R. Satan works day and night
What matters to Satan
is power and control
We are at constant warfare
People so smart
with degrees and they
give into the devil over
and over again
Satan works to try to alter a person's
reality and they give into him
satan deceives them and the more they
give in to jealousy,
power, envy
Seeking power for power sake
the more their reality becomes altered
Satan distracts us spiritually
He keeps us busy
Satan wants you to be
so busy that you
are allured by power
But God created you
Busy, busy, busy
Excerpt from June 5, 2011 Rosary
Jesus: Settle down, for I want to take you into a place of peace, where I can touch your heart, and you will know Me more deeply than ever before in your life. But you must let go and surrender and let Me fill your heart now. Now. Now. Now. But you are busy child, even in silence, as I want to touch you and move in your heart, you are busy in your minds, and thinking so many things. Have you not learned after all these years, how to surrender? How to let go? How to come to that place, that special place, dwelling deeply in My Heart? Knowing the presence of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit within your graced, baptized soul. Oh sweet one, you are so busy about so many things, when indeed you miss some of the finest treasures.
3 Hail Marys
Jesus: And now let Me speak to you of fear. For the Apostles knew fear in the upper room. It can grip you like a cold hand, and you give into it. When I am guarding and watching you and I am with you now. So many things you allow to parade in your mind, when you can only live and do one thing at a time. Busy, busy, busy, busy, ah child. Why so busy?
Come now away with Me into My Heart. Think of nothing but the love of God, that God dwells within you child. What keeps you from Me is your busy, busy mind. After the reception of the Eucharist, I want to touch you in a deep way, at the Mass, at the consecration - I am giving to you a grace busy, busy, busy. Oh child, you will all go out of this life in the same way, when the time comes, when the Father is ready for you to leave. Surrender now. Let Me control your life. Know that the Father has a plan for you, that the Father has given to you all the talents to accomplish great things in the building of My Kingdom. But your busy-ness gets in My way.
Why so busy child, busy planning, and planning what the Father has planned, and your planning is of your own making. Busy, busy - bzzzz like the bees. Come to Me at Mass. Busy, busy, busy. Will you let go now? Are you planning the next thing? Have you planned tomorrow? How about tomorrow night? How is your schedule? Pull out your calendar or your cell phone or wherever it is that you keep your busy things. Busy, busy, busy. Can you write Me into that calendar? Can I have that little space there? Oh no that's when you wash the dog! ah-ah I should have known much better.
R. Satan wants us to sin so
we are tied up because
of the sin
justify why we are right
when we sin and
then after this he turns
around and tells you
you are a sinner
He wants to stop the work
God wants done
So you can focus on yourself
tell yourself you are right
when you are wrong
The devil is a prowling
lion
The devil wants to attack us
Attack authority
You give in by trying to be
over authority
You justify 'I am right
authority is wrong'
Arm-wrestling just authority
Altered reality
Satan comes as an angel of light,
and the person thinks, they are
doing good and continue disobeying
just authority
They think the just authority over them is wrong
So the serpent deceives and
the person gives in
Ever since Eve
The devil lies to us
The devil deceives us
The devil allures us
The devil wants to distract
us doing it our way
disobeying just authority
People, so intelligent turning
their lives over to the
devil for power and
confusion
Jesus: Addicted to excitement
The devil wants to start confusion,
combat argumentation
discrediting authority
The devil wants you to think you
should be equal to God
Intelligent men, letting satan lure them
with the shiny apple of
power, control, affections
The man rooted in God's will is the
man who is connected to God
deep inside
Satan says rise up for power over
authority
Matthew 4: 1-11
Then Jesus was led by the Spirit out into the desert to be put to the test by the devil. He fasted for forty days and forty nights, after which he was hungry, and the tester came and said to him, If you are Son of God, tell these stones to turn into loaves. But he replied, Scripture says:
Human beings live not on bread alone
but on every word
that comes from the mouth of God.The devil then took him to the holy city and set him on the parapet of the Temple. If you are Son of God, he said, throw yourself down; for scripture says:
He has given his angels orders about you,
and they will carry you in their arms
in case you trip over a stone.Jesus said to him, Scripture also says:
Do not put the Lord your God to the test.
