Jesus speaks:    

                            My child

                                Seek the light —
                                Look for the light —
                                I come to you to bring you life —
                                I am the Light of the world —
                                A city in darkness is not seen —
                                Let your light shine to the world.

Mary speaks:    

                                O people of Jerusalem
                                Your Light has come
                                You miss the gifts given —
                                You search for rubble
                                And for gold before your eyes
                                You are like blindmen.

Jesus speaks:    

                            The night is a night of deep darkness
                                A candle in the night
                                Can shine like the noon-day sun
                                In that place

                            The Lady came —
                            The Lady clothed with the sun
                            And you did not recognize her —

                            God forgive us for our offences
                            Oh God we are sorry the window was destroyed
                            Oh God we are grateful for your gifts to us.

                            Oh God our hearts cry by day
                            And we lay awake at night asking
                            Why, God did they do this to the image of
                                Mary —
                            Oh Jesus they crowned You with thorns,
                                they whipped You —
                            Then they led you to a bitter death and
                                they killed You on the cross

                            Oh God you are the New Adam
                                Mary is the New Eve —
                            Oh God Mary stood beneath Your Cross
                                and her wounds did not show on
                                her body, but she suffered so
                            Oh God, they knocked out the face of
                                Mary
                                She was defaced —
                                They beat Your Head and the Blood ran
                                    down Your face
                                They pounded thorns in Your skull —
                                Your forehead bled

                            Oh God — the face is so important to our
                                body
                            Oh God — they used a sling-shot or something
                                as bad to knock out the precious
                                image the Father gave us
                            Oh God — my heart cries in pain and
                                anguish —

                            Oh now I will never see this face on my
                                internet —
                                When I came she was shinning —
                                She seemed to smile —
                                I felt the protective mantle of my Mother
                                I felt her gentle eyes —

                            Ever since she appeared — I have felt a
                                warmth of her presence with me
                                protecting me and loving me as my
                                mother —

                            Oh Jesus when Fr. Carter died my heart
                                ached, but I knew he was more
                                deeply connected to us in heaven —

                            Oh Jesus, because someone did this
                                to the face of the image doesn't 
                                change the fact Mary is 
                                still with us, but we have to
                                suffer the shattering of this gift — this
                                gift was given from God
                            Oh God I am so sorry for this.
                                  God I am sorry for our sins

The Five Blasphemies

There are five blasphemies against Mary. 

1. They are against her Immaculate Conception, 

2. against her virginity, 

3. against her as the Mother of God, 

4. against her images and statues, 

5. against her as mother of her children. 

Excerpt from the Mass Book

October 17, 1995

THE BLASPHEMIES TO MARY

Let me die in Christ. He was crucified. Let me offer myself as a sacrifice in the Mass with Him that I will rise to new life in Him. Through Him, With Him, and In Him.

All graces flow through Mary's heart. She is the Mediatrix for all grace. We must venerate her Immaculate Heart. She is the highest human person. She was created immaculate. He gives us a model to follow, one without sin. He raises her to such heights. She is His Mother.

By venerating her Immaculate Heart, we are recognizing the goodness of God, His love for His creatures and the heights to which He raises men. He raised Mary, a creature, to the Motherhood of God.

This shows us the dignity and honor He gives to men - He made Mary, a human person, the Mother of Jesus! He makes Mary the Mother of all men. He makes Mary the Mediatrix of all graces.

We are denying our own importance to God when we deny the fact that Mary was conceived without original sin. She is a human person. He so loved man that He created her spotless. Eve was without sin - Eve sinned; Mary is conceived immaculate - she is sinless - the new Eve.

The first blasphemy is against her Immaculate Conception. Mary's heart is pure, sinless. It is in her sinless heart, we can dwell deeply in His Heart. The devil has waged a war against Mary for he knows Mary is the gatekeeper of the Heart of Christ.

The second blasphemy:

Mary did not unite with a creature, she is the spouse of the Holy Spirit.

It is in this act, between Divinity and humanity, that the Son of God is born.

She is the spouse of the Holy Spirit. She is betrothed to Him.

The third blasphemy is against her as Mother of God. It is by loving through Mary's pure heart that we give great love to God. We want to love Him so much, in her pure heart, we love through her Immaculate Heart. We are sinners. She is sinless.

