Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most

(End of Excerpt from March 8, 2001 Daily Message)
Messenger: I give my heart to Jesus and Mary
with you in love.
I write to you as a messenger of God.
The sky is so blue today and the trees will soon be green,
the spring flowers will come out all over, the air will be
fresh and the breeze dance across our foreheads and
we will be warmed by a golden sun high above that sheds
golden rays down on our weary little bodies.
A hand greater than ours runs this vast universe.
I am a grandma and I look into the eyes of a little child
that one day is not here and then all of a sudden, the cries
and little body of a beautiful baby comes to us, with
little fingers and toes and a little heart waiting for love in
the big world.
|
Messenger:
This year as the buds come out on the trees,
Father Carter
is not here on the earth to see them, his favorite season was
fall and the sight of one golden-red leaf reminds me so much
of him and how he treasured the fall leaves.
When we drove to China and he was to say Mass he
would always say – it is a sunny day. I remember the first
day in 1994 he asked me to go to Falmouth to the farm. I got
in the car he was driving and he said it is going to be a great
day.
|
|
Messenger: It was a most beautiful day. He took
me before
the statue of Mary and he
said to me lead the
rosary, I thought
I can't lead the rosary, he is a
priest.
I had never led the rosary except at
home and
with my children and then
we took turns. Father Carter said
again "lead the rosary" and so I did.
Then he said when a few people
joined us "Sing a Song" I thought
okay, I guess I can do it without a
piano so I did it. |
The Sacred Heart statue was not there yet when
Father Carter and I went to Falmouth Kentucky in 1994. |
That began my career of leading and praying the rosary in
public.
The day is sunny and the sky is Virgin Mary blue, – what is
that you say?
One day I hadn't seen Mary (only once she had appeared
July 17, 1993 in my dining room) and then that July 5, 1994
I would see Mary daily for 14 months. And I began to
know the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary from the way they spoke
to me when I
received the rosaries in the Red Rosary book.
The message I remember so deeply implanted in
my soul those last 9 months Mary appeared daily was to reach
the schools with the rosary and the meditations and consecration
cards. Our president sent out this picture of Mary this
year.
|
|
Do you want your school children
to be holy?
Then we must pray as Mary asked at Fatima on October 13th,
1917:
I am the Lady of the Rosary. I have come to
warn the faithful to amend their lives and to ask pardon for their
sins. They must not offend Our Lord any more, for He is already too
grievously offended by the sins of men. People must say the
Rosary. Let them continue saying it every day.
We would like to offer your school rosaries for the
youth, the Rosary Aves (short bead by bead meditations), and
consecration cards (all have the Imprimatur). We have
approximately 25,000 rosaries in stock for immediate delivery to
schools for October. Call our toll free number 1-888-211-3041 today
to reserve your school's supply and arrange immediate shipment. We
distribute the rosaries without charge by operating on a donation
basis.
We must instruct our children
about their souls. Our children need to learn to pray the rosary.
Praying one decade a day in schools will help children to have peace
and to love the rosary. They need to be taught to rely on the rosary.
Devotion to the rosary could help decrease violence and increase
vocations.
All of our printed materials can be downloaded
from our website at www.sofc.org or ordered over the phone. The
consecration cards really help in the classroom and often "spread
down the hall" after one teacher has success with it.
We love you and pray for you and the children every day,

