March 26, 2000 - Witness Letter - Kathleen W.                   

    I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in love! I write this for the honor and glory of God and in thanksgiving to Jesus for calling me to this Movement.

    Jesus says in St. John's Gospel, "You did not choose me, no, I chose you…" Jn 15:16.

    What a calling! To be chosen to be a Handmaid of the Good Shepherd! His special spouse! The spouse of THE KING & CREATOR of the Universe!

    WOW! And a Movement personally directed by Jesus! Thank you, Jesus!

    Words cannot express all I would like to say. Since 1st grade I wanted to be a nun. I saw the nuns at my school and I wanted to be like them. Unfortunately growing up... all the peer pressure in school and the struggles of young adulthood took away any hope of being a nun. I followed the ways of the world and left Jesus out of my life.

    During my senior year of nursing, the seed of pursuing a religious vocation sprang up again in my heart. I started attending daily Mass as often as I could, and Mary our Mother was bringing me closer to Jesus. My 1st choice was Mother Teresa's Order, however, that didn't happen for me.

    After graduation from nursing school I went to a Bible Institute Retreat at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. While there, I attended a Baptism of the Spirit Seminar and felt a strong presence of the Holy Spirit.

    That fall, in 1996, I went back to Ohio for another retreat, and while I was in the chapel one evening, I picked up God's Blue Book II and read a message on Communion from Jesus. I almost fell out of my pew! The message touched me deep in my heart. Thankfully, I was able to take the book home. the messages were awesome! I never knew of having such an intimate relationship with Jesus!

    I started spending an hour everyday after Mass. I joined the Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart and later started a Shepherds of Christ Prayer Chapter. I got the other Blue Books, the rosary book and rosary tapes. I felt so committed to praying the prayers and the rosary mediations were so powerful! I thank Jesus and Mary for all these revelations!

    I heard about the handmaids in 1998, while ordering through the Shepherds of Christ. I was really interested in them. I thought maybe this is where God is calling me. I kept praying to do His will.

    Jesus, in His time, made it all work out. When we give our lives to Jesus, He can do more than we could ever ask for or imagine! Jesus loves us!

    I feel so blessed and privileged to be in the formation of being a handmaid! Thank you, my Father, for this Movement and all the beautiful people in it! Thank you, Holy Spirit, for your tremendous work in my soul! Thank you, Jesus, for choosing me for this special calling. And like Mary, my life is a continuous FIAT. "My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord; my spirit rejoices in God my Savior." and "Behold, I am the handmaid of the Lord. May it be done to me according to your word."

Messenger:   5 Years Ago  December 5, 1996

                OUR LORD APPEARED TO ME

                    shortly after 12:30 PM at the

                    point of death at

                    Holy Cross-Immaculata Church

Excerpt from December 1, 1999 message about December 5, 1996

Messenger: After she appeared for almost 2 1/2 years on the 5ths, on the 2 1/2 year anniversary Christ appeared at the point of death, His mouth open and moving. His jaw kept moving.

I was horrified as I saw Him. I cried and could hardly stand it.

What was so awful was here was my Jesus at the point of death on the cross. He looked as if He could do nothing because of His condition and His mouth kept going up and down, and no words came out.

At the traditional rosary (I had done them now for 2 1/2 years of 5ths) that evening at 6:30 with all the Shepherds of Christ people there, He said He moved His mouth because no one was listening.

This was December 5, 1996, after all those visits of Mary on the 5ths when very few came and listened.

Excerpt from December 2, 1999 message about December 5, 1996

Messenger: From the rosary December 5, 1996, 12 days before Mary appeared on the building in Clearwater, Florida.

Jesus appeared dying on the cross earlier in the day, His mouth moving, but I heard no words.

At 6:30 that evening He gave these messages during the gathering Mary called for the 5^th of the month.

Messages from the December 5, 1996 Rosary
service began at 6:30

Jesus speaks: I am alive, I am alive, I am alive. My beloved ones, I show you My face. Do you see the Body of a Man? Do you see Me alive on the cross? I am speaking to you but the world does not hear. They do not hear the message that I deliver to them. You must pray fervently. You must come to Me that I can be one in you and that I can operate through you as you go into the world this day. I love you. I love you with the most tender love. I am Jesus. I am alive. You are My main soldiers that I will send into the world to lead the strayed ones to My Heart.

Jesus speaks: The days ahead will be dark days. You must come to My Heart and take shelter in My Heart. It is there that you will be rooted on a firm rock, for My Heart is your home. You will not know the terrors of the night if you stay rooted in My Heart.

Jesus speaks: Division is blackness in the heart. You must not be divided from anyone. You must remain in union with all men. You must see yourselves as part of the Father's family. Each one of you is so important to the Father's plan.