I understand her role as Mediatrix of all graces. He loves creatures so much He chooses Mary, a human person, to be the Mother of Jesus. She is the Mediatrix of all His graces.

To not recognize this is to not recognize the great dignity to which He has raised His creatures that He has chosen Mary to be the Mother of God. She is the Mediatrix of all graces. (We are not recognizing our own dignity if we do not recognize that Mary is given this great gift from God. This is how God loves His creatures).

God raises man to such heights that He creates him in His own image and likeness. Adam sinned against God; God is faithful to His promises. God sends a Redeemer to save man from their sins.

God enters the world in a human creature, Mary. By denying the Immaculate Heart of Mary, we are denying our own dignity and honor. God wishes us to venerate and make reparation to her Immaculate Heart - to do so is to see the great dignity and honor and love God has for His creatures.

She is the highest human person. She is the New Eve. She is conceived without original sin. She is a virgin, espoused to the Holy Spirit. She is the Mother of God. Her heart is invisibly pierced with a sword. She walks the Passion with our Lord.

To know Mary, to love her, to see her great dignity and honor, is to know His love for His creatures, to know more His love for us.

To hate Mary is to not recognize God's great love for us.

She is the highest, created, human person. She is our model. She is Mary, Immaculate, Mother of the human race. She is a human person and He raises her to all these heights. People who do not honor Mary do not understand the greatness which God has given to His beloved creatures. We miss the love God has for us.

It is to miss our own dignity and honor. He makes her the Mediatrix of all graces-all life flows through her. Man is united to God in her womb. Oh, holy, holy womb of Mary. Mary, Immaculate, conceived without sin, virgin, betrothed to the Holy Spirit.

It is the work of the devil to blaspheme Mary in her Immaculate Conception, virginity, and against her as Mother of God.

When I understand the great love God has for Mary, the great dignity and honor He gives to Mary, I understand more fully His great love for me. Mary is the highest human person. In recognizing Mary in her specialness to God, I recognize His specialness for me.

There are five blasphemies against Mary. They are against her Immaculate Conception, against her virginity, against her as the Mother of God, against her images and statues, against her as mother of her children. Some little children are taught ugly things about their heavenly Mother. Some little children are taught to hate her.

The rosary is the story of the love of God for His creatures. His love is perfectly communicated in the Persons of the Trinity. He wishes to share His love and goodness with man.

In giving such great dignity to Mary, God adds to the dignity of each of us. The devil has tried to divide men from their Mother. Some priests and religious do not honor Mary. Some members of the Church do not honor Mary. Not to honor Mary is not to properly recognize our own dignity. We do not recognize the heights to which God raises His creatures. She is the model. He gives to her the role as Mediatrix of all graces - as co-redemptrix, she shares in Jesus' role. She is so united to her Son.

The message of Fatima says this: God wishes the Immaculate Heart of Mary to be venerated next to His Sacred Heart. We must venerate her heart next to His. Her heart is so closely joined to His. Her heart is immaculate. She was conceived without sin. She is a virgin. All are to recognize the close union Jesus wants with His creatures. He came into this world with a Heart of deepest love. This is how God loved this world. Jesus' Heart is a symbol of this love. His Heart was formed in the womb of Mary. Jesus wants His Heart venerated with the heart of Mary. In this way, He shows His intense love for us, His creatures. He raises us to such heights. He is so closely linked with the highest human person. He wants His Heart venerated with His Mother's heart. His Mother's heart is the key to His Heart. This is our little heaven on earth. How could sinful men enter the Heart of Christ? We go to the heart of Mary, she is the sinless one. We give ourselves completely to her that we will be able to go to the deepest chamber of His Heart. Her heart is sinless.

To me, the message of Fatima is this: Here is God - Here is Man. God, in His goodness and love, creates man, and man sins against God. God so loves His creatures He comes into the world, His Heart formed in the womb of a creature.

Mary is the highest human person. To not recognize Mary, her Immaculate Heart, and the fact that she is a virgin, espoused to the Holy Spirit, is to miss a big link between God and His creatures. We cannot go deeply into His Heart unless we go through the sinless one, Mary. He made her a human person entirely sinless and pure. Divinity unites to humanity in the heart of Mary.

