R. Apostles Creed
I want to pray for some special intentions. I want to ask that the blood of Jesus is spread on all these people, consecrate their hearts, cast the devil out, and ask for a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Pray for Amanda and that whole situation. Pray for John and pray for the mailing that we sent out. Pray for the Blue Book 14. Pray for God's will to be done. Ask that the blood of Jesus is spread on all these people, consecrate their hearts, cast the devil out, ask for a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Just surrender everything to Your will, dear God, ask You to protect us and help us.
And on this 5th we have to remember all the years of 5ths, that go all the way back to the first 5th, which Our Lord told me to do, and that was July the 5th, of 1994. So almost 20 1/2 years of 5ths, that we have been doing, and then the Blessed Mother appeared here on the building for 7 1/2 years and it was wonderful outside. And we thank You, God for all these gifts. Praying for the mailing and all the intentions that Sheila prayed for, Jerry's list and my list, and your list too, for the priest, the Church and the world, and the hierarchy that we sent the mailing to, for Dan, hope that he will have complete recovery. Our Father
So we are going to pray the rosary tonight and I would also like to pray for the protection against the evil one and spreading the blood of Jesus on everything here, and all the people that touch us in any way, and our families, and anybody that touches them, and our work that everything that we do is for the honor and glory of God.
For an increase of faith, hope and love. 3 Hail Mary
Glory Be
R. I remember in December, and it was one year, and Our Lord really, was telling me a lot about His passion, even though that Christmas time was coming. Today I really did focus on the Joyful Mysteries. But we have to see the life of Christ, and we know that Jesus came and we are preparing for this wonderful time of celebration that Jesus came to this earth and that He took flesh. And so tomorrow is the Second Sunday of Advent, and so we are really preparing. But we know that in the Old Testament, that we see a lot, that the prophets warned, and that many times they ignored the prophets, and they brought down that suffering, that they had to endure, on themselves because of their disobedience. And so we see that in the readings, and we see that in Fr. Joe's new book, which is terrific. So order Fr. Joe's new book. It's really wonderful.
Sorrowful Mysteries
The Agony in the Garden
1. R. And so today for me, I remember when Jesus appeared to me at the point of death on the cross. And so Our Lord really wants me to go through the Sorrowful Mysteries tonight. We did the Joyful this afternoon. But after Mary appeared to me, on all those 5ths, and that went on for like 2 1/2 years, then on December the 5th of 1996, I went down to Holy Cross-Immaculata, and that's where she had been appearing to me, and it was always before I went to a Mass at Fr. Carter's, and I went in there and Mary didn't appeared, and I prayed my rosary, and she didn't appear and then Jesus appeared, at the point of death on the cross. It was like horrifying for me, to look at Him. I cried so hard and I cried for 3 days afterwards. And He showed Himself to me like that at the end of 1996. At the beginning of 1996, and this is in the Blue Book 10, He showed Himself to me transfigured in the front of the church at the beginning of the year, adorned in light, and it was such a joy for me, to be able to see Him, and I cried there because of the joy. But God gives to us so many gifts, and yet in the death, there is the resurrection. The Agony in the Garden. Did you say the Our Father?
2. R. And God is a just God, and God will judge us justly. So even though others may do things in this life that are wrong, and they can be smug about it, or they can be secretive, because satan does work in secret – God is a just judge, and we know that justice and peace will kiss.
3. R. Sometimes one of the hardest things for us to do, is when we have had a surprise, and we really don't understand, even, the actions of others, or we do not understand what happened, that we still have to do the will of God. And so there was a Blue Book writing, and it was in Blue Book 3, and the Blue Book writing said, clearly, that we are to do the will of God despite the action of others. And sometimes that can entail lots of suffering, when we are called by God to do something and it's really important to Him. So satan can attack and try to take us off our course, and in the end we have to discipline ourselves, and continue along the path that God has asked us to do. And so I want to ask God to help give us the grace to live according to His will and not be swayed by emotions or ways that we may feel, when things happen around us, that may really hurt, disappoint us, make us lose heart in what God is calling us to do. I pray for that grace that we will not lose heart and do the will of God, despite how we feel, in suffering or in joy.
4. R. And so we can plan and we can figure that many, many things are going to be a certain way, and when everything is harmonious and according to God's plan, there can be such tremendous joy in syncranation. And then the devil can come and he can knock something so that it almost takes our focus off of what God is calling us to. We may think that, oh on Sunday, I'm just going to walk in there at Church and I'm going to be so united to Jesus, like He talks about in the Blue Book, and I'll just be happy as a lark. And then the person that sits next to us at Mass, it maybe somebody that's really divided with us, in competition with us, and then we will have to deal with that situation if they come into the pew.
Whatever the case is, it may be very disappointing to us, when we think that we are even going to have a spiritual high. It may be something that kind of rocks that spiritual high, to where it's not what we thought. And maybe that's what God is calling us to. God is allowing us to suffer, and many of those things where we may have thought everything was going to be 'hunky-dory'. We may be called to be with someone in our family, that can demand a lot of our attention, and really have tremendous problems, where we thought we were going to go out and have a nice lunch, or go out and enjoy a movie, or just enjoy their company. And God may call us to something that is really going to affect their lives, and yet it can be tremendous suffering to us, but our being there, our doing it God's way, can be the very thing, that may help something else happen, even help a person so that someday when they really are threatened by things in their life, they might turn the right way because of our example, because of our love, because of our compassion.
And so we have to just keep discerning, to do God's will, to know that there will be suffering. A lot of times when we expect something to be something of joy, it can be something of suffering, and then we still have to say 'yes' to it. Mary said 'yes' to the will of the Father. Mary had a lot of sufferings and when we meditate on the 7 Sorrows of Mary, we meditate on those sufferings that Mary endured, and how tremendous they must have been for her, and yet Mary said 'yes'. Mary's fiat is what we meditate on. Mary said 'yes' always to the will of God.
5. R. And He took me down a road, and I thought that the road would be covered with pretty flowers and bushes, green trees, and that the birds would be singing and the sun would shine, that the air would be warm against my skin, and that I would walk with Jesus. And instead it wasn't like that at all. The day was cold, it was bleak looking. There were rocks and thistles and briar bushes. It was not the pretty flowers that I had envisioned, or the bushes and the trees that I thought, would accompany me on my way. I did not hear the sounds of the sweet birds singing in the trees, but instead a big dog came and I even ran part of the way, for fear that he may bite me. And long last, at the end of that path I sat on a rock and said, "this is not how I thought it was to be, Lord." And He said:
Jesus: Follow Me, My child, for the way that I walked was a way of suffering. Some days, you will experience great joy in seeing the creation and the great gifts that I have given to you. And some days I will call you to carry the cross, as I did on My way to Calvary. And it is in your heart and how you accept things. It is in the knowing that I am with you at every moment, that you are not to fear that I never go from you, child, that you know Me, so intimately within your breast.