Jesus speaks: And you, My beloved ones, will lead this light across the earth as you are joined in one mind and one heart in this Movement, especially in this prayer group. You are My core leaders to send the messages of My love to the world. There will be unity. There will be one flock and one Shepherd and you will lead this light across the earth to the far corners of the earth. But you must have this vision within you. You must know that I am speaking to you. You must not doubt and give in to any confusion of Satan to divide you or make you doubt. You must believe that you are a part of this vision to send My light, My unity across this earth.

Jesus speaks: You are deaf and you are dumb for you do not hear the words that I speak, My beloved world. You have clogged your ears and you've turned your heads the other way. And your children are murdered in the streets and within the wombs of their mothers. I am Jesus. I speak and no one hears.

Jesus speaks: There is human life from the first moment of conception and no man has the right to take the life that the Father has placed within a child.

Jesus speaks: Your feeble minds cannot comprehend My ways, but I have imparted to you, My chosen ones, insights into My divine mysteries. Open your hearts and I will fill you with My divine love.

Jesus speaks: You are so limited in your vision that you do not realize that I truly speak to you. You want signs and you want wonders, but you know in your hearts when you read the word of God how alive I truly am in those words. For I have given to you My life and I have shared insight into the mysteries of this life in these rosaries. You must thank the great God above for the great gifts that I am giving to you. I have given to you these gifts because of My immense love for you, My chosen ones. I give to you great gifts, for I am expecting great things of you. I give, but you must give to Me.

Jesus speaks: I come to you and I give you My love. I give you great gifts and I am rejected. I am treated indifferently and hated. I give to you Myself in the Eucharist. I am longing and I am thirsting for you to come and to look at Me and to tell Me how you love Me. I want to hear the love from your mouth. I want you to tell Me how much you love Me. So few souls come to Me and give Me their heartfelt love. You must pray that you will love Me more and more. I am longing for you. I am a Person. I want to be loved. I came onto this earth a little baby. I am Love. I want to be loved by you. Nothing will fill your soul but My love. The world has led so many astray. They do not even come to Me and talk to Me and tell Me of their love. Will you come to Me? Will you give Me love? I want you to love Me.

Jesus speaks: I am alive, I am alive, I am alive and I am treated as a dead object. Will you go into this world and tell the world that I am alive and I am longing for their love? I give to you, My beloved ones, My undying love.

Jesus speaks: You are My soldiers of love. I am asking you to look at My face, to see My face. You have a Father that loves you. You must live your lives always trying to please Him. You must not be divided in any way from any of your brothers. You must not give in to the temptations of Satan to fill your hearts with any bitterness or anger, for it will divide you from Me.

Jesus speaks: I am pleading with you to love. I spread My arms and I gave My all on the cross. I am asking you to love this much that you would lay your lives down for each other, that you will spread your arms and that you will love one another. I am guarding you. In your every breath, I am with you. You must read the Blue Book messages every day. Read at least one message a day and listen to these rosaries, for Satan will press on you and try to get you to quit. You must not give in to him. You must go to the tabernacle and spend time alone with Me every day. If you cannot go to the tabernacle, go to your room and spend quiet moments with Me. Go to daily Mass and Communion and pray the rosary. I am calling you to this immense mission. You do not know the immensity of your calling. I have called you by name. I beg you to listen to Me. Do you hear My voice? Do you see My mouth move? So many do not hear, for they do their own wills. I will speak through you and I will spread My messages of love to this world as you spread My Blue Books to the world. These are My messages of love. You must not be afraid. Think of the souls of 18 year olds that are black in sin. The children are the sickest of all, for parents are teaching the children sick lessons. This is serious. Are you serious? Will you help Me spread My message of love to this world? If you do not speak, who will speak My words to the world? I am asking you to carry the messages in the Blue Books and the rosaries to the world. This is My mighty medicine to heal the wounds on the wounded hearts. I will heal their wounds with My love. I have written the messages of My love on your hearts. This has always been part of the Father's plan that you were here this day. This is your calling, to help bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart and the Triumph of My Mother's Heart. I have given to you these messages. You are My messengers. Will you spread these messages to the world? You must live by these messages yourselves. I am alive and I live in you. I am calling, My beloved ones. How will you answer Me?

Song: I Have Called You By Name

Jesus speaks: I am alive, I am alive, I am alive. You are My apostles. I have called each of you by name. Each one of you is so important to My Heart.

Where Will You Go On the Day of Reckoning?  

December 5, 1993 - 5:10a.m.

Jesus speaks:  I come, you wait, you are filled.

