The church needs to have the stucco replaced

and also the community building.

It is about $38,000 to repair it.

People pray in the church 24 hours a day.

We have prayed in there for 11 years.

The archdiocese gave the church to us

for this purpose for a small price.

                Fr. Carter says

                From Response to God's Love - Chapter 5

                "...God's life is a life of divine knowing and
                    loving, and through Christian faith
                    and love we participate in these
                    Trinitarian operations.

                Hope, for its part, gives a very
                    special support to faith and love...."

       What does faith accomplish in us? The contemporary theology of faith emphasizes that faith established a personal relationship between the Christian and God. Faith is concerned primarily with a response to the personal God and only secondarily, but definitely very importantly, with the truths that God reveals. This should not surprise us, for there is a similarity regarding our relationships with human persons. A person who is of low character and known to be a liar, for example, does not elicit our trust; we tend to disbelieve whatever he or she might say. On the other hand, we tend to believe whatever a person of good character tells us. Human faith, then, directs us, first, to the person and, secondarily, to what he or she says. Divine faith works similarly; it directs us primarily to God himself, and secondarily to the truths he gives us. Moreover, faith not only establishes a special, personal relationship between the believer and God; because of the new vision of mankind that faith gives, it calls the believer to a faith-inspired relationship with his or her neighbor. Faith is truly person orientated—it directs the Christian to God and others and forms personal relationships accordingly.

       Faith is meant to involve not only the intellect, but the entire person; this is the biblical concept of faith. True, the graced intellect assents to the truths that God reveals, but one's whole being is also meant to assent. Ideally, Christian faith is the commitment of the entire person to God in Christ. Mature faith is the complete dedication of oneself and all of one's powers and capacities to Jesus and his cause.

       Because faith is the commitment of one's entire being to the truth of Jesus, we must live the truth of Jesus, not merely intellectually assent to it. We properly comprehend religious truth only when we live it, savor it, experience it to the depths of our being. How much more we have understood the truth of Christ and its power, wisdom and beauty when we were not only assenting to this truth with our intellects but also living it, allowing it to permeate and transform our entire existence. As a corollary, we see the danger of intellectually assenting to Christ's truth without attempting to live accordingly. One's faith can grow weak and even die if there is a constant and serious dichotomy between what we believe and the manner in which we live.

       If we ourselves grow in faith by living its truth, we also progress by witnessing the truth of Jesus in the lives of others. This is an application of the principle of continued Incarnation. In the historical Incarnation, Jesus taught us the truth of the Father not only verbally, but also by his own living of that truth. God hands on the truth of Jesus not only through various verbal forms, such as the teaching of the Church, but also, in part, through the manner in which Christians live this truth. Christianity has not exerted a greater influence in the world because, in part, too few Christian lives have properly assimilated and manifested the truth of Christ. Indeed, this truth tends to have its full attractive force only when it is observed to be properly lived out in the lives of Christians who profess this truth. Our faith is blessed when we ourselves encounter such Christians.

       When we live according to faith, we are living according to a vision of God, humanity, and the rest of creation. Faith tells us things about God and creation that we could either not otherwise know or know only with greater difficulty and with less certainty. A good example of the former is the doctrine of the Trinity: Unaided reason can never arrive at this sublime truth; only the intellect that has been elevated with the grace of faith can encounter the Triune God. 

       If we are to properly progress in the spiritual life, we must allow this vision of faith to more and more penetrate our activities. Increasingly, we should become contemplative in action; we should view reality in a way that is similar to God's view of reality. Increasingly, everything we see should remind us of God because everything that is good and true and beautiful really does reflect God. The beauties of nature, for example, manifest his beauty; the raging storm at sea reflects his power; the stillness of the forest reminds us of God's holy silence; and the goodness, the kindness, and the love that we observe in others around us tell us that God is infinitely good and kind and loving. 