Come to Me, little heart, come to Me and lay your head upon My Heart, that you will hear the beating love that God has for you. You are precious to God, child. You will be called to many different things in your life. If you study the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary, you must know that she had much joy in her life, and yet you have been asked to meditate on the sufferings of the Virgin Mary, to see her all the way as she walked the Way of the Cross, as she experienced the invisible wounds within her heart, as she suffered so much all through the passion. But My precious one, I will never leave you abandoned. Do not fear for I am with you. I am with you always.
Stay steadfastly united to Me, always, little one. I have given to you My writings in the Blue Books, that you will know how much, I really love you. They are My letters of love. Share them with your friends. Write to Me, your letter and open the Blue Book, that you will hear the love letter that I write back to you, that you will know that I always call you to love, love, love and love. And that you will be called to discern, you will be called to do what is right. You are called to be moral. You are called to live the life as God is calling you to live, and yet those around you may disappoint you, may even try to cause you great harm.
Study the Way of the Cross, My child, study the Resurrection, study the Ascension into heaven. Know that the Holy Spirit is always with you, giving you greater wisdom and knowledge and love. I am with you today and always, My precious child. Do not be afraid.
Song: Be Not Afraid
6. Jesus: Do not make a mountain out of a molehill, for it was water you say. For they are material things. It may cause you anxiety and suffering. And yet if you know that I am always with you, you will look at all the blessings, that you have been given and you will be filled with gratitude, seeing how it was Me who moved the box. It was Me who helped this go out. It was Me who showed Myself and lifted the load for you. It was Me, your beloved Savior, it was Me, child. You will know it was Me, if you stop and you think about all you have accomplished, and the little things that are material that may break, mud pies thrown in your face, bananas that you slip on, when I caught you and you didn't fall at all. Huh! Did you say thanks, or did you talk about that mishap as if it had some kind of glory? Instead of coming to Me, like those that were healed of leprosy – how many came back to say thank you, for the gifts that were given? Do you come back right away or do you talk endlessly about the same thing and miss the gift given?
7. R. I think that I shall never see a poem a lovely as a tree, or the beauty of a rose, as the sign by the Divine Almighty God, or some of the fish beneath the sea with such brilliant colors, that I can hardly believe, that they are real. And there is all the other things, in that world, so many times, that is unseen by many eyes, all the corals, and all the beauty. The beauty of the brilliant blue waters, that maybe only a few may see. It is the seen and the unseen, that we must think about. For there is so much that we do not know, and there is so much for us to see, that we cannot see, for God created the seen and the unseen. And we cannot know it all. God is the ultimate mystery, and our knowledge of things may be quite shallow. How prideful to think that we know it all, and really miss the opportunity to learn more and more and more, that will help us for all eternity to know God even more deeply, more vibrantly.
Dear God, let our relationship with You, be a relationship in which we really see ourselves as on a journey, in which we are like the little children, that are just learning to see things – he says, and they can hardly talk, – box – sun – floor. And their eyes are big and their hearts are ready and they want to see and they want to know – sky – dog. They see their baby brother, they look into the eyes of their mother. They see the smile of their father, eyes that are bright-eyed and wide.
What happens to man that as he goes and he goes and he goes, he may not hardly see at all. He listens to that dark ho-hum that maybe satan tells him inside, how 'so and so' pinched his tail or pulled his pig-tail or stole something that was that dear, was it really that dear, all these material things, are they really that dear? What really counts is each other, right? What really counts is the love of a friend. What really makes the difference, is that we know that there are others that are close to us that we can trust, that are faithful. Gifts given - like love -can be gifts given that last forever. That is love, for love never dies.
8. R. I took voice lessons in college and I had this most wonderful voice teacher. He was Italian and he was very, very talented. He came in one day and he was never the same after that. As he was backing up, a small child, about 2 years old, had gone into the street behind his tire, and he rolled over the child and the child died. He got up that morning thinking that he would go to college, which was where I was, and that he would teach singing and lift people's hearts with voice, all day. And when he left his house, and it wasn't his fault, a small child ran into the street behind his car and he ran over the child. Now for the rest of his life, he had to deal with the fact, that when he got out one morning, unbeknown to him, that he would carry this cross with him for the rest of his life, that his family would carry the cross, that the woman that had the child would carry the cross, and nobody wanted it to happen, and yet it did happen. It happened and it seemed like it took the smile out of his heart. He went his way for quite awhile after that, but he never seemed like he was the same and it affected his whole family.
You know we can't plan everything. He did not plan that. He did not want that. A person that is robbed, does not want the person to come into their house and to rob their things or to kill them. There are victims in this world, victims of others that are doing unkind things to them, and yet because of evil, others have to put up with things, that maybe are nobody's fault, or maybe are the results of evilness that has been projected into the world. We can't control everything, can we? I can't control the weather tomorrow. There are many things in my life that I can control, but I can't control everything. A person that goes on a plane and the plane crashes, had they known that, that plane would have been a plane that would have gone down and 240 people died, lost their lives in it – would they have boarded that plane? What about the people that lost so much in the hurricanes that ravaged Florida in 2004, especially if it uprooted the whole house? Don't you think that it is time to realize, that we have to depend on God, that we can't control it all. How foolish indeed!
If one reads the scriptures from the beginning to the end – the reason why I love to read Fr. Joe's book is because I can see the picture in Salvation History. I can see the prophecies, I can see the prophets, I can see how the people of God disobeyed, and I can see how they made themselves suffer because of what they did. And I can see it all through Salvation History how man keeps on doing more and more damaging things by disobeying God. I can see the messages that God has given to me for 23 years. I can see the gift of the priest at Mass, the Sacraments, Baptism. Doesn't it make you want to shout? And then I can see somebody else, that can just do something evil, because of jealousy and anger and envy, and they can spend their whole life trying to get away with that. Eventually it catches up, because God is just. It is up to us here today, to pray for the people of the world and of the Church and our priests, that soon, very soon, God will help us to spread His love letters, these messages throughout the whole world, that the hearts of the people of this earth, will be hearts that are consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Jesus was in the garden, and He took with Him His Apostles, and they slept. I guess they were tired, after they had eaten the dinner. They slept! They did not understand what Jesus was going through, and He went away and He said to them, "Can you not wait with Me?" And He did it 3 times! And then they came and Judas betrayed Him with a kiss. We may suffer betrayal by people that we love, and it really hurts. It hurts when others are mean to us, it hurts when others that we trust, are not trustworthy. And yet Jesus shows us, that He suffered because He loved Judas. He chose Judas and Judas betrayed Him with a kiss.
9. Hail Mary
10. Hail MaryR. Let's all say this with all of our hearts –
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, etc.
Jesus was Whipped at the Pillar
