Talking to God the Father
My dear Father I love You so very much. I love
You from the depth of my heart and I want the
world to do Your holy will.
Messenger: My dear God I
want to be wrapped in Your

I love God so much.)
My love for the Father and the Holy Spirit are
so great.
I am one with my beloved Jesus. I go to His Heart
and I dwell there.
I dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
Mary dwells most perfectly in Jesus' Heart.
I can be so one with my God: Father, Son and
Holy Spirit.
From the ecstasies I have had, I know this
place of deep ecstatic union with
God and I long for this for all eternity.
I want the deepest union with God for all
eternity.
I want to please Him.
I want to love Him here on earth as deeply
as possible.
God is love.
We were created to love Him.
We were told to love God and love each other.
To truly love God is to love each other.
My soul longs and thirst for God and I
identify with Our beloved Jesus in
wanting the salvation of souls.
My life is lived wanting all souls to go to
heaven.
Heaven is a place of deep union with
God and all others.
Heaven is a place where I will be wrapped in
endless love.
I will be completely satisfied in heaven.
I will know God.
I long for this deep knowledge of Him.
I long to be full in Him in heaven.
I long for completeness in God in heaven.
In all of my struggles here to love others
as He desires, to be as He wants me
to be, my desire is constantly to be
united to Him. My desire is to be possessed
by God in the deepest union possible
for all eternity.
This is my goal.
And with this I hear Him cry out "Bring
Me souls" and I want to help lead souls
to Him.
This mission of the Shepherds of Christ is

We cannot even afford to print the Blue Books,
Our first regard is always the Priestly Newsletter.
Most of all our efforts and money go to this.
second ) To begin prayer chapters praying
for the priests, the Church and the
world as instructed by Fr. Carter with
the prayers he was told to compile.

Messenger:
Fr. Carter really set up the Movement as
Jesus directed him.
The Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart
was begun from a message to Fr.
Carter. This is a very important part
of the movement.
Jesus told him -
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.
end of Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart message
April 32, 2002 message continues
Messenger: Read
the message over and over again and
look at what Jesus promised in
that message.
It is really powerful.
I wish now with the meetings in Rome, you
would begin this week praying for
the Pope and Cardinals and be
Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of
Jesus.
Soon I will attend Mass and go to Michigan
for a prayer meeting. I pray so deeply at Mass
to the Father, in the name of Jesus, united to Jesus
in the Mass, in the Holy Spirit through the
intercession of Mary, Our Mother, and all the
angels and saints and united to the souls in
purgatory. I pray so deeply united to the Mass
for the Pope and Cardinals and hierarchy
in the Church and bishops and all
priests and all souls on the earth, but
I keep this intention in my heart all day
uniting to the Masses going on around
the world.
I think it is important we all unite at
3:00 and say the Divine Mercy and plead and
beg for grace and mercy for the souls of this
earth.
Our God is so good to us
He is with us.
This is real.
God wants a personal union with us.
Oh God I love you so much.
God thank You for Your gifts.
I am so grateful that the Son of God is
truly present in the Holy Eucharist.
Oh Jesus I love You so much.

end of excerpt from February 15, 2002
February 7, 2002
To whom it may concern,
We circulate the Priestly Newsletter that goes to 75,000 priests in the world. This has been circulated since 1994 at the direction of Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. who had a doctorate in Theology and taught at Xavier University for over thirty years and author of eighteen books on the spiritual life and many other various publications.
Our primary purpose is to circulate this Newsletter. We are now sending three years of Newsletters in a book of 342 pages to 75,000 priests in the United States and 90 foreign countries. A special Newsletter is enclosed with Father Carter's powerful writing on Grace (2001 issue 1). This writing is also available on tape and on disc.
Our coequal purpose is to circulate prayer manuals Father Carter compiled for prayer chapters praying for the priests, the Church and
the world.All of our printing and postage costs so much money.
We operate from the Virgin Mary building in Clearwater, Florida, pictures are enclosed. We use the building to spread materials and rosaries
to encourage people to pray for the priests, the Church and the world.We also have a church we received from the diocese in China, Indiana where we distribute our materials and pray before the Blessed Sacrament hourly and about two hours or more at 6:20 every day. Monthly adoration before the exposed Eucharist is held for our members for 48 hours on the 12th of each month to the 14th.
We have a third center in Morrow, Ohio which is our communication center and mailing address.
We circulate rosaries handmade to Catholic schools all over the United States and meditation sheets and consecration cards. We try to send scapulars too when we have them. We supply many beads to our rosary makers for this.
We had difficulty all last summer securing funds for beads for our rosary makers. We were not able to send the 100,000 or more rosaries we usually send in October and May because of funds.
We need $10,000 every month for the loan on the Virgin Mary building. We pray nightly there usually for about two hours or more at 6:20. We pray all through the day there, hourly, many times before the image. A big prayer meeting is held on the 5th of the month. Prayers are prayed for about 4 hours for the priests, the Church and the world. We broadcast to at least 8 states and all join in the prayers, including Morrow and China.
We have a nursing home ministry and a prison ministry. We supply coloring books of the rosary mysteries and the Mass to children.
We desperately need funds for the printing and the rosary making operation and all the postage. Bishops from foreign countries beg for rosaries and prayer sheets with the Shepherds of Christ Prayers.
Now we are struggling with the monthly rent on the building and the postage for the foreign mailing of the Priestly Newsletter Book II.
We always need money for the rosary beads for the schools and the Virgin Mary building.
We also do a Holy Spirit Novena, but the little book has been out of print for some time because of lack of funds. Teachers like to use it for confirmation. We have prayer chapters using it daily all over the world.
We want to circulate pictures of the crucifix and Mary's image on the building, we are unable to do this because of lack of funds. Enclosed are pictures of the crucifix and the Virgin Mary building.
A very important part of our Movement is trying to get people to say the Morning Offering. Here is a card we distribute extensively, especially to Nursing Homes and school children.
Here is a short form of consecration to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary that we circulate extensively.
Can you help us. It is a real shame to not even have rent on the building Mary appears on.We need to tell the world about the Mass. This is another important aspect of our ministry. We have so many writings about the Mass. Mass Book I with the Imprimatur—and all Fr. Carter's writings and many other writings discerned by Fr Carter before his death.
It is a shame with all the money in the world not to be able to get the rosary beads to the rosary makers for school children who want them to pray the rosary.
Our movement is trying to do what Our Lady told us to do at Fatima for peace in the world.
Can you help us?