       The vision of faith allows us to see mankind and the world in a manner that differs from the nonbeliever's view. As contemplatives in action, we should act upon this vision. Every man, woman, and child is marked with the blood of Christ. If Jesus loved them so much—indeed, if he now loves them so much—can we be indifferent to their needs, both spiritual and material? Can we be indifferent to all the problems that burden modern men and women? If we are Christians of living faith, we know that we cannot be indifferent. The vision of faith should inspire us to action according to our vocation, talents, opportunity, time, and energy. We should be laboring to make mankind and the world more reflective of Christ's image. To the extent that we do not, we are betraying the vision of faith.

                Moses believed God and look what
                    he did —

                God tested Abraham and Abraham
                    loved and believed God so
                    much he was willing to
                    sacrifice his own son —

                Noah believed God — he built the
                    arc while others around him
                    were disobedient and growing
                    more and more sinful —

                God blessed these men in their belief —

                God promised Abraham descendents as
                    numerous as the stars of the sky —

                After flooding the earth for 40 days at
                    the time of Noah —
                    God make this promise to Noah —

                We see the focus on faith —
                    the vision of God in
                    the gospel where Thomas did
                    not believe —

                When Mary appeared to me daily at an
                    old seminary — before her
                    apparitions the corner fell
                    off — I had tried to deliver
                    Jesus' message there

 

 

                The day the corner fell off in minutes
                    was March 22, 1994
                            Lucia's birthday
                            the main Fatima visionary

                Very few believed me and it was
                    hard

                Fr. Carter got the message to start
                    the Priestly Newsletter May 31, 1994 — 15 years
                    ago the last day of the month of Mary

                On July 5, 1994 Mary began appearing
                    daily to me at the old seminary
                    where the corner fell off of and
                    Mary told me to be there every day at 6:30
                    Fr. Carter said Jesus and Mary told him
                    to come July 10, 1994 —
                    And he came for about 4 1/2 months every day

                    That month Fr. Carter wrote the
                prayer manual — We prayed the first
                Shepherds of Christ prayers as Mary appeared —
                Fr. Carter made me pray the Litanies of
                the Sacred Heart and we prayed
                for the priests, the Church and the world —
                We prayed also before an image of
                Our Lady of Guadalupe and the Sacred
                Heart

                    On July 31, 1994 Fr. Carter got this message —

 

July 31, 1994

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,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)

 

                    The first Priestly Newsletter was sent to every
                priest in the United States and would continue
                every other month until his last at the end
                of 2000 and the foreign countries in 1995 —

Pray For The Success Of The Priestly Newsletter - Shepherds of Christ

R. The following is the first official message I received before the statue of Mary at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center. It is a personal message for Father Carter.

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

I am Mary, your Immaculate Mother. I bring this message to My beloved priest-son.

                I was told to make the Red Rosary book from
                    the Rosaries Mary and Jesus gave during
                    the daily visits —
                    It was red for the Sacred Heart
                    I was told to put a rainbow on
                        the Red Rosary Book

  

     

                2 1/2 years after Mary had appeared to me
                    daily for 14 months and
                    the 5ths for almost 2 1/2 years

                On December 5, 1996
                    Jesus appeared on the cross
                    with his mouth moving

                On December 17, 1996 — the Red Rosary
                    book, published at the direction of the
                    Lord, left the printer

                This same day 2 1/2 years since the
                    Priestly Newsletter began and Mary had
                    first appeared to me —
                    she appeared on the building
                    in Clearwater

                July 5, 1998 — 4 years after Mary's first

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.

Joyful Mysteries

 

Song: A Song from Jesus

R. Again I want to pray for Kathleen's mom and her family and hope that she gets healed, if it is God's will.

Jesus: Let go to Me. Let go and let Me touch your soul. So tight, wound up like a drum. And I am with you here, and this is My building and the building of My Mother. For I have given to the world this great gift, that you will know more and more, the love that your God has for you, the love of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart.

