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

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

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

Messenger: WE URGENTLY NEED FUNDS TO PUT OUT THE NEXT NEWSLETTER, PRAY FOR THIS AND FOR THE NEWSLETTER AND ALL INVOLVED.

Messenger: Please pray for Tom and students going on retreat and those involved in retreats for youth.

Messenger:  My dear beloved,

    Father Carter is not dead, he lives.

    Our whole life is to be spent in learning how to mature in love.

    For all eternity we will love God and others if we serve God and love Him and do His will here below.

    This place here below is a place for us to learn to love, that is why the greatest Commandment is: 

‘You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets too.’ (Matthew 22:  37-40)

                    Messenger: The body rots in the grave. The wealth you cannot take with you.

    My mother died when she was 48.

    How old were you when your mom or dad or grandma or grandpa died?

    They came, they lived, they passed on.

    Life is so short.

    But we live some place else for all eternity. It depends on how we loved here where we go and how deep our love union will be with God and others.

    Jesus teaches us in the death, there is the resurrection.

    We come into this life naked. We leave this earth naked.

    We cannot even take with us our custom-made shoes.

    Every tube of toothpaste is left behind.

    The feet and teeth that we care about are usually buried in the ground.

Jesus speaks: And I say unto you, many of the things that you hold on to will be left behind and what matters is how you loved. You can never live the moments of this day again.

    When you go to bed tonight, they are gone forever.

    Can you not see the message I give in My creation?

    A little sore, a big blockage, and your days are ended.

    Look at the flowers that sprout forth and grow to such beauty.

    Do they not wither and fade and are laid to rest?

    How is the grass that is once green and beautiful and brown many times in those long winter months?

    You come and you die.

    It is the cycle of life here on this earth.

    But to man, I give a soul and he can live with Me forever in eternal happiness.

    So much depends on how you loved.

    It is a maturity process. I give you a life-time to grow in your ways of loving.

    I put people in your path this day.

    And you will see a day and you will know how unloving you were many times.

    Will it be too late?

    The moments of your lives tick away like a little clock that is wound once, for your life here is so temporary.

    Tick, tick, tick, sunrise, sunset, and the days are soon ended.

    What will you take with you when that last day comes?

    The seeds you plant, the seeds of love, move on in the hearts that are left behind.

    A good tree usually does not produce bad fruit.

February 1, 2001 - Second Message

Messenger:  Father Carter wrote the last 33 years of the 2nd Millennium from 1967 to his death. His funeral was December 22nd, 2000.

He wrote 33 newsletters. Father Carter's birth year was 1929.

Our Lady appeared all through the twentieth century.

Jesus gave us His Movement at the end of the twentieth century.

Jesus called the 13th gatherings beginning October 13, 1996.

Jesus said that He would give messages in these thirteenth gatherings to help bring about the Reign of His Sacred Heart.

Jesus said that He would help to bring to completion the mission His Mother began at Fatima in these 13th meetings.

Father Carter firmly recognized the meetings of the 13ths which you can tell from his talk he gave February 13, 1997.

There were three thirteenth gatherings before Mary appeared on December 17, 1996.  They were October 13, 1996, November 13, 1996, and December 13, 1996.

There were three 13ths after Mary appeared, January 13, 1997; February 13, 1997; and March 13, 1997, in which Father Carter led the rosary.

Father Carter lead the rosary in all these 13th gatherings, 6 in all.

The rosary messages are available in both the Blue Rosary Book and the Apostles Manual.

Look at the first and second Millennium.

Jesus comes at the end of the second Millennium in a Jesuit priest, dedicated to the Sacred Heart and loving the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

The last 33 years of his life, the last 33 years of the second Millennium he writes 17 books to give the world writings to help to lead the souls into the Reign of the Sacred Heart.

Jesus gives us a priest and he dies at the very end of the Millennium.

On December 29, 2000, one week after his funeral, we received the loan on the Virgin Mary Building.

On December 29, 1996, 12 days after Mary appeared, I received an all-night message from Jesus. (click on)

We see that in the twentieth century Mary appeared over and over again to lead men to the two Hearts.

At the end of the century, Jesus gives us His Movement - Shepherds of Christ to lead men into the deepest love union with Him.

Messenger: Many people in the Marian Movements tried to block Jesus' Movement.

They did not understand the plan of the Father that Mary's appearances were to open the door for Jesus' Movement at the end of the century.

