A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul

Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.


Messenger: Include Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center in 6:20 prayers.


Jesus speaks: I come to give you peace. I am Jesus, the Son of God, the Baby in the stable. I am the reason you celebrate Christmas. This Christmas I want you to adore the Christ Child in the stable, not another god. I want to make My home in your hearts. You must dwell in My Mother's holy Immaculate Heart. I am the VINE, you are the branches. You live to serve Me and walk in MY NAME.

  1. My shepherd apostles, never skip your daily Mass. I say never, you know when you are sick or snow bound, your children are sick, these are exceptions.
  2. Always spend one hour a day in adoration, preferably before the tabernacle.
  3. Live to love. Be humble, you can make mistakes, say you are sorry when you hurt others, live to do My will.
  4. Pray over this season. The best gift you can give to the family, the Church and the world is peace.

December 26, 1999, will come and all the "fanfare" will be over. I ask how is your soul and how did you help others in this holy season? The devil entices so many to sin, they choose to let go and give in to pleasure. Dads and moms give presents to children that drastically hurt their children spiritually because it is the "in" thing. Would you give a baby a knife because you were afraid of what someone might think?

Oh My children, My shepherd apostles, don't let go of the prayers and your peace. Satan will take every advantage of it all.

Your gift to the world is My peace. Live in truth. I want you to pray as never before. Don't give in to "fanfare" and lose your peace. Others are watching your ways. Let them see the light in you, My light. I am the Light of the World.

Children Need Time and Attention

God's Blue Book I Cover

December 8, 1993 - 5:30a.m. 

Jesus speaks: I am the way, the truth and the life. Those who follow My will-they will have the light of life. I give you My will so you will be the happiest. If you do not follow, you suffer. Things do not work accordingly, and it is an uphill battle. This is the day of the Lord. Rejoice in it and be glad.

If you come to Me for all you need, all else works out. When you go to the world, the world does not have what you need and nothing works out. I am the God of your fathers. What they thought was important is of no importance to them now. All that goes with them where they are now are the things of God. Life for them was a short journey, and then eternity. You know, they are no longer here. Did it matter how much money, how big a house? It did matter how they treated their children, but you (their children) still carry that with you. But their money, or job, or cows, or whatever-do you even know?

What you sow today, so shall you reap. If you sow hatred, you reap hatred. If you sow love, you reap love. This is alive in the hearts of your children. You do not pass on your pretty clothes or your beautiful furniture. You do not pass on your beautiful body. You pass on how you were as a person. Like ripples on a pond, it goes on and on.

All material things wither and fade like the grass and die. Fill yourself with the things of God. These are everlasting. The love you show today lives on in the hearts of your children. The anger and hate and selfishness live on in their hearts, too. What a legacy to be given to a newborn baby-generations of hate and selfishness!

So you thought you were so important. You thought children were children and they needed food and clothing and a place to stay. What children need is love and time. They need to know about God from their first moments. Fold their hands and teach them to look to heaven. Little ones are so close to me. They are so innocent, so pure. Teach little ones about God before they get to the schools. Those first years are so important for a child. It is there they are taught for life. Don't go to work and leave these treasures at home, paid for a price of silver. Nothing is worth that money. Their beautiful eyes tell you what a treasure you possess.

Oh people, your children are all treasures in the field. Their love goes on and lives from generation to generation. You had to have money and thus started the feelings of the deprived heart. 'I was not worth my mother's time. I sat around all day with beautiful little gestures and nobody watched. I was, more or less, in my parents' way. Oh no, little one. Your parents were sick. To receive such a gift and then leave it at home and go out to work…!

I cry for the little children, left who knows where, while their mothers are off with their big jobs. Go back to basics, America. What is wrong with your heads?

God, family, love, one another. You are all off at your soccer games, in front of your TV and at your work. More money, more education, more, more, more. It is all so simple: God, family, love, one another. Each makes your hearts happy. Each gives you a far greater treasure, the treasure of eternal life. Your children receive a legacy from you, a pocket of silver or a heart of love.

A diploma and a hardened heart. What a legacy for your children! They are pushed aside and then they are run around like little packages. You must be here for this game and there for that one and then watch that TV show. Nobody even talks to each other. What about the family meal where children sit and learn about love?

Your lives are so busy-for what? God, family, love. That is what is important. Today's world teaches money and things, not God, sex, not love, indulgence. Oh, My Heart is sad. Babies are murdered so some can get about their busy lives - doing what? Oh, pray for your brothers. Make your life a constant prayer. You can do more through prayer than anything else.

I am all powerful. I am at your side. I am counting on you, My soldiers of love, in a cold, cold world. Who warms the cold heart? There are so many cold hearts and those with cold hearts do not even feel the chill within their breast! They are blind and arrogant. They think they know it all. They know nothing. Love is the only answer. God must come first. I am here, little ones. I am alive in the eyes of the little children you leave behind. You miss the treasure for 30 pieces of silver. Pray, pray constantly. Your brothers need My help. Your prayers may save one of these cold hearts. Love your brothers through your prayers for them.

I am Jesus, Son of the Living God. I come to you this Christmas with a heart of love to give. The last thing in many hearts is God. They have a million gifts and games and decorations but not a thought for Christ's birth. Pray for your brothers. Make your gift to all of them your prayers. Spend more time with Me and less time at the malls. Your gift is the gift of prayer. Give to the poor. Don't buy more things.

Christmas is My birth. Your gift to Me and your brothers is the importance you place on God and your love. Nothing else even matters. I am Christmas. It is My birthday. And you can't find a card with Mary, My Mother, and Me on it! Oh, how sad!

