Jesus: My dear people,

    Today March 22, 2012, I want you to make available the statues: Our Lady of Fatima and Our Lady of Guadalupe with the glass, so people will honor Mary and pray the prayers as I have requested before the statue praying for the priests, the Church and the world.

    Pray the prayers before the statues with glass for healings and blessings for your family, for your country, for the Church and the world. I promise special graces to those praying these prayers, and graces drawing them closer to My Heart and My Mother's heart. I want all to know My Mother's love as their mother. Put the statues with the glass in your homes and Churches, your schools and places of businesses and pray these prayers given to Fr. Carter, S.J., founder of Shepherds of Christ, in the prayer manual for the priests, the Church and the world. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock.

Fr. Carter before the statue.

prayed all over the earth.

I am Our Lady of Clearwater for all these years, I have appeared
to tell you, as the Mother of All and Queen of Peace that God
the Father wants this devotion to Our 2 Hearts —

Listen to Him and pray these prayers —
Begin them in the Churches —
Look at the threats you are suffering —
Pray as Jesus told Fr. Carter

Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:

"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.

"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.

"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,

Mary:
You are being threatened more than you know with the
     religious freedom issues. My children abortion is
     wrong. Now this — pray these prayers before My statue
     with the glass, pray fervently — God will help you —
     I am Mary, Queen of Peace, Our Lady of Clearwater
     I crush the head of satan with my heal.

                April 26, 2012

                R. I want to think correctly, positively
                so I don't make trouble for myself
                with fear —

                Acting in fear can be an anxiousness
                    that causes us undue trouble.

                I pray that I will not be filled
                    with fears that are not even
                    true.

                Fear cripples —
                Fear can rob us of peace and joy.

                The angel told Mary - not to
                    fear.

                We can be consumed with old
                    negative, hurtful thinking —
                    I pray I don't give into
                    these bad habits, expecting
                    the worst —

                We need to have courage and face problems
                    courageously — not go back to
                    old weak habits of thinking
                    negatively —

                    We must turn to God and pray for
                    grace to think positively!!
                    To work out problems in strength
                    and love depending on God —
                    We can think terrible things
                    that will never happen and
                    work ourselves up over it.

                    Deal with the problem —
                    Don't expect the worse.

 

Today's Readings

Acts 8: 26-40

    The angel of the Lord spoke to Philip saying, 'Set out at noon and go along the road that leads from Jerusalem down to Gaza, the desert road.' So he set off on his journey. Now an Ethiopian had been on pilgrimage to Jerusalem; he was a eunuch and an officer at the court of the kandake, or queen, of Ethiopia; he was her chief treasurer. He was now on his way home; and as he sat in his chariot he was reading the prophet Isaiah. The Spirit said to Philip, 'Go up and join that chariot.' When Philip ran up, he heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and asked, 'Do you understand what you are reading?' He replied, 'How could I, unless I have someone to guide me?' So he urged Philip to get in and sit by his side. Now the passage of scripture he was reading was this:

    Like a lamb led to the slaughter-house,
    like a sheep dumb in front of its shearers,
    he never opens his mouth.
    In his humiliation
        fair judgement was denied him.
    Who will ever talk about his descendants,
    since his life on earth has been cut short?

    The eunuch addressed Philip and said, 'Tell me, is the prophet referring to himself or someone else?' Starting, therefore, with this text of scripture Philip proceeded to explain the good news of Jesus to him.

    Further along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, 'Look,is some water; is there anything to prevent my being baptised?' He ordered the chariot to stop, then Philip and the eunuch both went down into the water and he baptised him. But after they had come up out of the water again Philip was taken away by the Spirit of the Lord, and the eunuch never saw him again but went on his way rejoicing. Philip appeared in Azotus and continued his journey, proclaiming the good news in every town as far as Caesarea.

 

Psalm 66: 8-9, 16-17, 20

Nations, bless our God,
let the sound of his praise be heard;
he brings us to life
and keeps our feet from stumbling.

Come and listen, all who fear God,
while I tell what he has done for me.

To him I cried aloud,
high praise was on my tongue.

    Blessed be God
    who has not turned away my prayer,
    nor his own faithful love from me.

