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

My dear friends,
I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in love. Today is the
anniversary of a great vision I had on March 26, 8 years ago. Little did I
know what that would mean. This account of this vision is enclosed.
On
March 26, 1994
ten years ago I talked to Fr. Carter for the
first time at length at the Faber House. He said he thought I was a genuine
locutionist. He had already discerned most of Blue Book I. This was 4 days
after the corner fell off the old seminary.
How far we have come from then. The birth of the Shepherds of
Christ Ministries came from the old seminary, Mary appeared to me daily from
the old seminary and Jesus and Mary gave me the messages in the Red Rosary
Book from the old seminary.
Ten years ago
Since we have sent
the Newsletter around the world to 86,000 priests, the prayers are in 6
languages with the Imprimatur,
prayer chapters are all over the world and we have put the rosary (made by
the rosary-makers) in the hands of so many children as Mary requested.
God the Father sent Mary as a Messenger to us to deliver these
writings to the earth to help renew the Church and the world and to pray for
the priests.
Jesus still appears as you see in the enclosed pictures. Mary
appeared to lead us to Jesus. Mary appeared to lead us to her Son’s
Movement. Read the Message (given to) Fr. Carter July 31, 1994 (enclosed) and the
message I received when Mary appeared to me early on
August 1, 1994
the next day. I remember so clearly the
vision and the message of Mary at the old seminary – it was early, early,
about
6:20AM
–
The Shepherds of Christ Movement is Jesus’ Movement to help to
bring to completion the mission Mary began at Fatima.
After Mary appeared to me over 500 times, daily, in an old seminary,
she continued to appear to me on the 5ths until Jesus appeared at the point
of death December 5, 1996
(12 days before Mary appeared in Clearwater,
Florida). Enclosed is the sheet of her apparitions
to us on the 5ths as I did the 5th prayer services.
April 5, 2004
is the 9th anniversary of these
monthly meetings as requested by Mary. If you cannot come to Florida, Morrow or
China tune in on the Shepherds of Christ radio and
pray with us, if you can’t get the radio pray with us if you can at home
or Church. Let’s pray for grace for the world to hear and answer this call
of Mary and Jesus in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Let’s pray for
grace for our priests, the Church and the world. Let's pray at 6:20
yellow book (Holy Spirit Novena) and red
book 6:30
as Jesus has instructed us. Let’s tell God
we are sorry for the neglect of the image by some in Florida
and we are sorry for the offences against
the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart.
We need your support. After this abominable thing done to this image,
we still see the face of Jesus pleading on the window in Clearwater, Florida.
Hear the message in the stations given to
us from Him, I heard Him speak them February 22, 1995 and I cried so hard, I
received them in the Holy Spirit Chapel at the old seminary.
Mary begged us to reach the schools, to help pay for the building the
summer of 2001 when I went to the building on
September 5, 2001, the window was almost black. Jesus gave me
the enclosed message the day
September 6, 2001. This was before the horrible incident
September 11, 2001
(5 days before).
Jesus wants us to reach the priest with the Priestly Newsletter Book
III and the Treasury Book, and Jesus wants us to own the Building in
Clearwater
outright. We had to close the Rosary Factory
September 11, 2002
because of funds.
Mary wants us to reach the children with the rosaries.
Please help us.
Thanks for your support.
With love in Their
Hearts

March 26, 1996
Very carefully discerned by Fr. Carter
Messenger: I came to All Saints Church before a
beautiful Monstrance of gold that contained Our beloved Savior. He was
adorned in light, the altar beneath shone with the brightest light and the
cross behind was entirely silhouetted with the same celestial light. I was
overwhelmed with the presence of God and cried deeply from the awe of it
all.
To be so aware of the Almighty God truly present in
His splendor and glory—to know the presence of God, to see the glistening
of the gold and the light and reflection of the cross behind Him—my
beauteous love—words do not exist to describe the rapture of a heavenly
embrace! I cry because of the immense awe within my being to know Him. God
truly present in His majesty and glory and oh, God, I behold the presence of
a heavenly court. You opened wide the heavens and lifted up the veil and I
knew You in Your splendor and glory. I behold God, Father, Son, and Holy
Spirit.
"I am the Way, the Truth and the Life." He
is the Almighty God. He shows us the celestial lights with which He will
light this earth. Many must surrender their hearts to His Heart and Mary's
heart. It is in surrendering, the Spirit will move in the hearts of men and
the light of God will shine on the darkened earth. Not with a light that you
comprehend, but a light that is divinely granted—a light beyond all
lights, a vision beyond all visions. It takes the surrender of minds and
hearts to God. The Spirit cannot move in us when we are in control.
Surrender and give Him our heart and He will make us fishers of men.
We are His apostles in the Shepherds of Christ
Movement. He is sending us out into the world to light the hearts with His
burning love. We are chosen by Him and He is giving us abundant graces to
grow in our union with Him. He will light this world with His burning love.
Our hearts must be open. We must surrender and let go and reach beyond the
senses, reach with our hearts. Pray for faith, pray for the vision of God.
Note: I cried all through this writing, having the
presence of God and being in great ecstasy to behold Him. May God touch your
heart and may His Spirit move within you. May you be filled with the grace
of God to surrender and let Him accomplish a great work within you.
And I was filled on high with His miraculous light and
He reached down and spoke within me. I was filled as never before and knew
the presence of God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Note: As I finished, the bells at All Saints
Church rang at 9:00 A.M. As I began to experience the immense splendor, the
bells of 8:00 rang. Words do not express anything that I saw or experienced
or know from this ecstasy. This was the greatest and the first of three
visions, which defined clearly to me our role in the Shepherds of Christ
Movement. Jesus defines clearly the role of Fr. Carter in this great mission
given to him by the Father.
For Fr. Carter from Jesus:
Jesus speaks: To him who has eyes to see, they will see -
not with earthly vision, but with the eyes of faith, and to him who has ears
to hear, he will hear with the fluttering of the Spirit moving within him.
I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. I am the
Almighty God. I say to the rocks to fall and they fall and to the grass,
grow, and it grows, and to the sun, shine, and it shines. I give to you My
love in these letters. Filled with My love, you will conquer this earth, not
with weapons and powder or force, but with fires of My love. The fire will
wipe out the hatred in the cold hearts and the earth will be covered with My
celestial light. The earth will rock and I will appear in the heavens
adorned in power and glory and the contrite hearts will be saved. I came to
separate the sheep from the goats, the light from the darkness. I come and
no one pays Me heed.
To you, My beloved son, Father Carter, I have sent you
on a mission to spread this fire that will cover this earth. The hearts of
men will turn from their sick and desolate ways to hearts gentle as a little
lamb.
There will be one flock and one Shepherd and My staff
will rule over all. Hearts consecrated to Our Hearts will lead the light
across the earth. This light will be a light of intense brightness, brighter
and hotter than any light from a flame. It will be the fire of God's love.
The Spirit will move in the hearts of all consecrated to My Heart, and you
will know how fire truly spreads, for the love of God is a fire. It is
vibrant. It is encompassing. It is smoldering, burning deep within and
speedily spreading on the outside. No fire on this earth can ever describe
the burning embers that burn from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. No fire burns
like the fires coming from My Heart and hearts filled with the love from the
Sacred Heart of Jesus.
I have written your name, Fr. Carter, in My Heart,
never ever to be blotted out and this earth will be renewed with the fire of
God's love through you. You are My beloved priest-son, forever, according to
the order of Melchizedek. Most holy and most sacred are your hands that
consecrate the Host and write My precious newsletter for My beloved
priest-sons. You are never unguarded. You are held within the deepest
chamber of My Heart, and you will spread My love to the priest-sons of this
earth.
I am Jesus. You will spread My love to all souls on
this earth. I love you with the tenderest burning love. I am Jesus, your
beloved Savior.