R. It seems so long since I talked to You, My Lord.

Jesus speaks:  Time is so short-here today, gone tomorrow-and your reward awaits you. What glory awaits him who serves the Lord and his life is over? Where will you go on that day of reckoning? How is the state of your soul? Did you spend your life in search of a kingdom, never to find one but an idle pursuit, looking here and there for a kingdom, but never finding what you sought? The kingdom you seek is not of this world. Your life is not its own reward. Your life is being spent for the reward to follow. This life is not the reward in itself. This life is only the batting of an eye, the dropping of a pin, and the life hereafter is at hand. Where are you going, My little one? Did you spend your life in such idle pursuits, only to find that your search was in vain? Your life was empty and now what do you have to show for how you lived? Is all that mattered up like smoke in your face and you say, "Is that all there is?"

    And what did you do with your little life here? When I paraded in front of you, you knew there was more to your life but you closed your eyes and told yourself, "Nay, I live for the likes of this world. Crazy are those who speak of a life hereafter." You heard, you were made aware, you had opportunities, you laughed, you sneered, you ran amok and told yourself you were all that mattered. This life was your end. You were going to have it all right here-one, glorious, true life. You were in pursuit of the treasure found in your house, at your job, in your children, in your pocket. You blinded yourself to any other possibility and continued on your willful little way. You were sought after by Him. You were probed, you were pursued, you were shown the light. I loved you your whole life. I followed you and opened My heart to you and you closed yours and spit in My face and you walked away. You walked over your brothers and you hardened your little hearts.

    You pursued idle pursuits and you ran around with a worldly-focused gaze. Tunnel vision. You knew you were not in a tunnel. You knew from My pursuit of you that there was much more but you closed yourself off and went full steam ahead down the wrong road. You did not see the birds of the air or the children at play. You saw a world to be gained and a goal to be achieved. You sought an empty treasure in a barren field and when I stopped at each crossing and said, "Oh, that you would come and follow Me," you ignored My prompting and proceeded like a blind dog down the same path toward the barren field. And your heart lacked joy and it became harder and harder as you trod, but at each crossing you say, "Nay, Lord, I will find My reward here and be off."

    Oh, you silly fool! To live your life for such emptiness. The only life that is is in Me. You never die. This is but a test. This is a test for you to receive a real reward. I have prodded you and tried to lead you toward Me but you spit in My face and went your willful way. Oh, little ones, eternity is so long. It doesn't end today or tomorrow. It goes on and on and on and never ends. This is a test to see how you will fare in the end. To put all your treasures in this life is to store up nothing. You take not one dime with you. All that remains is the things of the heart, your love of God and your love for your fellow man.

    To follow God is to find the real reward, a field brimming with milk and honey. And you will behold the face of God! This and this alone feeds your hungry soul. All else leads the soul to barren lands. Store up a treasure of gold for the life hereafter. When you come to that crossing remove the blinders from your eyes and look at your beloved Jesus, staring right into your heart. Take the hard crust from your chest and let your heart become alive in His love. Do not pursue idle pursuits. Go down the road that leads to Jesus and at the end you will see His face! His road is well marked all through your life. Your sisters and brothers who loved Him looked into your eyes, but you wore blinders and laughed at them.

    Oh, silly! A few years? For what? You don't get anything here but heartache, momentary pleasure that leaves you empty, so you numb your hearts with TV or alcohol or food or sex. It lasts only a moment, but you numb the craving in the soul. Oh, poor starved little ones, your soul can only be fed by Me. You are starving yourself to death. Your soul is withering and dying. Your victory is already won by Me Who died a brutal death for love of you! Come to Me. I knock at the door. Will you open or will you run amok down roads that lead to emptiness. On that day of reckoning when I, in all My pursuits of your soul and My saddened heart, finally have to turn you away and say, "I do not know you. I pursued you your whole life. I stood by your side. I walked by you the whole way and you never turned your head. You looked for your glory here and I waited and waited. I sent others to show you the way to the golden reward but you laughed and continued in your willfulness to the barren desert."

    Oh, child, I love you. Many have prayed and sacrificed for you but you would not turn your hearts to Me. I am the way, the truth and the life. All other roads lead to destruction of the soul. My ways are not easy, but they are filled with peace, love and joy. My ways are everlasting. Your soul craves this union with Me. You are fighting off that which your soul thirsts after. It doesn't feel good, but you close your eyes and numb your craving. Oh, turn to Me and find rest, My little ones, now before it is too late! I am as close as your breath.

How Will You Write the Life of Your Soul

December 5, 1993 - 6:00 a.m.

Jesus speaks:  Come, come, beloved of My Father. What can I do to get you to turn your wills toward Me? You have a free will. You choose your destiny. Will it be Me or your own destruction? When you sin you are hardened in heart. It feels very bad but you justify your actions. Your hearts have turned into stone and your eyes are covered with rags and you see nothing before you.

    Oh, little ones, no one can reach you. My heart laments your thirsty little souls and I cry to you as one Who suffered a brutal death for love of you. And your ears! You have plugged them up and you wander in darkness on a useless path toward your own destruction.