Messenger: In October, 2000 we had
requests for over
80,000 rosaries from Catholic schools and we
didn't have rosary makers to fill them,
but we did
finally get all the rosaries for the schools that requested
them and are sending them out to them now.
Mary especially likes Walter's rosaries for the schools,
you can get packets by calling Morrow or e-mailing
and we can send them to you if you want to make
rosaries for the schools. We
have
a rosary factory in
Florida in the Virgin Mary building. Here is a
letter from our president.
A Note from the President of Shepherds of Christ:
If you are devoted to Our Lady's rosary, we need your help! A member of our ministry is
very devoted to Our Blessed Mother and he is helping to teach us how to grow our volunteer
rosary makers. He estimates that we will need approximately $37,000 this year for beads
alone! This translates into 22,339,500 rosary beads (yes, 22 million
beads) assembled by volunteers into 378 thousand rosaries. The biggest users of our
rosaries are the Catholic schools, who requested more than 100,000 rosaries last year.
Can you help us? I appeal to you for funds, whether large or
small. We give because we love God, we love our Blessed Mother, and we love souls. We will
accept gifts in many forms, besides cash or check donations, we can receive gifts directly
in the form of stocks or property. These gifts can offer large tax advantages to the donor
and increase the monetary value of the gift to us. Also if you can help assemble rosaries
we need your help! If you can help us in anyway, please call or write us. God Bless!
I love you,
John Weickert
Messenger: I don't know what I
would do without my rosary.
I love it and I can't wait to pray all my rosaries every day.
They are a big part of my peace and my life. I get into
that rosary and meditate on the mysteries and I am "set
free" and with my God. I meditate on the Joyful mysteries
and know
how I am being formed more and more into the
image of Jesus
and I love the birth of Jesus, my joy is in Jesus
my
Savior, my joy – He comes to the earth and gives Himself
to us. I love the Sorrowful Mysteries, I identify my
life with His, the Agony, Scourging at the Pillar,
Crowning with Thorns, Carrying of the Cross and Crucifixion
and I put all my sufferings of that day into
my moments
I recite the rosary and identify them with
Jesus' sufferings.
And then no matter how sorrowful the day, I know
that the Victory is
won.
I see the Resurrected Lord come forth from the tomb as
I meditate on the Glorious Mysteries.
|
My heart is filled with light and joy, I see the
Ascension and see Jesus go up into heaven and
I see us as His apostles here below standing in
the field saying "yes Jesus" we will do your work
and spread the good news - "Christ
has died,
Christ has risen, Christ will come
again."
And then I see all of us gathered at 6:20
everywhere on the earth and I see those apostles
gathered in
Florida, praying real hard for an extra
outpouring
of grace from the Holy Spirit for the
hungry souls of
the earth.
|
|
|
I see Mary go into heaven
I see the Coronation of Mary as Queen of heaven
and earth and then I think of the Reign of the
Sacred Heart and the triumph of Mary's Heart
and I am happy and I am filled with zeal to do
all I can to help bring about the Reign of the
Sacred
Heart and this great era of peace
Mary
promised at Fatima.
Do we want peace?

Here are some messages of Mary from Fatima. July 13, 1917 p.14.
Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima and Medjugorje
During this same July apparition, Mary showed the three children a vision
of Hell. She told them:
You have seen Hell, where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them,
God wishes to establish, in the world, devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If
people do what I tell you, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.
The war (World War I, then raging) is going to end. But if people do
not stop offending God, another and worse one will begin in the reign of
Pius XI. When you shall see a night illuminated by an unknown light [January
2, 1938], know that this is the great sign that God gives you that He is
going to punish the world for its many crimes by means of war, hunger, and
persecution of the Church and the Holy Father. (12)
To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to
my Immaculate Heart and the Communion of Reparation on the five first
Saturdays. If my requests are granted, Russia will be converted and there
will be peace. if not, she will scatter her errors throughout the world,
provoking wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred,
the Holy Father will have much to suffer, and various nations will be
destroyed....
But in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will
consecrate Russia to me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of
peace will be granted to the world. (13)
The October 13 vision was accompanied by the great Miracle of the Sun
described in the previous chapter. In her message that day, Our Blessed Mother
told the children:
I am the Lady of the Rosary. I have come to warn the faithful to amend
their lives and to ask pardon for their sins. They must not offend Our Lord
any more, for He is already too grievously offended by the sins of men.
People must say the Rosary. Let them continue saying it every day.(17)