R. His flesh was torn. His Blood flew in the air. They whipped Him and they tore His back, and His flesh and His legs, and they laughed, and they took turns beating the Son of God, for our sins. So if we think that somebody did something to us, let's measure what they really did and then let's focus on the truth. The more we are one with Him, the more that we know He is with us, in all things - all things! And it takes faith, and it takes hope and it takes love, and it takes the grace that God outpours to us, to increase in us those virtues of faith, hope and love, and for us to cooperate with that grace, and to want to have that faith, to want to believe, to believe the seen and the unseen. If all you are going to believe is what you see, then we are just like Thomas.
John 20: 29 Jesus said to him: You believe because you can see me. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet believe.
1. R. How little indeed we really know, insight into the hidden mysteries. He tells us many things to help us be drawn ever closer to Him, but we just don't know that much. Do you know? Do we know the day that we will be taken? Do we know the diseases that we may have? Do we know what will happen tomorrow? Do we know if we will have a goodnight's sleep? Do we know that He may call us to blindness or to some physical handicap? Do we know? Do we really know? Do we know what will happen to the people that are in our lives? Do we really know? Then isn't it so idiotic for us to try to manipulate, to control, to coerce with the devil, to listen to what he is trying to say, that we can control, when we know we can't control? Isn't it far better that we spend that time alone with God, every day, sometime during the day, and try to communicate with Him, in a way in which He reveals to us, insight into the will of the Father, and that we don't oppose the will of the Father because we don't like it that way. Dumb, isn't it? To oppose the will of the Father, and then expect to have any kind of joy in our life, to keep isolating ourselves, until we get to be old and we are all by ourselves, and then find out that we are really lonely, but we pushed everybody away because we didn't want to trust anybody. How do we learn to trust God when we don't trust other people down here? God didn't intend it that way. God has put people with us to work together. Is it hard? Yes, it's hard, because we are all imperfect. But, it is in Him, that we will bear much fruit.
2. R. What do we really learn in relationships? The message that He gave me today, and I went through Blue Book 14 – every place that I opened Blue Book 14, it was talking about relationship - relationship with God, relationship with others. Fr. Carter said, in one of his Newsletters, not being slavishly dependent, being, just exactly, how God wants us to be. Not being lustful, in a relationship, not doing something we shouldn't with somebody that's married. Relationship. Think about it. Don't you think we should think about it, about relationship, that God intends us to have relationship, that God commanded us to love Him first, and to love our neighbor, as our self. Doesn't that demand relationship? Can we really spend our whole life, trying to be, by our self, and pushing the people that God has put into our life - out. Think of our place in salvation history, we don't want to push people, God wants us to work with - out. How can we expect joy in our life, when God is knocking at our door and He is bringing somebody to us and we push them away, to do it alone? And He said you got to work with this guy. The two of you can do a lot of 'stuff', that will help a lot of souls." And you say, "Oh, I don't want that guy here. No, no. I don't want to work with anybody". Relationship. God is love. He is teaching us about relationship.
3. R. And then we have a responsibility, that if somebody is just rebellious, and God has called us to have order, like in a religious order, or in our family – we just don't let anybody in there, to disturb the family and say, 'come on in' when God doesn't want that. So there's that balance between what we tolerate and what is God's will and how to be loving. And so if somebody is not even suppose to be working with us, in our lives, because this is not our responsibility, it may be hard if they keep coming, trying to manipulate, so that they can force their way in, because by letting them in, then we are not doing what God wills. God has called us to obey His will and serve Him for His glory – not our will for our glory.
And so a priest has to look at that, he has to see if a person keeps coming and coming and coming and coming. Is it his responsibility? Is 'this' his responsibility? Is 'that' his responsibility? What is God calling him to do and that takes time alone with God, that takes grace to be able to discipline ourselves to discern, to beg for a more virtuous way of living. And that's why the time before the Blessed Sacrament is so important, because God outpours His grace in the Eucharist, when we go to Mass and sit in front of the Blessed Sacrament, God fills us more and more abundantly with His life. And the more we are filled with His life, the more that our decisions are the decisions that are God's will, are the decisions that God wants us to make. And the more that we know that God has called us, especially to be 'a leader', in teaching others about religion, we want to do what is holy, what is God's will. We must go to God and pray for direction to be filled more with His grace, like a priest before the Blessed Sacrament. We may suffer ourselves and others may suffer. God has called us to this intimate union, especially religious - and we do want adoration chapels all over the world, the Mighty Medicine.
4. Jesus speaks and He says: Spread the consecration to My Sacred Heart and to My Mother's Immaculate Heart, as I have asked you in this Movement. For I have called the Movement, Shepherds of Christ to help in the renewal of the Church and the world, that you will be praying for the priests, that have so many demands that are placed on them today, because they are fewer and fewer. And yet I have given you these tremendous messages to help prepare the way, for the Reign of My Sacred Heart, but you must have faith, little ones. You must reach more and more for that grace that I am outpouring to you, by being before the Blessed Sacrament and doing adoration and being in love with God. I call you to love Me. I call you to give to God the love that is His due. I am Jesus, listen to Me and have a life of joy. Even in suffering, you will have joy, if you live the Father's will, first and foremost in your life.
5. Jesus: I am calling you, in your life, to do the Father's will, not to have a plan of your own, where you set things up and then you try to manipulate, how you can make these things happen, so that you try to force disorder, not according to the will of God the Father, but according to your disordered will. Foolish little ones, running down the wrong road, that leads to a dead end.
6. Jesus: Pray My little ones, these prayers, for you do not understand how much grace I am pouring out to you as you pray the Shepherds of Christ Prayers, for your priests, the Church and the world. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock. And if you want to see, pray the prayers and you will see the gifts, that will be given, for I am faithful to this promise that I made to Fr. Carter 20 years ago. Do you dare to hear the request I gave to him? Do you want peace and joy in your life? Spread the prayers throughout the world. Pray that the hierarchy will listen to the letter given to them and begin the prayer chapters, with great devotion to My Heart and the heart of My Mother. But you can look the other way, and you can watch the football games all day, and you can come with the next sport that comes, and you can hide, as if you are not in the world, and all of a sudden you too, will be in your 60's, and the things that you once counted on, are quiet different than they were.
Where were you when you had the chance to be praying, so that things would be in justice, the way that they should be, in harmony, in order, rooted in the Christian life. Where were you - turning your head the other way and saying it didn't matter what I did. Whenever you come to Me and listen to what I have told you, I give to you this promise, the promise I made to Fr. Carter – that to those who pray the prayers, I will take them deeply into My Heart and into My Mother's heart. There you will know the riches to help to bring about the renewal of the Church and the world, in which the priests will receive many graces, to be able to discern and to live more deeply, intimate union with God.
This is a major promise that I am making to you, to those who pray these prayers on this December 5th: December 5th I appeared to Rita at the point of death on the cross. Mary appeared 2 1/2 years on the 5th.