In Jesus' Movement, Shepherds of Christ, Jesus promised Father Carter to lead men into a deeper union in Their Hearts as we see from the 13th Promise given to Father Carter.

13th Promise

"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

The purpose of Shepherds of Christ is to help lead the souls into a deeper spousal union with God, to help bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart.

And I quote from Revelation 21:1-7.

Revelation 21: 1-7

The heavenly Jerusalem

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; the first heaven and the first earth had disappeared now, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride dressed for her husband. Then I heard a loud voice call from the throne, ‘Look, here God lives among human beings. He will make his home among them; they will be his people, and he will be their God, God–with–them. He will wipe away all tears from their eyes; there will be no more death, and no more mourning or sadness or pain. The world of the past has gone.’ 

    Then the One sitting on the throne spoke. ‘Look, I am making the whole of creation new. Write this, "What I am saying is trustworthy and will come true." Then he said to me, ‘It has already happened. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give water from the well of life free to anybody who is thirsty; anyone who proves victorious will inherit these things; and I will be his God and he will be my son.

Messenger: When Jesus came at the end of the century to lead men into a deeper love union with His Sacred Heart, many people in the Marian Movements were the ones that really persecuted us for delivering the messages Jesus gave to help renew the Church and the world and lead men into the Reign of the Sacred Heart.

The very people that were to help us through the apparitions of Mary instead became competitive and blocked the plan of the Father.

Mary appeared over and over and over again and at the end of the century, Jesus gave us His special mission to help lead souls into the depth of His Heart through the mission of Mary at Fatima.

It is Jesus they persecuted, it is His Movement they worked and still try to work against.

Jesus wanted His Blue Books and messages circulated on the Falmouth Farm. These were blocked.

When Mary appeared on the building in Clearwater, Florida they did not believe. When we were chased from the old seminary, they did not believe that Mary had appeared to me at the old seminary daily from July 5, 1994  - September 5, 1995.

The Holy Spirit Center building - March 22, 1994

Messenger: When we received the first gold picture of Mary July 5, 2000 they did not believe.

Messenger: When we began leasing the building in early July, 1998 and began the nightly prayer services July 5, 1998, they did not believe.

At the very end of the second Millennium December 29, 2000, we received the loan for the building.

At the beginning of January, January 5, 2001, Mary appeared in rainbow and gold color on the building on the evening of the 5th during the prayer service.

A priest said the Mass in Florida and delivered the rosary that night.

I did not know until 1999 that this priest was in the corner of the building at the old seminary right before it fell off.

I knew that when Jesus gave messages that He was angered in March, 1994.

For a solid month, I received strong messages every day of His displeasure.

Some of these messages are in Blue Book II.

In Blue Book II He talks about a big boom in both March 7, 1994, message and March 13, 1994, message.

The message of March 20, 1994, was so strong I cried.

Collapse on March 22, 1994

The picture shows the collapse on March 22, 1994 of a wing at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, Norwood, Ohio. Jesus warned every day from Feb. 22, 1994 to March 22, 1994 there would be a big boom.

Rita Ring: I am a messenger. The messages given to help bring about the completion of the Fatima message were blocked. This is not to indicate any person is responsible for disobeying the messages. I must deliver the messages despite any disbelief.

Messenger's Notes:
   On March 22, 1994 at 10:30 a. m. Jesus told me I would be sitting on a chair, the floor would shake under my feet and I would hear the biggest boom I ever heard.
   At Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, about 14 people were praying the rosary in the Rosary Chapel at 1:00. I had tried to deliver another message I was ignored. I wanted to cry from frustration. I looked up at the ceiling and said to Jesus, "You handle this, Jesus, it is Yours. I have done all I can do to deliver Your messages to promote devotion to the Eucharist and Your love. These are Your messages, You do something." Wanting to run and leave, I started to cry. Jesus said, "Go to the chapel and pray the rosary." I went into the Rosary Chapel and they had said the Creed and a few Hail Mary's. I sat on the chair feeling so bad inside , holding back my tears, about the 9th Hail Mary or so of the first mystery I heard the biggest boom I ever heard. It lasted about three minutes, it seemed. The floor shook under my feet as I sat on my chair and I knew it was Him. For the first time after a month of my stomach being in knots I was relieved. He acted. Everyone got up and was alarmed and I felt comforted for I thought, "Thank God, now they will believe." We went out of the chapel and I looked down the hall and saw the sky. The entire end wing had fallen off. We ran from the building and outside there was a hole, in the earth surrounded by bricks that looked as if they had been laid neatly around the hole. The cloud of dust in the hole was sky high.