May 31, 1994
Introduction: How It All Began
During the summer of 1993, Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Professor
of Theology at Xavier University, Cincinnati, Ohio, began to receive
mystical locutions (messages) from Jesus and Mary on a regular basis.
In a message given on May 31, 1994, Jesus asked Father Carter to
begin the publication of a spirituality newsletter for priests. To be
sent to more than 60,000 priests in the U.S.A., and also to priests in
other countries, the newsletter is published by Shepherds of Christ
Publications, an arm of Shepherds of Christ Ministries, and will be
distributed bi-monthly. The title of the newsletter is Shepherds of
Christ.
Jesus has asked that chapters be formed to pray for the needs of
priests around the world. The chapters are to pray in a special way for
the spiritual success of the priestly newsletter, as well as to aid in
the financial support of this publication. The chapters and members are
to be called Shepherds of Christ Associates.
Our Lord has stressed that Shepherds of Christ Associates
become an international movement. |
October 13, 1994
Message to Fr. Carter
Jesus speaks: 'My
beloved priest-companion, today I come to you with another mission. I am
asking you to establish Shepherds of Christ Ministries. At My request you
have already begun the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and
the prayer chapters, Shepherds of Christ Associates...
'I am giving you this message on this day, the 77th
Anniversary of the Great Apparition at Fatima, because of the close
connection between the Shepherds of Christ movement and the Fatima message.
The Fatima message is centered in devotion to My Heart and My Mother's
Heart, especially in consecration to Our Hearts. Shepherds of Christ
Ministries is also centered in devotion to Our Hearts. I will use Shepherds
of Christ Ministries as a great instrument in helping to bring about the
triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. When this
occurs, My Church and the world will be experiencing the great era of peace
promised by My Mother at Fatima.
'Today, then, October 13, 1994, the 77th Anniversary of
the Great Apparition at Fatima, marks the birth of Shepherds of Christ
Ministries. I pour forth the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am
Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock.'