I ask that you come and pray, that you be an example by your lives. Do not run amok. Come to Me and receive all your gifts. My gifts are everlasting and My Heart is on fire with love of you. The gift you receive is Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God. Nothing can even come close to this gift. I am God. I come to you every day in Communion. What could be more important? Bring your children to Mass, not to soccer games. Pray with your children. Play little games with them. Talk with them. They are the true treasures on this earth.

America, you have missed the boat and now you are drowning in the water. But the worst is you do not even feel the water going down your throats. You are hard and stiff. Oh, oh pray, little ones. Pray constantly. Make this Christmas a gift of prayer for all your brothers in darkness. Sacrifice your time in prayer. Give your own children the gift of your time. Give them the gift of praying and learning about God.

Religious stores should be swamped, but most cannot stay in business. Go to religious stores for your gifts. Buy bibles - what a gift to give - and "lives of the saints." Make Christmas a time to turn yourselves back to God. What a gift-a time for coming back to God, for spending time with your family and for loving one another! And then peace will reign in the hearts of men.

I love you so. I long to share My love with you, but you, My children, are too busy. Pray, pray, pray for this world. Offer your days to Me as a prayer. Your prayers are all being heard. This is a time of My greatest mercy. Pray for the Chaplet of Divine Mercy.

Priorities: God, Family, Love, Each Other

God's Blue Book I Cover

December 8, 1993 - After Mass

Jesus speaks: I have spoken to you about the family because this is the way that you will receive the strength you need to fight the world. Children are being lost before they have a chance to know any different. Children are open to begin with. If you feed them garbage, that is all they know. The world is ready to indoctrinate them.

Children are the answers to our prayers. Get them young. Teach them about God. Tell them about Me. Now tell the children, they are thirsty, they need your effort to get this message to the parents. Take time with the children. You can't be off doing your own things while your children are being indoctrinated by the TV. Wake up, America! You are losing your most valuable asset - your children! They are being lost for no good reason. Your lack of time! You need to get your priorities straight: (1) God, (2) family, (3) love, (4) each other.


Jesus speaks: Also include (Blue Book message, You are Raising Your Children Without God) for the Feast of St. Lucy, today, December 13, 1999. St. Lucy is the patroness of the blind.

You Are Raising Your Children Without God

God's Blue Book I Cover

December 22, 1993 - 5:00 a.m.

Jesus speaks: This is the day of the Lord. Slowly approaches My day, My birth. I am Jesus, Your Savior. I come as a little baby to save a big world. How could such a little one save a world and all those to come? This little one, My child, is God-made-man of Mary, just a baby coming in such silence, yet He comes with the might to save the world from its sin. He comes into a little stable and He comes without any proclamations from mankind. The beasts surround Him, the King of Glory. His court is made up of cows and sheep and His bed is dirty hay. Oh, how we await the birth of a baby. Everyone is eager to know of His arrival. All is ready, yet Mary does not have a place to lay her child. There is not room for them except with the beasts of the stable. Did Mary know that Jesus would be born in such poverty? She has said "yes" to all the events that are to happen. This is her firstborn baby and there is not a place for them.

Messenger: What things we are so eager to surround ourselves with and God is born in such poverty under the eyes of animals! The choirs of angels sing, but the world is numb to the event. Is this not how it is 2000 years later? It is Christmas Saturday, yet where are the statues and the stables remembering Christ's birth? Can you find any remembrances in stores? They are too busy. You cannot go and pay except for waiting in line at the money counter, a line to buy treasures, while the Son of Man waits in tabernacles all over the world and who comes?

Is the world today so blind that its people call this Day Christmas, but who is talking about Christ? Little snowmen, reindeer, Santa Claus, little sleds, red and green, and bells and holly. Should not every little detail be tended to? The family is all prepared. Gifts are wrapped to perfection yet where is the baby? Is a picture of Christ on any paper or magazine? He, the King of Glory, sits alone in every church while people wait in line with batteries and cards and wrap. How long do they wait in that line? Does it matter? Christmas is the most important event of the year to them and every detail must be tended to.

Wake up, America. How you are fixed on such foolishness! Ribbons and bows and wreaths adorn the house from the top to the bottom, inside and outside. Sound the trumpet! But the Son of Man waits in churches all over by Himself and the busier they become, the more the faithful ones rush too.

Jesus speaks: I am Christmas. It is My Birthday. The Son of Man waits in a tabernacle. There are no trumpets. There is not a line. He is alone! What is the first Commandment? "I am the Lord, thy God. Thou shalt not have any gods before Me." America, you have so many gods, but the true God is ignored!

My Heart aches at the blindness of My children. Every detail, indeed, is tended to but the details of the heart. Adorn the body, adorn the house, decorate the trees and lights and play the music. Music to Rudolf, music to the snowmen, music to Santa, but some will not even sing a song to Christ the King. What do they think the words to Silent Night mean?

The adoration pleases Me. This is My birthday. Who will even come to Me? Very few even know what Christmas is about. Does Christ reign in their hearts or do other gods? Who will you worship this Christmas, Christ the Savior or some other god? I wait, My children, just as I do every moment of every day. I never leave. I wait for you. I am Jesus, Son of the Living God. Please come and make in your hearts a place for Me. I want to come into your hearts and dwell there. Open wide to the King of Kings. Take the blinders off your eyes. Let Me in. Your hearts have turned to stone and your bodies are numb. What has happened to My beautiful ones?