Next, taking him to a very high mountain, the devil showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendour. And he said to him, I will give you all these, if you fall at my feet and do me homage. Then Jesus replied, Away with you, Satan! For scripture says:
The Lord your God is the one
to whom you must do homage,
him alone you must serve.Then the devil left him, and suddenly angels appeared and looked after him.
Jesus: The devil is a fallen angel
When a person does not do what they
are supposed to do they commit
sins of omission
R. We are united to each other
What I do and don't do affects others
When I disobey just authority I
am wrong
The devil tempts people to
not be accountable to just
authority so the devil
can operate the show
in disobedience, seeking
power - over just authority
sneaky the devil is
full of deception
trying to get people to give in,
distracted spiritually because
they are busy
Excerpt from June 5, 2011 Rosary
But it takes faith. It takes love. It takes wanting the purity of the hearts, so that your heart is more and more like the heart of the Blessed Virgin Mary. It takes listening to the Holy Spirit, that is not telling you, like the devil does, you did everything wrong you either did everything wrong or you did everything right. That's not truth. You did this right and this right and this right and this right, but you need to fix that one there. What you do affects others. If you look at Eve you see that what she did affected everybody after that.
This is a wake up call. It was a wake up call in these days before the feast of Pentecost to give your heart and your life to God, to quit the controlling, the plans, the prodding, all of the things that you tell yourselves, when you are busy, busy, busy, and not even leaving a little space to be alone, and to let the Holy Spirit move in your heart. To not do the examination of conscience daily, that you will know that you are praising your God, thanking your God, loving your God, checking your spiritual pulse, to see that if you are in desolation, that you are not acting in that desolation, in anger, in provoking people, in jealousies and then telling yourself when you know that the jealousy came over you, the boredom, that you went out and started a little fire. It's called letting go and wanting only God's will in your life.
R. We see Saul who disobeyed the Lord
He hurt the Jewish people
We see Esther dealing with the situation
because of Saul's disobedience
Jesus: A man in a fox hole, at war, is not arguing
with pride he is not worried about being right over
his commanding officer
He is fearing for his life
in trying not to get killed.
R. We are at war with satan and
he wants to use the guy disobeying
just authority to go against
God's will
Orders in the Church are under a
superior even when a religious
under a superior thinks he has
a better idea than his superior
he is under obedience to just
authority
A person challenging just authority
in a religious order is
disobeying the vow of
obedience he took
The devil showed Eve a shiny
apple and told her if she
ate she would be equal to
God
the devil talks in the head of
the man raising above just
authority
the devil tries to lures him with fear
and power and control
the devil tempts men with degrees
and all kinds of schooling
to give in and disobey those
over him
The devil lures him with the
apple of power and control
and being right -
Jesus: I am God
I run the universe
People are born, people die
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.
Jesus: You are at war
The devil wants us to give into the
negative thinking
After we give in enough we
have a distorted reality
God created us
Jesus is the way, the truth and
the life
We want to have right reasoning.
The Word is the truth
We are not to just know the
Word, but live the Word.
We are to guard our hearts
We are to have the right attitude
to know the truth
that our habits are good habits
Not seeking power and control for our
own vain glory
We are at war with the devil
We can have bad mental habits
We are to seek the truth
Living the word
Working on ourselves and what
is in our minds and
having love and purity in
our hearts
Guard our minds and our hearts
Live the life of resurrection
rooted in God
Guard that interior life inside us
Live to serve the Lord
Open our hearts to God
Keep our hearts closed to the devil.
The devil tempts us to think
negatively
God wants me to do what he
wants me to do because
it is God's will not giving
in like the lure of the shiny
red apple because I don't
want anyone telling me
what to do.
Giving our minds and hearts to God
Serving God
Living in His truth
Knowing that He has all the Power.
How long do we want to stay in the
desert, in negative thinking
Doing God's will keeps us connected
to His power
Opposing God's will is asking for
problems, a mud-pie in
the face
God calls us to be actors
to fill our lives with service
The devil works in boredom
Work for the Lord
Fight for the Lord
Guard that interior life, that it
is pure and rooted in Him
We need to be rooted in God,
filled with His grace to
fight the devil
God gives us the Word, the
Church and the Commandments
We have to take time to be with
Jesus, time to know the
Word, sit in front of
the tabernacle
Know how God loves us
Change our thoughts so we
say "God loves me, Jesus loves me,
the Holy Spirit counsels me."