Through Him, With Him, In Him
Excerpt from November 7, 1998 Daily Message
Jesus speaks: I am the Bread of Life. I
give you My Word and the Eucharist to feed you. Father Carter is My Bread of
Life priest. It is through these messages given to the messenger and through
the priestly newsletter that I wish the
hungry souls to come for My ardent on fire love.
(End of Excerpt from November 7, 1998 Daily
Message)
Mary speaks: I
appeared all through the century to you my beloved
earth.
At the end of the century My Son Jesus wrote through
my messengers Rita and Father Carter to help
bring about the Completion of the Mission
I began at Fatima, to help bring about
the Reign of His Sacred Heart.
Oh my children, please help me.
I am the Lady clothed with the sun,
I am the Lady of the Clouds.
I appear in sky color to you.
Revelation 12: 1-2
Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the
sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was
pregnant, and in labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth.
Messenger: I write now to you.
Messenger: The last day Father said Mass he was really sick,
he said it and then went in the hospital. He was
so holy.
His whole life was dedicated to writing about the
spiritual life. He coughed every time he talked all summer,
but he managed to write down his grand synopsis
of
the spiritual life in the 20 page Newsletter he wrote
in
June. He was determined to get it done. He wrote 17
books
and 33 Newsletters for the priests and the world
in
the last 33 years of the second millennium. Jesus
told
him to begin the movement in 1994.
He had a Doctor's in theology. I wish everyone could have
seen him those months when he wrote the last Newsletter
on Work. He knew labor. He labored hard to get all his
writings to us. Reading his Newsletter on work should
show us how a dying man who gave his life for
Jesus
and to bring the great Reign of peace
thought
as he labored to bring that writing to us.
The second to the last newsletter, the 20 page
Newsletter, was a summation of the spiritual life.
This
Newsletter he knew would go on forever and ever
in the
Church helping priests and all men.
Our Lord told him to begin the Movement and begin Prayer Chapters.
This was in 1994 on the feast of St. Ignatius. Father
Carter was a Jesuit
priest, it was on the feast of St.
Ignatius he got the message to begin the
Newsletter and the Prayer Chapters to help bring
about the Completion
of the Mission Mary began at
Fatima. 6 years later the Newsletter
goes to 75,000 priests. It goes in English and
Spanish in 90
countries, over 245-250 bishops and
cardinals use the Newsletter
for their dioceses.
After Father went into the hospital I hardly saw Father after
that, in the 3 months I talked to him
several times on the phone
daily and communicated to him through the fax. I went to a few
Masses a priest said and
they wheeled in the sick, skinny, priest
I loved so much, but most
of my time those last 3 months were
doing what he told me to do. Jesus had directed him to continue
the work of the Newsletter with his writings and to get the Prayer
Chapters
started all over the world to help with the Completion
of the
Fatima Mission. When he was in the hospital I saw him a
good part of the day. I met with him for a long time in the parlor
in November at his residence but most of the communication was
through long telephone conversations and faxes working to
continue this mission as Jesus had instructed him. The last time I
saw him was December 14, 2000, 4 days before he died. Here is
the picture of that meeting. It was at his Jesuit residence.
Messenger: Father worked so hard on that 20 page Newsletter,
it
was the synopsis of his whole life and he wrote about
the
spiritual life, our life with God and he was taping it
so he
could see if there were any typo's etc. He worked
so hard to make
everything perfect, so no errors were
in any writings, so they could
be passed on and circulated
to Cardinals, bishops and priests all over
the world.
He was sick when he was reading it, but he forced
himself
and he explained how it was set up to me. He told
me
about it. In the Newsletter he talked about the overview
of
the Spiritual life, the life of grace through baptism,
our relationship with Jesus who is
Mediator.
He wrote of our relationship with the Father, the
Holy
Spirit and Mary. Then he told me (all this from
the table of contents of the newsletter) how we live out the
spiritual life in the Church. The Heart of the
Spiritual
life is in the sacraments and the Eucharist.
Father says in his newsletter on priesthood
"Through the sacrament of Holy Orders,
Jesus has
provided His Church with priests who play a major
role
in the dispensing of this life which
Jesus
has come to give and to give most
abundantly."
Priesthood is key to the life of the Church.
Prayer is the key exercise of the spiritual life.
And I quote from Father's Newsletter about our relationship
with
others.
"Growth in the Christ-life gives us an increased
awareness of our relationships with others.
That is to say, the true Christian is keenly aware
that, to a great degree, God intends each of us to
press on toward maturity in the spiritual life
through proper relationships with our fellow
human beings."
From Father's Newsletter on the Christian and the World I quote:
"God calls us to share His love for His creation.
Growth in Christ develops our awareness of this
truth. The Christian should have a deeper love for
the world than the non-believer."
Purification
Growth in the spiritual life entails an ongoing
and progressive purification.
Faith
From Father's Newsletter on the Vision of Faith I quote
"Through faith we share in God’s knowing activity
in a special way, and we are able to know God and
creation in relationship to God in a supernatural,
God-like fashion.
If we are to properly progress in the spiritual life,
we must allow this vision of faith to more and more