Jesus: Mary appeared all these 5ths in Clearwater, Florida. A handful of people come on the 17th of December, and many say it doesn't matter. You have children and grandchildren. You have people that are growing up in the world today. You have priests that need these prayers. Pray for the Church. I am promising to you this night, tremendous grace will be outpoured to those who pray the prayers that I gave to Fr. Carter, to pray for the priests, the Church and the world, centered in devotion to My Heart and to the heart of My Mother. This is My Movement, I have been sent by God the Father to you, for these 20 1/2 years. Listen to Me.
On December the 5th of 1996, I appeared on the cross with My mouth moving because, no one was listening. Now 18 years later, I am speaking to you, because no one is listening. Do you see your world? Do you see the priests that need your prayers? Do you see how they are dwindling, and yet you bury your heads in the sand and you say, "It's just a happening. Things won't affect me and my family - this is for somebody else." Wake up - open your eyes - Listen to Me – You are like the people who ignored the warning I gave to the prophets of old. Can you say it won't happen to you, when the world is so much different when you are 65 and 70, when your grandchildren are just being born and they will live in this mess? I am telling you, to those who pray these prayers, they will be richly blessed. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock. The world focuses on the physical life, day and night, and ignore the spiritual life.

The Crowning With Thorns
R. And Jesus was crowned with a crown of thorns. Jesus was not given a crown of gold or silver or jewels, but He, the Divine Almighty God, the Son of God, withstood this treatment for our sins. And today as the world just shrivels more and more, in the selfishness and the focusing on the things of the world, they ignore, the little simple directions that He has given to us, the rosary meditations, the letters of His love, the homily books, so that men will rely more and more on His Word and the Eucharist, that they will pray for the priests, the Church and the world, weekly. In Fr. Joe's book, at the end, are the prayers, besides the homilies rooted in the Word and the Eucharist, the Bread of Life.
"Come unto me all who are weary, He says, and I will give you rest." Where will that rest come from, when men seek more and more the things of the world, when the little things that mean so little, become the focus, and the things that do mean a lot, to eternal salvation, are not even looked at or examined.
1. Jesus: I have given the directions that have come from My Father. I have given to you the Blue Book 14, which are the messages given after Mary's apparition in Clearwater. And many will ignore what I have given to them. And they will say it means little or no difference. And yet, I am preparing men for the Reign of My Sacred Heart. What I have called you to do here, can help to change the world. I appeared on December the 5th, of 1996, 18 years ago, only days before Mary's apparition in Clearwater, December 17, 1996, I appeared at the point of death, My mouth was moving and it was to tell you that no one is listening.
2. R. And I went to Holy Cross-Immaculata after seeing Mary for almost 2 1/2 years on the 5ths appearing to me and I began to pray the rosary, and she did not appear. And before me was the crucifix and Jesus became so big. And Jesus looked like a man that was dying on the cross, a full-bodied man, and His mouth was moving. At the point of death, and His mouth was moving so exaggeratedly that I could not even see how He could end up doing this. And I did not understand and in horror, I sat there and I cried because of the sight and cried for 3 days. And later that night, at the rosary on the 5th, which we do like we do now, He said that He appeared that way with His mouth moving, because nobody was listening to Him. This was 18 years ago today. So here we are at the 5th and there is only a few of us here.
And Jesus says: And no one is listening to Me today.
3. R. And Mary appeared here then, on December the 17th, of 1996, Mary appeared, and it is in Blue Book 13. And for 7 1/2 years Mary appeared on the building here, until somebody knocked her image head off, the image head, with a slingshot, around 5:00 a. m. in the morning, and that was March the 1st, of 2004. And since we have still put out probably now, 18,000,000 Priestly Newsletters, in books and loose, since 1994. But the prayers that Jesus asked us to pray are so important to Him, and I have watched what has happened to those who pray these prayers. If you want to complain about the priests or if you think the priest isn't exactly what you think he should be, then stay there every day at Church and pray these prayers Jesus gave Fr. Carter. If you can't go to church, pray them in your house for him, because he needs a lot of grace. He has a hard job. God has asked us for 20 years to pray in this Movement, for our beloved priests, for the Church and the world, and they have a hard job. How selfish can we become, to go to Church one hour a week and go in there and criticize our priests, when he is on duty day and night. And maybe they all aren't perfect, then let us pray for them, because they have a hard job, and they are such a gift.
Song: A Priest is a Gift From God
4. R. Help me spread these prayers, please, 20 1/2 years later, all the books and gifts that God has given. Look at the world, look at our grandchildren. Look at how the health insurance and all the stuff has changed, ever since we started, and you have got one more thing to accept that you have almost no control over. God has asked us for such a little thing, to pray these prayers in the Prayer Manual, and I have watched the results. To those who pray these prayers, they have been given tremendous blessings, and they have been taken deeper and deeper in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. People that started these prayers in 1994 are still praying these prayers because praying the prayers has changed their lives. The Shepherds of Christ Prayers are so powerful. Our priests need these prayers that Jesus asked us to pray. Our Church needs the prayers. The world needs the prayers. Jesus told Fr. Carter to pray these prayers, we have them in 8 languages. Please listen!
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. Jesus appeared on the cross at the point of death, a full-bodied man, and His mouth was moving and I cried and cried and cried and cried, and that night He said "nobody is listening to Me." And still after that, He put Our Lady on this building, here, for 7 1/2 years, and you watch, there is like 3 or 4 of us here tonight. Isn't that great. I know they are praying in China. I don't know who else is praying, but I will tell you things all around us are changing. And the more that He told me about World War II, I saw 66,000,000 people were killed in World War II, because they did not listen to the message of Our Lady of Fatima. Let us give the Sacred Heart of Jesus devotion. Doesn't God deserve it?
5. And He says: I love you. I love you. I love you. I was crowned with thorns.
R. And the blood ran down His face and in to His ears, and His teeth went through His mouth, and His eyes was sealed shut from the blood from the whacks to His head, and His whole body was a bloody, raw mess, because of our sins. Faith, if there was faith like a mustard seed, it would make a big difference. But the faith is waning in the whole world. The faith to believe that God would give these messages, even after Our Lady of Clearwater appeared here. It's funny, but her image head was knocked off and now there is all these beheadings. It just is strange.
6. Hail Mary
7. Hail Mary
8. Hail Mary
9. Hail Mary
10. Hail MaryThe Carrying of the Cross
1. Jesus: I come to you with greatest love, My precious one, I have given to you the secrets of My Heart. Do not turn away. I ask you to listen to the message that I have given to you this night, that you will support the Shepherds of Christ Ministries, that you will help to spread the materials that I have given in these books to the world, that you will pray the prayers with this devotion to the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart, and that you will spread the consecration throughout the whole world, that bishops will consecrate their dioceses to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, that people will consecrate their homes to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, that children will consecrate themselves in the schools, that there will be unity and order, that Jesus will be the King and Center of the hearts of the men on this earth. Your power is in this, that God is the King of your hearts.
2. R. You know, He asked us to write a letter, this is all in that Blue Book 14, too, and then you write this letter to God, and then like I was opening up the Blue Book 3, and that was Fr. Carter's favorite book he said. It is so beautiful. Every book is different and they are so beautiful. Like the one, that when I opened it up and then it said, doing God's will, is not dependent upon what other people are doing around you. Doing God's will is doing God's will, and we may have to do God's will in suffering. But you know, if you look at the Old Testament, you see how they were disobedient to God, disobedient to God, disobedient to God, and they made their own sufferings. The prophet would say this is what's wrong, this is what's wrong, this is what's wrong. They would disobey and then they made a bunch of suffering, for themselves. It just went on over and over and over again.