We must pray to know God
to follow Christ to live like
Christ in the world to love
We can decide to not take
satan's shiny red apple
that says we are equal
to God.
We are to know God
is our Creator
God is all powerful and we are to
obey and to live as God wants
us to
God has a purpose for me and I
am loved
the devil is a liar he
wants to drag us down
with negative, depressing
thoughts
God loves us so much
He gives us His letters of love
in the Blue Book
I must apply what God is
saying in my life
So I believe the truth
The Blue Books tell the truth
The RIGHT REALITY
the reality as it is, as
God is
If I keep thinking negative
thoughts then my reality
becomes what I have
told myself
"altered reality"
I live a negative reality
We need to fight satan with spiritual
weapons
Go to the tabernacle
Go to Mass
Choose positive thoughts
Pray for grace
Empty our minds and hearts
of unforgiveness
and be honest about
our lives
The devil wants us to be negative,
to complain
God wants us to do His work
Jesus gave me this vision
February 24, 2012
R. The Heart of Christ beats in the
hearts of men I had a vision of a beautiful
beating heart First I saw a map
and it was of the world and I kept
hearing the word the pope the pope Seeing the connection of the whole
Catholic Church, I saw, like stations
all over the world where the churches
were united to the pope It was vast
the map of the world,But the unity was unity one
the Church, one, united under the
pope The Church, the body of Christ
one, holy, Catholic and Apostolic
And I heard the word "pope"
united with all the Churches on
the map all over the world
"pope" The map was blue and the Churches
white scattered on the map of
the earth and there was a little
red on the vision The blue was the blue of my room
at home and the white the Churches
Then a big red heart covered it all
movement as it beated
I can't even explain the heart
It covered the map
It was red and it sparkled with
light as it beat I can't even
write about it, but I can see it
now, I cannot explain it because
It is beyond words
R. The heart pretty much covered the map.
It was so big end of excerpt
February 27, 2012 continues
R. God wants us to have faith in Him
He allows sufferings in our lives
Excerpt from April 16, 1992 - Holy Thursday
Jesus: Be of a clean heart and you will not
have to cover things up love one another and
try honestly to give each their just due and there
will be nothing to hide. All evils shall be brought
to light and all goods shall be revealed
in the day of reckoning. Fight a good fight
live a good life, love, be kind and be ever
attentive to the needs of those around you
and you will be blessed with ever lasting happiness.
For I say unto you, many are called
but few are chosen, it is up to you to follow
the path of right. You can do My will or reject
My will. My will is the WAY, the TRUTH and the
life. The way to a long lived happy life and to
experience life is through the truth. The truth
in all things. Do unto others as you would want
them to do unto you. Love one another and
cherish
your precious moments you have together...
Make each moment precious, by
loving one another. God is first always
Before anything else any other order is
OUT of ORDER and does not work
any other ORDER is not God's order.
His life is simple it is not confused,
it is simple LOVE AND TRUTH
these are the jewels of each moment.
Do the will of God.
I
am your God, you shall have
no other gods before me not WEALTH,
FOOD, SEX, DRINK, I am your God
and I am first when I am first, I give you
everything necessary to live. You are working
for Me, I will work in you, I will make
your life work, you let go and know I
am your captain. I love you and I know
what you need to make you happy. I
have your best interest at heart. Trust
in Me and come to Me and make your
ways, My ways. I love you more than
any other human person could love you.
I love you with My Divine Love. I am your
God and you are My precious creation, I
made you to love Me and love My other
children, do this and I will bless you with
peace. I am your God and I love you, forever,
every moment in every trial and in every tear.
I cried, I cried when Lazarus died. I wept
bitterly, I cried when I carried My cross
and felt betrayed and hurt, I created your
tears as a cleanser for you. A way to release
that which builds up in you.
I
am your God, I hold your hand, I want
you to put your head in My lap and weep
and come to Me and tell Me of your joy,
I want you to be you, created by God, I am
there to listen and support and love you.
I am your best friend, and I love you more
than you can love yourself trust Me with
your will and your life and I will make it
beautiful for you. Be happy and spread
your love to each other the devil comes
with his lies. The devil says "You are not
enough, you didn't
do enough, you can't do it." I am your God,
listen to Me
not the devil. Believe in your life living
according to your vocation for My honor
and glory. Don't be jealous, angry, envious,
mean
seeking dominance for dominance sake
Don't be willful. Do God's will with love.