 

John 6: 44-51

‘No one can come to me
unless drawn by the Father who sent me,
and I will raise that person up
    on the last day.
It is written in the prophets:
They will all be taught by God;
everyone who has listened to the Father,
and learnt from him,
comes to me.
Not that anybody has seen the Father,
except him who has his being from God:
he has seen the Father.
In all truth I tell you,
everyone who believes has eternal life.
I am the bread of life.
Your fathers ate manna in the desert
and they are dead;
but this is the bread
    which comes down from heaven,
so that a person may eat it and not die.
I am the living bread
    which has come down from heaven.
Anyone who eats this bread 
    will live for ever;
and the bread that I shall give
is my flesh, for the life of the world.’

       

                R. We are to die to our selfish ways to live the life
                    of resurrection —

                Death/Resurrection

                A constant renewal as we live our lives —
                A life of conversion —

                God has called us to be thankful for all we
                    have been given —

                Jesus has given us Himself in the Eucharist —
                We are to adore Jesus in the Eucharist —

                Thursday was always a hard day for me —

                When I was receiving the Parents and Children's
                    Rosary Book
   

                R. It was a hard day until that prayer meeting
                    with the youth to receive the rosaries
                    in the book —

                I felt as Thursday nights began a trial —
                    today I read that the Church traditionally
                    associated Thursday's with the Blessed Sacrament
                    and the Last Supper —

                Jesus today on Thursday tells us
                    "I am the bread of life"

                So let us remember the Last Supper and
                    the Eucharist on Thursdays if the
                    day has temptations and trials - think
                    of the gift of the Eucharist —
   

                R. There is special devotion Jesus has asked
                    for on Friday's between 12:00 and 3:00 —
                    He has told us to pray at these times —

 

                From Blue Book 7

                April 21, 1995 - 3:00a.m. Friday

Pray at 3:00

                R. Waken with terrible cramps in my feet and legs, especially left leg, pulling up from my feet.

                Jesus: Pray for souls, My beloved at this 3 o'clock
                hour, I beg you from My pierced and
                wounded Heart to pray for the souls.

                Pray for the souls in purgatory. I
                beg you My beloved, souls will be lost
                and condemned to hell. Pray at 3 o'clock,
                this is the hour of My greatest mercy.
                How I suffered for My dear ones and
                they were rebellious and willful
                sinning mortally and not repenting.
                I call you at the 3 o'clock hour to pray
                the Divine Mercy, morning and night
                whenever possible, to stop what you
                are doing and call on My Father to
                pour out His mercy at this hour. Meditate
                on My Passion. Blood and Water poured
                fourth from My side, I give to you My
                Church, pray for the priest and all
                those who minister in the Church,
                pray at the 3 o'clock hour, pray the
                Divine Mercy Chaplet, beg the Father
                for Mercy, this is the hour of My greatest mercy,
                pray for mercy for the souls of your
                brothers, those that are lukewarm, those
                that are suffering and in pain for their own
                willfulness, those who resist the light
                I give to them. Pray My beloved ones for it
                is at 3 o'clock I pour out My great
                mercy to souls.

                "For the sake of His sorrowful passion have
                    mercy on us and on the whole world."

                Read December 18, 1993 explain it and
                Say the Divine Mercy. 

                Meditate on My passion if only for a few moments
                during this hour. Meditations on the Rosary from
                Ash Wednesday


                February 16th last year
                March 14p. 160-161
                February 23, 1994  I Died for You.

                R. Jesus died, He has risen, He sends us now into
                    the world to be His Apostles to spread
                    the Good News. Pray to the Spirit to Sanctify
                    us and transform us from fear to fearlessness,
                    this is our mission. He ascended into heaven
                    He has given us His life, we carry out His
                    life, death and resurrection this
                    day in our lives and in the Church. Mary
                    is our Mother, she mothers us and
                    mothers the Church.

