Jesus' Heart Has No Bounds

R. Jesus' Heart is without bounds. Jesus is one with the Father. Once I am in Jesus' Heart, it is an endless cavern, I am one with the Father.

    Mary is one with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit – She is the singular vessel. The Holy Spirit is the Spouse of Mary. We cannot fathom the pure love of Mary and the Holy Spirit. We cannot ever realize the love of God, but to ponder it, helps us realize how God loves us. God is love.

Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

... In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.

    The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.

    At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ.

 

R. Mary conceived Jesus in her womb by the power of the Holy Spirit. It is in Mary's heart the Holy Spirit works in the fire of God's love to make us more like Jesus.

    I see myself enclosed in red, with glowing embers. I know the action of the Holy Spirit, the flow of God's love permeating my whole being. I am enclosed in the heart of Mary. The Holy Spirit has filled her heart. The element of love knows no bounds - love is unbounded. So, to exist in Mary's heart is a presence for me of red in a space of love, it is unbounded. The Holy Spirit wants to make me holy. I must let go and be docile to His touch, open, yielding. The Holy Spirit fills my being with God's love. I exist in God, wrapped in His embrace.

    I go to the red cavern of love of the Two Hearts, I want to be wrapped in God's embrace – I exist IN HIM!! Presence and Love, existing IN HIM. There is an endless depth, there are no bounds on its length, without limits. In uniting in this immense presence, I am united to the presence of the Father. This is all spontaneous – the presence is the presence of God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I am one in God. I know and love the Persons of the Trinity.

    My desire is to penetrate deeper and deeper into this endless abyss of God's burning love. It is an endless thirst, knowing there is more and wanting more and more and more, knowing God's presence. Sometimes my heart begs and begs and thirsts for more; sometimes I am overwhelmed with the love and feel such satisfaction. On December 15th I knew the presence and united in such a way I was so happy. I was caught up in Him in such a way. I was overwhelmed with His presence.

Song: Your Presence Pervades My Soul

Jesus Points to His Heart

R. I see His hands pointing to His Heart. His Heart was pierced with wounds, His hands were pierced and His Heart, lanced – and He shows us His Heart was a human Heart. He took a human Heart. It was filled with Divine Love. Jesus was conceived in Mary's womb through the power of the Holy Spirit, intimate love, love beyond our knowledge or capability of knowing. These are the Hearts of deepest love – His human Heart filled with Divine Love.

    It is in uniting to these Two Hearts that our hearts will reach a high level of love. Their Hearts are the most perfect - the more we unite to Their Hearts, in the Holy Spirit, the more we know love. There is a whole world that is dying in their hearts – that needs more than surface love – that needs deep love.

    Words: so much of our love of God is words – He wants our all. Jesus gave Himself – this is the love Jesus has for us. Jesus wants us to give ourselves.

    The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass can be such intimate love. God gives us Himself. Jesus gives Himself! I give myself to the Father in the Holy Spirit.

A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

    Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.

    I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.

    Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.

    Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.

    Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.

    Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.

-Mass Book, December 27, 1995

R. The whole world is hungry – vile deeds will continue until the messages of His burning love are circulated. Hearts are dying, focusing outside their hearts, focusing on the world. Let's go to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary – So much LOVE!! The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present.

    Man's intimate love affair with God. Jesus is a Person. We unite with Him in deepest intimacy in the Holy Eucharist.

    I am alive, I am alive, I am alive, Jesus cries. Jesus cries: "I give you My Body, I give you My Blood, I want to feed you. I live in the Hearts of Men!"

    If I could reach beyond myself and be wrapped in the embrace of Your love – Your love given for me. My heart is so hungry to unite deeper to Him. My soul thirsts for Thee, Oh adorable Lord.

    I feel such pain for the offenses against God. He who is all worthy of all our love and such pain for the loss of so many souls.

 

January 5, 1996 - First Friday

R. Love is love. It is not sterile, dry and inactive – it is active. It is in our hearts. It is burning. It is longing. It is hurting and joy in your heart.

