Such Oneness
R. To be united in prayer with Father, Son,
Holy Spirit, Mary, all angels and saints and
souls in purgatory. Such oneness. When I pray,
I unite myself with God.
Jesus and Mary and all angels and saints,
and souls in purgatory pray with me.
Such power.Fr. Carter's Mass
R. Yesterday, I had such a realization
of the oneness of Jesus and the Father.
Such immense love for the Father. I can
see myself being led to the bosom of
the Father. I want to be as a little child and
He is my loving Father and loves me so
much and cares for me.Cried at Mass, realizing the state the
world is in and how simple it
would be and how wonderful, if
all did the will of the Father.
I want to give myself totally to the
Father and unite so deeply with Jesus
in the Mass. Jesus, I am Yours.
March 30, 1995 - Fr. Carter's Mass
To Live In Me
R. I was so overwhelmed at my unworthiness
and what was going on at Mass. I cried because
I am so unworthy to receive God.
Mark 16: 8
And the women came out and ran away from the tomb because they were frightened out of their wits; and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
R. They said nothing to anyone, for they
were afraid. They fled, trembling and bewildered.
They knew Jesus. They were taught
by Him, but they were filled with fear.The enemies had placed
a heavy stone there to seal the tomb. They were
afraid and filled with hatred.
John 7: 19
Did not Moses give you the Law?
And yet not one of you keeps the Law!
R. His body springs forth glorious and
Jesus is joyous, triumphant, radiant.
His Body is glorified.
Luke 24: 26
Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer before entering into his glory?’
R. He did not take the pathway of joy and pleasure, but
of sorrow and pain.The cross He bore and carried. He opened the gates of heaven.
Mortal sin is death, it is a Tomb in which the
captive soul sleeps a fatal sleep.The devil guards to keep it locked. He tries to keep
the soul blinded.Christ says arise from the dead.
Christ will enlighten thee.For us He died, for us He rose.
How does the soul, put aside their sinful
ways?
1 Corinthians 15: 39-44
Not all flesh is the same flesh: there is human flesh; animals have another kind of flesh, birds another and fish yet another. Then there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies; the heavenly have a splendour of their own, and the earthly a different splendour. The sun has its own splendour, the moon another splendour, and the stars yet another splendour; and the stars differ among themselves in splendour. It is the same too with the resurrection of the dead: what is sown is perishable, but what is raised is imperishable; what is sown is contemptible but what is raised is glorious; what is sown is weak, but what is raised is powerful; what is sown is a natural body, and what is raised is a spiritual body.
R. Walk in the newness of life with the
resurrected Lord.Rise from the tomb of my failings.
Oh God create in me a new spirit
Penetrate me with Your light
To live for Thee.
Luke 24: 26
Was it not necessary that the Christ should suffer before entering into his glory?’
R. Were not our hearts burning within us,
while He spoke to us on the way and
opened the scripture to us."Peace be with you"
They thought they were seeing a ghost.
Luke 24: 39
...Touch me and see for yourselves; a ghost has no flesh and bones as you can see I have.’
R. He ate some fish.
He opened their minds to understand the
scriptures. Our minds are closed, we
need God's grace.Ascension
He goes to prepare a place for us.
Love is in the mystery.
Not seeing - intensely joined in such interior union
with Jesus and Mary, crying over Pieta, felt
wrapped in Their embrace. Crying -
wanted to kiss so tenderly His wounds,
crying about His wounds.My great rapture of intimacy is inside,
it doesn't have to do with seeing
and feeling, it brought me out of
that deep rapture I had with
Them.Hard to explain - such union inside
before, my intimacy is interiorly,
it was so intense because of the
mystery, the depth of the inner awareness
and oneness inside, not in what is visible,
in what is invisible. Such intense
connection and emotion, so closely joined —
so one with God.Realize more and more oneness of us all, oneness
with angels and saints and souls in
purgatory. I know this oneness in my
realization of deep oneness I have with
Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This intensifies
the emotion and experience of intimacy
with God.Oneness between one another, such love —
loved a chosen priest last night, where
before I felt conflict because of his
lack of support for me, saw
how special he is to God. He is the
special creation of God the Father.
He has been given a great gift. He was
chosen by Them to do His work.Oh how I intently love You, my beloved Jesus,
- my Spouse the bridegroom of my soul.Wounds take me deeper and deeper
into Him - deeper into His love.I see myself penetrating the wounds, going
deeper into His Heart - with Mary.Wrapped so intensely in His love — almost
like a power driving us together —
oneness, such oneness
seeing that was a gift.Pull - power, intenseness —
Wrap - wrapped in
raptureWrapped in - rapture is
as a pull, so intense, such a presence,
such a oneness, burning union.I think of the power and pull of electricity —
But His power never runs out.To be lost in Your loving embrace, my Lord.
The embrace of my Lord is rapture whether
sorrow or joy. I share with Him. It
is joy because I share it with Him.
Gripped into this union with
Him — awareness of the other side.Your presence pervades my soul
April 2, 1995
Jesus: I ponder the ways of your heart. I know far