                R. Tomorrow we have the discourse of the
                    Bread of Life in the Gospel —
                    Jesus tells His followers we must eat His flesh —
                    Jesus tells His followers we must drink His blood

                We see the gift God gives us in Mass —

                Jesus tells us of His love in the giving
                    of Himself in the Eucharist in the
                    Blue Books

Blue Book 6C

  

                R. We see the death of Saul and his old ways
                    to live the life of resurrection in the
                    first reading on Friday

                Being a Christian for the people at the
                    beginning of the Church was not just
                    a name —
                    They lived being a Christian -- following
                        Christ —

                Let us not be a Christian in name only,
                    but a witness to what that means —
                    to be a Christian —

   

Colossians 2: 12

You have been buried with him by your baptism; by which, too, you have been raised up with him through your belief in the power of God who raised him from the dead.  

   

                R. We see the faith of Peter and the others —
                We see them working miracles —

                Those who did not believe in the Eucharist
                    left —

                The Eucharist is the    summit of       
                    the Church's life.

                Oh Jesus I love the Eucharist.
                I love You with all my heart —
                I want You to feed me, Jesus.
                I am hungry, I hunger after Thee.
                I am a sinner, I am tense, I
                    want to rest in Thee, my beloved Jesus.

                I want to adore You in the Eucharist.
                I want to receive You.
                I thirst after You, my God.
                I long for Thee.

   

John 17: 20-21

    I pray not only for these
    but also for those
    who through their teaching
    will come to believe in me.
    May they all be one,
    just as, Father, you are in me
       and I am in you,
    so that they also may be in us,
    so that the world may believe
    it was you who sent me.

   

                R. With this time of year comes Easter joy!
                Oh God, lift our hearts to Thee —
                The Risen Lord is with us NOW!!
                The Victory is won —
                We must live in Him —

   

Romans 6: 9

We know that Christ has been raised from the dead and will never die again.

   

                R. It was an exciting time for the disciples
                    of Jesus as they preached and traveled
                    and men were converted —
                        men were baptized —
                        the Church grew!!

                We remember Jesus the Good Shepherd —

   

 

John 10: 11-15

I am the good shepherd:
the good shepherd lays down his life
   for his sheep.
The hired man,
   since he is not the shepherd
and the sheep do not belong to him,
abandons the sheep
as soon as he sees a wolf coming,
   and runs away,
and then the wolf attacks
   and scatters the sheep;
he runs away
   because he is only a hired man
and has no concern for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd;
I know my own
and my own know me,
just as the Father knows me
and I know the Father;
and I lay down my life for my sheep.

    

                R. This scripture was at the beginning of every
                    Priestly Newsletter Fr. Carter did.

                Jesus protects
                Jesus loves us

                Jesus is the Good Shepherd — we see Him as
                    strong and courageous

   

Revelation 19: 6-7

And I heard what seemed to be the voices of a huge crowd, like the sound of the ocean or the great roar of thunder, answering, ‘Alleluia! The reign of the Lord our God Almighty has begun; let us be glad and joyful and give glory to God, because this is the time for the marriage of the Lamb.

   

                R. Oh my Lord and my God, I love Thee —

                Give us living waters — Oh My God

   

Psalm 27: 4-6

One thing I ask of Yahweh, 
    one thing I seek: 
to dwell in Yahweh’s house 
    all the days of my life, 
to enjoy the sweetness of Yahweh, 
    to seek out his temple.

For he hides me away under his roof
    on the day of evil,
he folds me in the recesses of his tent,
    sets me high on a rock.

                        Now my head is held high
                            above the enemies who surround me;
                        in his tent I will offer
                            sacrifices of acclaim.

 

                R. Let me be protected by Thee my God —

                Thank You for the gift of the waters in this
                    world —
                    for drinking,
                    for life,
                    for beauty
                    for peace —

                Oh God I thirst after You —
   

John 10: 22-30

    It was the time of the feast of Dedication in Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was in the Temple walking up and down in the Portico of Solomon. The Jews gathered round him and said, ‘How much longer are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us openly.’ Jesus replied:

    I have told you, but you do not believe.
    The works I do in my Father’s name
        are my witness; but you do not believe,
     because you are no sheep of mine. The sheep that belong to me
         listen to my voice; 
    I know them and they follow me. I give them eternal life; 
    they will never be lost
    and no one will ever steal them
        from my hand.
    The Father, for what he has given me,
        is greater than anyone,
    and no one can steal anything 
        from the Father’s hand.
    The Father and I are one.