Messenger: Think of a baby, so bright, so beautiful, so alive! His face reflects the courts of heaven. His eyes are beauty in themselves! Then look at the eyes of my children 20 years later! Look at the mall-how people dress and how they act. This 20-year old at the mall is reflecting your world! Is it not the same beautiful baby that was born? But look at people standing around-looking, for what? Is there anything at the mall to feed a soul? Look how big they are, these malls! Now they have two floors. You get lost! Is there anything of God at the mall? Do you feed your face, America, on every corner, but leave your soul withering and shriveled up!

Jesus speaks: This 20-year old is the child created by My Father to know, love and serve God, but, America, what did you teach him, when he was that little baby, about God? How was he to learn when you yourselves put God on a back burner or have no room for Him at all. You made this child at the mall. God made the baby. God gave you this baby with eyes still on heaven and you wiped the sparkle from his eyes and piped in your world. If he was fed on God and the things of heaven, if his heart was nurtured and cared for, he would still have sparkling eyes, the eyes reflect the heart within. You have taught him your ways, America. His eyes are not like those of babies. How can he look to heaven when you, yourself, know nothing about heaven? Take a baby young and give it what are the true treasures. Tell it about God. Make the Bible the book that is read and found on every table and by every bed.

America, you are missing it. You are raising children without a God. To be created to know, love and serve God, but not be taught anything about God! You, America, are responsible for taking the sparkling eyes and making them dull and changing his heart to stone. You, America are responsible for the stalking soul that goes about in such unrest, but has no training of God and no example from which to learn about God. You, America, have taken a beautiful child and made him into a bundle of unrest, nervous energy, jumpy looks, wild music. What do you feed this stalking soul? Is it sex? Is it self-indulgence. Is it drink? You gave it nothing of what it was created for and it has no source to obtain it. Children are given such unrest in their world: self-indulgent games, music, drink, magazines. And the soul lives on unattended! Such unrest stalks the young heart with no clue about how to be saved.

America, this is your child. How can he be saved? You kept him from the things of God and now he walks the malls searching with hollow eyes and a heart yearning to find that which he craves. Children are thirsty for Me. They are driven by their souls to know Me. America, what do you teach them? You are feeding them garbage and they are sick from it. A daily diet of garbage, of filth! You give them a handful of dirt for food! What would your body do if you fed it dirt? Oh, how you are hurting your loved ones, your little children. They come with a guardian angel they never know. They never even hear the word of God or, if they do, it is taught as a far-off thing in the distance. You will reach God as He is alive in your own hearts. You, America, have borne the children. You took innocent babies and slaughtered some. Then, to those who survived, you fed a daily dose of garbage!

But how could you give them anything but a hardened heart when yours was frozen in your very chest. You cannot teach what you do not know. These messages, America, are your answers. Read them to your young. Tell them about Jesus. My words are not hard to understand. You do not need much education. A second-grader could understand My messages here. What they need from you you can explain.

Where is the family circle of prayer? Where are our pictures on your walls? Where is My crucifix, by which you are saved? To My death I love each one of you, yet you do not know that My death and resurrection is of any account in your life.

This is not your life here. Your life will go on and on after your body goes. This is your test, America. You have made the test the finished product and you do not even take the test. It has become an end in itself. None of this matters here-all this materialism. I am so sad in My heart for My little ones being raised in this culture. Some homes do not even have a Bible or a crucifix.

Spread My word, My children. Teach your little ones about God. Spend time in prayer and tell your sick brothers about God. Tell them to read the Bible and pray to the Holy Spirit. He has the wisdom their souls crave. He gives gifts to those who ask. I am ready to shower you with My graces and lead you back myself. Plant the seeds. How can anything germinate if the seed was not planted. You are My sowers in a starving world. Plant the seeds to your brothers. Tell children about God. Their minds are so open. Get them young. Tell children in your family, your seed may save their soul. Tell them about My love. Don't miss any opportunity. Your reward will be great in heaven for all the seeds you sow!

Tell little ones wherever you are that Jesus is Lord and He is a God of Love. Tell children about their souls. They need to care for them and feed them. Tell them to fill themselves with good, not evil. Give them Bibles. There are children's Bibles. These plant seeds that will live in their hearts. They are My children and I love them. I need you to plant the seeds. I will provide water and sunlight. I will talk in their hearts and they will listen if you plant the seeds.

Have prayer groups for children. What a way to spread the faith! They do not see other children praying so they do not pray. I will attend those prayer groups and work in their hearts there. My power is mighty, but I cannot work in a barren desert. You must be constantly sowing seeds. Spend money on Bibles and give them to children. Give them little books about God. Tell them of My love. There is a magic in the book about God you give to a child. I will make it come alive in its life. But you must give the book. If you have any opportunity, tell children about Me and how I love them and I am by their side with such love and care for them. You can do so much for the children by doing so little. My magic will work on the little seeds you plant.

Have a light heart and ask for guidance. Submit yourselves to Me so I can reach your brothers through you! Look at how many souls you touch each day. Sow seeds of life in their hearts. They will not turn you off. They are thirsty. Give them the messages I write here. Give them the Blue Book. They will turn their hearts to God. I will work on them as they read. They will receive life from this book, life in their souls. Alleluia.

I am the son of God and I come into your midst as a baby, mighty and powerful, but little and helpless. I come to you in Communion. I am God. My power shines on your soul there. Do not go a day without receiving Me. If your children are sick, teach them to make a Spiritual Communion. The power of the Eucharist is the most powerful.