You were created by Me, I LOVE you
My precious child.
end of excerpt
R. We can change our thinking
Satan wants us to give into anger
before anything even happens
we can be ready to be angry
letting anger seep in us
We have to live by God's Word
How we live by God's rules
Excerpt from Cycle B Homily Book - Reflect on the Word
Fourth Sunday of Easter -
May 3, 2009When I think of shepherds, I always remember 20 years ago when I climbed Mt. Sinai (Im glad I did it then, because I couldnt do it any more its very rugged and steep) and on the way down, I saw a shepherd and her sheep on a near-by hill. It was just getting dark. She started playing her flute and headed in a direction away from where we were; the sheep just fell in line following her. It was all the sheep trusted her knew how much they depended on her. It was a beautiful scene.
The metaphor is obvious. Christ is our shepherd. He wants us to trust him and follow him. Sometimes following him can get a little frightening; we dont know where hes taking us or what he might ask of us. Sometimes when he takes us through the desert, as shepherds need to do at times when they want to bring their sheep to better grazing ground, we ask why is he doing this to us? Thats why he is always telling us we need to have faith in him. Thats also why we need to pray - so we will have faith in him. Amen.
R. What about laziness
We can give into laziness
Luke 4: 2
for forty days being put to the test by the devil. During that time he ate nothing and at the end he was hungry.
R. The devil wants to attack us
when we are doing what is
right
The devil attacks the righteous
The devil tried to get to Jesus after
he was weak and tired in the desert.
The devils wants to get to us
In baptism we receive a sharing in
God's life and the Father, Son and
Holy Spirit remain in the graced,
baptized soul
God wants us to have joy in our
witnessing to God
Jesus wants us to have faith
The devil tells us if we believe
in Jesus
Why do we have problems
Why do we not love others and
ourselves
The devil wants confusion
The devil wants us
not to have faith in God
to doubt God and His undying
love for us
We have to have faith and
follow Christ not try
to fix others when we
have a problem ourselves
To take an action and then pray
God will make it work
is doing it the wrong way
We are to do God's will
to seek God's will
to do God's will
and then pray to God to
help it work, after we
did God's will
The devil wants us to disobey
God and then do something
we think is good, but not
God's will and then expect
it to work (A mud pie in the face!!)
We can then say "look at how good
I am", but I am disobedient to
those over me, disobeying just authority
is wrong if I am under them
God works in structure
Jesus: A man did his own will and then
he told his superior
what he did
then he did things harder and
more secretive he did his
will opposed to God's will, without
direction and he wanted the superior to
run after him and correct him, then
fight with him to get it removed.
This is like the abortion law
put this against God's will out there
and then fight for it to be removed killing babies!!
The devil works this way opposing
God's laws.
The man giving into satan has altered reality
and the man has changed the rules
then he makes confusion
with those under just authority
to make confusion and discredit the
just authority.
God is calling us to obey - just authority
Eve disobeyed God
she was lured with power and control
after all she was given
You can be addicted to misery
You can be addicted to self-pity
You can be addicted to negative thinking
You can be addicted to power
You can be addicted to control
"Oh poor me", attitude pity pot they can say
"I did this", "I did that"
"I want you to come and fill me
recognize me and
make me feel better"
Why do you act in anger and expect
anything, but a mud pie
in your face
God calls us to serve
God calls us to give
God calls us to use our talents
God gave to us
In Genesis God said increase and multiply
Genesis 9: 1-7
God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, Breed, multiply and fill the earth. Be the terror and the dread of all the animals on land and all the birds of heaven, of everything that moves on land and all the fish of the sea; they are placed in your hands. Every living thing that moves will be yours to eat, no less than the foliage of the plants. I give you everything, with this exception: you must not eat flesh with life, that is to say blood, in it. And I shall demand account of your lifeblood, too. I shall demand it of every animal, and of man. Of man as regards his fellowman, I shall demand account for human life.
He who sheds the blood of man,
by man shall his blood be shed,
for in the image of God
was man created.
Be fruitful then and multiply,
teem over the earth and subdue it!
R. We are to spread the Kingdom of God
Not sit around and keep all this
negative - fill me thinking going

Jesus: The devil wants to take you out
Don't give into him
Go to Mass, Go to the tabernacle
I love you. God created you
Do the will of God, Love
Praise Me, Be grateful
Love is a choice Your life
here is so short.