   

                R. Yesterday was the Feast of St. Mark

                    Mark is the shortest Gospel —
                    St. Mark wrote for St. Peter —

                We are to live the Gospel message in our lives

                Like yesterday's Gospel
   

Mark 16: 15-20

And he said to them, ‘Go out to the whole world; proclaim the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptised will be saved; whoever does not believe will be condemned. These are the signs that will be associated with believers: in my name they will cast out devils; they will have the gift of tongues; they will pick up snakes in their hands and be unharmed should they drink deadly poison; they will lay their hands on the sick, who will recover.’ 

    And so the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven; there at the right hand of God he took his place, while they, going out, preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word by the signs that accompanied it.

 

Psalm 67: 8-9, 20

the earth rocked,                                     Pause
the heavens pelted down rain at the presence of God,
at the presence of God, the God of Israel.
 
God, you rained down a shower of blessings,
when your heritage was weary you gave it strength.
 
This God of ours is a God who saves;
from Lord Yahweh comes escape from death;

   

                R. We need help the way the world is being attached.

                There is a battle of evil and good in this world —

                Mary appeared our Lady of Clearwater.

                R. Here is a message she gave.

December 19, 1996 

Mary: My dear children, I give to you, my Son, Jesus, born in a stable in Bethlehem on Christmas morn. He is the Almighty God, the Light of the World.

    I appear to you, my children, on a (former) bank in Florida. You have made money your god! Do you know how cold are your hearts? You turn away from my Son, Jesus, for your money. Your money is your god.

    I am Mary, your Mother. I do not appear as I once appeared to you. I am asking you today to circulate my message given on a tape on the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, December 12, 1996. Please circulate this tape now. Give it to as many people as you can. I am Mary, your Mother. Please circulate my Rosary Book.

end of December 19, 1996

   

                R. Jesus gave me this message and appeared.

   

                Given April 21, 2012

                Message from Jesus!

                R. Jesus appeared in the most
                    beauteous light — radiant
                    faces — I cannot explain —

                Jesus speaks:

                    I wish the Sacred Heart Statues
                with the glass in all homes
                and My Mother's statue with
                glass. She is the Queen of Peace.

                    I am faithful to My Promises.

                    I promise to bring down great
                graces for all praying the
                prayers before the statue —
                Healing graces —
                graces in abundance for families —
                I want this devotion to the Sacred Heart
                and Immaculate Heart in homes.

                May is the month of Mary
                June the month of the Sacred Heart —

                I wish Blue Book 7 printed immediately —
                Now that Fr. Joe's homilies have
                gone to about 30,000 priests
                and 28 states in the United States it is
                necessary to reprint the book
                for the remaining states right
                away —

                Begin praying for donations and soliciting
                funds for this and reaching the remaining
                states in these troubled times —

                    Do you not see with the Acts of
                the Apostles that God is faithful
                to His promise —

                    Have you understood this —
                    Have you understood the
                        fulfillment of the prophesies?
                    Have you understood this in
                        these days in the scriptures?
                    God is faithful to His Promise!!


                Blue Book 7

                Introduction from the Author

                    Jesus wants us to grow in the
                mystical life.

                    The Father, Son and Holy Spirit live
                in the graced baptized soul.

                    Jesus wants us to be united to the Mass
                all day in the Morning Offering.

                    The Mass is the Sacrifice of Calvary,
                sacramentally made present —

                    We pray united to the sacrifice of
                Jesus in the Mass, to the Father, in the
                Holy Spirit, through the powerful intercession
                of Mary, with the angels and saints and
                the souls in purgatory, united to
                the other members in the Church.
                We pray to love God and all others, including
                ourselves as God wants. We pray
                for the priests, the Church and the world —

                We beg for grace —
                We adore God —
                We love God
                We thank God and
                We want to help make reparation for our
                    sins —

                end of excerpt

 

                R. We need to get a Mary statue and Jesus statue
                    in our homes —
                    Jesus and Mary told us to put the glass from her
                        image head in the statues and to
                        tell people to pray the Shepherds of Christ
                        Prayers with devotion to Jesus and Mary.

