported us, and He revealed to me that the more the souls fail to respond, the more they will suffer, for He is just.

We are trying with all our might to do all we can, but the world must respond to His messages and the appearance of Our Lady. She appears that men will respond. If they continue to ignore Him and Our Lady, it is the world that will suffer. I implore you today to call upon the saints and angels and souls in purgatory to pray and intercede with us that the will of God will be done on earth as it is in heaven. I implore you to ask the angels to help us fight this battle with the evil one. The power is in God. We must call on all the heavenly court to help us and join with us at every second as we are united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

We walk the way to Calvary with Him. He was all alone when He carried His cross, then Simeon helped Him, but many wanted Him put to death.

We are not alone. We are suffering, united to Jesus. I quote here St. Paul, whom I love so immensely now and I know that he loves me.


Colossians 1:24-29

It makes me happy to be suffering for you now, and in my own body to make up all the hardships that still have to be undergone by Christ for the sake of his body, the Church, of which I was made a servant with the responsibility towards you that God gave to me, that of completing God's message, the message which was a mystery hidden for generations and centuries and has now been revealed to his holy people. It was God's purpose to reveal to them how rich is the glory of this mystery among the gentiles; it is Christ among you, your hope of glory: this is the Christ we are proclaiming, admonishing and instructing everyone in all wisdom, to make everyone perfect in Christ. And it is for this reason that I labour, striving with his energy which works in me mightily.


Messenger: We are helping in the act of redemption. The more we do, the more it will affect souls.

The world will suffer if it does not respond. We must labor even when we do not see the results. We must fight harder, for souls are at stake.

Our Lady appears looking as Our Lady of Guadalupe in Florida. She is calling her children to respond to her Son and His messages, and to the priestly newsletter and the prayers He gives.

We can only deliver the message, the souls of the earth must respond to Him.

Everything seems so one all of a sudden, and I see myself as part of this Master Plan.

I realize this is reality, God is, and all the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory and all the souls of the earth are to be united in great oneness. Those that do not respond to God when they walk the earth, that seriously disobey His Commandments and are not sorry for offending God, condemn themselves to the fires of hell forever. He in His justice judges all rightly.

We call, we love Him and all He loves. He loves His precious souls so much He died for them so that they would be saved.

God is. We are His subjects, we are the children of God. We must obey Him lest we are condemned forever to hell. But it is joy I feel, for God is just and merciful and it is energy I feel to beat a path all the way to that last day, living my life, following His path, helping to lead souls to God for all eternity. It is through Baptism we are commissioned to go forth and spread the good-news to all the souls of the earth.

Alleluia, Jesus has risen and we are His faithful witnesses.

St. Paul, St. John, St. Mark, St. Matthew and St. Luke, help us to understand more fully the Gospel. Please intercede for us to understand the Word of God, especially the New Testament. Holy Spirit, descend upon us that we will have the Truth living in us.

We love You Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We love You and we thank You for giving us Mary and Joseph, all the saints, and St. Michael and all the angels, and we love You with our whole heart, our whole soul, and our whole being. We thank You for giving us a sharing in Your life. We thank You for Jesus Christ with us today in the Eucharist and we thank You for giving us the Holy Spirit.


Matthew 11:25-29
The good news revealed to the simple
The Father and the Son

At that time Jesus exclaimed, 'I bless you, Father, Lord of heaven and of earth, for hiding these things from the learned and the clever and revealing them to little children. Yes, Father, for that is what it pleased you to do. Everything has been entrusted to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, just as no one knows the Father except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

The gentle mastery of Christ

'Come to me, all you who labour and are overburdened, and I will give you rest. Shoulder my yoke and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Yes, my yoke is easy and my burden light.'


November 4, 1998 message

Messenger: I desire Him so much and when He gives me a special grace I cry because in that time I am so intently united to Him and I feel His love so deeply in my soul and my heart is so united in such love to all.

I long for these moments when He acts on my soul in a special way. But nothing I do can bring this on, it is totally His gift and His grace acting within me. I have even analyzed myself, longing so much for Him to come to me, to see if I eat or not eat if it would affect my receiving His gifts. I think this. He acts while I am in the car, He acts mostly after the reception of the Eucharist, He acts when He so desires and He wishes me to be completely open to Him. My every action is one of living in Him and trying to please Him, but I struggle with my faults and failings. The times He allows me to experience feeling separate from others, I feel separate many times because of imperfections in them or in me and the workings of Satan to try to make me feel separate. But in those moments of ecstasy which I so long for, when He acts on my soul in a special way, it is then I am bathed in His love and refreshed to run the race for Him. I desire so intently that He come and give Himself to me in this special way, but it is when He desires that He acts in these special ways on my soul. As I have received the great gifts of the daily messages, the intense, intimate experiences in which I am overwhelmed with His deep love, have been less dramatic. Each message He gives me is chiseled deeply on my soul, in the depth of my being. The words on the paper are the way I communicate to you, but the depth of the experience in receiving the message saturates my whole being and is permanently implanted in my soul.

I so desire that you be able to hear the live rosaries and at some time in the future receive the video of May 13, 1997. The tapes available of the live rosaries, 6 in all, were recorded on 13th's in which He delivered the messages: Oct.13, 1996; Nov. 13, 1996; Dec. 13, 1996; Jan. 13, 1997; Feb. 13, 1997, as Father Carter led the rosary. On Sept. 10, 1996, I delivered the rosary and received messages. These are the only live rosaries available. When Father Carter leads the rosary, Our Lord has promised immense grace. He led the 5 rosaries on the 13ths. The video of May 13, 1997, is very important to the completion of the Fatima mission. It includes the part Shepherds of Christ plays in this. Our President, John Weickert, led this rosary. This is the day the statues of the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart were displayed on Tom's Farm and after the rosary, all the chairs, pictures and the statues were overturned by a tremendous wind. The statues fell to the ground and broke.