March 7, 1994
I remembered the message I received from Jesus March 7, 1994. This is recorded in God's Blue Book Vol. II (p. 147-149) I delivered it and my stomach was scared from the words of Jesus.
Jesus speaks: "Busy yourself for your day is at hand and you will know My might! I will shake the earth and you will listen Then you will listen, but where were you when I gave you forewarning? You are waiting for the big boom. I am calling you now to listen to Me here....Time is so short. One moment and it is up in smoke....What do I do to shake you? I, in My might can rock you off your rockers. I try to prepare you but you are too busy. Hold on to your last piece of dust and watch it go up in your face! I am Jesus Christ, Son of God and I write to you and who pays heed here? This should tell you of your attachments to worldly things. You want proof. You look the other way. I am God and you contain the mighty medicine for this sick world. I am Jesus, the Son of God. Do you listen?"
* There are many more messages. Please call us for a free copy of Gods Blue Book, Vol. II

March 13, 1994 (10 days before the Big Boom) God's Blue Book, Vol II pg 158-160
Jesus speaks: "You must tell them how I wait for them. I wait. I want them to come and I will give them such love! Tell them, Rita, tell them! Your discontent is from what emotions I give you and you keep them inside. I want all to know Me and My love. I am crying out to you, little one. Tell them, tell them. Do not waste any time. I am crying out for you to spread this message. I want you to tell all of My love and how I am waiting. Emotion, Emotion! I am crying out to you in your heart. I long for their love. I died for them. How do I make them know if you, to whom I speak, hold back? I want you to get the messages out child.
   Ready yourself for a big boom. No one is listening. I am crying out to you. Prepare your brothers, they are in darkness....I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I am on fire for love of them. I am Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God. I call you to this state of urgency. Move your friends by this urgent letter. There is no more time to waste. I call you all here to deliver this message personally to you. I am Jesus. I am begging each of you to spread My message. Tell them of My ardent love. In each moment you waste, souls will be lost."

August 11, 1996 This is recorded in the Apostles Manual.
Jesus speaks: "I have given permanent signs of the authenticity of these messages. Time is urgent and the messages need to be supported and circulated ....
   Over and over again I have told you what would happen if you ignore the messages. I am asking you to see that each and every person involved in the Shepherds of Christ Movement read the message of March 7, 1994 and March 13, 1994. Please discern and circulate the message of March 20, 1994. 3 l hours before the end of the building collapsed ....
   I have given three permanent signs to be used to help circulate these messages which are a main source of communication for the completion of the Fatima message. Time is urgent. I am asking again that a special gathering be held on October 13, 1996 ....
   These are permanent signs I have given to prove that I am delivering these messages."

March 20, 1994 This is recorded in the Apostles Manual
before the end of the building collapsed at the Holy Spirit Center.
Jesus speaks: "Publish these messages, I want the book published (Gods Blue Book). What happened to Volume II? I, Son of God, am talking to you and who listens?...
   I am God. I am so tired with you to publish these letters. You are going to suffer for the souls will be lost while you tarry.
   I have all the power, I am God. I can turn the world upside down. I have all the power. I am tired to give you more messages. You are not publishing anything. You want to be safe..."

March 22, 1997 - 3 years later
This, the anniversary of the collapse of the building.
Jesus speaks: "The completion of the Fatima message was greatly blocked at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center and the Falmouth Farm. Because of some willful men to try to stop the plan, many souls have suffered."

March 24, 1997
Jesus speaks: "I have given to you great signs of the authenticity of these messages and how they must be obeyed. I would like a picture card of the Holy Spirit Center and the prophesies of the big boom. Include the message of Father Carter that states this is Jesus' movement for the renewal of the Church and the world. Include this statement I give to you: "The Shepherds of Christ Movement is My instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. Its primary purpose is to pray for priests. It is through this movement that the Fatima message will greatly unfold.
   The picture must bring the people to the "Mary Message" tape, the Blue Books, the Rosary Books, Tell My People and the Fatima-Medjugorje Book.
   The Mass Books and the Priestly Newsletter Books should be made available and given to priests. It is necessary to hand out the Prayer Manual books with the card I have instructed you to make."

