Prayer Service
December 17, 2006 - 5:00 am
Messenger:
We must be one. This is our mission.
Let the valleys be raised and the mountains
made low. The lion sit down with the
lamb.
Think of this the lion graze with the
lamb. If God has called the world to oneness —
oneness in Him where we are to operate as
St. Paul says
"It is no longer, I who live, but He who lives
in me"
We must put on Christ —
In all things - put on Christ —
His Word alive in us — where it is no
longer - I who live, but He who lives in me.
An apple tree was chosen to show the
sin of Adam and Eve and from this simple fruit
we are to recognize the concupiscence of
the flesh, but we fail to see because of our wounded
human nature our own jealousies, envy,
pride —
Mary was sinless —
Jealousies lingering in us can be means of
attack from the devil. If it is God's will for
us to have many relationships and function
deeply united as a body - then jealousies,
envy, must not enter in — a person wants
everyone to be at their full potential for
this mission.
Fr. John says
We see each other as imperfectly from
the garden — We do not see God as purely
because of the sin of Adam.
So we can size up our neighbor and not
be joyful when one is serving God with
their talents as God desires and actually
cause them pain and suffering for doing God's
will - God's work.
Fr. Carter was very holy — he spent his life
loving - in the end - Jesus gave him
the mission to teach us about love and
unity.
God has given us the vision of the lion
laying down with the lamb — lions are ferocious
lambs little and docile — If the lion wants to
eat the lamb, then they are not friends — The
lion by nature is an animal, a lion — the
lamb by nature an animal - docile, simple,
following
Whatever the scripture says — about the
mountains being leveled and the valleys
raising up - to me it meant - oneness —
oneness means —
I do God's will —
Ponder the Persons of the Trinity —
Did you try to have 3 people as one — it
can be very difficult — 2 can go together
against a third — then they can pair up
another way — one day and then it is the
other two against the third —
God gave us grace — all through the
Movement — Fr. Carter, John and Me to stay
united — then Fr. Carter died — then it
was John and Me like Fr. Carter said would
happen — then there was a handmaid
as #3 - then Joe Lee was close at hand -
then —
How do we do our relationships —
Our model is the Trinity - The Father, Son
and Holy Spirit are three Persons as
one.
There is no jealousy!!
The vision God wanted for the Shepherd of Christ
was given to Fr. Carter and to me — the vision
God wants is clear —
Always the Priestly Newsletter was
the top #1 priority — these remarks that
follow show us that since August 15, 2006
to November 2006 we could not have done
anything ourselves to really get this
response — God has called us to be a
part of this big plan to help to bring to
completion the mission Mary began at
Fatima —
The only way it will work is if we
unite very deeply in God. God is
our head. We are under Him.
Jesus is the Chief Shepherd of the Flock.
Ezekiel 34: 11-16
“For the Lord Yahweh says this: Look, I myself shall take care of my flock and look after it. As a shepherd looks after his flock when he is with his scattered sheep, so shall I look after my sheep. I shall rescue them from wherever they have been scattered on the day of clouds and darkness. I shall bring them back from the peoples where they are; I shall gather them back from the countries and bring them back to their own land. I shall pasture them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines and in all the inhabited parts of the country. I shall feed them in good pasturage; the highest mountains of Israel will be their grazing ground. There they will rest in good grazing grounds; they will browse in rich pastures on the mountains of Israel. I myself shall pasture my sheep, I myself shall give them rest–declares the Lord Yahweh. I shall look for the lost one, bring back the stray, bandage the injured and make the sick strong. I shall watch over the fat and healthy. I shall be a true shepherd to them."
John 10: 11-15
I am the good shepherd:
the good shepherd lays down his life
for his sheep.
The hired man,
since he is not the shepherd
and the sheep do not belong to him,
abandons the sheep
as soon as he sees a wolf coming,
and runs away,
and then the wolf attacks
and scatters the sheep;
he runs away
because he is only a hired man
and has no concern for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd;
I know my own
and my own know me,
just as the Father knows me
and I know the Father;
and I lay down my life for my sheep.