    Come, please come to Me. I am so loving. I have so many gifts to give you. I forgive the greatest sins and you are made free and filled with such love. Come, oh open your gates to Me. Let Me in. I tell you this life is but a breath in the scoop of eternity. Knowing Me is not going to church on Sunday with a closed heart. Knowing Me is living your life in Me every minute of the day. To know Me is such a reward. I am so loving and good to you. I fill you with peace and love and joy. Even in trials you are at peace. I lament your love. Please turn to Me. I am an ardent lover waiting by your side. I never move, even in the darkest hours of your life. It is you who have chosen such darkness. My ways are light, even in suffering. To know Me is to walk a lighted path. To be absent of Me is to live in darkness. I love you, little ones. Turn your wills to Me. Satan has a strong bind on you if I am not part of your life. You have become his slave and you think you are free. You are being held captive by Satan. You are not free. True freedom comes from knowing Me! What can I say that I have not said? It is your choice. You choose your own destiny. You are the author of your soul. How will you write the life of your soul? If you are to have life eternal, you must write your biography according to God. To write your own book is to lead to a bad seller. It will never go to the house of the Lord. It will go to the tomb of destruction. I am the Good Shepherd. I lead My sheep and they follow Me. I hold them in My arms and comfort them on their way. I am loving and I care for them. Some go astray and I lament their passing because I care for them the same as those who follow Me, but they are willful and follow their own whims and they fall off a cliff and are destroyed. I lament the loss of My little sheep, but they choose their fate and I tried all I could to save them.

    Oh, little ones, you choose your fate and all My promptings will not change your willful ways. But your willful ways will lead you to everlasting damnation. I can say no more.

    Say the Our Father and listen to every word. It says all you need.

    I love you so. Jesus Christ, your Savior!

December 5, 1994

     

A Message given to Father Carter, December 5, 1994, two years before Jesus appeared on the cross with His mouth moving at the point of death.

Jesus speaks: My beloved priest-companion,

December 5, 1995 - Joyful Mysteries
Prayers began at 6:30

Jesus:  O how dearly I love each and everyone of My precious children that have gathered in this room this evening. I am Jesus, your beloved Savior. I love you with the most ardent love. Open wide your hearts and let Me touch you in a special way. My Mother and I are with you to give you messages of Our love and messages about Our lives. Open your hearts and you will be touched with My abundant grace. How tenderly I love you. I have called you, My sweet loving children. I am with you always, always. Do not fear, I will not abandon you. I am with you. Release all fear and anxieties. Let Me enter your heart in a very special way, in a very deep union, during the rosary. I long to love you and long for your love, given to Me. Tell Me from your heart how dearly you love Me. How this pleases Me so! I am Jesus. I love you, I love you, I love you. You are so dear to Me.

Jesus:  Die to yourself My child and let Me work in you. Come and dwell in the heart of My Mother and let the Holy Spirit move within her heart and transform you more and more into My image and likeness. As you are transformed you will be lead closer and closer to My Father. I am Jesus, I love you in a special way.

Presentation of Our Lord in the Temple

8. Mary:  Let me tenderly caress you my beloved children. How I love you and want to lead you ever closer to the Heart of my Son. It is in dwelling in my heart that you will dwell deeper and deeper in the Heart of Jesus. How He longs and waits for you to come.

    I am Mary, your Mother. Listen to me. I call out and my call falls on deaf ears, for many are not heeding the messages that I deliver. I am giving this message to you. Come to my heart and I will lead you to the Heart of my Son. I love you. It is through you, my children of light, that you will light up this dark world. I am sending you into the darkness and you will help many know the light of my Son. I am calling. This is an urgent request to help my little children that are dying in their hearts.

9. Mary:  I am asking you to help me to spread these rosaries, to spread the rosaries to all the world, to spread the rosaries to the adults and to the children. The rosary is a very powerful weapon against Satan. Satan is so strong this day, my dear little children. I am calling out to you. You must pray with all your heart. Do not be taunted by Satan. He wants to drive you away from my Son, Jesus. I will lead you ever closer to this burning love.
   

Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple

Mary:  We call out to you on the fifth day of the month to help to spread this movement across the world and to the children. I am Mary, your Mother. I am calling you to open your heart and help to lead many to me and my Son, to help all to consecrate their hearts daily to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I promise you, my little children, that there will be peace in this world, but many will suffer great trials and many will lose their souls. I am Mary, your Mother. I am calling. This is an urgent call for time is short. Many will lose their soul. Please – my little, lost children are suffering so in this world.

1. Mary:  The murder of the children in the womb of their mothers, my dear ones, this is a crime, the slaughter of innocent babies in the wombs of their own mother!

2. Mary:  The children that were taught about sex at such an early age, young children—five and six years old—what do I say? Many have closed their eyes!