Don't miss the opportunity to go to Communion every day. Make spiritual communions throughout the day. I long to be united to you. Beg for this union. In moments of silence, come and sit with Me. At home, make a Spiritual Communion and sit with Me there for short periods of silence. I will come to you and dwell in your hearts. I yearn to be alone with you and share My love. If you have 5 to 10 minutes at home, come to Me. You will have a new energy and peace. I give you what you need. Be alone with Me and sit. Don't be anxious. Just be patient and not busy. Sit still. Let Me work in your heart. Do not expect any concrete results. I give you what you need and you do not need to feel anything. Make your life a time to deepen your union with Me. The Ultimate Work of your Heart is to be united to Me. I work. You sit in silence and in submission. You become selfless and unattached. Transcend your body and be with Me in the soul. Sit now in silence. Don't be busy. Let yourself go in a Spiritual Communion. Ask Jesus to come into your heart now. You are too hard. Be like jello, let go. Let go of everything. I will work on all that. Leave it behind and be with Me, alone.


December 13, 1999 - Second Message

Messenger: I was told to make the Mary's Message tape on the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, December 12, 1996, five days before Mary appeared, and pass it out on Tom's farm December 13, 1996.

On December 13, 1996, we gathered at Tom's farm as was instructed by Jesus. We passed out the Mary's Message tape.

Here is the rosary I received that day. This rosary is available on tape. Father Carter led the rosary.


Rosaries from the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary

This rosary was received on Friday, December the 13th, 1996 at a International Shepherds of Christ Associates Meeting at Tom Arlinghaus's farm in Kentucky. The rosary was led by Fr. Edward J. Carter S.J., spiritual director of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. The meditations and messages were given to Rita Ring during the rosary. This rosary was received live and transcribed from the recording. This live recording can be obtained by writing Shepherds of Christ Publications. All of these meditations have been discerned by Fr. Edward J. Carter S.J.

THE JOYFUL MYSTERIES

The Annunciation

  1. Mary speaks:
    I stood beneath the cross of my Son and my heart was in such pain for I saw before my eyes, I saw Him covered with blood, I saw Him die. My heart, my children, my heart to watch my Son. But my heart, my heart how I suffered for my little children of the world that give into this world and give up the love of my Son.
  2. Song: "Jesus, oh Jesus, come and fill your lambs..."
    God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten Son into this world that we would be saved from our sins.
  3. Think of the time of Adam and Eve when they were given such great gifts and they were in such light for they knew God in such a special way. And because of their willfulness they sinned and the light that He had given to them, this knowledge of God that they knew was dimmed. And they no longer saw as they once saw because of their sin.
  4. The plan of the Father. And the Father sends into this world His only begotten Son, born of the Virgin Mary through the power of the Holy Spirit. The plan of the Father unfolds. Adam and Eve sinned. He sends His Son into the world, His Son, the light of the world. And today we are here. We are here, called here as His apostles to carry this light into the darkness. He is giving to us abundant grace that we may be ever closer to His Heart, that we will be one in Him, that His light will go forth into the world as we march as children of light to carry this light into the darkness.
  5. Do we see how important our life is? We see the angel Gabriel appear to the Virgin Mary. She became the Mother of God. At the Holy Spirit Center, we see the angel appear to Mary in the first window of the rosary windows. At the Holy Spirit Center, across from this, we see the Assumption where Mary is taken into heaven. The plan of the Father unfolds in the life of the Virgin Mary. We watch her through the life of Christ as she walked beside Him in sufferings and in joys and Mary is crowned Queen of Heaven and Earth. Do we see our life unfold in the Father's plan? For we have truly been called by the Almighty God, His special servants, to go out into the world and to carry this Good News that God loves us so much. The world, at this time, is covered with darkness; for the Father looks to the earth and men are not loving as He intends us to love. We are the children of God. We are to be as one family loving God and loving one another. But the world is covered with darkness. We are His children of light that will carry this light into the darkness as we cooperate with the grace that He is giving to us, His special apostles, and He will act in us and many will know Him through our actions.
    Song: "Jesus, oh Jesus, come and fill your lambs..."
  6. We are so limited in our vision that we do not see. We must pray for the grace that we will see more and more. Let us look down from above. Let us see the sin of Adam and Eve. And the Father sends His Son into the world, the light to lead His children in darkness into the light. And Mary appears, she appears over and over again and she says to us, "You are sinful, you must turn your ways. You must convert. My beloved children, God is displeased. You are sinning. You must love God and you must love one another." Mary appeared to Bernadette. She appeared at Fatima. She told them, if you do not do this, that the world war would follow and the war followed. Mary appeared again, she appeared to me everyday for fourteen months and she still appeared on the 5th until October the 5th of '96. This same message "we are sinful in our ways, there are souls that are dropping into hell, you must turn from your ways" and then she gives this message in the rosary on August 27th. This message to us she says, "Carry this light into the darkness for your mother, Mary. For I stood beneath the cross and I cried and I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see? For you will not listen to me. What can I do? I come, I appear, I beg, I plead, I give you these gifts from my Son and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me, help the little children. I appear, I appear, I appear, and I am ignored. This is the same plan of the Father that is unfolding in our lives. We have been called by Jesus. Jesus has called us here at 12 o'clock on the 13th of the month. His apostles and any person that hears this tape, Jesus is calling you to be His apostle, to be His child of light, to carry the light into the darkness, for man has sinned and God loves. He wants the world to know His love.
  7. "Please, please help me," she says. "I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help, my children. You are my children of light." Jesus, the Almighty God, comes into this world in the womb of a human person for love of us. Who are we that God comes into this world in a human person and remains in the womb of a human person for nine months because of His great love for us. He came to this world, He gave Himself on the cross, and He gives Himself to us this day.
  8. Do we see the oneness between Jesus and His Mother? The oneness that They are one in her body. His Heart was formed within her body. They are in one body. Do we see ourselves, how separate we are? How this displeases our Lord, how this displeases our Father? For we are to be one body, united in the greatest love, one family. There will be one flock and one shepherd. He has called us to be one with each other that we will lead this across this world, that as we join as one family in the Shepherds of Christ movement, in great love, united in Their Hearts, we will lead the light across the earth and that many of His children will be united in His Heart.
  9. Jesus speaks:
    Oh My beloved ones, give Me your heart. Come, come to My Heart. You will be one in My Heart. And as you go to the churches, the schools, and the family, you will lead the strayed ones home to My Heart and the world will know the love, the love of God, the love as the Father intends, the love of His people to be in one flock with one shepherd.
    Response:

    The Almighty God so loved this world that He sent His only begotten Son into this world. Look at how we are treating God. Look at how indifferently He is treated-forgotten and ignored. This is an urgent message for Mary no longer appears as she once did. She is crying out, "I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer." And she said on October the 5th, when she appeared the last time on the 5th, "His hand is struck with power."
  10. Song: "Jesus, oh Jesus, come and fill Your lambs..."

The Visitation

  1. Messenger: Jesus and Mary, the new Adam and the new Eve. For she said, "I stood beneath the cross of my Son and my heart was in such pain."
  2. Mary went to visit her cousin, Elizabeth. She goes to visit one person to tell her the good news. At the Holy Spirit Center, I see this window where Mary goes to visit her cousin, Elizabeth, and across from this is the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the apostles. We see that they are called to go out into this world to spread the good news. This is how it is today. We are called to go out into this world to tell all the good news-that Jesus has come, He has died and He has risen and He is alive and with us this day.
  3. She carried the life of the Almighty God within her womb. And He was formed within her body. His little body formed in the womb of a human person. It is today when we go to the heart of our Mother, that the Holy Spirit forms us more and more into the image and likeness of Jesus. This is our refuge, this is our place of great love, the heart of the Virgin Mary.
  4. Jesus came into this world in the womb of Mary. Man sinned and Jesus came to save us from our sins. It is through Mary, the pure and sinless one, that we must go too, to be so united to the Almighty God. For we are sinners, tainted by the sin of Adam and Eve, and it is only in going through the pure and Immaculate sinless one that we can truly reach the great depths of the Heart of Christ.
  5. I think of the child Jesus within the womb of Mary. The Almighty God within her. And I think of my great moments of greatest joy when I am united to my beloved Savior in the Holy Eucharist, when He gives Himself to me and I know His presence in such a special way. It is in Mary that I go more deeply into His Heart. It is in giving myself to Mary, the pure and sinless one, that I go deeper and deeper into the Heart of my beloved Jesus, my Divine Lover. Mary carried the child Jesus within her womb, but God gives Himself to us in the Holy Eucharist and we carry the Almighty God within us, the Almighty God within us. What a great honor God has given to us that He gives Himself to us. In our sinfulness, that He comes and He enters into us. It is in Mary that we unite more and more to Him.
  6. The devil has waged this war against Mary and the priests especially, against Mary and her children of light. It is in Mary that we unite so deep to the Almighty God.
  7. The Father shows us how He sent His Son into the world in Mary. What makes us think that we will be so close to God if we do not go through Mary. The devil has really pressed on the relationship between Mary and her children. We must spread this news to the world that we must give ourselves to Mary and to Jesus.
  8. Hail Mary...
  9. Song: "O Holy Dwelling Place of God..."
    Messenger: We must go through the heart of Mary in order to unite in great depth with our Almighty God. He sent His Son into the world in the Virgin Mary, the pure and the sinless one. He tells us that we must go through her heart, that He wants His Heart venerated next to her heart. Mary said that we will not have peace in this world until we give our hearts to her heart and the Heart of her Son.
    Song: "O Holy Mary, Holy Mother of God."
    Messenger: The Hearts of Jesus and Mary, our little heaven on earth.
  10. Hail Mary...