penetrate our activities."
Hope
The virtue of trust is extremely important for
growth in the spiritual life.
From Response to God's Love I quote
"Christian hope is a virtue that allows us to tend toward God
in Christ as our absolute fulfillment, our absolute future. Hope
allows us to trust that God will grant us the graces necessary to
achieve this goal."
Humility
Humility is a very important virtue given to us
for the spiritual journey.
One of the blocks to the spiritual life, Father said,
was lack of humility.
Strength in Weakness
We must realize our weakness and see our
strength is in Him.
Living in the Present Moment
I quote from Father
"I suggest that one of the most difficult acts
of self-discipline in the spiritual journey
is to concentrate on the present moment."
This is necessary Father says for growth in the spiritual life.
Surrender to God
We must surrender to God. We give ourselves more
and more to Jesus.
We are guided through the Church
Mind and Heart
We cannot become heartless and too much
focused in our minds.
The Mystical Life
The mystical life is the relative ultimate development
of the spiritual life itself.
Father talks about the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and
the life of Consecration.
Here is the copy of the Table of Contents on his twenty
page Newsletter.
Messenger: Father wrote his whole life about the Spiritual life,
his first book Response in Christ
is the beginning.
In the new Newsletter he explains the
Christian Life of Grace.
In it he explains grace in general. He
explains the Graced Christian, their
relationship with the Father, Christ, the
Holy Spirit, Mary, the members of the
Church, and the relationship with
man and his world.
Here is this table of contents from the most recent
Newsletter on Grace, Issue 1, 2001
Messenger: Father wrote about the spiritual life, always
explaining it and our relationship
with the Triune God, Father, Son and
Holy Spirit, Mary, and our relationship with
the members of the Church and
the relationship with man
and his world.
Father wrote
1) Response in Christ 1967
2) Response to God’s love
1984
3) Tell My People 1994
4) Spirituality Handbook 1994
5) The Newsletter Issue 3, 2000
This was his final complete document on
this subject The
Spiritual Life.
He told me that Jesus covered the whole of
the spiritual life in His messages
in Tell My People.
He said the spirituality handbook was
a
synopsis of the spiritual life
and
all Shepherds of Christ
members
should read it over and
over.
This is on tape as Father
Carter
reads it.
The Newsletter issue 3, 2000 was a great work.
He
worked hard and he told me how Jesus
wanted
it out and told me how important
it
was.
We struggled so much for money for it. It was hard
on Father writing it while he was literally dying.
He told us Jesus said it must go out. After
he worked so hard to meet the deadline, we did
not
have money for the Newsletter and it was
held
up. Father was upset because Jesus told
him
it must go out. God the Father gave me
strong
messages to get this newsletter out.
I felt that God might punish the earth
because
even after Mary appeared on the
building
we couldn’t get help to pay for the
newsletter.
Father prayed every day at Mass. He wanted to
please
God.
He was told of the urgency of this.
Finally someone gave us the money.
The person told us he promised Jesus while visiting
Rome that he would help us.
Do you believe? Do you realize the gift given to us
in
Father Carter's writings. He was directed
to
write to the priests. We have struggled
for
money to do what God asked him to do.
I have cried for help to do what Our Lord and Our
Lady
have
asked for.
We just don't know the gifts
in
Father
Carter’s writings and how it is
so
important to help bring about this
great
Reign of the Sacred Heart.
Here is an excerpt from a letter I recently wrote
to a man on March 8, 2001.
. .
.This
Newsletter was Father Carter’s 32nd Newsletter out of the 33 he published
while
he was alive (speaking of Father Carter's newsletter An Overview
of the Spiritual Life). It was his “baby” to help lead the priest into a deeper love
union with Jesus and help them in their spiritual life. In the 17 books he wrote
the last 33 years of the second millennium (the last 33 years of his life) they were
written with this deep connection to Jesus. All his books went through strict
discernment and most have the Imprimatur, I think all the
Nihil Obstat
He
was praying every day for funds for the Newsletter to be sent to
the 75,000 priests. We operate on donations. Father prayed
at Mass every day for this. We pray with all our hearts, in China,
Indiana, our Eucharistic Center, where the
international mailing
is sent from. They pray on the hour (during the day) for all the needs
of the
movement and they pray at least a couple of hours every night
at 6:20 all before the tabernacle. We have a retreat every
month for 48 hours before the
exposed Eucharist praying
so hard for grace to be outpoured on the souls of the
earth,
telling Jesus how much we love Him. We want to make reparation
to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary for the offenses against them and we
offer our prayers at this retreat for this.
We
plead for grace for the souls of the earth. We pray
united as a body.
Father
gave me instructions to get the Newsletter Issue 1, 2001 out in
January with his writing on Grace. I just never realized
he would be dead. It costs us
$70,000 to send the Newsletter
to the Priests for Printing and Postage. We pray
hard and the funds come.
We prayed so hard for Father’s 20 page Newsletter
and a
man came and he promised Jesus he would help us while he
was in Rome. He wanted to give the money to help
Jesus, he said.
It
is really hard. In October we had over 80,000 orders for
rosaries for schools. We have to get people to make
all these rosaries. Sometimes we don’t
send the rosaries