3. Mary:  How will little children know of the love of God? So many of the teachings that are being taught this day have turned to such evilness. I beg you from my motherly heart to reach the children, to be a mother to each child, to pray from your heart as you have never prayed before. Pray, my dear ones and reach the children, my little children. My heart bleeds for the children in America.

4. Mary:  Children of wealth—given such good things and look how they act!

5. Mary:  What more do I say? Many children will lose their souls. My Son is love. I am calling out to you to turn your hearts to love, to go to daily Mass and Communion and to die to yourselves and unite to the burning love of My Son, Jesus. At every Mass offer yourselves as a sacrifice united with My Son, Jesus to the Father and pray that you will be joined ever closer to the pure and tender Heart of my Son, Jesus.

7. Mary:  The darkness covered the earth and the light of the love of my Son was seen in the hearts of the children of the light. I am calling you to light up this darkened world, this world that has turned to sin. I am calling, I am pleading, I am sending out an urgent plea to help me to reach the children of America with the rosary and to go to the schools and to tell the children about the lives of Jesus and Mary.

    I am Mary, your Mother. The rosary is a mighty weapon against Satan. Satan prowls this earth looking for souls to devour. He is aimed at the youth, my little precious youth that do not even know of the love of my Son. Will you help spread his love to the little children in this world?

8. Mary:  The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph but many souls will be lost. What you do with your life this day to help me to spread the message of His love will make a difference to this hurting world. Do not be fooled by the false peace that you see for underneath there is much turmoil. Look into the hearts of your youth—look into their eyes, go to the schools and watch the youth.

9. Mary:  Tell the children about the Mass and the Eucharist. Tell them of my Son, Jesus, who is truly present this day. This is the healing that the youth need—to come to Jesus in the Eucharist, to come to daily Mass. I am Mary, your Mother, I am calling out to you, my beloved ones to help me to spread the love of my Son to the children of America, for many will lose their souls for their willfulness and their sins.

10. Mary:  This is a rosary from the hearts of Jesus and Mary. Will you help spread these rosaries to this world? Many do not even know how to pray the rosary. The rosary is a powerful tool to use against Satan. I beg you to help spread the rosary to the souls of America.

      ~ December 5, 1995 ~

      MARY OUR MOTHER

    Mary is the Mother of God. God the Father sent His Only Begotten Son.

    Mary is conceived immaculate. To not recognize this is to not realize the magnificence of God. God could not come in sin. God, Who is all good, could not be conceived in the body of a person tainted with original sin.

    " 'Father,' he said, 'if you are willing, take this cup away from me. Nevertheless, let your will be done, not mine.'" (Lk. 22:42)

    I see that God is all-powerful. I am a little piece of the puzzle. I am not the whole puzzle. My love of Jesus and the Mass is why I write this book.

    Mary, conceived without sin, is the New Eve. Mary was made our Mother under the cross. Mary is the Mother of our spiritual life. I have felt the pain of Mary under the cross, the pain for her little, lost children.

    Mary is the Mother of God. Christ took on flesh. Mary is the spouse of the Holy Spirit. She is Mary Immaculate. Jesus took on Mary's flesh and blood. To not love Mary is to not recognize His great love for us. We miss our own dignity and honor. Divinity and humanity meet in Mary.

    There are five blasphemies against Mary. She has asked us to make the first Saturday devotion. Sr. Lucia ask Our Lord why there were five first Saturdays.

    He revealed to her:

My daughter, the reason is simple. There are five types of offenses and blasphemies committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary:

1. Blasphemies against the Immaculate Conception.
2. Blasphemies against Her Perpetual Virginity.
3. Blasphemies against Her Divine Maternity, in refusing
     at the same time to recognize Her as the Mother of men.
4. The blasphemies of those who publicly seek to sow in 
      the hearts of children indifference or scorn, or even 
      hatred of this Immaculate Mother.
5. The offenses of those who outrage Her directly in Her holy images.⁴⁶

    We must make the first Saturday devotion to make reparation to her, for the indifferences against her Immaculate Heart.

    I can see the devil pushing man away from Mary! The devil knows that Mary is a link between heaven and earth. There is a great link between God and man in Mary.

    We realize more the mystery of God's love for us when we see how God loved Mary.

    Act of Incarnation: God unites to man. My greatest pain felt, lately, is under the cross.

    Mary knows the great gift given from God to His creatures. She is our spiritual Mother. She experiences the pain of her lost children. She sees before her, her Son covered with blood.

    Mary says it is because of pride they do not accept her. It is because of pride, some think Mary cannot be any higher than them. They do not recognize election.

    In having this pride, many miss the great messages given from God. In having pride, we miss a major link between heaven and earth in Mary. It is the Father's will that Mary is our spiritual Mother.