The Nativity

  1. Song: "Come Holy Spirit..."
  2. Messenger: Within the womb of the Virgin Mary, the Holy Spirit works to sanctify us and to make us more into the image and likeness of Jesus. Let us pray for the light. Let us pray that we may see more fully, see more clearly, not with our eyes but with our hearts. That we may know God. The desire that is so great within us, that we want so much to know our Almighty God, God who is love.
  3. The child Jesus was born in a stable in Bethlehem, not adorned in gold and silver, but He comes in great poverty and is laid on bare wood. This is the Almighty God. Who are we that we are so high and mighty, that we want so many things of gold and silver? The Almighty God comes to show us His way and His way is the way of love. The most important thing that we must do is to love. This is the real treasure, love of God and love of one another.
  4. Jesus speaks: I want to talk to you, My beloved ones, and tell you My love. But My Heart is sad for the world today. They are willful in their ways. I am calling you, My children of light, to go into the darkness and to spread My love. I am silent, I have been quieted. Many ignore Me, they treat Me with such indifference. My beloved ones, how I love you, and love all My precious souls. Will you carry My light into the dark world? Will you tell them that I am alive and that I am with you and that I want to give them My love. I am the Almighty God. I give to you My divine love. My beloved ones, I have given to you great gifts each and every one of you present. My great grace I have outpoured to you as members of the Shepherds of Christ movement. I am giving to you abundant graces to come to My Heart. This is an urgent message. You will carry this light into the darkness and many hearts will be lead home to My Heart. Please, I beg you to put aside the other distractions that Satan has created in your life and listen to this message for I appear on the cross on December 5th and My lips were moving, but silent for you do not hear. There are so many things that have distracted you and led you astray. Satan will come into your life and tell you that you must do this and that. I am calling you, My apostles. The time is urgent, souls are being lost forever, for all eternity. I have called you. You are My special ones. Will you answer this call, will you help to spread this movement to the far ends of the earth for many will be led back home to My Heart. I am Jesus, your beloved Savior, come to Me and I will bathe you in My love.
  5. Messenger: I see Jesus in the window at the Holy Spirit Center. I see the little baby in the crib and He is surrounded by the little sheep. The Almighty God, humbled Himself so that He came into this world in the womb of a human person and remained there for nine months. We are so haughty and so filled with pride. We are so blind that we do not see. It is in living according to the Father's Will that we will all have peace in our lives. There is not another way. The Almighty God is all powerful. We must do what He is telling us to do. Why He has called me, why He has called Fr. Carter, why He has called you to this movement, why He is giving us the grace to see, why He is lifting the veil, why He is showing us the light as we unite more and more to His Heart, as we are filled more and more with His life, why? I do not know, but it is a great gift from God and He wants our thankfulness. He wants us to thank Him and to be His loving servants, His children of light, to spread the light in the darkness. And the light shineth in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend. There are many this day in this world that are in total darkness. Many that will lose their souls for all eternity. I saw Mary, I saw her before my eyes and she appeared day, after day, after day, and cried out and cried out and cried out how the souls were dropping into hell like rain. And it is so hard for me, it is so hard for Mary and Jesus speak to you and people do not listen. They focus on you as a person and do not hear the message. Let us hear the message of the Almighty God this day for it is so urgent. Many appeared from July the 5th of '94 until October the 5th of '96, over two years on these special dates and then Jesus appears on the crucifix with His mouth moving. Do we hear His words in this rosary? For He is speaking, He is speaking to us, His apostles.
    Jesus speaks:
    What you do here, My beloved ones, will make the difference to this world. I have called you and I am magnifying all your efforts. Will you answer this call as My apostles? Will you help Me to go into the darkness to spread the light? I am the light of the world.
    Messenger:
    And the light shone in the darkness. But the darkness grasped it not.
  6. Song: "Jesus, Jesus, Jesus the light of the world..."
    Messenger: He came into this world and He was laid on bare wood and He went out of this world hanging on a cross. He is the King of Kings. The Kingdom of God is at hand. He is calling us to spread this consecration to the world. For we will be given the greatest gift of all when we are one in Their Hearts, when there is one flock with one shepherd. This is a calling from Jesus to us. This date on the 13th is a calling from Jesus. Mary appeared at Fatima, Mary appeared to Bernadette, Mary appeared on the 13ths. Jesus is calling us on the 13ths to hear this most urgent message. The message is that we must go into the world and we must tell people that Jesus loves them. And they must tell Jesus that they love Him and that they love Mary, that they give their hearts to Jesus and Mary. When people do this, they will see the light. For we have disobeyed our Mother. This is her peace plan for the world. Jesus is telling us today that we must carry out Mary's peace plan or we will not have peace. The Father sends Jesus into the world, the light of world. He comes as a baby. Mary comes and says, "You are sinful. You are sinful. You must change your ways." We ignore Mary. Our willfulness. It is only in living according to His will that we will be children in one family and one fold. We have disobeyed Mary. When we give our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will see the light.
  7. And the light will steal across the sky as from the darkest night to the brightest sunlit day. The light will steal across the sky as hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, as hearts are turned to hearts of love. Mary told us the way. We must give Mary our heart and give our heart to Jesus. This is what we are being commissioned to do.
    Jesus speaks:
    My beloved ones, My apostles, I have called you to go into the darkness and to spread this consecration to the church, the family, and the school. This would delight My Heart and the heart of my Mother for it is when hearts are hearts of love that you will have peace. You must lead the strayed ones home to My Heart.
  8. Messenger: Satan has blocked this message from the time of Fatima, in the churches, in the schools. Satan is blocking this message today. It is so simple and so clear. He is giving to us great grace in the Shepherds of Christ movement that we will be able to go out and spread the consecration and the rosary as Mary has told us. To tell people about the First Saturday Devotion and making reparation to Their Hearts. For we are sinful, we must tell God that we are sorry. Jesus is asking us today. People have ignored Mary. They have not listened to their mother and they have disobeyed her. She is the Queen of Heaven and Earth and we disobey her. This displeases God. Jesus has told me over and over again of the importance of the 13th of the month. In four strong messages He told me how important this is to the Shepherds of Christ movement, to the apostles in the Shepherds of Christ movement. For He is directing them in order to carry out Mary's peace plan in the world that we will be one flock and one shepherd.
  9. Oh beloved Mary, I see you, I see you in Bethlehem and I see the child Jesus in the crib and St. Joseph by your side. This is the Holy Family, the family of love. Look at our family today, they are so disconnected. Look at how we sit in the pews at church, so disconnected. This is not what God wants. He wants us to be one body where we are united in the deepest love. Let us model ourselves after the lives of Jesus and Mary. Let us look at the Holy Family and see the intense love between Jesus and Mary and Joseph. Today we cannot even find Jesus, Mary, and Joseph on a Christmas card. We must go to a religious store to look for a Christmas card. Jesus is displeased. Man has sinned. The Father sent His mother and we did not listen. Jesus is talking to us this day.
  10. Song: "Oh Lady of Light..."
    Song: "I come to you with greatest love..."
    Messenger: And He will write the messages of His love on their hearts. These are rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, messages of love that God wishes us to spread to this world, that the hearts will be hearts of love, that the love will not just be spoken from lips, that love will be true love. That hearts will fervently love God with all their heart. This is what we will have when the Sacred Heart of Jesus reigns. But we in this room must love Him with all our heart for we are the leaders that He has called. Jesus, I love you and I give you my heart. Mary, I love you and I give you my heart.
    Song: "Oh the rosary..."
    Jesus speaks: This is My teaching to you, My beloved ones. I am teaching you in the rosary how to be My apostles of love to go into the darkness and to carry My light. I love you, I love you, I love you. I am Jesus, the Almighty God. I am who am and I have called you. I have called you by name.