Messenger: This is our mission —
This is the great mission God calls us to,
to help spread His love to the world.
Margaret was a nice girl who loved God
but when she got around Sue there was
competition — Margaret didn't like Sue
getting too many things where she looked
good to others. So as sweet as Margaret was
most of the time - she blocked Sue's work
at Church and Sue had a unique talent for
helping others organize and get the money
they needed for projects, but Margaret just
got jealous if Sue "looked too good" at Church.
They all had the same mission spreading
God's love — being united deeply and really
forgiving and helping each other with the
vision. At times Kathy would spend lots of
personal time arguing with Judy — they
just fought about things and wasted
lots of time competing with each other —
there was little harmony ever in that
department.
Sometimes the pastor would get up on
Sunday and look so tired - it wasn't from
preparing his homily on Saturday, but
trying to settle argumentative - competing
persons. Even though they were holy - if
certain individuals came against others
they would begin competing.
The Pastor would get up and talk about
unity, but as soon as the Mass was over —
there would be fights between Sue and Judy
about cupcakes at the bake sale.
You say "Oh come on - it isn't
that bad" — What does subtle mean? —
It was more subtle than that — passive-
aggressive ways of competing for dominance —
blocking the vision as God wants it.
Jealousies can be used by satan, if people
give in, to cripple. They may never want to
recognize their own intrusion in blocking
God's holy plan — they are jealous — something
swells inside and like a hungry dog from
the basement — it isn't like the lion
laying down with the lamb for harmony
and peace.
Remember the song — "Proclaim the
Joyful Message"
I always liked this song —
I would see a time of harmony —
The lion laying down with the lamb —
The hills and valleys being leveled — maybe
it didn't mean that at all —
But today I know this —
God shows us the relationship of the
Persons of the Trinity - the most perfect
community.
God wants harmony and love. We
can become so selfish and not focus
on the other. We don't have to bake
cookies for each other and shine each other's
shoes —
We must want God's plan
Not be jealous, but happy when we each
do a job as God would desire —
Harmony according to God's will —
Some people won't even recognize
jealousies so they stay blinded and satan
can work in this blocking our own
mission - We work so hard —
for the Plan of God?
for God's honor and glory?
Or do we do it for ourselves
for our honor and glory?
for our dominance?
Hidden ways we can "take-out" our
own work to help build God's
Kingdom —
If it is God's will
Do it!
Don't give into jealousy, self-
promotion, envy, pride,
The devil works in these 7 capital
sins to block us.
Pride, Greed, Envy, Wrath, Lust, Gluttony, Sloth
Prayer for Union with Jesus
Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.
I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.
I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.
When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.

Messenger:
Look at your feelings of jealousy
toward anyone in the Movement —
accept God's vision —
help to work the mission
Be grateful you were chosen —
It is a grace - thank God
Dear God —
Thank you for the gift of the
Shepherds of Christ.
Thank you for this family of love —
Help our love to be seen as a unit
operating for this holy purpose of
spreading the Newsletter centered
in Consecration and the Eucharist —
the love of God - Father, Son and Holy Spirit —
unity with God and one another.
