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."

Jesus speaks:
I promise to outpour My grace
on those priests and parishes
beginning these prayer chapters
dedicated to My Sacred Heart and
My Mother's Immaculate Heart.
My beloved U.S. and the World —
You must consecrate your hearts
to My Sacred Heart and
My Mother's Immaculate Heart
then you will have peace in
the world.
My people you must consecrate
all places to My Sacred Heart
and My Mother's Immaculate
Heart.
Consecrate your Homes to My Sacred
Heart and My Mother's Immaculate
Heart.
| April 12, 1999
Jesus speaks: I wish a card to be circulated extensively. All that is necessary to consecrate a place to My Heart and My Mother's Heart is that the people wish to do so and say that they consecrate the place and the people that dwell there to Our Hearts. It is understood that you are entrusting people who live or come there to the care of Our Two Hearts. Pictures or statues of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart should be displayed somewhere in the dwelling. Some persons, if not all, should spend time in devotion to the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart before the pictures, daily if possible. This consecration should be renewed daily if possible. I wish all who receive this message to circulate this material so that the whole world will be consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Invoking upon him joy and peace in our Lord Jesus Christ, he cordially

Dear Ones in Christ,
Peace and Health to you all.
I am happy to assure you all that I have
received the precious books that you have so generously sent to
us. I have distributed to the priests of ____ diocese free
of charge. I only ask them to thank you all and offer a Mass
on every First Friday of the month. The only thing we can return
you.I pray to the good Lord to love, bless and
reward you all for your awful charity, generosity and fraternal
solidarity.I am a retired bishop now. But I still go
around to see my old and new catholics. From 18 to 28 of April,
I went to ____ and ____ borders to baptize and confirm. The
four priests baptized about 600 persons while I confirmed about
450 persons. There are many more ___ pagan villages want to
become catholics. Please pray for them and for me too. Thank you.With prayerful wishes and God bless you
and your wonderful works for the greater glory of God and
salvation of souls.Yours in our Lord and Lady,
Bishop _________

Dear Fr. John,
Thank you very much for your kind letters dated April 7 and 16 last together with the many enclosures concerning initiatives started by Fr. Edward J. Carter.
I am pleased to inform you that the devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary is widespread in this Archdiocese, as also the Divine Mercy devotion. In fact, our Archdiocese has been solemnly consecrated to the Immaculate Heart of Mary on August 15, 1997, Feast of Our Lady's Assumption and the 50th Anniversary of _____'s independence. This consecration is renewed every year in all our parishes. I do it officially in our Cathedral. Besides, all families are encouraged to consecrate themselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and this year we are going to make a special drive so that the image of the Sacred Heart can be enthroned in those homes where it is still not done in our Archdiocese.
It might interest you to know that in the 80 of the 113 parishes in this Archdiocese, we have daily adoration to the Blessed Sacrament from early morning till late in the evening. The practice of having all night adoration in parishes once a month is growing steadily.
I was deeply impressed by the photographs you sent me of the image of Our Blessed Mother in the Church of Our Lady of Clearwater. It is touching to note the tender love and concern of our Heavenly Queen.
I recommend the Archdiocese of _____ and my pastoral ministry to your special prayers. Thank you very much in anticipation. Rest assured of a regular memento at Holy Mass.
With cordial regards and sincere good wishes, I remain
Yours fraternally in Corde Mariae Cardinal _________
Dear Father Carter,
For years I have received Shepherds of Christ Newsletter; I do not know who put me on your mailing list, but I’m grateful to you both. Since I first began to receive the newsletter I have been assigned as the Director of Formation Advising for the Pontifical North American College in Rome.
I would like to know if it would be possible to make a bulk order so that our seminarians could benefit from the newsletter as well. I will make sure they are distributed to our seminarians. At present we have about 200 seminarians and student priests on our campus, all eager for good spiritual reading!
Please let me know if we can make an arrangement for the delivery of the newsletter here at the college.
Please keep our faculty and seminarians in your prayers.
Sincerely yours in Christ,Rev. _______

Dear John Weickert, President
Loving greetings to you from Bishop _____.
Received your kind letter and the parcel of Newsletter Book II specially sent for me. Thank you for the same. Previously I had been receiving the Newsletter for my priests in the diocese. I am at the receipt of the red Associates Prayer Manual (prayer for priests) too. I will be happy with you kind help, to translate these books of course with the Imprimatur into our _____ language, which is known as the Italian of the East, so that the books may reach to every corner of this region and thus people making use of the books pray for the priests. I too feel that all must pray for the priests and for his holiness.
I would be happy to join with the mission of Fr. Edward J. Carter. In the meantime you please send me another set of 100 books II for my religious sisters and brothers in the region.
Assuring my prayers and blessings for your prayer mission, I remain.
Yours in the Lord,

Subject: Letter for Mr. John Weickert from Bishop_____Dear Mr. Weickert,
I am in receipt of your letter dated 13.5.2002 which seems to have reached me very late, indeed, just a few days ago.
I would like to say the following:
1. I was very said to learn of the death of Fr. Edward Carter. He died
in the year 2000 but I had not realized this till I got your letter. I think
Fr. Carter was an extraordinary man, doing an extraordinary work. I
am so glad that you and others continue this inspiring ministry.2. Over the past few years, I have been the recipient of many
kindnesses from your organization which I wish to acknowledge
with warm thanks and appreciation.3. I feel sorry that, for various reasons, I can do little to help financially.
However, if I can offer some masses (about 15) for the intentions
for your organization for which stipends may be available at your
end and which could be used as a contribution to your finances, I
would do this with great joy. Please letme know if this helps.Please convey my warmest good wishes and thanks to all the members of your organization. May Lord continue to use Fr. Carter, in his newfound union with Him to renew the priesthood across the entire world.
Gratefully,
+ Auxiliary Bishop ______