    It is in this that you will know the peace that Mary promised at Fatima, but you must listen to the message that she gave to you in spreading the consecration, and consecrating your homes, and consecrating your families, and praying as I have directed Fr. Carter for the priests, the Church and the world, in praying the rosary, and spreading this to the schools, and more and more, trying to work with the rosary makers that you spread the rosary to the schools for the children will be touched.

    It is through the rosary that you will know more and more, the mysteries of Our lives, that you will be able to live as I have called you to live. For you do not see the importance of this building to the Father. 

Mary by day
July 5, 2000

by night
July 5, 2000

    He has spoken to you. He has told you over and over again, how important it is to the plan that He has given to this world. For He is the Creator and you are the creatures, and you are not pleasing your God, in your disobedience and the ways that you have acted. It is because of the prayer here, that you have appeased your God. Do not minimize My request for the services that I have called for from this building any longer.  Our Father

Jesus: Our Lady appeared at this building that all could see, for 7 1/2 years, almost ignored by most of the world. My people, you are offending your God. Pray with all your heart. Beg for mercy. Do not minimize My request for My building in Florida, to spread the consecration to Our Two Hearts, to pray the rosary, for frequent reception of the Eucharist, to tell the world of the great gifts given in the Catholic Church, to encourage all to be baptized. I am Jesus and I have spoken.  Hail Mary

R. Oh Lady of Fatima — Lady here in the building in Clearwater, we want so much for the world to be the way that God wants it to be. That we have given our lives and in our imperfection, we may be tested, and may, many times not come back in the way that we should, but our faithfulness and our love is there, our gift of ourselves given, our true valor, although not with the greatest perfection many times, for we are the poor banished children of Eve, but would You look upon our faithfulness and intercede to our beloved God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit ,and ask Him to please help us to do this, for we want the world with all of our hearts to be the way that God wants it to be.

    Oh Lady of Light, Oh Lady of Fatima in the Americas, from the depth of every cell in my body I cry to thee. Hear our prayer from this place. For the journey was hard and the nights were long, and we never said 'nay'. We said 'yes' Lady. Yes, Lady for you and your Son. Yes Lady, to turmoil and trial, through love and joy. Yes, Lady. Yes, Lady. Lady of Fatima, intercede to God the Father, that we can reach the souls of this earth with this message of love, that we can reach the hierarchy, the pope, and they will listen, for the Church is the greatest, the gift of the Eucharist, the gifts of the Sacraments and baptism. Yes, Lady.

Sing: Dear Lady of Fatima, we come on bended knee to beg your intercession for peace and unity. Dear Mary won't you show us the right and shining way. We pledge our love and offer you a rosary each day.

R. We love you so much Mary. We love You Jesus. We love You Father and Holy Spirit, and all the angels and saints. We love the Church and the priests and the hierarchy. We do this because of our love. And satan doesn't like what we do and it is hard, but it is our labor of love. It is given because it means so much to us. Please hear us God. Please hear us Mary. Help us please.

 

The Annunciation

1. R. You know we have the Eucharist exposed in China, Indiana, and you can look on the internet, and you can see the people down there praying with us, and you can pray with us all over the world. Let's all pray with all of our hearts and all the love that we have for God and Mary, and all the souls of the earth. For it is love why we pray. It is love for the souls that Jesus died for. We love our Church so much God. We love our priests and the hierarchy. We pray for them all the time because of our great love. We thank You God. Thank you for the pope and the cardinals, and the bishops and the archbishops and the priests, and for the priests that help us, for my brother, and Father Mike and Father Don and the priests that come and say Mass for us, and for all that Fr. Bernie did.

    What a gift God has given to us in the Church. What a gift! A gift, a gift beyond price. A gift beyond measure, a gift beyond words, a gift that God gives to us in giving us Himself in the Eucharist truly present. Oh God how can I tell You how much the Eucharist means to me? How much it means to have Your grace in me, to know the presence of the Father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit dwelling within me, to know the gift of baptism, and to be so ever grateful, to love the Word as I do, more and more the gift of the Word. The Word feeds my hungry soul. Oh God, the treasure is beyond price or words and we thank Thee.