Prayer from St. Ignatius
Lord, teach me to be generous.
Teach me to serve you as you deserve;
To give and not to count the cost;
To fight and not to heed the wounds;
To toil and not to seek for rest;
To labor and not to ask for any reward,
Save that of knowing
that I am doing your will.
Soul of Christ
Soul of Christ, sanctify me
Body of Christ, save me
Blood of Christ, inebriate me
Water from the side of Christ wash me
Passion of Christ, strengthen me
O good Jesus, hear me
Within Thy wounds hide me
Permit me not to be separated from Thee
From the wicked foe defend me
at the hour of my death call me
and bid me come to Thee
That with Thy saints I may praise Thee
For ever and ever. Amen.
From The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius,
by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. p. 12
23. FIRST PRINCIPLE AND FOUNDATION
Man is created to praise, reverence and serve God
our Lord, and by this means to save his soul.
Jesus: You walk your whole life
Follow Me Let your heart
be filled with My Light
You cannot do what you want
The devil wants power and control
The devil is a deceiver
He put the red apple before you
He wants you puffed up
with pride.

Jesus is Crowned with a Crown of Thorns (excerpt)
1. R. They pounded into His head a sharp crown of piercing thorns. The blood ran down the side of His face into His eyes and into His ears. Blood ran from His mouth from the blows they had given to His head. Look at Jesus' face streaming with blood! This is the blood that He shed for love of each one of us! He calls out to us today to come ever closer to Him. He is outpouring His grace to us so we may be filled more and more with His life in us. He outpours His love. The soul searches this barren desert for so many things to fill it when only the love of God will satisfy the soul.
March 17, 1995
The Agony in the Garden (excerpt)
5. Jesus: I call out to you to take My plea seriously. My plea involves the salvation of souls. Open your hearts and let Me unite closely to you so that I can live in you. Through you I will touch My beloved ones that I love so dearly. How I love you this day, My precious ones. Be alone with Me, totally wrapped in My embrace. I am Jesus, your Savior, and I love you with the deepest, tenderest love. I pour My love out to you. Harken to Me. Let go!

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."
- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)
March 9, 1995
The Finding of the Jesus in the Temple (excerpt)
6. Jesus: Through My pierced side, I give Myself to you. You come to My pierced side and enter into the abundant love that I outpour to you in My Heart. Come and rest in My Heart. As you yearn to be ever closer to My Heart, come deeply into the wound in My side and you will enter the love of My Most Sacred Heart.
John 15: 5-6
I am the vine,
you are the branches.
Whoever remains in me, with me in him,
bears fruit in plenty;
for cut off from me you can do nothing.
Anyone who does not remain in me
is thrown away like a branch
and withers;
these branches are collected
and thrown on the fire
and are burnt.
March 9, 1995
The Presentation of Jesus in the Temple (excerpt)
9. Jesus: Seeing and hearing are not the keys to this union. It is deep seeded in your hearts. You must let go. Believe! Focus on your hearts! Do not focus on miracles! Do not focus on signs! Focus on the presence in your hearts. Read the letters as coming from Me so that every word is a light that radiates in your being, a light that will shine to the darkened world. You do not know the seriousness of the problems of this world. Souls are blind, deaf and dumb!
March 5, 1995
The Descent of the Holy Spirit (excerpt)
5. R. Dear Holy Spirit, in the Heart of the Virgin Mary, transform us more and more into the image of Jesus so that we may be led to the Father.

Chapter Meeting Prayer Format
The prayer format below should be followed at chapter meetings of Shepherds of Christ Associates. All prayers, not just those said specifically for priests, should include the intention of praying for all the needs of priests the world over.
1. Hymns. Hymns may be sung at any point of the prayer part of the meeting.
2. Holy Spirit Prayer. Come, Holy Spirit, almighty Sanctifier, God of love, who filled the Virgin Mary with grace, who wonderfully changed the hearts of the apostles, who endowed all Your martyrs with miraculous courage, come and sanctify us. Enlighten our minds, strengthen our wills, purify our consciences, rectify our judgment, set our hearts on fire, and preserve us from the misfortunes of resisting Your inspirations. Amen.
3. The Rosary.
4. Salve Regina. "Hail Holy Queen, Mother of mercy, our life, our sweetness, and our hope. To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve. To you do we send up our sighs, our mourning, our weeping in this vale of tears. Turn, then, most gracious advocate, your eyes of mercy toward us and after this, our exile, show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus, O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary."