    We reach a deeper level in the spiritual life only in the heart of Mary. It is His will. She was chosen, sinless, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, and the Mother of God.

    We can only go to the deepest chambers of the Heart of Christ through the pure and sinless heart of Mary. We are sinners. She is immaculate.

    Besides the messages associated with the major Fatima apparitions, there were other revelations given by Our Lady. Before Jacinta died, she told of other messages given her [during her illness] by Mary:

    "Tell them to ask grace from her, and that the Heart of Jesus wishes to be venerated together with the Immaculate Heart of Mary…"⁴⁷

    This last message offers us an excellent opportunity to summarize the Fatima message. It tells us "that the Heart of Jesus wishes to be venerated together with the Immaculate Heart of Mary."⁴⁸

    Deep spiritual maturity cannot be achieved without going through the heart of Mary. Jesus came into the world in Mary's womb.

    This is the Father's will: for His Son to come into this world, for His Son to be formed in her womb. God wants us to be formed more and more into the image and likeness of Jesus in the spiritual womb of Mary. Jesus wants us to grow in Mary's heart through the Holy Spirit to deepest maturity.

    Many, in their willfulness and pride, deny the Mother of God, her Immaculate Conception, and the virgin birth. It is pride, for they do not want to recognize how much God loves Mary. They are proud and/or ignorant and will not recognize another creature higher than they are.

    This is how it is: the Child Jesus, God-made-Man, was conceived in the womb of Mary. He was formed in her womb. To reach higher levels of spiritual maturity, we must dwell in the heart of Mary. We are formed there through the power of the Holy Spirit to be more like Jesus. We achieve depth in our relationship with God through Mary.

    "And Mary said: 'My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord" (Lk. 1:46) All of us children unite in the heart of Mary. I see such oneness between all of us as we join in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. We unite in the heart of Mary. She places us in the Heart of Jesus. There we are united with all Mary's children. He is the Light of the World. His Heart burns - a yellow glow with hot embers. Many are the children of the light. Mary is our Mother. She is calling us to be children of the light. She is Our Lady of Light.

    It starts with you and me and with all His holy priests. As we consecrate our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we are one in Their Hearts. I give Jesus and Mary my heart, you give them your heart, we are one in Their Hearts. As the Shepherds of Christ Movement spreads throughout the world, we become one with each other as we give our hearts to Jesus and Mary. There will be one flock and one Shepherd. Father Carter is reaching the priests with the consecration in the priestly newsletter. He is reaching the sisters and religious with the consecration in the religious newsletter. He is reaching the lay people with the Shepherds of Christ Associates prayer chapters for adults and youth centered in consecration of our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Notes:
    In February of 1996, we began a new movement, Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. In it people volunteer two hours a week in front of the Blessed Sacrament and pray for the renewal of the Church and the world. They consecrate their hearts bi-weekly in front of the tabernacle. We are all joined together to help bring the light to others. This is the center, Jesus in the Eucharist. It is for the renewal of the Church and the world.

    Mary is now Our Lady of Sorrows. Her heart was pierced with the willfulness of her children. Her heart is in great sorrow at the loss of her children. She calls us to spread the light to this world, to light up the darkness, to come and be fed by the Chief Shepherd.

    The devil has waged a war against the children of the light. Children of the light are richly fed with God's love, given abundantly by Jesus in the Eucharist.

    This is the plan of Fatima to reach the world. Hearts must be consecrated to the two Hearts. Fr. Carter is reaching the world in the newsletter for priests, religious, and the associates. All are consecrating their hearts. The children must be reached through the Junior Shepherds of Christ Movement. Children need to consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. The first Saturday devotion must be observed and spread from the Center.

    The Fatima messages say, that the peace or war in our country depends on our consecrating our hearts to Mary. Children must be reached with the consecration. Satan is so strong.

    The Father's plan will unfold. We must live according to the will of God with love. Every one of us is given such talents. God carries out the work of redemption through our humanity. We must pray to the Holy Spirit to sanctify us and make us holy.

    This is what I suffered under the cross: the sufferings for the little, lost children. Mary wants us to make reparation to her heart. Mary told Jacinta, "Tell them to ask grace from her, and that the Heart of Jesus wishes to be venerated together with the Immaculate Heart of Mary."⁴⁹ By recognizing her Immaculate Conception, we are recognizing the great dignity and honor He has given to Mary, a human person.

    We go to the spiritual womb, the heart of Mary, because He wills it so. The depth of our union with Him can only come about through a deeper union with her. He wills it so.

    The Father chose Mary as the Mother of God. The Father chose her, from all woman, to be Jesus' Mother. She is espoused to the Holy Spirit. Such dignity that God unites to her to bring forth a Son! If God comes to us in Mary's womb, we can go to God in Mary's heart.