The Presentation in the Temple

  1. Messenger: Joseph and Mary took the child Jesus to the temple and the old man, Simeon, told them that this child is destined for the rise and fall of many in Israel.
  2. Hail Mary...
  3. And her heart was filled with immense sorrow for she knew from that point on that her Son, Jesus, would suffer. It was a connection deep within her heart and the Heart of her Son. For Jesus in His divine knowing, knowing all things, and Mary knowing from the prophecy of Simeon, They shared this immense secret, knowing of the sufferings to come.
  4. And she looked at her child, Jesus. She looked at Him at play. She looked at Him from that moment on. There was a constant suffering within her Immaculate Heart for she knew that the day would come.
    Mary speaks:

    I stood beneath the cross of my Son. I stood beneath the cross of my Son and my heart was in such pain.
  5. Song: "I rocked Him as a baby. I fed Him as a child..."
  6. Hail Mary...
  7. Song: "See the eyes that looked at Mary..."
  8. Song: "Let us build the city of God. May our tears be turned into dancing..."
  9. Song: "Awake from your slumber. Arise from your sleep..."
  10. Messenger: We look out and we see the light of day and we see the trees and we see the beauty that God created. At night time we look out the window and the same trees and all the beauty of the river are still there, but we do not see. There are so many people this day that Mary talked about when she appeared, that are walking in darkness. They do not see. For it is not with earthly vision that we see. But we see within our hearts. We feel His presence. I do not see Jesus in this room, but it is in my heart that He is so present to me, that I feel so one in Him. He is giving to us abundant grace. We are saturated more and more with His life, we see more, we see and know Him more. The darkness turns into light. For He is lifting the veil and giving to us graces that even some of the greatest saints did not receive. Why is He doing this for us? To much that is given, much is expected. He is giving this to us that we will carry out this light to the world, that we will help spread the light in the darkness.

    Message before the Glory Be:


    The Child is destined for the rise and fall of many in Israel.

    Jesus speaks:
    The time is urgent, My beloved ones, every day is a great amount of time. The devil will distract you and lead you astray. I am calling you in the Shepherds of Christ movement, My apostles, for the light will spill across the earth and many hearts will be converted through the work that you do. I am magnifying your efforts. It is through the consecration that hearts will be turned to hearts of love and that there will be peace in this world. This is the good news. As you spread this to the world, many souls will know Me and they will be saved. Please, I beg you, do not say "no". These are My messages that I am giving to you on this 13th of December and every 13th that follows. I will give you the instructions, My apostles, for leading the strayed ones back to My Heart.