Isn't it the same thing, that you know what is right, but we just keep on pushing, in rebellion against the rules God has given to us, to love, unity, order. The marriage is the way that God has called us to be married, the families that we are to have, like, Olive plants around the table, that we are to work with each other, that we are to work in religious orders with each other, to try to not be jealous and envious, but to work as one glove on a hand, so that we can really accomplish a lot, that we don't try to manipulate, so that we can end up making God, do it our way. What a farce is that! To be in a religious order and then try to do your own will. It is just a paradox! Being in a religious order means that there is order and God is on the top and you are under. Right? Sorry! I get excited! After 23 years of messages, this is excitement. It is so simple to do what He has called us to do, and it is like Eve in the garden. All she had to do was just not eat of that one tree. That's all He told her. Do not eat of the forbidden fruit, but sure enough, she had to go over there and listen to the devil. The devil lured her, she had to eat of that. And then she disobeyed God, after all the gifts she was given.
3. R. I want to pray for all those intentions that we have been praying for, since we came down here on the 2nd, having great faith, that God will hear our prayers and answer those prayers. We love You God, so deeply. Hear our prayer, please, for healing, for love, for the priests, the Church and the world, for the hierarchy, for the prayer chapters, for our families, for ourselves, for any of the particular problems that we brought, for Blue Book 14, for the cover of Blue Book 14, to spread the rest of the books, and for funds and grace. We need funds. Help us to do this.
4. Hail Mary
5. R. You know, you watch the devastation of World War II, and it is like the Old Testament, where they were given so many warnings and they wouldn't listen to what they were suppose to do, and then there was the Babylonian Exile. And then the Jewish people suffered so much, and the loss of their homes and brought into exile. It was just so sad. And it is like they made their own bed, because they wouldn't listen to the message that God gave to them. And then you look at World War II, and you see that Our Lady gave this message at Fatima, and I have seen Mary for 20 years appear to me. I saw Jesus at the point of death on the cross, 18 years ago. I am not going to change my story. That is how it is. Read Blue Book 13, December 5th, 1996, 18 years ago. Read the story. And then Mary appeared on the building here, 12 days later. Wow!
6. Hail Mary
7. Hail Mary
8. Hail Mary
9. Hail Mary
10. Hail MaryMary: I stood beneath the cross of my Son and my heart was in such anguish, for the little ones that would lose their souls. I appear, I appear, I appear and I am ignored.
Jesus is Crucified and Died on the Cross
1. R. So two months ago on October the 5th, I saw Our Blessed Mother praying with us. And she is praying with us.
Dear Heavenly Mother, please, through your powerful intercession, pray with us that we can spread these prayer chapters, spread the messages of Jesus, that the world will listen to the message, of devotion to the Sacred Heart and to your Immaculate Heart. Help us Heavenly Mother, despite all the weird-o things that may go on, where there are just glitches in our life, help us to stay focused on you.And Mary speaks and she says: And you must do, my messenger, the will of God. For it may be in his timing that he thinks that this will happen, or in her timing that she thinks this will happen, in trying to tell you what you are to do. But it is in God's way that this mission is to be led. As the co-founder, I call you, my child, to do as Jesus calls you to do. Doing the will of God, is not being coerce by others and in their timing. It is listening to Him, and it is doing as He asks you to do.
2. Mary: My dear child, there was a small hole that was drilled in a board. And along came one man and he stuck in a small screw and it was just too big of a hole for the little screw. Another man came and he tried to stick in a screw that was too big, and it did not fit. And so finally, the third man came and he put the exact screw into the hole and it was a perfect fit. When God chose you as the co-founder, Fr. Carter was chosen as the founder, and the fit was the way that God the Father intended it to be. When I appeared as Our Lady of Clearwater, here, in this building, it is still the Building of the Two Hearts, to spread the devotion as you have been called by God, not as others see fit, not as others want you to run this Movement. It is the Movement of God the Father, who called Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock. Look at the book, the Guiding Light and see the shepherd, for he leads his flock to the light.
3. Mary: So if you have been called by this great honor, to help in this Movement, you are to serve God. You are not to serve yourself. You are not to decide how it is for your gain. It is by the will of the Heavenly Father, as you will see in the Blue Book 14, that I was called by Him, to appear as Our Lady of Clearwater.
4. Mary: The date was the date given by your Heavenly Father, of December 17th, that this date is an anniversary that is to be celebrated with a procession, that you will honor Our Two Hearts, that you will honor me as Our Lady of Fatima in the Americas, Our Lady of Clearwater, December 17th, is the day that God the Father chose for my apparition here.
5. Mary: I am Our Lady of Clearwater.
6. Mary: I am Our Lady of Fatima in the Americas, tremendous grace of healing are given from this site in Clearwater, Florida and I still appear here as I appear to you this day. I am Our Lady of Clearwater.
7. Mary: I am Our Lady of Clearwater.
8. R. As Our Blessed Mother appears, God the Father spoke to me and He said He wants His book, Blue Book 14 to be published right away.
And Mary said once again as she appeared: 'I am Our Lady of Clearwater' - She is adorned in light.
R. Mary is appearing and so beautiful. Mary is Our Lady of Clearwater.
9. R. And the light is just beautiful, the lights all around Jesus and the crucifix and around Mary.
And she says one more time: I am Our Lady of Clearwater.
R. The book, Blue Book 14, as God the Father Speaks After Clearwater – It is a book in which God the Father spoke all through the book, giving to me two very important messages that Fr. Carter took very seriously in the beginning. And Our Lady appeared as Our Lady of Fatima on March the 20th, so big. And that rosary too, has been out there for years, that Fr. Carter discerned long ago, and the rosaries that he led.
Mary: I am Our Lady of Clearwater. You have been given a great gift here. Pray fervently, that the world will listen, after 18 years to the voice of Jesus, sent by God the Father, that the book, Blue Book 14, will be printed and His message after Clearwater will reach the world. This is your confirmation, that God wants this book published. Hear me, the Lady of Clearwater. God the Father Speaks After Clearwater, in Blue Book 14.
10. Hail Mary
Hail Holy Queen
The MemorareMary: I am Our Lady of Clearwater. I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my heart was in such anguish, for my little ones that would be lost forever. God the Father has asked you, my children, to print the Blue Book 14, for He speaks to the world after Clearwater.
R. We will have activities on the 16th and the 17th of December, so we will put those on the internet. Hope that you can come. The retreat will be the same in China, Indiana and I hope you can tune in or come to China. Amen.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Of all the maidens that God could have chosen it was you, oh shining Star of Heaven.Oh, there is not one so fair as thee, my beloved Mother Mary.
Oh Mary, Mother of us all.
She doth appear as a wonder so fair indeed,
A permanent sign of God's love.
A Woman clothed in gold.
One that glistens with the radiance of a golden tone,Her beauty dancing in the sunlit hours of every day.
In morning splendor, in dancing light at noon day as the sun glistens on her rainbow glow and at night she has appeared on special dates in golden splendor and light.Would you quote the Scripture for Mary so fair.
"Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant, and in labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth." (Revelation 12: 1-2)
Would you see her as she appeared in little villages in the 20th century, tucked in hills and out of the way places.
If you missed these enormous signs from heaven, of one so fair, she appears there clothed in the golden sun of the day, reflecting her radiant beauty painted by the hand of the Father. She is His chosen maiden so fair.
She appears daily, she is there by day and beneath the black shadows of night, she does not slumber, but calls to her children of light to come through her golden doorway and let the light of Christ shine in their souls.
She appears one so fair, by day and sometimes by night clothed in radiance and golden, her garment hemmed with glistening sunlight. She once appeared to a few and her visits fleeting in remotest places, she remains a Woman Clothed with the Sun, the sun dancing on her garments of rainbow color on a busy, busy corner for all to see, in the state of the sun, sunny Florida. She is a Woman painted by the brush of God.
And do you know the wonder of one who calls the children far and wide, to hear the voice of her Son, Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock.
Mary, the heavenly maiden, to call them home to His Heart.
Oh, of one so fair, do we not boast and praise our God and thank Him for such a wonder.
Oh, to Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth, we cry, help us to do what you asked for at Fatima and help us in our mission of telling the world of your Son's desire to spread His Movement so men will be Shepherds of Christ.