because we don’t have people to make them.
Sometimes we
don’t send them because
we don’t have
funds to send them.
Our
Lady wants all things being shipped from our
Eucharistic Center in China Indiana…
The
man who donates money must realize what a light they are
to
the world. The Newsletter goes to 75,000 priests who affect millions
of people in Churches, in the Body of Christ and others all over the world.
Now
we are struggling so much to send out this Newsletter
Issue 1, 2001 to so many priests that Father taught about Jesus. This
instrument Jesus told him to write. We will tell
them about his death and then give about 50,000 priests in the
US the prayer manual to begin Prayer Chapters.
This is what Jesus told Father
Carter to do, to begin these prayer
chapters. Jesus said He would give great grace
to those who pray the prayers
to
lead
them to the depth of His Heart and His
Mother’s Heart.
75,000
Priests will get the Newsletter that talks
about the Morning Offering. When Father Laurentin did
his article on Clearwater he included the little prayer
of morning
offering Jesus gave me in French.
Now so many priests will think more
about consecration
and the morning offering from reading the Newsletter. If people
offered up their days in union with the Mass, so much
grace could be outpoured on the earth. This
could change the face of the earth.
This Newsletter Father wanted. We are on
the
mountain top now.
Father is interceding from the other
side
for grace for the world for the Reign
of the Sacred Heart
in all Hearts.
If priests began prayer chapters all
over the
world with the Prayers Jesus gave
Father Carter it
could help majorly to bring to completion the
mission Mary began at Fatima that the
Sacred Heart will Reign in the hearts of
men on this earth.
We are at battle. This is the war.
Christ is Victorious.
We want to reach the
souls so more will go to heaven, so they will be
on the right side with Jesus.
This is our mission, to pray for the
souls, the priests, the Church
and the world and to get others to be united with us praying
for the priests the Church and the world.
We are sending this current Newsletter
with the Prayers
Jesus gave Father and the Prayer Manual to priests
all over the world, 75,000. Father Carter regularly
wrote to them.
They will call from all over to begin
prayer chapters
and we can only order
100,000 prayer manuals to
be printed, that isn't even 2 per priest.
$10,000 buys 100,000 Prayer Manuals and
18,000 buys 200,000 Prayer Manuals.
It usually takes 3 to 4 weeks to print
them.
Most of the
priests
in the US will be getting this Newsletter and
Prayer Manual
in a few days 20,000
Newsletters were sent out of China,
Indiana on
March 2, 2001, First Friday to the Foreign
countries. We need Prayer
Manuals. That is what Jesus told Father Carter could
majorly help
to bring about the Completion of the Fatima Mission and
the Reign of the Sacred Heart in so many hearts.
We are at battle with the devil. Jesus
has won
already. We need to reach the
souls so, so many
souls will make Him King of their Hearts.
Mary told us what to do at Fatima.
Jesus told
Father Carter at the end of the century what He
wanted Father Carter to do.
I go to prisons and nursing homes and
speak sometimes.
I try to get others to
visit nursing homes and prisons. It is important
we tell them their lives are so
important to God. They can offer up all
they do in union with the Mass for souls
and grace can be released for
the thirsty souls from their offering.
I am an Apostle of the Sacred Heart of
Jesus, that
is what we are in the
Movement, living to help
bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart.
Just think $18,000 can get 200,000
Prayer
Manuals in the hands of priests all
over the world,
praying for the priests, the Church and the world.
We get so many letters every day from
Africa –
begging for rosaries and
religious books. We have people
all over the world that pray the prayers with us.
The
Prayers Jesus gave to Father Carter.
When priests read of Father Carter's
death, priests that loved him
they will hear about the Prayer Manual and the Prayers.
I am begging for help for money for Prayer Manuals
now.
Mary appeared to me daily long before she appeared on
the building and I would cry because the last 9 months
of the 14 months she appeared she wanted us
to reach
the school children and I didn't know how to do it.
I was so blocked and
so few would listen to Mary's
message. I would go to Holy Cross-Immaculata
Church
and hang over the pew and I felt as if swords were in me.
Jesus and Mary gave me the consecration prayers on
the little red cards for the school children. I
cried many times when Mary spoke
to me.
The night Our Lady gave me the School
Rosary
program I cried all night.
I am not in this for money. Mary
appeared daily between July 5, 1994 -
September 5, 1995. After all that, the day the Red Rosary book left the
publisher December 17, 1996, Mary appeared on the
building in Rainbow Color.
I was told to put Harold's rainbow
and rose on the
cover of the Red Rosary book.
We had 17th meetings monthly since February 17, 1994 to
about September 17, 1996. Jesus called the first 13th meeting on
October 13, 1996. At this meeting He
strongly called the apostles.
Then Mary appeared on the building December 17,
1996.
Books had been published with the
fact, I received a vision of Jesus' Sacred
Heart December 17, 1991 long before Mary
appeared on the building. My first
message
ever published was December 17, 1993 long before
Mary appeared on the building December 17, 1996.
For years my heart ached because of what
Our Lady said when she appeared
daily
January 1, 1995 - September 5, 1995 about reaching the
children and the
schools.
I love souls and the devil wants them
for
himself and he doesn't like what we
are doing.
On January 5, 2001 Mary appeared in rainbow color on
the building as Father Mike lead the rosary.