better than you, your every intention. If
no one wants to read these messages, they
are missing My words of wisdom given as
a gift for all.You will talk, My beloved one, continue
to write and stay so connected to the sound
of My voice talking within you My precious
child.I do not go from you, I am so attentive to
your needs. Second by second, minute by
minute, I ponder your heart. I know your
fear and I comfort you in darkness.I never, ever go from you. I am wed to
your soul. So attentive to the beating of
your heart within your breast.Stay totally focused on Me for satan
will taunt you and try to talk in your
head. Silence him little one.As they poke at your eyes to make you cry,
I stand by your heart with burning love. I
am God, nothing can knock you if you
realize My love for you.
April 2, 1995
My Mother Comes on the Fifth
Jesus: I will tend to the priest, I am attentive
to your needs. These are My letters.
My Mother is coming on Wednesday, April 5, 1995.
(the first public 5th.) Trust in Me and do not fear.I have sent to you apostles to go
out to the world to spread these
messages. 12 - you are giving
them My messages. If I thought
only of Myself, I would not have left
the Apostles behind. You are teaching
My messages to them.They will carry this message
to the world. Do not be short,
rely totally on Me. You are leaving
behind My teachers.Get all your affairs in order.
You are teaching My emotion.
Be prepared as if you may die
tomorrow. Always live each
day to the fullest. Live each
hour, every minute to do
exactly as I have planned.No time to think of petty things. Your
days are at hand. I will mold you and
shape you and you will mold and shape
others through Me. I am leading _____ as
an apostle to do this work. ____, ____,
____, all will listen and watch you and be
taught, ____ and ____, as you watch
Fr. Carter and they watch you. You are a pillar
of strength rooted in Me. All who watch
will learn from Me for I am molding and
teaching you My ways. Be an example
of My teaching. You cannot be bowed
down, ever, you cannot complain, as
you are, so do you teach. You must
teach My ways, you are resisting to be
more and more one in Me. Read this letter
over and over. Every thing you do, do with
great love. People are watching you.
R. Thank God, He ponders the ways of our heart
for the devil is trying to tell us how
awful we are. Jesus knows and sees us
in our best light. He knows our
faults and still loves us. The devil
tells us we are all bad. Jesus says,
you are not perfect, I love you, but
I want you holy like saints.
To be totally focused in our faults is
to lose our light. We must always
be lights and act with love.Saw a statue come up - saw a vision
like heaventhen people I think, but after a while
bright statue came up to the
right - so white —It could have been Falmouth Statue,
but I think it was daintier —
bright whiteSaw from the waist up.
April 2, 1995 - After Mass Fr. Carters - 9:00a.m.
Shows His Power Over Life and Death
R. He showed them, He had the power to
raise Lazarus from the dead.
He called on His Father.Death has no power over Him, as
Lazarus was raised from the dead,
He too was raised up and we
will be raised up on the
last day.Why do we not trust for He truly
has all the power, over life and
death.
John 11: 25-26
R. They saw with human minds, they said
Lazarus would smell, he was
dead four days. We see with human
minds.He has the power, He called on His
Father.When He rose from the dead - they were
afraid. Even though He had told them He would
rise from the dead.He explained to the disciples on the way to Emmaus
the scriptures that pertained to Him from the
time of Moses and the early prophets.An insight into our blindness, we need
His grace to interpret the scriptures.We see with human minds - word of
God is living in Him.Just words if taken literally.
Words are Life!!
Words are vibrant when He
applies His grace, they come
alive.There are all different levels of the Word living in us,
being enacted in us.As there is depth to loving Him, there is depth in living in His Word.
It depends on our relationship with Him.Each Word is so important.
April 3, 1995 - 6:00a.m.
My Love is Deep
Jesus: As I was wounded with many different wounds,
little wounds, deeper wounds and
wounds that went entirely through
My hands and feet, people love Me in
all different levels. Some love Me
on the surface, some love Me deeply.
My love is endless, only in heaven
will your desire for love be satisfied.People are on all different levels. My Church
has barely scratched the surface of
My deep love. They are going through
the motions. My love is endless,
My love is penetrating. You can
go ever deeper into the abyss of
My love.You see with human minds. An ocean of
love I have to give you. You stand
by the shore and put your toes in.My beloved, immerse yourself deeply into
My Heart.Come through My pierced side. This is
My deepest wound for it goes into
the deepest recesses of My Heart. Deep, deep,
deep is My love for you. Focus on the wound
in My side. What flowed out was Blood and
water. I immerse you in the vat of My
love. Water washes you clean. Come to
My Heart ever pure. Only a pure heart
can unite deeply with My Heart.
My ways are difficult. I am a fountain of
mercy and love. Come to My Heart
through My pierced side.Water I give to you to wash you, My
babies, My loved ones, My beloved, Oh
how I want to be ever joined to you in
such oneness. I give to you My body and
blood to eat. Such closeness. You scratch
the surface and settle for so little. You
measure everything you do. My love is
immeasurable. You do not know even
a little the depths of My love.Quiet your fears. I am ever attentive to
