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.

Messenger: On September 7, 2000 I was sent to 
                     Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center
                     to take the following pictures
                     of Mary.


Excerpt from September 9, 2000 Daily Message

Messenger: Taken September 7, 2000, as directed by our Lady.     

   

Messenger: These two pictures were taken at the same time around noon, September 7, 2000, as requested by Our Lady so they would appear on the Internet.

Both were taken with the same camera with the same automatic camera setting of the same Sorrowful Mother statue at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center.

One picture has a golden light.

This is the statue that she appeared in daily for 14 months, July 5, 1994 to September 5, 1995.

(End of excerpt from September 9, 2000 Daily Message)


Messenger: On September 8, 2000 the Birthday of Our Lady
                         Father Carter would say his last
                         Mass in China, Indiana.

                     On September 22, 2000 they opened him up
                         and I only saw him several times
                         before he died.

                     He kept constant contact with me by
                         fax and phone and directed
                         me what to do to continue the
                         mission.

                     His valor to be at the Masses in
                        China, Indiana, all summer when
                         he was sick shows how
                         much he knew the significance
                         of the Masses there.

                     He continued saying Mass in China, Indiana,
                 driving in a car 1 1/2 hours each way to
                 say the Mass there.

                     In the Daily Messages to come we will
                 include the last homilies given by
                 Father Carter in China, Indiana at
                 Mass.

                     I knew the day was special for I 
                 was sent there to Our Lady of the
                 Holy Spirit Center September 7, 2000 at 12:00
                 to take the pictures. It was for Mary's birthday.
                 I was instructed to do so and put the pictures on the 
                 Internet on September 8, 2000.

                     One picture looked like a statue, 
                 the other picture looked like Mary
                 was real.

                     This statue was the statue Mary appeared
                 in daily from July 5, 1994 until September 5, 1995.

                     Father was so sick he couldn't go to class Thursday
                 night. I couldn't believe he was going to China to
                 say Mass on Mary's birthday, but he walked
                 so slow up the driveway with his little white bags
                 Melanie had given him with his chalice in one
                 and his banana in the other and I
                 couldn't believe he could even say the Mass.

                     These homilies are on tape, not yet ready
                  for distribution.

                     Today we present the last homily
                  Father Carter gave at Mass in China, Indiana
                  only months before he died.


Father Carter's Homliy - September 8, 2000

Matthew 1:18-23

Joseph adopts Jesus as his son

This is how Jesus Christ came to be born. His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph; but before they came to live together she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. Her husband Joseph, being an upright man and wanting to spare her disgrace, decided to divorce her informally. He had made up his mind to do this when suddenly the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, ‘Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because she has conceived what is in her by the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son and you must name him Jesus, because he is the one who is to save his people from their sins.’ Now all this took place to fulfil what the Lord had spoken through the prophet:

Look! the virgin is with child
    and will give birth to a son
whom they will call Immanuel,

a name which means ‘God–is–with–us’.


We notice that the Church in Her liturgy for the celebration of the birthday, the Birth of Mary, immediately puts her with Jesus:

"She will give birth to a son and you must name him Jesus, because he is the one who is to save his people from their sins." (Mt 1:21) – words from today's Gospel.

And so the Church reminds us that Mary was born for the sake of Jesus. Again, in celebrating her birth, the Church links her very, very directly with Jesus. Yes, this is the reason for her birth: to be Mother of Jesus, and in doing that, everything else about her takes its proper place.

And just as Mary was dedicated entirely to Jesus and to His cause, we in giving her a birthday present of the highest value can only promise her, "Mary, as you were completely dedicated to Jesus, help me be completely dedicated to Him. You were His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ."


Messenger: This picture was taken at the beginning of the
                            prayer service
                            March 5, 2001
                            before the image.

                      I took it as directed.

                      This picture was taken during the 
                        rosary March 5, 2001 - 
   
                     Jesus appeared all through 
                        the rosary.

Messenger: Picture taken March 22, 2001 -
                      it was 3 months after Father's funeral
                      Jesus gave me a special direction to
                        pray the rosary that night.

                     Mary leads us to Jesus - 

                     Look at the pictures from 
                        March 22, 2001 - 
                        3 months since Father's funeral  
  
      

Messenger: The day before the rosary March 22, 2001
                        when we arrived in Florida we

                        got the following picture.
        
                               

The rainbow looks like an arc

Messenger: Mary is the
                        ARK of the Covenant

                     Here are messages I received
                        September 6, 1995 and September 7, 1995
                        when I went on retreat and Father
                        Carter was guiding me on 
                        that retreat, it was from 
                        St. Ignatius Spiritual Exercises.


Messenger: In a special message from Our Lord at the College of Mt. St. Joseph Convent, I had a vision of Him dressed in gold by the side of the altar.

He gave me the following message. Included is an excerpt from that message. He wished me to speak to the sisters and the priests.

This is part of what He said.

From my notebook September 7, 1995, at the Convent Chapel, Mt. St. Joseph, before the exposed Eucharist and a vision of Our Lord.

QUOTE from my notebook:       

          9-6-95
          Messenger:
Whatever you ask of God, God will give you.

          Jesus: I call you to speak .... you have a mouth, use it.

9-7-95
He said "I call you to speak. Do not hold back. I am sending you into the desert. Carry nothing on your back, go as I command you. Free yourself of all worldly attachments and speak. I speak through you. I will touch the cold hearts through your speech. Do not hold back -- souls are at stake."

Messenger: I had a vision of Jesus standing to the left of the altar, His halo around His head. There was a lot of gold, His arms outstretched.

He asked me to carry the rosaries to this world. (He referred to the meditations.)

Through Him, with Him, and in Him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit.

He has asked me to carry the rosaries to the world.

I am your servant, Lord. It is no longer I who live, but He Who lives in Me. Give to me abundant graces to live only for Thee, to be only as You want me to be, to surrender my all for Thee so I can truly say, "In fact, through the Law I am dead to the Law so that I can be alive to God. I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me…" (Ga. 2:19-20)

Do We See the Hearts

                     Look at big picture of Jesus
                        February 5, 2001  

Messenger: Hear Jesus say
                        "I want you to love Me,
                         My Heart is on fire for
                         LOVE of you"

Messenger: This heart is from the front
                        of the Blue Book II.

                     Jesus gave me this vision of
                        His Heart December 17, 1991
                        5 years before Mary
                        appeared on the
                        building December 17, 1996.


December 17, 1991, His Burning Heart

Messenger: I was alone in All Saints Church after Mass and Communion in front of the tabernacle when I saw the Sacred Heart. It was red around the outside, then a layer of yellow and then the brightest light in the center. I felt heat and it looked like an open furnace.

I thought about it all day and it instantly gave me peace and warmth in my heart. This is the purpose of these letters, to draw hearts to the ardent on-fire love of Jesus. I received the following message that day: Open your heart to the fire of God's love. He is ablaze in your heart. He wants to dwell in you and love you and others through you. Love God, yourself, and one another and experience the fire set aglow in your heart and experience the warmth of His love.


Jesus speaks: I am alive, I am alive, I am alive,
                         I love you so much.

                         Why does Mary appear on the building in Florida?

                         She appears to lead you to
                             My 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

                 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

          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

Sorrowful MotherMary'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 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


         

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.

    Rosary Books and the
    prayers my Son gives to you.