                R. God wants us to be holy
                God called us in the Shepherds of Christ to help renew the
                    Church and the world.

                We must self discipline ourselves —
                    ask for Jesus' help and Mary's help to be holy —
                    consecrate our homes, ourselves to the
                    Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart

                We are to love and control our self-centeredness,
                    not give into "pity-pot feelings".

                The Blessed Mother helps us

                R. Mary is our spiritual Mother —

                Mary is all pure —
                Mary has an Immaculate Heart —
                We go to the Heart of Mary —
                We want to be living in greater faith,
                    hope and love —

                Dying to unruly passions — anger, jealousy,
                    condescending ways, envy.

                What does God want me to do —
                How can I be a virtuous person —

                Giving myself to the Sacred Heart and
                    to Mary's Immaculate Heart —

                Consecrating myself with these prayers to
                    the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart —

                We pray to the Holy Spirit to sanctify us —

                Giving ourselves to Mary and asking the Holy Spirit
                    to form us more and more in the image
                    of Jesus

   

  from Tell My People

The Holy Spirit

Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"

Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us.

From newsletter Issue 4, 1999, A. Boussard's "Theology of Consecration"

The Theology of Consecration

A. Boussard gives an extremely fine and concise sketch of the theology of consecration: "By the Incarnation, in and of itself, the Humanity of Jesus is consecrated, so that in becoming Man, Jesus is ipso facto constituted Savior, Prophet, King, Priest, and Victim of the one Sacrifice that was to save the world. He is the 'Anointed', par excellence, the 'Christ' totally belonging to God, His Humanity being that of the Word and indwelled by the Holy Spirit. When, by a free act of His human will, He accepts what He is, doing what He was sent to do, He can say that He consecrates 'Himself'. In Christ, therefore, what might be called His 'subjective' consecration is a perfect response to the 'objective' consecration produced in His Humanity through the Incarnation….

"Through Baptism Christians also are consecrated and 'anointed' by the power of the Spirit. They share, in their measure, in the essential consecration of Christ, in His character of King, Priest, and Prophet...

"With Christ and through Christ they are 'ordered' to the glory of God and the salvation of the world. They do not belong to themselves. They belong to Christ the Lord, who imparts His own life to them...

"The vocation of those who have been baptized is to 'live' this consecration by a voluntary adherence--and one that is as perfect as possible--to what it has made of them. Living as 'children of God', they fulfill their objective consecration; like Jesus, they consecrate themselves. This is the deeper meaning of vows and baptismal promises, together with the actual way of life corresponding to them. The baptismal consecration is the fundamental one, constitutive of the Christian. All consecrations which come after it presuppose and are rooted in it..." (Dictionary of Mary, Catholic Book Publishing Co., pp. 54-55)

  

Priestly Newsletter 2000 Issue 3

The Holy Spirit and Mary

    The late Archbishop Luis M. Martinez of Mexico strikingly speaks of the ongoing cooperation of Mary with the Holy Spirit regarding the reproduction of Jesus within us: "Christian life is the reproduction of Jesus in souls…

    "Now, how will this mystical reproduction be brought about in souls? In the same way in which Jesus was brought into the world, for God gives a wonderful mark of unity to all His works. Divine acts have a wealth of variety because they are the work of omnipotence; nevertheless, a most perfect unity always shines forth from them because they are the fruit of wisdom; and this divine contrast of unity and variety stamps the works of God with sublime and unutterable beauty.

    "In His miraculous birth, Jesus was the fruit of heaven and earth…The Holy Spirit conveyed the divine fruitfulness of the Father to Mary, and the virginal soil brought forth in an ineffable manner our most loving Savior, the divine Seed, as the prophets called Him…

    "That is the way He is reproduced in souls. He is always the fruit of heaven and earth.

    "Two artisans must concur in the work that is at once God’s masterpiece and humanity’s supreme product: the Holy Spirit and the most holy Virgin Mary. Two sanctifiers are necessary to souls, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, for they are the only ones who can reproduce Christ.