    I love the priest at the Consecration of the Mass, for it is then that I see him most united to Jesus. He says, "this is My Body, this is My Blood." The Father looks to the earth – He sees Jesus so one in the priest – at this moment, the priest united to Jesus in the sacrifice to the Father. I am so one in this moment. I am one with Jesus in the Holy Spirit - giving myself to the Father. I am so intently wrapped in this moment at the Consecration of the Mass, I long for the priest with his whole heart, his whole soul and his whole being to hold Jesus high and reverently, that I might linger in this moment, that I might adore Him in this moment.

    I die to myself and that which is not of Him. I want to be one in Him as a holy sacrifice and offer myself to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, united to Jesus. I pray for holiness. It is Through Him, With Him and In Him. I offer myself as a sacrifice to the Father. Jesus gives to me His Body and Blood in the Holy Eucharist. Jesus gives to me Himself: Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. This is the Bread of Life, the true bread come down from heaven. I want to die to my selfish ways that I may live more and more in Him.

    I am one in Him. I exist in Him. I am living in Him. As I walk, I walk in Him, I breathe in Him, I am in Him.

 

January 7, 1996 - Epiphany

Cana and the Consecration

R. I was so aware of His little hands and the nails in His hands, as if I could put my finger through the holes in His hands. I was so aware of His hands on the cross, the nails tearing and pulling His hands.

    Jesus: Priest, Prophet, King. I went to a baptism: The words in the Baptism were so beautiful. What a gift - in baptism we receive a sharing in His life. We are commissioned to go out as a child of God and spread the good news. WOW!!

    I am so aware of the Child Jesus. Jesus, the Divine Almighty God.  

  

R. God the Father sent His Son, Jesus for love of us. Jesus suffered! Why do we worry? God is with us. God is the light that shines and guides our way! We must turn our lives over to the Father – Live His Plan.

    We unite with Jesus in the Mass. We are members of the Body of Christ. I give my all to Him – cried wanting to give to Him my all and love Him so much, wanting to talk about the Mass, the Eucharist, this great gift! Jesus' first miracle was changing water into wine. I heard Him, in the Mass, say that this is so great a gift at every Mass where wine is changed into His Blood. We would be so happy to have witnessed water being changed into wine at Cana.

Mary was present and she was at the wedding feast of Cana and water was changed into wine. At Mass know Mary is there, at Mass and see the bread and wine changed into the Body and Blood of Jesus.

    When Jesus was on earth, the blood dripped from the wound pierced in His hand. The nails that went all the way through. Oh Jesus! I love You. Thanks!

    I love Him so much. I want to unite to Him so deeply. I have a constant vision of the red cavern of Jesus' Heart and with it is union with Mary's heart and the Holy Spirit and the Father. The wind may blow, I may be slaughtered, but I am one in Him!

Song: I Am Your Sacred Heart

R. The Mass is healing. I unite to Him and die to that which is not like Him and beg to be given a greater likeness to Him. In the Eucharist when He comes to me, I am so one in Him.

    I see the priest as Christ in the Mass and long for his intense realization of this gift, that the priest knows oneness with Jesus and the priest must celebrate the Mass with this realization. The priest, being so one with Jesus offering the Mass to the Father. The Father sees Christ uniting with the priest. The Father sees this! The Mass is indeed the Most Glorious Event!

    Jesus was covered with blood - death came - Jesus rose gloriously from the dead.

    I keep seeing the priest raise Jesus high at Mass. It makes me want to cry. That glorious moment in the Mass. Knowing the priest is one in Jesus. I see Jesus celebrate the Mass in the priest.

 

January 8, 1996 - 2:00am

R. I can focus on one pain. His pain was accumulative - all at once. I was awaken at 2:00am, with increased pain in my hands and feet. I stood up and got pain in both hands and feet – I could hardly take it, pain was so intense. He loves me with perfect unselfish love.

 

January 8, 1996 - 12:45pm

R. I went to Immaculata. The snow was so bad and the road to the church was blocked. I parked and walked to the church, knowing I could only stay a short while for my car was not parked in a legal spot. I went in and was overwhelmed with the presence of God. I kept seeing the statue of the Sacred Heart in the front of the church glow and look so beautiful and alive. I saw Jesus transfigured before me. I cried all the way to Mass, after this, at Fr. Carter's. I was so strongly connected to all Three Persons and realizing Their presence. It had penetrated my every cell and I felt Them in my every moment. I could see with eyes unveiled as I drove along. My car would go without any problems. Others looked perplexed, burdened, troubled and anxious. It was so apparent to me, being engulfed in this immense presence, how, if we see with His eyes, if we are one in Him, we have nothing to fear!