Today is the Queenship of Mary
Messenger:
| The Queen mounts her throne among shouts of joy The angels surround this heavenly throne Her children love her and worship their God. The Sacred Heart of Jesus reigns in the hearts of her children. He is the King of their hearts. A trumpet blare for one so fair, a blare of music for our starved ears. From the Magnificat, Mary speaks with the lilt of the voice of one so pure and holy. (NOTE: Read this with the lightness of the voice of the Virgin filled with the Holy Spirit and in the humility of one so fair. |
Luke 1:46-55
The Magnificat
And Mary said:
My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
from their thrones
and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
of Israel his servant,
mindful of his faithful love
--according to the promise
he made to our ancestors--
of his mercy to Abraham
and to his descendants for ever.
Messenger:
| Among shouts of joy our Lady speaks
liltingly in a heavenly voice and we gape at the sound of her sweet voice and behold the beauty of this maiden so sweet and fair. |
God the Father speaks:
|
Amen, amen I say to you My beloved Apostles of the Sacred Heart. You may worry
and struggle now, but a King looks on you with the greatest love as you surrender more and
more everyday to do My will that this day will come to your earth, the day of the Reign of
the Sacred Heart. Do not get caught up in the mysteries of the way men act and perceive things, but put your gaze ever more on the mystery of My Divine Son and how much He truly loves you. You are caught in the wonder of the earth and the firmament. My beloved, so much more glorious is the insight into My Divine Mysteries. My plan is given here to bring about the Reign of My Son's Sacred Heart and the triumph of your Mother's Immaculate Heart. I am a God of justice and of right. I am your heavenly Father. I am the Carpenter, the One with the plan. You are but children of Mine, creatures of the earth, and yet My love for you is so great. I gave you My only begotten Son as One offered for your sins and, men, you smite Me, your Father. You ignore your Mother when I give you such gifts in your churches of her presence forever with you and the Holy Spirit working with her bringing forth your holiness. I painted with My hand your Mother pleading to her young ones, and she appears everyday, and you ignore this sign and gift I give you. What more could convince you? You want another sign and another while you sheepishly continue your sinful ways. My children, My children, help Me to reach your brothers, oh please, they have plugged up their ears and covered their eyes. How is it your Creator cries to the creatures and they ignore Him? |
God the Father speaks:
|
Now the beauty of one so fair
July 5, 2000, I painted as a golden wonder before you and allowed such photography that
all might know Our heavenly presence when Mary speaks in the Rosaries from the Hearts
of Jesus and Mary. And My Son delivers, in these rosaries, the message I give to you
as your heavenly Father. Oh children of the earth, be attentive and listen to Me, I plead as your heavenly Father that your wills be aligned to My will and you serve Me. Oh children of Eve, your Mother Mary cries to Me, for she pleads your case, and I have given in to her requests that the children be spared if they turn from their ways and love their God. She wanted to come to you as the Woman adorned in sunlight by day and fashioned in a special way by nightfall in golden mystical light in the dark night, as her favored children sing so fervently songs of praise and love to God, and they sing to her, a Mother who has never forgot them. Oh children, listen to Me and help Me reach your willful brothers through your fervent prayers. My Son gave Himself as a Sacrifice for your sins, meriting the graces available to you the sinful children of Eve, and you will not even pray after I have granted this special gift of Mary on the building. Your eyes do not see her, or you would have changed your ways by now. What sign would you respond to, My silly earth? |
God the Father speaks:
|
I give you My Son with you in
the Eucharist, and you do not treasure this gift as you should. God remains with you today. Jesus, My Son, feeds you with His Body and Blood. He is truly present in His Divinity and Humanity. You need to pray as He has instructed, especially before the tabernacle. Amen. I am the Father, I have spoken, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. |
Jesus speaks:
|
I am the Son of God, on this glorious
feast sing songs of great praise to your God and love Him. Unite to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and pray to be possessed by God. Mary is your Mother, she is the one, pure, spotless, human person. She was conceived without sin, you must listen to her, it is the Father's will. You must be brought forth from her Immaculate Heart, her spiritual womb, as a child of God, a child of the light. Let the scales drop from your eyes as you sing praise and see, as never before, the glory and wonder of your God. |