The Finding in the Temple

  1. Song: "See the eyes that look at Mary..."
    Jesus speaks: I am calling you, My beloved ones, to be My beating Heart in this world, gathered in one fold in the Shepherds of Christ movement. Many will be led to My Heart through the consecration. You must go to the churches, to the families, and to the schools and to lead the strayed ones home.
  2. Messenger: Mary went in search for the child Jesus for He was lost in the temple. She appeared over and over and over again every day for fourteen months and for the last nine months, every time I prayed the Joyful Mysteries, through this mystery she kept telling me of the souls that were going to hell, her little lost children that she loved so. She lamented under the cross at Immaculata and I went through such agony feeling within my heart the suffering that she allowed me to experience for the loss of her little children and the loss of these children forever to the fires of hell.
  3. For she says in this message, "What can I do? I come, I appear, I beg, I plead, I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often any more for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear, I appear, I appear, and I am ignored.
  4. She was in such anguish to lose the Child Jesus. But how sorrowful her heart this day. Look at the little children in the world how they are being taught such filth that they do not even know the love of Jesus and Mary. And Jesus says that the children are the sickest of all because many of the adults are sick and they are teaching the children and as the generations go on and on, the children become more sick. We are feeding our children garbage. We are telling them what is important is material wealth and things and they do not even know the ten commandments. Mary, our mother, appeared to me every day. I deliver this message. It is for you. I beg you, I beg you to listen to this message on this tape. This is the message Jesus and Mary asked me yesterday on the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe to record and to give to you, to listen to frequently, that you will be in Their world, that you will feel close to Them and close to Their Hearts. For the hearts of so many in the world today are so cold. But even though there are many, many, many hearts that are cold, the reality is that God is speaking and this is what He is saying-Adam and Eve sinned, God came, Mary appeared (and she does not appear as she once did), she cannot hold back the hand of her Son any longer. And she says "His hand is struck with power."
  5. We are so blind. There are so many horrible things that are going on in the world. We must do what Mary, our Mother, told us to do. This is the good news. This is a great gift from God. This is all that will make us happy: to do what God is telling us to do.
  6. There is something I want to read out of Isaiah. This was on First Saturday that this was the reading. And Jesus gave me very much revelation.
    Isaiah 30: 19-26:
    "Yes, people of Zion living in Jerusalem, you will weep no more. He will be gracious to you when your cry for help rings out; as soon as he hears it, he will answer you. When the Lord has given you the bread of suffering and the water of distress, he who is your teacher will hide no longer, and you will see your teacher with your own eyes. Your ears will hear these words behind you, 'This is the way, keep to it,' whether you turn to right or left. You will hold unclean the silver platting of your idols and gold plating of your images. You will throw them away like the polluted things they are, shouting after them, 'Good riddance!' He will send rain for the seed you sow in the ground, and the bread that the ground provides will be rich and nourishing. That day, your cattle will graze in wide pastures. Oxen and donkeys that work the land will eat for fodder wild sorrel,spread by the shovel-load and fork-load. On every lofty mountain, on every high hill there will be streams and water-courses, on the day of the great slaughter when the strongholds fall. Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter-like the light of seven days in one-on the day Yahweh dresses his people's wound and heals the scars of the blows have received."1
    Messenger: The world is very sinful in their ways. They have ignored Mary, their Mother. She says, "His hand is struck with power." There will be the era of great peace. There will be the time when the grace abundantly flows in such proportion from our churches and hearts will fervently love God with the greatest love. And we will be one flock and one family. We will be the family that the Father intends us to be. The reign of the Sacred Heart is coming and her Immaculate Heart will triumph. We are a major part of the completion of the Fatima message. In these rosaries we are receiving the directions that will help bring this about. We are the apostles that He is sending into the world to lead the strayed ones home. With the consecration, He is giving to us great grace that we will be one in Him, that He will operate through us. And all will see with light brighter than seven suns, see within Their Hearts and know God, not with earthly vision but with this great knowing of the Almighty God. He has given to us a great light. We are to lead the others into the light. The people in darkness have seen a great light. It is as bright as seven suns.
  7. Mary speaks: The child Jesus was lost in the temple. There are many children that are lost today. You, my beloved ones, You, my beloved ones are my children of light.
    Song: "Awake from your slumber. Arise from you sleep..."
  8. Song: "Prepare in the wilderness a highway for God."
  9. Song: "A voice cries out in the wilderness..."
  10. Jesus speaks: My beloved ones, I cry out to you this day. This day, December the 13th, My apostles, I have called you to this place, to this farm. I have called you to give this message to you. I have called you on the 13th of the month. I am Jesus, your Savior. Will you answer this call? Will you go into the darkness and carry My light? You must go into the darkness. You must spread My love. You must carry the consecration for there will be one flock and one shepherd when hearts are united in My Heart and the heart of My Mother. Come to Me, My beloved ones. Come to Me and I will fill your heart with the greatest love. I will outpour My life to you and you will see the light brighter than seven suns. You will see and know Me. I am your God. I love you.
    Message before the Glory Be:
    Song: "A voice cries out in the wilderness..."
    Jesus speaks: These are My directions for you, My beloved apostles. I am asking you to study these tapes and the messages in God's Blue Book, to live according to these messages, to come to the tabernacle, to daily Mass and Communion. It is there that I will saturate you with My life, that you will see and that you will know, that you will spread My light into the darkness. I am begging you every day to study these messages. I am calling you, My apostles. It is through this study that you will carry the light into the darkness. When you listen to this tape, I am asking you to forward the tape to a spot on the tape and to listen for five minutes to the message that I deliver verbally to you. I am Jesus. What you do is so important to so many of My beloved souls. And I cry out to you bring Me souls, bring Me souls, bring Me souls, for this will delight My most Sacred Heart. I love you, I love you, I love you.

December 13, 1999 - Nursing Home Message - Fourth Message

Messenger: It is through His pierced Heart that the sacramental life of the Church was formed: water, a symbol for baptism; blood, a symbol of the Eucharist. We are given His divine life in baptism. We are fed through His very own Body and Blood. Mary is the Mediatrix of all graces and His life flows through her Heart. It is through Mary's Heart that we are dispensed this life, merited by Her Son as He gave His life on the cross.


Messenger: When visiting a nursing home this is a plan you can follow to pray a little part of the rosary with the elderly or sick residents.

What is usually done and tolerated by the elderly folks is one Our Father, five Hail Mary's and another Our Father. The song, A Song from Jesus, can be sung before and after these prayers.

It is desirable to have a big picture of Mary is Crowned Queen of Heaven when doing these meditations. Also it is recommended that you have pictures of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.


Excerpt from April 26, 1995, Mary is Crowned Queen of Heaven from Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary Mary is Crowned Queen of Heaven 

Mary is Crowned Queen of Heaven

  1. Messenger: The Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph! The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign! There will be an era of peace! 
  2. Mary speaks: In your wildest imagination, you cannot image the deep and most tender love that my Son has for you. Pray to the Spirit to open your heart so you may feel more and more the great love that Jesus, my Son, has for you.
  3. I call to you! I call to you! I call to you! I am Mary, the Mother of God, and I am your Mother. My dear little ones, harken to my call, for you are my chosen ones.
  4. I am Mary, your Mother! My beloved children, how I love you with the most maternal love. I love you! I love you! I am waiting for you to come closer to my Heart.
  5. Messenger: Help us to be more aware of the great gifts that you are giving to us this very day. Help us to be sensitive to the grace of the Lord, our God.