He wishes His Heart to be venerated next to hers because of His great love for us. To not recognize Mary is to miss our own dignity and honor and the love He has for us. We were created to know, love, and serve God. We are creatures - He is God.

Heaven is a gift given to us from the Supreme Being, God. We must realize that if we go to heaven it is because of His great love for us.

To not recognize Mary, her Immaculate Heart, the virgin birth, Mary as Mother of God, is to have pride in our hearts. We are creatures, He is our Creator. It is to not see the connection between God and man. Divinity is joined to humanity. God, the Son of God, becomes man. His Divinity is joined to our humanity in the Incarnation. She is the Mother of God!

She is a virgin (espoused to the Holy Spirit), and she is immaculate - conceived without sin.

God has entrusted to Mary the peace of the world. Mary appears at Fatima and tells us her peace plan. It is centered in 1. consecrating our hearts to Jesus and Mary, 2. the rosary, 3. first Saturday devotion, 4. making reparation to Their Hearts. If what Mary has asked for is observed, we will have peace. If she is ignored, we will not have peace.

In reparation, we give ourselves as a holy sacrifice at the Mass. We unite at Holy Communion in the deepest union with God and tell Him we want to help make reparation to His adorable Heart. This is a most pleasing offering to the Father. We want to help make reparation for the blasphemies against her heart. Whether the world has war or peace depends on Mary's peace plan.

In the Shepherds of Christ Movement, we are telling people about consecrating their hearts to Jesus and Mary. If enough people give their hearts to Jesus and Mary, we will have peace. Their hearts, then, will be hearts of love and will respond in love to all difficulties and turn to God. If most people do not respond to Mary's plan and remain bitter and hateful in their hearts, we will have war. The heart determines our actions. Hearts consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary are hearts of love. Hearts that are filled with bitterness and hatred will respond with hate and start wars.

It is a great gift to be called to be an apostle in the Shepherds of Christ Movement and spread His love to the world.

Mary said that until a sufficient number have consecrated their hearts to Jesus and Mary, we will not have peace in the world.

This is good news, we must try to spread this Movement to the world. Fr. Carter is reaching the priests in his spirituality newsletter. It is centered in consecrating the priests' hearts to Jesus and Mary.

We are reaching the sisters and brothers in a newsletter for religious, written by a sister and Fr. Carter. We have prayer chapters all over the world praying for priests and consecrating their hearts to Jesus and Mary. We have adult chapters and children chapters.

Jesus is my refuge and my life. It is in Him I live. His Mother is my Mother. She is the highest human person. How tenderly He loves His creatures that He gave to her the gift of becoming Mother of God. A creature becomes the Mother of God! It is in realizing this mystery more, I see His immense love for me.

He gives to Mary the gift of being born without sin. She is a human person. She is sinless.

She is our model, and she is our Mother. She is immaculate. He raises her to be so pure and holy. It is in blaspheming her that we are hurting ourselves for she is our beloved Mother. In blaspheming her, we do not realize the great dignity and honor that God raises man when He gives this great gift to her.

Notes: The most perfect sacrifice, the most efficacious prayer, is, of course, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass offered to God.

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.

December 5, 1996

Messenger:    I saw Him at the point of death on the cross December 5, 1996, after Mary appeared 500 times.

He hung, all battered, greatly weakened. His mouth moved very clearly. It seems that a man in His condition could not move His mouth to that extent.

Later in the rosary that night, He gave messages and said: "No one was listening."

Messenger:        In a rosary that night I got this message

Excerpt from Rosary on December 5, 1996:

Jesus speaks:  I am alive, I am alive. I am alive. My beloved ones, I show you My face. Do you see the body of a man? Do you see Me alive on the cross? I am speaking to you but the world does not hear. They do not hear the message that I deliver to them. You must pray fervently. You must come to Me that I can be one in you and that I can operate through you as you go into the world this day. I love you. I love you with the most tender love. I am Jesus. I am alive. You are My main soldiers that I will send into the world to lead the strayed ones to My Heart.

The days ahead will be dark days. You must come to My Heart and take shelter in My Heart. It is there that you will be rooted on a firm rock. For My Heart is your home. You will not know the terrors of the night if you stay rooted in My Heart.