    Jesus looks down from above and says, "fear not, My little ones, I am with you when the sun ceases to shine and the moon is darkened and not shedding its light. I am the Light. I am what you seek. I am Mighty and ever vigilant for all your needs."

    This morning I was so aware of my espousal to Him. I was so aware of how He truly cares about all the thoughts I think and every detail of my life. Jesus cares for me as the most devoted spouse except so much more. I hug His crucifix and I love Him so much. I am espoused to You, God, and I love You with all my heart. Thanks for everything, even my toe nails that I do not understand. Thanks for every knuckle and cell in my body. Thank You for the beautiful snow and the new born baby. Thank You for allowing me to live Your life in my life and partake in the mystery of God's love.

 

January 9, 1996

R. Today I prayed at All Saints, then left to attend a funeral and thought of going to Holy Cross-Immaculata and I prayed I would get in and pray. I am so close to God there. I went in and the statue was all aglow and around it is glistened in the deepest iridescent light and Jesus was transfigured before me.

    I was engulfed again in my love of God and cried so hard because I love Him so much. In this intimate act of giving myself totally to Him, my whole act was in emptying myself, wanting only to be lost in Him and united forever to Him in this most blissful moment. I turned myself over and was lost in Him, knowing His presence with me and knowing His deep love. The world stopped and I existed in Him, longing to forever stay there, so this moment would never end.

    I touched you, God and in this embrace I knew your unending love. I saw Your Body as if it was transfigured and glowing in light and I was lost in Thee.

    Love is giving. I am dependent on God for my love. I interact with others but I cannot and do not want to expect things in return.

    I love to be loving. Jesus loved all men with the deepest love. I, too, must love all with this love and see Christ in them. The love I have for others comes from the deep and burning love for God.

    To look at the world and to see with eyes unveiled - this is a great grace. To see the presence of God within each person and to love the Christ in them.

    The incarnation goes on in us. We are transformed more and more into the image and likeness of Jesus. We can be evocative and bring out the uniqueness in others and see them as God's special creation – to see with eyes unveiled, to see Christ in others.

    Priests may have a non-emotional relationship with Him. The First Friday and First Saturday devotions seem to be treated so lightly. The importance of the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart is not their focus as Jesus wants. Unless a sufficient number of people consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary we won't have peace in the world.

    What do priests talk about?

    People - need to consecrate their hearts to Jesus and Mary.

    What about Mary's message of Fatima?
    1) Consecrating hearts
    2) First Saturday
    3) Rosary
    4) Conversion

World War II started - who listened to Mary's plea?

    Mary is holding back the hand of God – Mary said this about 4 weeks ago. Mary said just a couple of weeks ago that she will be there in the rosary - not talking too much longer - but who is paying attention? She calls about the children - I am one person:
    1) consecrating their hearts - spread to all!!
    2) First Saturdays
    3) Praying the rosary

    Parents should tell their children all about what Mary said!
    Schools should tell the children about what Mary said and the rosary, but
        who is telling them about the love of God - the most important thing?
    Where are the youth seen praying?
    Is the modeling there?

Message for Shepherds of Christ Members from Mary

Mary: My beloved Shepherds of Christ Members, I am Mary your Mother. Very soon I will end my messages to this world. I have chosen you as my special messengers to reach the children of the world. The children need to see other children praying.

R. We are teaching our children in our homes about everything and so little about God. We share all the mechanics of the computer and television, telephones, everything that is so complicated. The children are taught such incidental information and are often not taught about the love of God.

    Do we share with our children our most intimate experiences with Jesus? We have spent our whole lives growing in our spiritual life but we keep much of this most valuable information to ourselves.