The Newsletter is your instrument
to nourish and touch so many priests —
God help us to see this gift you have
given and thank you for each
precious newsletter and the beautiful
prayers of the Shepherds of Christ —
Help us to spread the prayer chapters
centered in Consecration to the world and
the consecration materials to schools
and families —
God You are love —
We are hypocrites if we do work
in church and fail to love and
promote unity —
You are love —
Love is oneness —
Love is knowing the Trinity —
Oneness is making all vital relationships
in the Shepherds of Christ to be as You desire
working full potential in purity as You
will according to Your vision to
promote Your love and unity to
the whole world —
through prayer —
through consecration to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
through devotion to the Eucharist
love for the priest, the Church
and the world —
Help us to heal old memories that
block us from being pure instruments —
Help us to be holy and united —
Help us to be glad at the accomplishments
of others doing Your will
and never jealous of one doing
Your work —
Help us to see the WIDE VISION —
the seeds You have planted and
not focus on a space just
between our ears — where we
can let thoughts of jealousy
and pride ferment and hurt us —
Jealousy is real - we give in
Pride is a weakness
Anger can eat at our heart
Lust - wanting more in any
relationship than God
wants —
even emotional bonding
that is dysfunctional
Real oneness promotes growth
Real oneness empowers
Real oneness recognizes God's vision
Real oneness - sees through God's eyes
the other in deepest love —
treasuring their gifts for
God's holy purpose - not
selfish gain —
A man could make nuts and bolts, but
in learning his skill - he learned patience,
duration, precision —
God called him to now put his talents
of patience, duration, precision to the
test of touching the whole world —
The man wanted to make nuts and bolts - he
didn't see the other gifts he learned
for the big mission.
Sometimes the lessons God is teaching
us lie hidden in the works we are producing
like putting out nuts and bolts.
I taught math to adults at a particular
college for 16 years. They interviewed
students and they wrote an article on
the front of the paper about students
comments — I received a lot of
really good comments, but it was
how I handled the whole person
and their ability to grasp the subject
of math which intimidated some —
I told them "God created math in
the beginning and they could get it."
Today I do little math, but the skills I
had from loving people and teaching
them are what God has used to bring
me to this place today —
God is always teaching us with each
person we encounter because we
are all so different, but can be so
very dynamically one - empowered
like this for a mission to spread the Newsletter
and prayer chapters around the world.
What is the motive force —
It was His plan from the beginning —
God wants the salvation of souls —
God wants us to do this work —
If I started writing down math formulas
now on this paper and talking about
higher degree polynomial functions —
I would not be doing God's will for
me now.
Since I was a baby and then 5 years old
when my mom died —
God has been teaching me for this
mission
Some skills like producing equations —
making lasagna, nursing babies
I don't use anymore —
But I learned to love, to relate to give
to rely on Jesus —
Today Jesus is calling us in the Shepherds of Christ
to put all our skills to work to form a
unit with our unique talents —
a unit powered by genuine love as
God intends for His holy purpose and
to commit in some level to this
calling as a
Shepherds of Christ handmaid
servant
apostle
associate
Apostle of the Eucharistic Heart
Prayer Apostle and
say yes to this vocation —
To never give into jealousy
To never give into pride
To be holy, loving, peaceful and
to recognize —
His might
His mission
His calling to us to be united —
A family helping the world to know
the love of God
The peace and treasures in the Hearts
of Jesus and Mary —
To help the world to love and be grateful
for the Church —
to help strengthen it by our
prayers and spread this knowledge
of this marvelous gift to the world —
Yes - when we accept our vocation in
the Shepherds of Christ —
we are doing these things
Loving and Strengthening
the priests, the Church and the world —
Jesus called you to this mission
Mary called you at Clearwater —
Sing song: The Lady is Calling
Think of how Clearwater was
a calling through these
past 10 years
A calling to YOU! A calling to me!
A calling to Fr. Carter —
After the 4th anniversary
December 17, 2000 —
Fr. Carter died December 18, 2000
after the 6:20 prayers
For 6 years God has brought us
to this great gift.
Today we give you these comments
and the Priestly Newsletter
and a most wonderful gift
of prayers by Fr. John J. Pasquini
Please pray them —
give the Newsletter to the priests —
give the Red Prayer Book to
the Sick and Suffering —
God has blessed us —
Help us respond to this call —
Sincerely,
Rita Ring
co-founder and messenger
Shepherds of Christ
John 17: 21-23
May they all be one,
just as, Father, you are in me
and I am in you,
so that they also may be in us,
so that the world may believe
it was you who sent me.
I have given them the glory
you gave to me,
that they may be one as we are one.
With me in them and you in me,
may they be so perfected in unity
that the world will recognise
that it was you who sent me
and that you have loved them
as you have loved me.
Messenger: Please help us with prayer and support.