I tell this story because of the message given to release this video as soon as possible. These live rosaries are presently given on the 5th of each month in Florida at 6:30 p.m.; on the 13th of the month in China, Indiana at 12:00 noon (unless otherwise indicated); on every Sunday at 2:00 p.m. at the Morrow Center, Ohio. There are special live rosaries, as on Dec. 17, 1998, in Florida, when called by Our Lord, or when He gives me permission to travel to a certain place and He promises to give messages (as in Toledo, Ohio).

The live rosaries consist in this. On the direction of Our Lord, I do this rosary. Mary and Jesus give messages verbally as we pray the rosary. Usually another person leads as I receive the messages. These rosaries are then transcribed and typed. They are reviewed by a competent priest theologian. The last book of rosaries for children and parents has been approved for the imprimatur. Future rosaries without messages, now will be sent for approval to the chancery in the hope we can circulate rosary meditations to the schools. These rosary meditations are to help the love of Jesus and Mary come alive in men's hearts. They are called Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Jesus speaks: I wish to state clearly here, I act on the soul. The soul should be open and waiting for Me to come to them and be intimate with them. I am the Initiator. I love My precious souls.

My Heart is on fire for love of you. Even when you do not feel My presence, I am very close to you. You must realize it is in the struggle that great grace is released. When I give you a special favor to know My love, it is a gift I give you, but I am no less present many times in the deepest suffering when you do not experience this sense of closeness.

I ask you again to record here the writing of Colossians 1:24-29.


Colossians 1:24-29

It makes me happy to be suffering for you now, and in my own body to make up all the hardships that still have to be undergone by Christ for the sake of his body, the Church, of which I was made a servant with the responsibility towards you that God gave to me, that of completing God's message, the message which was a mystery hidden for generations and centuries and has now been revealed to his holy people. It was God's purpose to reveal to them how rich is the glory of this mystery among the gentiles; it is Christ among you, your hope of glory: this is the Christ we are proclaiming, admonishing and instructing everyone in all wisdom, to make everyone perfect in Christ. And it is for this reason that I labour, striving with his energy which works in me mightily.


Jesus speaks: I wish these rosaries from Our Hearts to be used as meditations during the 6:30 p.m. prayer service. I wish all to know there is a prayer service including a short rosary at all three Shepherds of Christ Centers: Morrow, Ohio; China, Indiana; and Clearwater, Florida every evening at 6:30 p.m.

I wish these prayer services to be in churches, homes, schools, halls, all over the world at 6:30 p.m. as your Mother Mary has requested, gathering and asking for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Begin with the Shepherds of Christ prayers, and then the rosary using meditations from the Rosary Books if possible. If you are not in a church, the daily message from the most recent day can be acquired from the Internet and read.

Tomorrow is the 5th of November. A special rosary and great grace will be given from the image site in Florida. My children, I come to you in a special way with My grace in these rosaries. Every Tuesday the rosary is to be conducted for healing, mostly healing in the hearts. Great grace is given on Tuesdays for healing. All three Centers of the Shepherds of Christ pray simultaneously. Will you pray with Us?

I wish Junior Shepherds of Christ meetings to be conducted on Sundays if possible at 6:30 p.m., but if this is not possible, I wish them to be conducted whenever possible, after school, on Saturday afternoons, whenever the Juniors can gather. Juniors can be young men and women to 25 years of age. Some Juniors may join with several adults or a priest to conduct the meetings. If they can gather at 6:30 p.m., they are united with the other prayer groups as your Mother has requested.

6:30 p.m. is a time chosen by the Lady of Fatima in the Americas to gather and ask for the coming of the Holy Spirit and to pray for priests and the renewal of the Church and the world. She has requested you pray the rosary with these meditations.

The day the first Rosary Book was released was the day Mary was noticed on the building in Florida. She appeared in rainbow colors which matches the rainbow on the cover of the book released that day.

Mary speaks: My children, the rosaries We give to you are gifts to help to draw you into Our Hearts.

You were promised the greatest graces by Jesus which unite you most intimately to Our Hearts when you pray the prayers in the Shepherds of Christ Prayer Manual.

The time is nigh. The Reign of my Son's Heart is at hand as is the triumph of my Immaculate Heart. Please pray as my Son Jesus has instructed.

I am Mary your Mother, come and dwell in Our Hearts. I love you so, my little children.

Jesus speaks: We give to you these gifts. How the world responds will majorly affect the peace of the world.

I am Jesus, and I love you. Amen.


November 4, 1998   -   A Message from Jesus on Patience

Jesus speaks: My child, you cannot act adversely to momentary irritations. You must act in love. Many times people act in a huffy way because they are irritated and days are lost that could have been productive, happy days. You must pray for patience. You cannot act quickly and do something to flee an irritating situation. Many times you must act patiently, even when you do not wish to. When you feel agitated and anxious, irritated, unloved and violated, pray a speedy novena, beg for patience and grace and do not run away in a huff. Huffy attitudes are not from God. Even one who knows he must leave a situation, leaves out of love because it is the best choice. Do not act in anger. Every action must be rooted in the truth and love. Many lives have been changed because a person allowed hurt feelings to build, and finally they left the situation quickly, which was not the prudent choice. You must act according to God's will and act in love. It is not loving to yourself to accept abuse, one must leave an abusive situation, but one does not have to leave angrily when they are irritated. You must learn what is the prudent action, not the hasty action because of irritation. Many do not like to wait for others and become very irritated at waiting. They ruin special occasions because of a five minute wait for their partner or children. You must learn patience. Pray for this, and that you may love more deeply. Where are you going in your hurry? The time spent learning how to love in various situations is time well spent.