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.

first official message I received before the statue of Mary at Our Lady of
the Holy Spirit Center. It is a personal message for Father Carter.
Mary speaks: (in front of the
glowing statue of Our Lady of Sorrows) I am the Immaculate Heart. My Heart
is glowing for love of all my beloved children. I am your most loving
Mother. I am with you this day. Pray for the success of the priestly
newsletter Shepherds of Christ. I am guarding your way. You will receive
such graces to accomplish this task! Grace from God is so abundantly
bestowed on you and will lead to the success of this endeavor! Pray for
this cause at the Center. The priests will lead the people to the love of
My beloved Son. This is no little task. It will take many prayers and
graces. Pray hard, little one. Your prayers will change many hearts.
I am Mary, your Immaculate Mother. I
bring this message to My beloved priest-son.

Jesus speaks:
You must pray for your donors.
I appeared and my mother appeared
for the whole world.
The apparition is not appreciated.
The fact you cannot even make
the rent payment for the
building is proof.
So much money in the world and the
state of Florida.
Look at your news on television.
Look at what the news is on the

MARY HAS APPEARED ON THE

YOU DO NOT EVEN TAKE
NOTICE.
It is not the responsibility of 100
people to support such a vision.
It is a gift from God.
This shows you the focus of men
and your news.
Your eyes are blind.
I ask today September 6, 2001 to
see Our images and to help
do what We have asked you to do.
These messages are important.
You have ignored Me.
THE PRAYER CARDS, Prayer for Union

Messenger:
Jesus also said "All materials
used for the school rosary program
printed by B&M have helped the
school children."
Jesus speaks:
The Priestly Newsletter is a gift from God.
Because of these prayers your world
is a better place.
If B&M closes and the printing stops -
your world will be affected.
Again I repeat, these revelations and
materials are for the world.
Mary appears the Lady clothed in gold
for the world.
Very, very few are helping to do what I ask.
My movement is to help the priests, the
Church and the world, it is a gift.
Because of My movement, the world is a
better place.
You will feel the effects if the printing stops.
I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus, I speak here.

Apostles
of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus
My dear fellow
Associate Members,
Jesus is calling special apostles to join a new division
of the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Here is a message from Jesus given to
Father Carter:
My beloved priest-companion, I am requesting that a new prayer movement be
started under the direction of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I am asking
for volunteers who are willing to pray before the Blessed Sacrament for one
hour, twice-weekly. Members of the Shepherds of Christ prayer chapters, as
well as others, are to be invited to join this movement.
These apostles are to pray for the intentions I am giving you. For part of
the hour they are to use the prayers of the Shepherds of Christ Associates
Handbook. They may spend the rest of the hour as they so choose.
I will use this new prayer movement within My Shepherds of Christ Ministries
in a powerful way to help in the renewal of My Church and the world. I will
give great graces to those who join this movement. The name, Apostles of the
Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, is to be given to this movement.
I am inviting My beloved Rita Ring to be coordinator for this activity.
I pour out the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief
Shepherd of the flock.
This is indeed a special calling for us to unite in one heart with His
Eucharistic Heart and pray for the following intentions:
- For the spread of the devotion to the Hearts of
Jesus and Mary culminating in the reign of the Sacred Heart and the
triumph of the Immaculate Heart.
- For the Pope.
- For all bishops of the world.
- For all priests.
- For all sisters and brothers in the religious life.
- For all members of the Shepherds of Christ
Movement, and for the spread of this movement to the world.
- For all members of the Catholic Church.
- For all members of the human family.
- For all souls in purgatory.