    In realizing the immense love God has for Mary, we can realize more His immense love for us in the Eucharist, to unite with us in such union. She carried Jesus in her womb. He is no less present in us when we receive Him in Communion.

    Her soul magnifies the Lord. We see how our soul is raised to such heights through His grace. We, human persons, are raised to such heights in His grace. We are created to know, love, and serve Him. We can't leave out service. For, "…he has looked upon the humiliation of his servant. Yes, from now onwards all generations will call me blessed, for the Almighty has done great things for me. Holy is his name." (Lk. 1:48-49)

    Father Carter talked about spiritual childhood: the more we become like a little child, the more the Father gives Himself to us.

December 5, 1996

December 5, 1996 repeat from the beginning of today's message, this is repeated

Excerpt from December 1, 1999 message about December 5, 1996

Messenger: After she appeared for almost 2 1/2 years on the 5ths, on the 2 1/2 year anniversary Christ appeared at the point of death, His mouth open and moving. His jaw kept moving.

I was horrified as I saw Him. I cried and could hardly stand it.

What was so awful was here was my Jesus at the point of death on the cross. He looked as if He could do nothing because of His condition and His mouth kept going up and down, and no words came out.

At the traditional rosary (I had done them now for 2 1/2 years of 5ths) that evening at 6:30 with all the Shepherds of Christ people there, He said He moved His mouth because no one was listening.

This was December 5, 1996, after all those visits of Mary on the 5ths when very few came and listened.

Excerpt from December 2, 1999 message about December 5, 1996

Messenger: From the rosary December 5, 1996, 12 days before Mary appeared on the building in Clearwater, Florida.

Jesus appeared dying on the cross earlier in the day, His mouth moving, but I heard no words.

At 6:30 that evening He gave these messages during the gathering Mary called for the 5^th of the month.
  

Messages from the December 5, 1996 Rosary

Jesus speaks: I am alive, I am alive, I am alive. My beloved ones, I show you My face. Do you see the Body of a Man? Do you see Me alive on the cross? I am speaking to you but the world does not hear. They do not hear the message that I deliver to them. You must pray fervently. You must come to Me that I can be one in you and that I can operate through you as you go into the world this day. I love you. I love you with the most tender love. I am Jesus. I am alive. You are My main soldiers that I will send into the world to lead the strayed ones to My Heart.

Jesus speaks: The days ahead will be dark days. You must come to My Heart and take shelter in My Heart. It is there that you will be rooted on a firm rock, for My Heart is your home. You will not know the terrors of the night if you stay rooted in My Heart.

Jesus speaks: Division is blackness in the heart. You must not be divided from anyone. You must remain in union with all men. You must see yourselves as part of the Father's family. Each one of you is so important to the Father's plan.

Jesus speaks: And you, My beloved ones, will lead this light across the earth as you are joined in one mind and one heart in this Movement, especially in this prayer group. You are My core leaders to send the messages of My love to the world. There will be unity. There will be one flock and one Shepherd and you will lead this light across the earth to the far corners of the earth. But you must have this vision within you. You must know that I am speaking to you. You must not doubt and give in to any confusion of Satan to divide you or make you doubt. You must believe that you are a part of this vision to send My light, My unity across this earth.

Jesus speaks: You are deaf and you are dumb for you do not hear the words that I speak, My beloved world. You have clogged your ears and you've turned your heads the other way. And your children are murdered in the streets and within the wombs of their mothers. I am Jesus. I speak and no one hears.

Jesus speaks: There is human life from the first moment of conception and no man has the right to take the life that the Father has placed within a child.

Jesus speaks: Your feeble minds cannot comprehend My ways, but I have imparted to you, My chosen ones, insights into My divine mysteries. Open your hearts and I will fill you with My divine love.

Jesus speaks: You are so limited in your vision that you do not realize that I truly speak to you. You want signs and you want wonders, but you know in your hearts when you read the word of God how alive I truly am in those words. For I have given to you My life and I have shared insight into the mysteries of this life in these rosaries. You must thank the great God above for the great gifts that I am giving to you. I have given to you these gifts because of My immense love for you, My chosen ones. I give to you great gifts, for I am expecting great things of you. I give, but you must give to Me.

Jesus speaks: I come to you and I give you My love. I give you great gifts and I am rejected. I am treated indifferently and hated. I give to you Myself in the Eucharist. I am longing and I am thirsting for you to come and to look at Me and to tell Me how you love Me. I want to hear the love from your mouth. I want you to tell Me how much you love Me. So few souls come to Me and give Me their heartfelt love. You must pray that you will love Me more and more. I am longing for you. I am a Person. I want to be loved. I came onto this earth a little baby. I am Love. I want to be loved by you. Nothing will fill your soul but My love. The world has led so many astray. They do not even come to Me and talk to Me and tell Me of their love. Will you come to Me? Will you give Me love? I want you to love Me.