Division is blackness in the heart. You must not be divided, divided from anyone. You must remain in union with all men. You must see yourselves as part of the Father's family. Each one of you is so important to the Father's plan.

Excerpt from the Mass Book

December 19, 1996

THERE IS A MAN ON THE CROSS

God wants union with us. He wants fire. Many try to love God with a cold heart. They tell Him words that they think they should say that are loving.

When one loves, they do not need to be prompted to say words. From the depth of their being they cry out their words of love. It is a cry from within, from the fire within their chest, behind the words. The words are burning in their chest and must be released because of the fire behind them.

We are as blind men. We do not see the great gifts that God gives to us. It is as if we stand by the shore of the sea and throw little words at Jesus. We must not be afraid to jump into the water and be completely immersed in His love. He was consumed with such love for us. He gave Himself to His death on the cross.

There is a man on a cross and he tells us so many things. He does not have to speak. When we study Him on the cross, He speaks to us with His pierced hands, His head covered with blood, His body withered and beaten. He speaks to us of His undying love.

Oh, beloved Savior, I am blind. I am selfish. I do not see the great reservoir of love that you give to Me. I see the man dying on the cross. How do I see Him? Do I see a figure and think, oh, is it a pretty cross, would it look good in my living room? Do I see the cross and think, oh, I guess I should have one in my house, others will think I am holy then? Holy people do have a cross in their homes.

Do I see the body of a man, a live man? Do I see His labored breath? Do I see His chest move as His Heart beats within? Do I see the real skin of a man? Do I see the real blood He shed? Do I see the light that silhouettes His withered body? Do I see the Light of the World? Do I see the tender skin of an infant laid on bare wood in the manager and then the torn, lacerated, bloodied skin of this man?

This is love! There is a man on the cross. There is a child born to us today. He is the Light of the World. His light is shining in the darkness, but people do not see. They see the wood, but they view it for the beauty it will create in their newly decorated living rooms.

The cross is not a thing of the past, the cross is with us today. We carry it on our backs as He showed us we would, but we try to take it off and throw it away.

It is in the cross there is the resurrection. It is by meditating on the crucifix, we see His undying love. We must open up our eyes and see. Pray for vision to see clearly the man Who gave Himself for love of us, Our Divine Lord.

And how do we return His love?

Love is spontaneous, love is fire in our hearts, love is alive and emitted with force. God is love.

Do we realize that His last thoughts on the cross were for us. In this agony, as He hung on the cross, He was consumed with burning love for us. When He was scourged at the pillar, He was comforted by our acts of love that we give to Him today. Our burning love for Him was sweetness to His most Sacred Heart in the moments of His bitter Passion.

Love gives and wants to give its all. A person in love does not need to be prompted and told to love. Love wants to give.

Love is given spontaneously, it is not controlled. Love is tenderness pouring forth from the heart. Love is not concerned with commitment, love by itself is committed. It pours forth from the mouth of the lover because of the fire burning deep inside.

Let us study the battered body of Christ on the cross. As I study His pierced hands and feet, His head crowned with thorns, the blood pouring forth from His Heart, as I view the lacerations covering His body, I feel His word well up in my heart. He speaks to me in the depth of my soul and I hear Him say, "I love you. I love you. I love you, to My death on the cross."

He gives, He gives, He gives to us constantly. He gives and how is He treated by us? We take and we take and we take and we don't even say thanks. Thanks for our breath, our heartbeat, the beautiful sky, the sunlit day, the moon at night, the beautiful eyes of our friends. Oh, how many things He gives to us and how ungrateful we are!

How is your day? Is your glass half-empty or half-full?

How often my glass is half empty, as I am reminded by my spiritual director, Fr. Carter. How often I do not thank Our Divine Lord for His gifts!

When I am filled with love, I see more clearly. The secret is to know God's love. We must pray for the grace to know His love more and for the grace to love Him more.

There is a man on the cross. Do we see His undying love for us? He speaks no words. He shows us the crucifix. The words are alive in our hearts.

The Father created us to love and to be loved. God is love. He wants union with us. He gives Himself to us. This is love. There is union in proportion to how I give myself to Him.