July 11, 1997
Jesus speaks: The Holy Spirit Center is My Mother's house. A house divided against itself will fall. I am asking immediately that you circulate the picture of the collapse of the Holy Spirit Center wing.
   I ask you to circulate the card about the Holy Spirit Center as soon as possible. I will reign on My throne at My Mother's house."

JESUS WARNED OF A "BIG BOOM" ON MARCH 22, 1994

Prophesy I: March 7, 1994 from God's Blue Book II, p. 146-149

Jesus speaks: Busy yourself for your day is at hand and you will know My might! I will shake the earth and you will listen. Then you will listen, but where were you when I gave you forewarning? You are waiting for the big boom. I am calling you now to listen to Me here. Time is so short. One moment and it is up in smoke. What do I do to shake you? I, in My might can rock you off your rockers. I try to prepare you but you are too busy. Hold on to your last piece of dust and watch it go up in your face! I am Jesus Christ, Son of God and I write to you and who pays heed here?

Prophesy II: March 13, 1994 from God's Blue Book, Vol. II, p. 158-160

Jesus speaks: Ready yourself for a big boom. No one is listening. I am crying out to you....I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I call you to a state of urgency… I am begging you to spread My message.

Prophesy III: March 20, 1994 (before the collapse of the building wing:) from the Apostle's Manual

Jesus speaks: I want the book published. I have all the power. I am God. I can turn the world upside down. I have all the power.

Prophesy IV: March 22, 1994 (about 2 1/2 hours before the collapse of the building wing)

Jesus speaks: You will sit on a chair ...the floor will shake under your feet and you will hear the biggest boom you ever heard. Do not be afraid for I told you what would happen.

March 24, 1997 (3 years later)

Jesus speaks: I would like a picture card of the Holy Spirit Center and the prophesies of the Big Boom.

April 10, 1997

God the Father speaks: You must release this information. I am asking the faithful to begin prayer chapters, centered in consecration and praying the rosary…Lastly, but of importance to the renewal of the Church and the world, I am asking that the Priestly Newsletter be made available in abundance, that the apostles send these newsletters to the priests and encourage them to read them. I am asking the Priestly Newsletter Book be published as soon as possible and sent to all priests and bishops in the United States. I am the Father.

^{(End of Big Boom brochure.)}

Messenger: A priest was visiting his old abandoned room at the old seminary minutes before the corner collapsed. Before the corner fell off his beeper went off. He left the building to find a phone to return the call from the beeper. When he was questioned he said, the building collapsed 8 minutes after he left the building. To his knowledge, nobody he could find beeped him.

I knew there was a priest in the corner of the building - I did not know who it was. He had even appeared on TV talk shows.

This same priest is the one who led the rosary, under the image on January 5, 2001, when Mary turned rainbow and gold colored.

Jesus speaks: Why do you persecute Me when I have given you such gifts in My letters of love given in My Blue Books to lead men to the Eucharist?

Why do you try to stop Me, when I send you signs of Mary on the building?

The Fatima visionaries were jailed.

You have blocked My work at Falmouth.

Now you try to block Me still.

I beg you to help Me spread My prayers for the renewal of the Church and the world.

Mary appeared to lead you to Me.

Mary appeared to so many.

At the end of the century I give you My Movement — Shepherds of Christ to lead you to the depth of My Heart.

I give you gifts as I so desire.

There will be peace when men consecrate their hearts and pray the rosary.

This is the will of the Father that men do this.

It is the will of the Father you pray the prayers I give for the renewal of the Church and the world.

I have promised you the greatest graces.

Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:

"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.

"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.

"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

A rosary can be used to pray for healing. It is powerful to unite our prayers to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and pray through the powerful intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater.

In times of trouble, for special prayer, we can use our rosary and pray as follows.

A Rosary for Healing or for Someone with Cancer.

On one Hail Mary bead or as many as you desire, say: 

May God heal                     through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater in union with the Mass and all the Masses being celebrated around the world.

Pray the Hail Mary or Hail Mary's then pray this after the Hail Mary.

May the cancer be uprooted and thrown into the sea.

We believe with all our hearts.

After the Glory Be — pray the following petition.

May                     be healed through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater if it be the holy will of God.

Note: You can look at Mary on the image rosary while you pray this rosary.

Note: The above section can be printed out from a PDF file, and you can pray the rosary looking at the pictures.