Excerpt from December 12, 2001
Mary:
You take your water for granted. Many do not value the
gifts given by God in the Eucharist. I am Our Lady of the
Eucharist. Your priests are dwindling, fewer and fewer
Masses are being celebrated every day. My Son Jesus has
given you this Movement and He promises great grace for
the priests, the Church and the world when you pray
the prayers. Oh you do not know how serious it is
about your priests. I warn you today as your heavenly
Mother as Our Lady of Guadalupe. Here is a sign I wish
you to see.

Mary speaks:
Your babies are being murdered in the womb. You would think
that would be a sign to you that things are not right,
but you do not take notice. My Son Jesus is disrespected
by people for a joke. Oh my children, how to reach you before
it is too late. I appear Our Lady of Guadalupe/Our Lady of Fatima

THE SEVEN SORROWS OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
AT A SHEPHERDS OF CHRIST MEETINGFebruary 22, 1995
The Prophecy of Simeon
Mary, Joseph and the child Jesus went to the temple. Simeon, the prophet, inspired by the Holy Spirit, met them and told Joseph and Mary of the great sufferings of Jesus and Mary. He told Mary that a sword would pierce her heart. From that point on, Mary ever remembered the prophecy of Simeon whenever she beheld her child. When she looked at His little body, even as an infant, she knew He would suffer. Every time she clothed Him and watched Him at play, her heart was torn in her chest as she knew what He would suffer. And a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart, O Mary!
The Flight into Egypt
Joseph was told by the angel to flee. Joseph, Mary and the child Jesus had to flee because of what might happen to Jesus. They had to pack for a long stay. The child Jesus was so small! They left on their journey, hearts full of fear, trying to protect Jesus. They were forced to flee into Egypt.
Jesus Is Lost, In the Temple
Imagine the sufferings in Mary's heart when she realized the child Jesus was not with them. Think of how it would be to lose your child and not know where he was or if anything happened to him. With sorrow in their hearts, Mary and Joseph returned to Jerusalem to look for the child Jesus. And a sword, too, shall pierce your heart, O Mary!
Jesus and Mary meet on the Way to the Cross
Song: See the eyes that look at Mary, her tender infant child. See the child's Heart beat so tenderly, the Savior of the world!
See the eyes of Jesus and Mary as they met on Calvary. Mary's Heart knew Jesus' Heart so well! From the first moment of conception and throughout His life, Mary was so connected with Jesus and now she peered into His eyes. The crown of thorns adorned His Head! Blood ran down His face! A heavy cross on His back! Wounded, His whole body covered with bleeding wounds! And her whole life flashed before her, the life that she had spent with Jesus. This was the beloved child that she had held in her arms when Simeon told Mary that 'a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart, O Mary!'
Jesus Dies on the Cross
Mary stood under Jesus' cross as He was put to death. The child that she had held in her arms as Simeon prophesied, And a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart, O Mary! Now Jesus is dead on the cross! He gave His flesh, He gave His blood so that we might be with Him forever in heaven. He held not back. He gave His all. He calls out to us this day to see through the eyes of His mother as she appears and calls out with a Heart of great love, "Return to the love of my Son! He is with you this day. He remains with you, no less present than the day that He hung on the cross, in the Eucharist. He longs for you to come and be with Him. He is in your brother. How can you not love your brother when Jesus died for your brother?"
Her Heart was pierced with a sword. His Heart was pierced with a lance. What came forth was blood and water, the sacramental life of the church. He lives with us this day in the Church. He gives to us His sacraments, the source of His life! He gives to us the Sacrament of Penance whereby any sin that we commit can be taken away through the priest. He wants us to be so close to Him! He gives us everything to be close to Him. But we see with such limited vision only those things that are right before our face, when the true reality is that which we don't see with our eyes, the reality of the invisible divinity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God, in the consecrated Host! This is reality! This is our life! This is our power! This is God! And a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart, O Mary!
Jesus Is Taken Down from the Cross
If we ever doubted for one second that we were loved, we could visualize the picture of Mary as she sat beneath the cross with the lifeless, battered, bruised and bloodied body of her Son in her arms, the same child that she held when Simeon prophesied her suffering. He gave His last breath. He gave the last beat of His Heart. He gave His all! This is the way He complied with the Will of the Father. He came to show us the way. He died in perfect peace. To His death He was in peace because He knew the Father's love. The Father loves us so much that He gave His only begotten Son for love of us! The Spirit descended upon the Virgin Mary and the Word was made flesh! The love of the Two Hearts! Such immense love beating for us!
In all love there is suffering. Her Heart was pierced with a sword. His Heart was pierced with a lance. And a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart, O Mary!
Jesus Is Locked in the Tomb
And now Jesus, His body lifeless, is locked in a tomb! What cold reality for Mary to realize that His body is now gone! A stone separated her from her Son!
He gave His last breath! He gave the last beat of His Heart for love of each one of us! And she comes to us this day with her sweet, beautiful voice and she asks us to go to her Son and love Him! How can we refuse Jesus who spread His arms and gave His life for each and every one of us? How can we not trust Him when He loved us so much that He allowed them to tear His flesh, to crown Him with piercing thorns and, lastly, to hang Him on a cross? He truly gave His life for us! He, truly God, is with us this day, the same as the day He died on the cross, in the tabernacle! And we take it so lightly! Death has no power over Him! Locked in the tomb for three days, He rose triumphant on the third day as He had foretold. He comes to give us life. He gives us the sacrament of Baptism that initiates us into His life, that makes us children of God and heirs of heaven if we remain in the state of grace. He asks two things: love of God and love of one another! He came to show us the way and His way is love. To His death on the cross He loved each one of us! He calls out to each one of us here today to be His soldiers, to march on a world that has forgotten God, that has forgotten what it is like to love! It is a battle to live in this world. But the battle is won with hearts that are filled with His love, empowered by the grace and might that He pours out in the Eucharist. He calls out for us to come to the Eucharist and to the tabernacle and be fed with His very flesh and blood. To feed on Divine Life, the greatest nourishment, the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, the Son of God! This is the love He gives. This is the love He asks us to share.
Revelation 11: 19
Then the sanctuary of God in heaven opened, and the ark of the covenant could be seen inside it. Then came flashes of lightning, peals of thunder and an earthquake and violent hail.

Mary's head in Clearwater
Revelation 12: 1-6
Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant, and in labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth. Then a second sign appeared in the sky: there was a huge red dragon with seven heads and ten horns, and each of the seven heads crowned with a coronet. Its tail swept a third of the stars from the sky and hurled them to the ground, and the dragon stopped in front of the woman as she was at the point of giving birth, so that it could eat the child as soon as it was born. The woman was delivered of a boy, the son who was to rule all the nations with an iron scepter, and the child was taken straight up to God and to his throne, while the woman escaped into the desert, where God had prepared a place for her to be looked after for twelve hundred and sixty days.
Revelation 12: 10
Then I heard a voice shout from heaven, ‘Salvation and power and empire for ever have been won by our God, and all authority for his Christ, now that the accuser, who accused our brothers day and night before our God, has been brought down
Luke 1: 39-47
Mary set out at that time and went as quickly as she could into the hill country to a town in Judah. She went into Zechariah’s house and greeted Elizabeth. Now it happened that as soon as Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the child leapt in her womb and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. She gave a loud cry and said, ‘Of all women you are the most blessed, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. Why should I be honoured with a visit from the mother of my Lord? Look, the moment your greeting reached my ears, the child in my womb leapt for joy. Yes, blessed is she who believed that the promise made her by the Lord would be fulfilled.’ Yes, blessed is she who believed that the promise made her by the Lord would be fulfilled.’
And Mary said:
My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
in God my Saviour;

Jesus speaks:
I want My prayer given
Prayer for Union and this message to circulate
to all.
Mary
speaks: I desire the rosary of March 30, 1995
to circulate to all. Put it on cards like the
stations. Pass out at my site in Florida
with a little black and white picture at the top of
my image, with the address of the Building in
Clearwater, Florida and the other information for
Shepherds of Christ Ministries.
Funds are needed desperately because of the
problem in Florida, due to the breaking of the

From December 30, 2998
Jesus: I ask you to read the message of December 18, 1998. It is your prayers as you are united as one body that is affecting the world. It is your unity and fervor in praying.
Problems must be looked at, or they can tear you apart. All must proceed in the greatest love as one body. The focus is to remain united praying for grace and mercy for the earth. From Florida great grace is coming from God. You must wish the world good will and peace. You are the peacemakers. Florida is My garden to bring forth great fruit for the world. In the garden of Eden they did their own will, and they were cast from the garden.
On the hill of Calvary I hung on the cross and My Heart was consumed with love for souls. I ask you to study the message of December 19, 1998. On this December 20, 1998, I ask you to see My garden in Florida. The devil was in the tree in the garden of Eden. You are to be the transformed hearts under the crucifix. Great grace will be granted this Christmas to those praying from all material circulated from the Florida site. You must be motivated and filled with joy, you are the transformed hearts under the tree of life. My life is outpoured in the Eucharist at every Mass.
I ask you to put the three pictures here, Eden, China, and Lucia's vision.

New Eve and New Adam |
This is you My child. |
Florida is the garden of the New Adam and the New Eve.
From Mary's message Dec 19, 1996: My dear children, I give to you My Son Jesus born in a stable in Bethlehem on Christmas morn. He is the Almighty God, the Light of the World.
I am the Lady Clothed with the Sun. I am the handmaid of the Lord. I wail aloud bringing forth my children of the earth and you my children that will help me create a garden in Florida.
I am the New Eve. In this garden in Florida, I wish to bring forth good fruit, children loving God who have given their lives in consecration to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
Eve sinned and they were banned from the Garden. My Son shed the life saving Blood. He sweat Blood in the garden for the children of Eve.
I give to you my Son Jesus. A sign is given, Jesus hanging on the crosses of the world and the sign that appears for you is myself, Our Lady Clothed with the Sun. I am Mary your Mother. I ask you to circulate this message immediately.
I ask the children of the earth to respond to the messages I have given and to the words of my Son.
I ask you to consecrate your hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, to pray the rosary, to observe the First Saturday devotion and to make reparation to God for the sins committed against Him.
I am Mary your Mother, will you help me?