Mary: I am Mary, Your Mother. You are the parents of America. Teach your children about God. Teach them to pray the rosary. Teach them to consecrate their hearts to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I am calling out to my parents in the Shepherds of Christ Movement to reach your children with the love of God. I am asking you to encourage your children to join the Junior Shepherds of Christ movement and begin to pray the prayers of Consecration in your homes every day as a family. There will be peace in your homes and in your hearts when you consecrate your homes and your hearts to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

    Children need to pray the rosary and be taught about our lives. How can a child model their life after our lives when they do not know about our lives? I am asking you to help man the forces and have my little army of children ready and marching on this earth. The weapon is their rosary, to help fight off Satan. Their hearts consecrated to our Hearts will lead them steadfastly ahead into the darkness that has clouded the youth in this country.

    Children need to pray. Children are given such bad examples. Children do not see other children praying and loving God. I am asking you parents in America to encourage your children to join the Junior Shepherds of Christ Movement.

    When children's hearts are consecrated to our Hearts they will fill this world with the light of God's love. Contact the children, the priests and religious and you will help save this world.

    The mighty medicine for this world is the burning love of my Son, Jesus. Will you help me contact the children and tell them how His Heart burns for love of them.

The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

R. The Mass is a sacrifice. I give myself in the act of total surrender to the Father. The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present. The celebrant, the priest, is to be so one with Christ. The priest putting on Christ so one in offering himself to the Father. This sacrifice is so pleasing to the Father.

Jesus: Unite in this Holy Sacrifice, My chosen ones. All through the day unite all your chores as a holy offering in union with the Holy Sacrifice being offered throughout the world, to the Father. Every action you perform is magnified in this holy offering. Love is sacrifice. You give in this offering your greatest act of love when you give Him yourself. Live in this total surrender, yielding to the Father, living in His Will and you will give the greatest act of love to Him and to all.

    I gave My life for you. You give your life to the Father, united in this Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. I call you to love God and love one another. In this sacrifice you surrender yourself and offer yourself to God. This is the greatest act of love you can give to each other, to live in the Father's will.

    Be not prideful, selfish, blind or dumb. Be as I have taught you. To My death on the cross I complied to the Father's will.

    This is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present. Unite yourselves to this at all times.

    I am giving to you great graces to grow deeper in your union with Me. The Holy Spirit gives to you a sharing in these insights into these mysteries, into knowing about sharing in our life in baptism. Open your hearts and pray to receive these graces and to grow more and more in your knowledge, love and serve of God.

    Come to My altar and celebrate the mystery of God's love. You come to the altar as you are and you ask for forgiveness for all of your offenses, with a humble and contrite heart you ask for mercy from the Almighty God for your sins.

    In this celebration you come to praise, give thanks, petition and offer yourselves in greatest love to the Almighty God.

    The word of God is read, every word so special, to feed you in your life. Each word fills you with the greatest love of God. You sing praises to Him who is all worthy of all of your love.

 

Matthew 5: 3-10

How blessed are the poor in spirit:
the kingdom of Heaven is theirs.
Blessed are the gentle:
they shall have the earth as inheritance.
Blessed are those who mourn:
they shall be comforted.
Blessed are those
   who hunger and thirst for uprightness:
they shall have their fill.
Blessed are the merciful:
they shall have mercy shown them.
Blessed are the pure in heart:
they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers:
they shall be recognised
   as children of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted
   in the cause of uprightness:
the kingdom of Heaven is theirs.

                R. Dottie's Funeral.

                She lived 93 years.

                We are here to deal with the fact Dottie
                    is gone –
                    93 years

                Our true citizenship is in heaven.

                We are here to pray for Dottie today that Dottie is
                    ready to enter into eternal life.

                Will we have 93 years? Are we doing God's will, seeking
                    God's mercy? Dottie wanted ashes on Ash Wednesday
                    at Hospice.

                She said - it's not to bad, I have good kids, she loved
                    her kids. We are connected to her –

                Dottie is still connected – God created us and wants
                    us to go to heaven – We are praying for Dottie
                    even though she won't be here on holidays
                    and birthdays – we will be connected to Dottie
                    and we pray for her here –

                May we prepare ourselves for our heavenly reward –
                    For God created us and wants us to go to heaven –

                May Dorothy be committed to the company of angels –
                May we be faithful and united in prayer with each
                    other –

                Dorothy we love you!!