Jesus gives and gives and gives and we treat Him "nonchalantly". He gives us love, but we must give ourselves to Him to have union with Him. He wants us to be one with Him.

We must relish the great gifts He gives to us - the greatest gift being the gift of Himself. We should anticipate the great gift of receiving Him in the Holy Eucharist with such eagerness in our hearts. The words I feel in my heart are expressed in the song, "I Love You, Jesus":

Oh Burning Heart, Oh Love divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the host, I know You're here to love and care for me. I know Your love a little now, so dear You are to me. Come give me life, abundant life, I thirst to be with Thee. I cannot say. There are not words to say what my heart feels. I love You so, I scarce can breathe when You come into me. I know Your love a little now, so dear You are to me. Come give me life, abundant life, I thirst to be with Thee. Your tender Heart, Oh how it beats for love of each this day. I want to give You all my love, surrender totally. I know Your love a little now, so dear You are to me. Come give me life, abundant life, I thirst to be with Thee.

When we awake at night, we must think of Him and how we will receive Him the next day. We long to go to Communion to receive Him. We love Jesus in the Eucharist so much. A King comes to us. He enters our body and unites with our soul. He is the King of the kingdom of heaven…He is our Lover, He is the Almighty God, a Divine Person, and He comes to us. He wants us to come to Him with such longing. He wants us to think of Him all day. He wants us to long for Him.

Ps. 63:1-8:

God, you are my God, I pine for you;
my heart thirsts for you,
my body longs for you,
as a land parched, dreary and waterless.
Thus I have gazed on you in the sanctuary,
seeing your power and your glory.
Better your faithful love than life itself;
my lips will praise you.
Thus I will bless you all my life,
in your name lift up my hands.
All my longings fulfilled as with fat and rich foods,
a song of joy on my lips and praise in my mouth.
On my bed when I think of you,
I muse on you in the watches of the night,
for you have always been my help;
in the shadow of your wings I rejoice;
my heart clings to you,
your right hand supports me.

The priest says in the Mass at the Offertory, "By the mystery of this water and wine may we come to share in the Divinity of Christ, Who humbled himself to share in our humanity." He gives Himself to us. He shares His Divinity with us. We are human creatures and He shares Himself with us. My heart burns when the priest puts the drop of water in the wine. This is, indeed, a great mystery that God remains with us today, truly present in His Divinity and humanity in the Holy Eucharist, that He gives Himself to us in Communion, and that He waits for us to come to the tabernacle and be with Him. He wants to outpour His divine love and His divine life to us.

We should swoon for our Lover the Almighty, Divine God, yet we go to Him with such cold hearts. He wants our burning love.

The song "I Love You, Jesus":

Oh Burning Heart, Oh Love divine, how sweet You are to me. I see the Host, I know You're here to love and care for me. I know Your love a little now, so dear You are to me. Come give me life, abundant life, I thirst to be with Thee. I cannot say. There are not words to say what my heart feels. I love You so, I scarce can breathe when You come into me. I know Your love a little now, so dear You are to me. Come give me life, abundant life, I thirst to be with Thee. Your tender Heart, Oh how it beats for love of each this day. I want to give You all my love, surrender totally. I know Your love a little now, so dear You are to me. Come give me life, abundant life, I thirst to be with Thee.

Excerpt from the rosary of August 19, 1997

Jesus:  Come away with Me, My young ones. Come into the field and taste of the beauty of the air and the beauty of this day with the most beautiful flowers that I have created for you. Do you see the beauty in each petal of the flower, or are your eyes covered with mud that you do not see? I have lifted the veil for you today and I have showed you My way. My way is the way of trust and faith and I told you in the message on Sunday that you must have faith and endurance, for I took you to the darkest night to the pointiest tunnel, to the place where you thought that you would never return and at that point I opened up through a little hole the light of day and it came streaming in and you perceived and you felt My presence, which is greater than all the things of this earth.

    Wipe the grin off your face you silly earth, for you have ran after so many foolish things, when I stood there adorned in white before you, in the most glorious robes and you did not perceive that the Almighty God was alive and so I have called and I have told you and I have allowed you, My shepherds, to suffer, but the days ahead will be days of great victory, for I come to you clothed in white and adorned in a gold veil and you see that God lives and you will carry the white flag across this earth. You My shepherds, have won and the victory is yours.