your every need. Let go, surrender and you
will have peace. You are fighting My
infinite love. You stand on the shore and
stick in your toe, immerse yourself in
the pool of My love. You will never doubt again.
April 5, 1995
Mary: On April 5, 1995, I called the first public gatherings of rosaries given on the 5th to the public.
R. She said it is 5 because of the 5 wounds of Jesus and the 5 blasphemies against her.
Jesus: My Mother called April 5, 1995 and asked for public gatherings on the 5ths to help make reparation to Our Hearts for the offenses against Them.
March 5, 1995 - Fr. Carter's Mass
Overwhelmed with the Father's love
R. God loves us no matter how I am. He loves
us unconditionally. In all of our faults
and all of our failings in His great
goodness Jesus loves us.Jesus: I give to you My child, My abundant
life. I outpour to you My abundant
grace. I draw you ever closer to My
beating Heart. Do not ever be bowed
down. Know the immensity of the
Father's love for you. He so loved this
world that He gave His only Son for
love of you.R. To realize that the Father loved
me so much He sent His only Son
into this world to free me from
my Sins, so I would be with Him
forever in heaven.The Father loved me so much
He sent His Son as a Sacrifice and
Jesus took on human form.I realize so immensely the love
of the Father, manifest in His
Son, Jesus Christ.If we realize our oneness with God and
His great love, we cannot help but realize
our oneness with one another. If I am
one with Him, if I realize His immense
love, I don't have to worry what others think,
I am to love them. I see them
as my brother who I love and want
to give love to. I see more with the eyes
of God, with kindness and compassion and
love, of being united out of love.Bathe me in Your love; fill me and saturate
me so I am bursting with Your light — Your life
in me. Let this love of God radiate to all and
unite us forever deeply in the love of our
beloved Father. For we truly are little
children, we are brothers and sisters
and He is our Father, Mary is our most
loving Mother, Jesus is my most
intimate Spouse and the Holy Spirit
my dearest friend.Realizing the love of the Father creates
such oneness with one another. We are filled
with His love. He loves us unconditionally.
I am one with everyone in the room.
My Father created each soul, Jesus
redeemed each soul. I am one with
them. As members of the Body of Christ
we are one.I am one in Him, I cannot have division
with one man and be united to Him.
To unite to Him more deeply I must
be one with them.The Father so loved me He gave His only
Son. If I realize this, I want to love
everyone.The more I become one in Him, I love
every man.
April 5, 1995
Come Deep in My Heart
Jesus: My dearly beloved,
As you live and breathe, I live and breathe
in you.Come so close to Me, deeply into My Heart. You
child have been touched by God, write of your experiences.R. It is now the 5th and Mary has called a special
rosary. I opened this book and what I saw was
Mary has called a special rosary.I am overwhelmed by the presence of the Father,
Son and Holy Spirit in this moment I touch eternity for
the exposed Eucharist is here and He is in this
room.Jesus: See My blood, red thick, it is through the blood
pouring from My wounds that you are saved. I
bathe you in the waters of salvation, I wash
you in My Blood. I am Jesus, the Son of God,
I speak to you here.R. A weight has been lifted and I behold the face of
God in our midst. This face is seen through
the eyes of Faith.Jesus: Faith My child, you can move a mountain
with faith in Me.I wash you, I clean you, I care for you. Come
and enter through My wounded side.R. Jesus in the tomb and on the third day
He rises from the dead, His body is glorified,
He drops the wrappings, the earth quakes
and Jesus comes forth from the tomb.Death has no power over Him.
They had locked Him away in a tomb and
He came forth triumphant from
the dead.He has risen, we are His faithful witnesses.
He has shed the bonds of this earth and
risen triumphant to His glory.Song: Glory, Glory, Glory Lord
April 6, 1995 - Blue Book Meeting
Jesus: If a person is dying then you think
they should be praying.If you are reading this letter, you
should be praying as if today might
be your last day.The day is promised to no man, souls
will be condemned to eternal damnation.
You delay no longer.I have called, I am ignored. I will
not give you any signs, read these
letters My beloved ones. You want
signs and wonders, My word is
enough.To have union with Me you must
be rooted in faith.You look for signs and wonders, you
want Me to tell you everything
clearly.Blessed are they who have not seen
and have believed. When you want
more signs, you are weakening your faith.
A relationship with Me is based on
a deep faith. Spend time alone with Me
in front of the tabernacle, time
alone at home. You are looking for
your answers in the world.I speak to you in your hearts in
the silent moments you spend with
Me. I cannot speak if you do not
take time to listen.Every person involved in this
renewal needs to spend one hour of
silent prayer with Me each day,
preferably in front of the tabernacle.
How satan will busy your minds to
distract you and you go without
your supplies.Children, read My messages in
the Blue Books. I am talking
to you. You say you do not have time for
My messages. You are missing My
letters given to you. Open the
book anywhere and you will be given
your answers. I love you, so much,
I am Jesus your ardent lover and
friend. Come and I will comfort thee.R. If we do not go to Him to find the answers
we sometimes find the wrong answers.
April 6, 1995