5. The Memorare. "Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but, in your mercy, hear and answer me. Amen."
6. Seven Hail Marys in honor of the Seven Sorrows of Mary. Mary has promised very special graces to those who do this on a daily basis. Included in the promises of Our Lady for those who practice this devotion is her pledge to give special assistance at the hour of death, including the sight of her face. The seven sorrows are:
(1) The first sorrow: the prophecy of Simeon (Hail Mary).
(2) The second sorrow: the flight into Egypt (Hail Mary).
(3) The third sorrow: the loss of the Child Jesus in the temple (Hail Mary).
(4) The fourth sorrow: Jesus and Mary meet on the way to the cross (Hail Mary).
(5) The fifth sorrow: Jesus dies on the cross (Hail Mary).
(6) The sixth sorrow: Jesus is taken down from the cross and laid in Mary's arms (Hail Mary).
(7) The seventh sorrow: the burial of Jesus (Hail Mary).
7. Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

You supported the Holy Family of Nazareth with the work of your hands. Kindly protect those who trustingly turn to you.

10. Prayer for Priests. "Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock, we pray that in the great love and mercy of Your Sacred Heart You attend to all the needs of Your priest-shepherds throughout the world. We ask that You draw back to Your Heart all those priests who have seriously strayed from Your path, that You rekindle the desire for holiness in the hearts of those priests who have become lukewarm, and that You continue to give Your fervent priests the desire for the highest holiness. United with Your Heart and Mary's Heart, we ask that You take this petition to Your heavenly Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit. Amen"
11. Prayer for all members of the Shepherds of Christ Associates. "Dear Jesus, we ask Your special blessings on all members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. Continue to enlighten them regarding the very special privilege and responsibility you have given them as members of Your movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates. Draw them ever closer to Your Heart and to Your Mother's Heart. Allow them to more and more realize the great and special love of Your Hearts for each of them as unique individuals. Give them the grace to respond to Your love and Mary's love with an increased love of their own. As they dwell in Your Heart and Mary's Heart, abundantly care for all their needs and those of their loved ones. We make our prayer through You to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, with Mary our Mother at our side. Amen"
12. Prayer for the spiritual and financial success of the priestly newsletter. "Father, we ask Your special blessings upon the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ. We ask that You open the priest-readers to the graces You wish to give them through this chosen instrument of Your Son. We also ask that You provide for the financial needs of the newsletter and the Shepherds of Christ Associates. We make our prayer through Jesus, in the Holy Spirit, with Mary at our side. Amen"
13. Prayer for all members of the human family. "Heavenly Father, we ask Your blessings on all Your children the world over. Attend to all their needs. We ask Your special assistance for all those marginalized people, all those who are so neglected and forgotten. United with our Mother Mary, we make this petition to You through Jesus and in the Holy Spirit."
14. Prayer to St. Michael and our Guardian Angels:
"St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O prince of the heavenly hosts, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen."
"Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God's love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen."
15. Pause for silent, personal prayer. This should last at least five minutes.
16. Act of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
"Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock, I consecrate myself to Your most Sacred Heart. From Your pierced Heart the Church was born, the Church You have called me, as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, to serve in a most special way. You reveal Your Heart as a symbol of Your love in all its aspects, including Your most special love for me, whom You have chosen as Your companion in this most important work. Help me to always love You in return. Help me to give myself entirely to You. Help me always to pour out my life in love of God and neighbor! Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You!
"Dear Blessed Virgin Mary, I consecrate myself to your maternal and Immaculate Heart, this Heart which is symbol of your life of love. You are the Mother of my Savior. You are also my Mother. You love me with a most special love as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, a movement created by your Son as a powerful instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. In a return of love, I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock."
17. Daily Prayers. All members should say the Holy Spirit prayer daily and make the act of consecration daily. They should also pray the rosary each day. They are encouraged to use the other above prayers as time allows.

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 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 - 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 - 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 |

Guiding Light - The Word Alive in Our Hearts. - Cycle A (partial) Homilies by the Reverend Joe Robinson given at St. Boniface Church in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is a tremendous honor Fr. Joe has allowed us to share these great gifts with you – for greater holiness and knowing more and more about God. $10 |