Jesus speaks: I am alive, I am alive, I am alive and I am treated as a dead object. Will you go into this world and tell the world that I am alive and I am longing for their love? I give to you, My beloved ones, My undying love.

Jesus speaks: You are My soldiers of love. I am asking you to look at My face, to see My face. You have a Father that loves you. You must live your lives always trying to please Him. You must not be divided in any way from any of your brothers. You must not give in to the temptations of Satan to fill your hearts with any bitterness or anger, for it will divide you from Me.

Jesus speaks: I am pleading with you to love. I spread My arms and I gave My all on the cross. I am asking you to love this much that you would lay your lives down for each other, that you will spread your arms and that you will love one another. I am guarding you. In your every breath, I am with you. You must read the Blue Book messages every day. Read at least one message a day and listen to these rosaries, for Satan will press on you and try to get you to quit. You must not give in to him. You must go to the tabernacle and spend time alone with Me every day. If you cannot go to the tabernacle, go to your room and spend quiet moments with Me. Go to daily Mass and Communion and pray the rosary. I am calling you to this immense mission. You do not know the immensity of your calling. I have called you by name. I beg you to listen to Me. Do you hear My voice? Do you see My mouth move? So many do not hear, for they do their own wills. I will speak through you and I will spread My messages of love to this world as you spread My Blue Books to the world. These are My messages of love. You must not be afraid. Think of the souls of 18 year olds that are black in sin. The children are the sickest of all, for parents are teaching the children sick lessons. This is serious. Are you serious? Will you help Me spread My message of love to this world? If you do not speak, who will speak My words to the world? I am asking you to carry the messages in the Blue Books and the rosaries to the world. This is My mighty medicine to heal the wounds on the wounded hearts. I will heal their wounds with My love. I have written the messages of My love on your hearts. This has always been part of the Father's plan that you were here this day. This is your calling, to help bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart and the Triumph of My Mother's Heart. I have given to you these messages. You are My messengers. Will you spread these messages to the world? You must live by these messages yourselves. I am alive and I live in you. I am calling, My beloved ones. How will you answer Me?

Song: I Have Called You By Name

Jesus speaks: I am alive, I am alive, I am alive. You are My apostles. I have called each of you by name. Each one of you is so important to My Heart.

December 4, 2001 message

Messenger:    I received messages from Jesus December 5, 1997

                           that expressed His desire for

                            Emily to be a handmaid and have

                            a major role in the movement.

                            Jesus said if Emily desires.

                        She was already living at the Morrow Center

                            since early December, 1996.

December 5, 1998

Excerpt from the December 5, 1998 message

Jesus speaks: I appeared on the cross at the point of death December 5, 1996. I appear today in the hearts of men filled with light and longing to spread My light to the darkened world.

I am the Son of Justice, I am Jesus Christ. I am God, come to save a thankless race.

Oh how I wish you were either hot or cold, but you are lukewarm and I spit you from My mouth.

I want hearts that are deeply connected in their faith, that will live for Me and Me alone.

You will not commit--you are wishy-washy, whereas I want commitment and fervor.

Oh you will not decide, truly in your hearts, to give yourselves completely to God, that is your problem.

From the highest mountain will come the streams of life-giving water as priests consecrate their hearts to Our pure and holy Hearts and offer sacrifice.

The Mass is the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present.

December 5, 1999

Excerpt from December 5, 1999

Messenger:  Yesterday, First Saturday, after the 6:20 prayers, our Lady appeared to me in all her glory and beauty. I did not feel as I wanted to, for within me is this anxiety of wanting this fullness of life that we will have in eternity. At Mass this morning, as they read the readings for the second week of Advent, my whole being was embraced with the presence of God, and the beauty of that vision of Mary yesterday filled my soul as He found favor with my soul and allowed me to exist so intimately in Him....

Messenger:  He said He is crying bloody tears for the souls that are being lost.

    The Father sends His heavenly Mother into this world and she begs and she pleads that we do something to help her children to be led back to the Heart of her Son, for many are truly on the way to hell for all eternity. Can we not help our heavenly Mother who has contacted us?

    For nine months Mary said how important it is to spread the consecration to the schools to the children, to tell children to say daily and all through the day, "I love You, Jesus. I love you, Mary." and she will take care of their hearts.

    The children are the sickest ones, for they are being trained by parents that are sick themselves. We must reach the children in the schools with the rosary and with the consecration. As the light steals across the sky, the light of the Almighty God, His love will illuminate the dark night. Hearts will be consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and the Father will look to the earth and the once-dark-covered earth will now be covered with hearts that are hearts of light and love. This is the city of light as we spread His messages of love to the world. The wounded hearts will be healed, for love heals the wounded hearts.