Mary the Lady of Guadalupe --
Florida is the garden of the NEW EVE.
It Is a Throne You Mount Here and It May Be a Chair of Suffering
Jesus:
...And I cried in the garden, and My anguish so great I sweat the saving Blood, but I place you in My garden here in the bowels of the earth, your garden now being under our Lady's Image in Florida and oh you thought from My Mother's knee, you would be taught by a little golden book of riddles and little happy children and what happened she taught you in fact how it really was. It wasn't a story of little candy canes that marched through candy land, it was a story of blood, sweat and tears, some good, some anguishing suffering that led you to the hill of Calvary and then you too had to choose between his throne or Mine.
His was a chair marked SELFISH.
My chair marked with the word SELFLESS.
It is from My site here in Florida, I wish to save you My little children. Many tears already have been shed beneath My cross, but to watch one shed tears is not the same as the one who actually sheds them.
Your world is on a fine line and I watch you cry for your children beneath My cross and I watch My Mother cry from beneath My cross on Calvary. She cried for all, the good and the bad. She cried the tears of victory for the ones who mounted the selfless chair and she cried the tears of sorrow for the ones who mounted the selfish chair. Her eyes were red as red could be, her nose dripped as yours when you cry, she sobbed aloud, her Heart so many faceted as the most precious stone hewn in My Heart, living in the greatest perfection...

The Agony in the Garden
1) Jesus speaks: They beat Me and condemned Me to death.
2) My men and women have trouble communicating.
3) You are different, you must put aside pride,
jealousy and work in love to communicate.
4) My retreats given in China will help you to be
more pure in your actions.
5) The intentions you have for doing something
should be pure.
6) I sweat Blood in the garden for your sins.
7) So many men and women are so argumentative —
they
will prolong a conversation trying to
win over simple matters —
wanting to
be right.
8) Mary is the New Eve.
Mary is pure.
Model your life after Mary.
Mary appeared in My garden in Florida
for over 7 years.
You argue and complain.
Some are so prideful —
they want to be right.
Where in your hearts can I find love for
your brother.
Some come from a place of being wounded —

Priestly Newsletter Book II - September/October 1997
In all this Mary offers an example. Selfishness was totally foreign to her. She did not belong to herself. She belonged to God. She was not closed in upon herself. She was completely open to God. When God spoke, she listened. When God pointed the way, she followed. She realized that life is not a process a person masters by carefully mapping out one's own self-conceived plans of conquest, but a mystery to be gradually experienced by being open to God's personal and loving guidance.
Selfishness, then, did not close Mary off from God's call. Neither did fear. God asked her to assume a tremendous responsibility. He asked her to be the Mother of Jesus. Mary did not engage in a process of false humility and say that such a great role was above her. She did not say that she did not have the proper qualifications for this awesome mission. Briefly, she did not waste time looking at herself, making pleas that she was not worthy, telling the angel he had better go look for someone else. No, Mary did not look at herself. Her gaze was absorbed in God. She fully realized that whatever God asked of her, His grace would accomplish. She fully realized that although she herself had to cooperate, this work was much more God's than hers.
Mary's words, then, truly sum up what is the authentic Christian response at any point of life, in any kind of situation: "I am the handmaid of the Lord," said Mary, "let what you have said be done to me".

Lourdes—And My Own Marian Experience
A few months after my visits to Fatima and Lourdes I was at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City. It was another special gift to be able to be there for the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe on December 12. What an inspiration it is to be there on this most special day—to see the Mexican people come from miles and miles away for this feast which is so dear to their hearts. Their devotion to Our Lady is most remarkable. Regarding myself, the entire pilgrimage prior to the feast day was rather subdued—peaceful, but no special experience. I remained in such a state on the feast itself up to and including most of the Mass at the Shrine. Then at communion time I was gifted with the same type of deep experience which had occurred at Lourdes and Fatima. I was rather suddenly struck with a deep conviction that I am protected by Mary's mantle and that I should not be afraid or worry. Again, this interior enlightenment was accompanied by the gift of tears.

From the Priestly Newsletter Book III by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
The Holy Spirit And Mary
The late Archbishop Luis M. Martinez of Mexico strikingly speaks of the ongoing cooperation of Mary with the Holy Spirit regarding the reproduction of Jesus within us: "Christian life is the reproduction of Jesus in souls…
"Now, how will this mystical reproduction be brought about in souls? In the same way in which Jesus was brought into the world, for God gives a wonderful mark of unity to all His works. Divine acts have a wealth of variety because they are the work of omnipotence; nevertheless, a most perfect unity always shines forth from them because they are the fruit of wisdom; and this divine contrast of unity and variety stamps the works of God with sublime and unutterable beauty.
"In His miraculous birth, Jesus was the fruit of heaven and earth…The Holy Spirit conveyed the divine fruitfulness of the Father to Mary, and the virginal soil brought forth in an ineffable manner our most loving Savior, the divine Seed, as the prophets called Him…
"That is the way He is reproduced in souls. He is always the fruit of heaven and earth.
"Two artisans must concur in the work that is at once God’s masterpiece and humanity’s supreme product: the Holy Spirit and the most holy Virgin Mary. Two sanctifiers are necessary to souls, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, for they are the only ones who can reproduce Christ.
"Undoubtedly, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary sanctify us in different ways. The first is the Sanctifier by essence; because He is God, who is infinite sanctity; because He is the personal Love that completes, so to speak, the sanctity of God, consummating His life and His unity, and it belongs to Him to communicate to souls the mystery of that sanctity. The Virgin Mary, for her part, is the co-operator, the indispensable instrument in and by God’s design. From Mary’s maternal relation to the human body of Christ is derived her relation to His Mystical Body which is being formed through all the centuries until the end of time, when it will be lifted up to the heavens, beautiful, splendid, complete, and glorious.
"These two, then, the Holy Spirit and Mary, are the indispensable artificers of Jesus, the indispensable sanctifiers of souls. Any saint in heaven can co-operate in the sanctification of a soul, but his co-operation is not necessary, not profound, not constant: while the co-operation of these two artisans of Jesus of whom we have just been speaking is so necessary that without it souls are not sanctified (and this by the actual design of Providence), and so intimate that it reaches to the very depths of our soul. For the Holy Spirit pours charity into our heart, makes a habitation of our soul, and directs our spiritual life by means of His gifts. The Virgin Mary has the efficacious influence of Mediatrix in the most profound and delicate operations of grace in our souls. And, finally, the action of the Holy Spirit and the co-operation of the most holy Virgin Mary are constant; without them, not one single character of Jesus would be traced on our souls, no virtue grow, no gift be developed, no grace increased, no bond of union with God be strengthened in the rich flowering of the spiritual life.
"Such is the place that the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary have in the order of sanctification. Therefore, Christian piety should put these two artisans of Christ in their true place, making devotion to them something necessary, profound, and constant." 18