January 5,

Messenger: She appeared in golden color on the 5ths in the year 2000.

July 5, 2000 |
|
Messenger: Before that when I said the rosaries on the 5th at night
July 5, 1998 to the end
of 1999 the glass appeared black on the building. On the
third anniversary she
appeared gold December 17, 1999, then
she started appearing in gold on the 5ths.
Without
a flash we took these pictures during the rosaries on
the 5ths. She first
appeared to me July 5, 1994. July 5, 1998
Father Carter consecrated the world
to the Sacred Heart from the
Florida building. July 5, 2000 we got the first
picture
of Mary appearing in gold at night.
Messenger: February 5, 2001 I got Jesus' face. Here
are
the pictures from March 5, 2001 when I did
the rosary under Mary.

My
dear donors,
Your gifts are helping to bear fruit all over the
world
in many priests' hearts. They are helping our
children
and the souls of the earth.
What a gift to be able to see our
money
live on and on to better
the
world and help souls get to
heaven.
Thank you for your gifts.
I love you,
Rita Ring
To
whom it may concern. We work very closely
with a priest daily and many bishops and
priests are helping us do what we do. None of my
writings or messages are published without
discernment by a Roman Catholic Priest.
(Letters from others are not part of my writings, they are
letters from others.)
A Note from the President
If we can make
a $20,000 payment on the newsletter (which just went out to the 75,000
priests and 8,500 religious houses last week), our printer will start the
prayer manual and can have 200,000 ready by March 21.
I give my heart
to Jesus and Mary with you in love.
John
Excerpt from Tell My People
Follow the Way I Have Given You
Jesus speaks: "My beloved priest-companion, I have given you
this book of messages for the spiritual instruction of My people. I have put
before My people the path I wish them to follow. The messages I and My Mother
have given all converge upon devotion to Our Hearts, and, in particular, upon
consecration to Our Hearts. Ideally, devotion to Our Hearts culminates in the
act of consecration to My Heart and My Mother's Heart. Living out this
consecration day by day leads to the highest sanctity.
"My people who make and live out the consecration to Our Hearts are
helping to bring about the great new era of peace which the Church and the
world will experience after the period of purification has been completed.
This period of splendorous peace will be characterized by the triumph of the
Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart!"
Reflection: Jesus and Mary, in Their great love for us, have put
before us this book of messages for our spiritual instruction. The Hearts of
Jesus and Mary ask for our response of love. They ask us to live the messages.
They ask us to incorporate all the messages into the living out of our
consecration to Their Hearts. Who would want to refuse Their invitation?