                Let us pray and see that our lives are to be lived
                    serving God and He loves us so much.

                Song: Be Not Afraid –

                Oh God, we love You, thank You for this Mass to celebrate
                    Dottie's life –
                    Let our lives be a blessing to all we touch –
                    Let us realize the gift of God's love and our talents –

                Jesus: Spread these Blue Books - They are letters of
                    My love – People are in need of this Mighty Medicine –
                    I love you with a burning Heart of love and I am
                    with you, now. I want to help you. Come to Me and I
                    will refresh you. I give you Myself in the Mass –

                R. Oh God be near to us -

                Sing: You are Near

                R. We praise You God, we love You. Help us God to be holy
                    and do things in Your timing –

               

Ecclesiastes 3: 1-11

There is a season for everything, a time for every occupation under heaven: 

A time for giving birth, 
a time for dying; 
a time for planting, 
a time for uprooting what has been planted. 
A time for killing, 
a time for healing; 
a time for knocking down, 
a time for building. 
A time for tears, 
a time for laughter; 
a time for mourning, 
a time for dancing. 
A time for throwing stones away, 
a time for gathering them; 
a time for embracing, 
a time to refrain from embracing. 
A time for searching, 
a time for losing; 
a time for keeping, 
a time for discarding. 
A time for tearing, 
a time for sewing; 
a time for keeping silent, 
a time for speaking. 
A time for loving, 
a time for hating; 
a time for war, 
a time for peace. 

    What do people gain from the efforts they make? I contemplate the task that God gives humanity to labour at. All that he does is apt for its time; but although he has given us an awareness of the passage of time, we can grasp neither the beginning nor the end of what God does.

    

                Jesus: "I give you Myself" "What more do you want?"
                I give you My Body, I give you My Blood–
                This is My gift to you - It is the gift of Myself –

                R. The Mass the sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present.
                Oh Father - I love You, I give You myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit,
                    through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater, with all the
                    angels and saints and the souls in purgatory –

                Oh God wipe away the tears from our eyes. Help us to
                    know Your love and mercy –

                Say Our Father

Our Father

    Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
 

                Sing: Let There Be Peace on Earth 

Lamb of God

Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, Who takes away the sins of the world, grant us peace.

 

Spiritual Communion

                        Dear Jesus – we want to make a spiritual
                        communion, we cannot receive You
                        now, but we want to know Your
                        presence deep in our heart –
                        deep in our soul – Oh God fill us
                        with Your presence that we can
                        just focus on You and Your love
                        for us now – Love deep in us –
                        Oneness with You –
                        Quiet surrender to be alone in
                        this moment with You in our heart
                        in deep love –
                        We love You so much our beloved
                        God –

   

                Sing: In This Very Room

                Jesus: I love you, so much.
                    I love you, I love you, I love you –

                Sing: Ave Maria –

                Mary: My Son Jesus loves you so much –
                    Live to be pure - to be a handmaid
                    a servant of the Lord –
                    Why do anything if it is done in anger and
                        bitterness –
                    Do you not fear God?
                    You are to have a pure heart.
                    Never use your religion for personal gain –
                        pride, power, anger, envy, jealousy –
                    Be pure in heart –
                    I am the Immaculate Heart –
                    I am your Mother –
                    Eve was not pure –
                    I am the New Eve –
                    Do not offend Jesus who is so good to you
                        and blesses you so much –
                    Live as saints –
                    The Church was built up by the
                        blood of martyrs –
                    Do not tear down what others built –
                    Jesus loves you so much –

Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle B —  The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding 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

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C — In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. 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

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B — At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. 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

$ 10.00  plus postage

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #1 - CD. - Christ is Our Strength - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our-selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #2 - CD. - Suffering: A Source of Life - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. Fr. Carter knew suffering that year. His voice is so powerful as he read each Newsletter from his heart and soul. "Every man has his own share in the redemption. Each one is also called to share in that suffering through which the redemption was accomplished. He is called to share in that suffering through which all human suffering has also been redeemed. In bringing about the redemption through suffering, Christ has also raised human suffering to the level of the redemption. Thus each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ..." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