Gifts I Give
Jesus: My dear child,
Listen and you will be taught. I am
using you for a great mission to teach
My apostles. Great gifts I am giving
to you, My dear heart. As you are in
your heart, you will be to others.
Purity is the key, I will see to the
third Blue Book, I will see to all
that is happening to you. You must
surrender totally and let Me work
in you.Pray to the Spirit to sanctify your
heart. Your heart needs to be so pure.
I am Jesus, I will mold you and shape
you into My special saint.I love you so dearly, My Rita,
I love you, I love you, I love you.

much He gave His only Son so you
would have life.I love you, My beloved.

Joyful Mystery Meditations
Annunciation
Each pregnant woman has such a glow.
Think of the life of Jesus growing in Mary's
womb. God's presence within Mary as she
carried the child. Mary is the Mother of God.Jesus: Are you willing to suffer what they did
to Me for love of Me? You offer yourself —
see Me fall under My cross, see Me
hang to My death, see Me, My hands
nailed to the cross, this is what the
world will do to you for loving
God. Are you willing to walk the
walk of ridicule and persecution
for My Name's sake?R. Lord, I will do as the Father desires
me to do. I want only to be united closer
to Thee.Last night saw a
ball around the moon, I cried.
Felt the great love of my Father, as
a little, little child. I am His.
This is my family: Father, Mother,
Jesus and Holy Spirit.
Visitation
Think of Mary so beautiful to carry
the child Jesus in her womb.See John in Elizabeth's womb.
Jesus grew inside Mary. John was
born.Prepare you a way for the coming
of the Savior, for He has come to
this world to shed His light.You are the light of the world, a city
set on a hill will shine to the world.
Birth of Jesus
Luke 2: 4-7
So Joseph set out from the town of Nazareth in Galilee for Judaea ... in order to be registered together with Mary, his betrothed, who was with child. Now it happened that, while they were there, the time came for her to have her child, and she gave birth to a son, her first–born. She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger because there was no room for them in the living–space.
Sing: Silent Night
Presentation
Luke 2: 33-34
As the child’s father and mother were wondering at the things that were being said about him, Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, ‘Look, he is destined for the fall and for the rise of many in Israel, destined to be a sign that is opposed—
Sing: Little Baby Hands and Feet
Finding in the Temple
Excerpt from Mother at Our Side - God's Will—Our Guiding Principle
The scene reminds us of the guiding principle of Jesus' life—loving conformity to His Father's will. Although Mary and Joseph were returning home, in some way Jesus knew He was supposed to remain in the temple at this particular time. His course of action was no different in this instance than it had been in the past and would be in the future. His Father's will was made manifest, and He obeyed; His Father showed the way, and He followed. The Father's will was always Jesus' way, every day, in all matters. As followers of Jesus, His guiding principle must also be ours.
April 6, 1995 - Letter to Fr. Carter
Jesus: Dear Fr. Carter,
My dear priest-son, you need to
help her circulate these letters on the
Eucharist to the priest. I am writing
letters to My beloved priest-sons of
My great love for them. Priests
need to know how I love them. When
they are filled with My love they
will preach about My love to others.Please read the message January 22, 1995.
R. Jesus withstood the Passion, Jesus knew
always the Father's love.God so loved this world, He sent His only
Son into this world for love of
me so I would be with Him
forever in heaven.
April 6, 1995
Beyond Signs and Wonders
Jesus: I am drawing souls to Me that will love Me deeply
in their hearts, not the sign and wonder people.This is your suffering to be neglected, ignored,
to know God deeply in your heart. Remember how
I have tested you and tried you in the past.These messages are not for the signs and wonder,
they are for My apostles that will spread
My love deep in their hearts.Interior union, I crave deep union, to be
so one with each person, so they can
say as St. Paul
Galatians 2: 19-20
...I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me.
Jesus: Stop what you are doing in your busy lives,
be alone with Me.I am truly present.
April 8, 1995 - Saturday
When I Worry, I have taken my Focus off of Him
Jesus: Do not worry what others think, live only to please Me.
R. Last night the organ would not work, there were about 1000 people
at the Center, the mike didn't work, when I played from the
Day you Were Born, it sounded as if I had my hands on the
wrong keys. What lengths I feel I have to explain myself.
All I have to do is to try to please Him, to act in the Father's
will with love. He is teaching me to not worry what others
think, just live to please Him. I would rather do anything
then offend Him.I am not perfect, others are not perfect, always love.
Model your life after Him. I must try to imitate Him in
my actions. I see more and more that I must live to please
Him and not worry what others think. When I am worrying
about what they think, I have taken my focus off of Him.