    Did you fall in the mud and did you skin your knees, did you feel your head ache as Mine ached in the garden, did you feel the thorns poke deeply into your skull, and did you feel the ripping of your flesh as the sword went into your skin?

    I am Jesus, I am God, I will not be undone. I am Almighty and all powerful to the ends of the earth. You will know My might and you will not be afraid, but you will not know this if you do not trust, for I have told you the secrets in My messages, but you do not read as if you believe, you read half heartedly. You must believe with all your heart that I speak to you to be heard, for you truly are the shepherds that will go across this earth and carry the white flag, but you do not have this conviction within your heart, so therefore you do not do all that I have asked you to do, your belief is wishy-washy and you do not believe with a conviction of a strong heart.

    I am calling you My shepherds this night to renew your faith and your endurance to realize that I am God and I have spoken here to you this evening. I am alive, I am alive, I am alive and I am with you, I am your God.

    You wanted the light all the time and the light was not in the plan of the Father. It comes in light and it comes in darkness, it comes in death and it comes in victory, it comes in death and it comes in Resurrection, it comes in pain, and it comes in joy, but this world tells you today to look for only the joy and when you do not find it to do everything that you can to fill your selfish pleasurish whims that you have within you.

    I tell you that you must fall to your knees, that your knees will be scuffed and that you will suffer and your flesh will be torn and your head will be crowned with thorns, but you will come forth from the tomb with a veil of white across your face and you will say this is the victory that we have won because we have lived in Him.

Jesus: Your Movement will spread forth to the far ends of the earth, but it is faith that I am calling you to My beloved ones, you must have faith in your hearts, for this is a sign that I give to you this day. If you do not believe, you will not be able to continue ahead, for you must move ahead in faith. It is the only way that you must operate. You cannot operate trying to logically think your way across this world. It is only in believing and obeying the messages that the job will get done. It is My might that will lead this Movement to the far corners of the earth. Open your pockets and let us see your money. Do you have the money to do the things that I have asked you to do? It is in prayer, hourly prayer and begging for the funds, realizing that it is in your prayer, that it is in your endurance, that it is in your faith and your sacrifices that your prayers will be answered. You must pray hourly the Novena to the Infant of Prague and I will answer your prayers, and you My beloved ones will know the results when you pray.

Song: This is Holy Ground

Jesus: I have given to you the greatest gift this day. I am Jesus, and I have come to you and I have asked you to open wide your heart and to thank Me for the gift I have given, for if the answer would have been different how would your hearts be this night, and how was it with the lepers, when I gave to them the great gift and they did not come and say thanks, but you are My holy ones that I am sending into this world and your hearts must be filled with joy. I have asked you over and over again to sing to Me with a heart that is filled with joy. I have given to you songs that I wrote Myself for you to sing of the love of My Heart. I am Jesus, the Son of God and you are the apostles of this new era. As you go out into the dark night the light will shine behind you and many will know the light of My Heart. Do not be discouraged, for the very hairs of your head are numbered and I am with you at this very moment, guarding and watching you, give Me your heart My shepherds. I have given to you a great gift this day, give Me your thanks and continue to pray. It is through prayer that you will accomplish all that the Father intends you to accomplish.

    I am Jesus, the Son of God. I have chosen you, I have called you and you will accomplish the work that the Father intends you to through prayer. Do not be discouraged, but encouraged for I am God and I am with you. Think of how it was before, when you did not share your love with so many others, but I have given you each other and I have bound your hearts in one heart and you come here because your hearts are filled with great joy. The more you love and the more the Movement spreads, the more will be the blessings, for as the love expounds and gets larger, the love is more full, for your love is rooted in Me and the more you love deeply the more full the love you will have. This is how it will be, one body in Me, and you will love many and you will know them deeply in your heart and your heart is full My shepherds, because I have taught you My ways of love and given you each other. You are My holy family and I love you. I have called you and so you say “why me?”, and I say to you “why this Saint, or that Saint or why the Blessed Mother, why were you called?”. You were called because I love you and I have given to you a great grace to be My shepherd in the Shepherds of Christ Movement.

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.