Dear
Father Carter:
I am
very grateful for the the Letter: Shepherds of Christ, which you so generously
send me. I have read them and am re-reading most of them.
I am
sending a small donation to help pay the expenses of sending some of them. I
wish I could send more. I am in a Rural Parish in the hills of Puerto Rico where
work is scarce.
If
possible and available, I would like to have the last four copies in Spanish. I
am stationed with a Puerto Rican Confrere and his English is limited. Having the
copies in Spanish, we both can enjoy reading them. In the future, please send me
the Spanish copy instead of the English copy.
Gratefully
yours,
Rev.

Dear Fr. Carter,
Receive many greetings from Kenya. I am

Christmas.
I do hope you are fine and all is well with
you.
Kindly I am requesting for:
1. Newsletters
2. Tape Cassettes
3. Video Cassettes
4. Rosaries
Kindly send me as many rosaries as you
could. The demand for them in Hospitals and Schools and Colleges is very
high. Next year I am starting Prison Apostolate and I am sure the demand
will be high. I am happy the way many are consecrating their lives to the
Sacred Heart of our Mother and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Thank you very.
I hope to hear from you soon.
With gratitude and Merry Christmas

I sincerely thank you sincerely from the bottom of my heart for the recent parcel
received. I cherish them very much and have dutifully distributed them to the few
members who can have them.
Our chapter is a big one and we have them in all the 26 Parishes of our
Diocese. I am sending the picture of our jubilee celebration here in our Diocese
for you to know that we have a lot of people. We shall therefore be grateful
if more prayer booklets can be received. I am ready and willing to say Masses for the
benefactors who can pay for the shipment. Hoping to hear from you.

A PLEDGE FROM AN APOSTLE OF THE SACRED
HEART
Messenger:
I am but a little speck on this earth,
but with His might He can use me
to spread the devotion to His
Most Sacred Heart.
Oh dear and precious Heart of Jesus
I give myself as completely as
possible to Thee so you will use
me to spread the devotion to the
ends of the earth for Your most
precious Heart.
I am Rita your precious soul.
Use me to help to spread this burning
devotion to the souls of this
earth.
I am yours, take me, use me as you
will.
I surrender myself to you.
It is your might behind me, your power
that sends me. I am an Apostle of
the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I give
myself as completely as possible
to
Thee.
Sacred Heart of Jesus I place my
trust in Thee.
Father hear us please. We beg through
the intercession of Father Carter
and Our Lady of Clearwater that
prayer chapters are started all over
the world and the Priestly Newsletter
gets there immediately with the
Prayer Manual.
Mary's
Message from the Rosary of August 27, 1996
Mary speaks: I stood
beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I
saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my
Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give
in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you
this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath
the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones
that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen
to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my
Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been
ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please
help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood
beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little
children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please,
please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother.
I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.
Song: O Lady of Light, shining
so bright, be with us this day, guiding our way, O Lady, O Lady of Light.
Mary speaks: I
appear to you as Our Mother of Sorrows.
(End of Mary's Message)
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.

December 17, 2000, Mary speaks:
Help me to circulate my red and blue
Rosary Books and the
prayers my Son gives to you.
This is a gift we give you.
All the revelations are gifts given to you.
My Son is the Light of the World.
He is Jesus born in a stable.
Will you help me?
He is the Light of the World. Help me, help me
reach my children of the world. |