Our Mission Given by the Father, we live under Mary's Mantle

He is our Savior.Sing: A Song from Jesus
Visitation
Manifest Himself in the womb.
goes to His precursor
John is touched in the womb by the grace of God.Even in the womb, John declares the glory of
Jesus.See Mary go to Elizabeth — John jumps in
Elizabeth's womb.Call to purification.
We are given a sharing in His life at baptism.
Dear God help us to be sensitive to the touch of Your grace.
Jesus at the Visitation was hidden in mother's womb — Now Jesus is
hidden in the tabernacle, under the appearance of bread and wine.He stands at the door of our hearts and knocks
'Behold I stand at the door and knock'
Every grace a visit from Jesus.Dear God,
Clothe our souls in virtue for You, our Bridegroom, the Bridegroom of our soul.
John jumped in the womb of Elizabeth - hidden!!Many treat Jesus with indifference and coldness.
Dear God we adore
Thy holy presence under the veil.
Nativity
The angel appeared to the shepherds — they were filled with
fear. And there was brightness all around them.For this day is born to you a Savior,
who is Christ the Lord.
And suddenly there was with the Angel
a multitude of the heavenly host,
praising God and saying. (Luke 2:11,13 )Glory to God in the highest, and on
earth peace to men of good will. (Luke 2:14)This day is born to you a Savior. (Luke 2:11)
Jesus shared with the animals in a cave.
'You shall find an infant wrapped in swaddling
clothes and laid in a manger' (Luke 2:12)An infant is helpless, little weak cries,
softens our hearts
not as of a royal house, not clothed in gold.Jesus is approachable - with confidence and love.