    "Undoubtedly, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary sanctify us in different ways. The first is the Sanctifier by essence; because He is God, who is infinite sanctity; because He is the personal Love that completes, so to speak, the sanctity of God, consummating His life and His unity, and it belongs to Him to communicate to souls the mystery of that sanctity. The Virgin Mary, for her part, is the co-operator, the indispensable instrument in and by God’s design. From Mary’s maternal relation to the human body of Christ is derived her relation to His Mystical Body which is being formed through all the centuries until the end of time, when it will be lifted up to the heavens, beautiful, splendid, complete, and glorious.

    "These two, then, the Holy Spirit and Mary, are the indispensable artificers of Jesus, the indispensable sanctifiers of souls. Any saint in heaven can co-operate in the sanctification of a soul, but his co-operation is not necessary, not profound, not constant: while the co-operation of these two artisans of Jesus of whom we have just been speaking is so necessary that without it souls are not sanctified (and this by the actual design of Providence), and so intimate that it reaches to the very depths of our soul. For the Holy Spirit pours charity into our heart, makes a habitation of our soul, and directs our spiritual life by means of His gifts. The Virgin Mary has the efficacious influence of Mediatrix in the most profound and delicate operations of grace in our souls. And, finally, the action of the Holy Spirit and the co-operation of the most holy Virgin Mary are constant; without them, not one single character of Jesus would be traced on our souls, no virtue grow, no gift be developed, no grace increased, no bond of union with God be strengthened in the rich flowering of the spiritual life.

    "Such is the place that the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary have in the order of sanctification. Therefore, Christian piety should put these two artisans of Christ in their true place, making devotion to them something necessary, profound, and constant." 18

Promises of Our Lady to Those Who Pray the Rosary

Over the years, in various apparitions, Mary has stressed the importance of the rosary. She has promised great blessings to those who pray the rosary. To St. Dominic and to Blessed Alan she stated:

1. Whoever shall faithfully serve me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall receive signal graces.

2. I promise my special protection and the greatest graces to all those who shall recite the Rosary.

3. The Rosary shall be a powerful armour against Hell, it will destroy vice, decrease sin, and defeat heresies.

4. It will cause virtue and good works to flourish; it will obtain for souls the abundant mercy of God; it will lift them to the desire of eternal things. Oh, that souls would sanctify themselves by this means.

5. The soul which recommends itself to me by the recitation of the Rosary, shall not perish.

6. Whoever shall recite the Rosary devoutly, applying himself to the consideration of its sacred mysteries shall never be conquered by misfortune. God will not chastise him in His justice, he shall not perish by an unprovided death; if he be just he shall remain in the grace of God, and become worthy of eternal life.

7. Whoever shall have a true devotion for the Rosary shall not die without the sacraments of the Church.

8. Those who are faithful to recite the Rosary shall have during their life and at their death the light of God and the plenitude of His graces; at the moment of death they shall participate in the merits of the saints in paradise.

9. I shall deliver from purgatory those who have been devoted to the Rosary.

10. The faithful children of the Rosary shall merit a high degree of glory in Heaven.

11. You shall obtain all you ask of me by the recitation of the Rosary.

12. All those who propagate the Holy Rosary shall be aided by me in their necessities.

13. I have obtained from my Son that all the advocates of the Rosary shall have for intercessors the entire celestial court during their life and at the hour of death.1

                            Man is created to praise, reverence and serve God 
                        our Lord, and by this means to save his soul.

 

Prayer from St. Ignatius

Lord, teach me to be generous.
Teach me to serve you as you deserve;
To give and not to count the cost;
To fight and not to heed the wounds;
To toil and not to seek for rest;
To labor and not to ask for any reward,
Save that of knowing
        that I am doing your will.

 

                R. We have this special place in Clearwater
                    where Mary appears and did appear
                    and Jesus and Mary give special
                    gifts we need there —
 

 


                Mary: Come to the Center in Clearwater and
                    Jesus will outpour His graces
                    to you for your needs when
                    you come and pray there —

                Retreat May 2nd - 5th

                I am your heavenly Mother —
                I call you to come —
                I want you to come to My Immaculate Heart —

                Jesus wants these images in your homes and
                    to pray these prayers
   


 
 

                Mary: May is my month
                June is the month of the Sacred Heart

 

May 5, 1995

Consecrate Your Churches, Home, and Workplace to Our Hearts

Jesus: I want you to consecrate the human race to Sacred Heart of Jesus. I want to be enthroned in all homes, churches, and businesses.