3. The Loss of the Child Jesus in the Temple. And a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart O Mary!

5. Jesus Dies on the Cross. Jesus: Spread My Love throughout this world. As I watch you each day, I watch you this second. I am watching you this very minute. I am asking you to spread My love throughout this world to the hurting souls that need to know this love. Souls will be lost because they did not know My love. Souls will be lost. And a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart O Mary!
6. Mary receives the lifeless body of her Beloved Son in her arms. R. After He was taken down from the cross. This is the call - dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
R. The love that They have for each one of us - that Jesus truly died and gave the last drop of His Blood and that Mary His Loving Mother, suffered such immense suffering. Our hearts will never know how her heart was torn in her chest. She bore no wounds, but her heart, how it suffered! And a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart O Mary!
7. The Burial of Jesus. And a sword, too, shall pierce your Heart O Mary!
Finding in the Temple
Excerpt from Mother at Our Side - God's Will—Our Guiding Principle
This event in Christ's life also demonstrates that conformity to God's will sometimes brings hurt or sorrow to loved ones. Jesus knew that His remaining behind would cause suffering for Mary and Joseph—we can well imagine their anxiety. Jesus was sorry this had to be. He certainly was not insensitive to His parent's feelings, yet He had to do what He did. There can be similar situations in our own lives. Precisely because we are striving to seek out and do God's will, we may be causing hurt to loved ones. We know, however, there is no other course of action if we are to be open to God's designs for us.
R. In baptism we receive a sharing in His life —
we become children of God and heirs of heaven.
ResurrectionJesus is the new Adam
We want to be one with Him.
In baptism we share in His life —
We want to remain in the state of grace —
Through Him, With Him, In Him
R. We want to be purified — transformed more and more into His
image and likeness.Recognize the dignity — that God gives
us a sharing in His life in baptism.

My Religious Need Adoration
Jesus: Pray to be intimately joined to Me. Be about our love affair.
Seek to have great union with Me — oneness — I will minister
to My people through you My religious. I
want to be one with My priests and
to lead the suffering souls back
to My Heart. Priests need one hour
of adoration daily. Sisters have forgotten
their hearts. They have turned
hard and forgotten how I love them.
I want to live in such union with them.My answers are given in your heart.
My answers are given when you spend
time alone with Me. Open your hearts
and pray to the Spirit. Surrender your
lives to Me, My beloved religious.
You have forgotten your reason
for becoming a religious.
You are My special spouse, My
special ones, those I have
called. You were called
by Me to do this work.You have answered the call and forgotten
our love affair. I am in love with you.
I want to be one in you.
My wounds were deep — Through My hands and feet —
without bounds — So is My love for you —
My love is without bounds.
Your love is so weak. It is barely
on the surface. Come deeply into My
Heart. I penetrate your heart and
ponder your heart and your ways.
Such indifference. My Heart bleeds
for your indifference My religious.
I am Jesus and you have
forgotten Me, but I have not
forgotten you.R. Such knowledge is acquired
in intimate union with Jesus. No
human can tell us what He
communicates to us in this
loving, intimate union.What are we doing? We can be looking
for our answers about God in
the world. We can forget how uniquely
created each person is, how uniquely
we can love God and others. He wants to
communicate uniquely to each of us
in a love relationship. Closer
than any husband or wife, closer
than any human can communicate.
He communicates to us His
Wisdom. He gives to us His
Knowledge, it is a knowing in our
being. A oneness that only I can have
with Him.Where are we going in our busy
lives that we are overlooking such
great gifts of His sharing His life
with us. How He loves us.
He is outpouring these to us. We need
this intimacy to acquire this intimate
knowledge with Jesus.Jesus: The priests need to come to My Heart!
You can forget about the gift you receive
in an intimate love affair with Me —
You can miss the mystery —These writings are a gift to give you insight
into the hidden mysteries —You miss the gift of My beautiful letters of love to
you — I love you, I love you, I love you.R. Jesus said, the priests need to become one in Him.
They need one hour in adoration. What is Jesus
saying. If we go to the world, if we
go to our books, we get knowledge.But Jesus communicates
to each soul in their hearts. He ponders
the way of our heart. He knows
the Father's plan for us. He writes His
plan on our heart. His door is open
to speak to us in our heart.
April 8, 1995
R. We are bringing back people to His
love.We can acquire knowledge from an intimate relationship with Jesus.
Love is in depth not surface.
Love — depth
Immeasurable — try to measure this.
Jesus says bring back
My priests to My love.

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 10.00 plus postageGuiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A — The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15

It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15

We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15