June is the month of the Sacred Heart. I want to be king and center of all hearts. I will keep My promises given to St. Margaret Mary of Alacoque. I promise all this from My most Sacred Heart. Consecrate your chapter to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Consecrate the church or room in which you hold your meeting.

Today is First Friday. I want you to circulate the message I gave to you on consecrating your homes to My Sacred Heart. Make booklets available for people to be able to consecrate their homes and businesses easily. Use the message I gave to you when you consecrated your home.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. Consecrate all homes and businesses to Our Two Hearts. Tell all to have displayed and honored, pictures of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. May and June are the months of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Tell all to consecrate their homes to Our Two Hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. On this day, the 5th of May, 1995, First Friday, I request that you spend the next two months encouraging all to do this consecration.

Gather your friends and say the prayers I have instructed you to say. Sing "To Jesus Heart All Burning" and "Immaculate Mary." May these Two Hearts of love give all members of the human race peace, joy and love in their hearts.

R. Jesus said He desires to be honored by men in the Blessed Sacrament.

Jesus: Circulate the Blue Book messages. They promote this devotion. How My Heart is filled with happiness by the souls who come to the tabernacle and sit with Me. I am Jesus Christ, I wait and long and thirst for My precious souls to come. The souls of men have turned cold. I want souls to come to daily communion and be with Me in front of the tabernacle.

Men's hearts have turned cold. They do not know what love really means. I want hearts that are filled with fire for love of God. Men's hearts have turned to stone.

You are to promote devotion to My most Sacred Heart. I want hearts that burn with love for My Heart. It is through Me that you will know the Father's love. I am the Way, I am the Truth, I am the Life.

Offer a holy hour for the indifference, ingratitude, and sacrileges committed against Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the Sacrament of His greatest love.

R. He promises great graces to those who give reparation to His Sacred Heart and who tell others about offering reparation to Him.

end of May 5, 1995

 

                R. The Blessed Mother is reaching out to us and
                    our troubled world.

                Jesus is telling us to pray as a family -
                Jesus is telling us to pray these prayers daily

                R. Mary is telling us to pray the rosary.

                Song: A Song from Jesus

 

 

Promises of Our Lord to those devoted to His Sacred Heart: 

    1. I will give them all the graces necessary in their state of life.
    2. I will establish peace in their homes.

    3. I will comfort them in all their afflictions.
    4. I will be their refuge during life and above all in death.
    5. I will bestow a large blessing on all their undertakings.
    6. Sinners shall find in My Heart the source and the infinite ocean of mercy.
    7. Tepid souls shall grow fervent.
    8. Fervent souls shall quickly mount to high perfection.
    9. I will bless every place where a picture of My Heart shall be set up and honored.
    10. I will give to priests the gift of touching the most hardened hearts.
    11. Those who promote this devotion shall have their names written in My Heart, never to be blotted out.
    12. I promise you in the excessive mercy of My Heart that My all-powerful love will grant to all those who communicate on the
        first Friday in nine consecutive months the grace of final penitence; they shall not die in My disgrace nor without receiving
        their sacraments; My divine Heart shall be their safe refuge in this last moment.

 

    
 

                Jesus: Pray, go to the Eucharist,
                    Come to the Tabernacle —

Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:

"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.

"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.

"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."

Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle B     The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A    The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C    In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Liturgical Year
$ 15.00 plus postage

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B    At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15

$ 10.00  plus postage

Priestly Newsletter - 2000 #1 - CD. - Christ is Our Strength - Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our-selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10

His voice is so powerful as he read each Newsletter from his heart and soul. "Every man has his own share in the redemption. Each one is also called to share in that suffering through which the redemption was accomplished. He is called to share in that suffering through which all human suffering has also been redeemed. In bringing about the redemption through suffering, Christ has also raised human suffering to the level of the redemption. Thus each man in his suffering can also become a sharer in the redemptive suffering of Christ..." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10