2. Hail Mary

3. R. And we pray for the healing that we prayed for, and all the healing that you want to pray for. We ask that the Blood of Jesus will be spread on everyone in the Movement, everybody that touches the Movement and our families. We pray God that You will send people to this building, and that we get the funds that we so desperately need right now. Funds just for the bills and to get this mailing out again to the priests, and to get Fr. Carter's Response to God's Love book started at the printer, so we can send the next mailing. Dear God, please help us.

4. Hail Mary

5. Jesus: And so you are busy about many things because I have called you, and I have allowed you to be tested over and over again. And I know of your yes and I know of your struggle, and I am with you in it all, for you are never alone. For the work that you do is the work to help the souls of this earth, the souls that I died for. And yet you may feel the struggle, and that is what suffering is. Suffering is suffering. But I am close to you, My child in all that you experience.

    The building that you have been given is the building of My Father, a gift for the world. And it is to be guarded by the Shepherds of Christ that you will give your hearts, and for those who will help and contribute, that you will be able to maintain this building, and do what I have asked you to do from this building, that there will be peace on this earth, that you can help to bring to completion more the Fatima mission, that you will spread the prayer chapters for the priests, the Church and the world.

    But you must have great faith. You must have a heart of love, and one of goodness that to those who come, your efforts are those to help them, to help them to know what I tell you now, to not give into the evil one to feel pressed on, but to realize how I am right with you and I am helping you and I love you so.

6. Hail Mary

7. Jesus: And you feel like you are tried in doing My will, and yet you look at Me on the cross, you see My body covered with wounds, My hands with nails and the nail in My feet. You see My head crowned with thorns, and you know that they nailed Me to the cross.

8. Jesus: And I did it for you, and I did it for the love of My precious souls. And I call to you today from this building to spread this love to the whole world, that you pray your prayers to help make reparation for the sins of the people of this earth, and that you never lose hope, but you feel that deep connection with Me and with My Mother, and that you know that we are giving you this commission to spread the love of Our Two Hearts to the world, to never falter or to become weak.

    But to become empowered, because this is the place given to you from God the Father, and to those that I have called to help you, to help you in the payment. Continue to pray. Pray ardently. Pray for your donors. Pray that you will be able to keep this place, a place in which great grace and healing will be granted to those who come and pray fervently, and pray with you in these retreats. I will outpour My richest graces. Do you hear Me, My child? I am speaking to you in clear tones. You must listen and take My message to heart.

9. Hail Mary
10. Hail Mary

    

The Visitation

1. Jesus: Have you felt the pulling back of many of those that are to help you, of pulling back, of pulling back? And I have called them, I have called them, and I have called them by name. And they do not answer the call that I have given to them, and so it is more and more difficult. And the evil one tests through many, that pull back and pull back, when they are being called. You must pray My child, pray for them, for I have called many to help you.

2. Jesus: You can say 'no', or you can say 'yes'. You can say 'let somebody else do it'. You can say 'God is not talking to me' or 'Mary did not appear on the building'. But in all of it, the bottom line is, you are unwilling to do the helping. You do not want to be bothered. And when you hear Me call you softly in your heart, or I ask you to do something, very explicit, you do not listen, because you do not want to.

3. Jesus: Pray to the Holy Spirit, that you will answer with a willing spirit, that you will see always, with the right reasoning, of looking through the Father's eyes at the world below, rather than looking through the tainted vision and tainted habits, that you have allowed yourself to acquire. Pray to the Holy Spirit to rid you of vices, that have stopped you and slowed the process, for souls are at stake. And I, Jesus Christ, who died for these souls, call out to you this day. You are here and they are here struggling. Do not focus on yourselves and be selfish. Focus on the souls that you will be able to reach, if you pray hard to the Holy Spirit and give with a willing spirit of love.

4. Jesus: I have watched many give into their emotions and their feelings, and they are determining their actions by how they are emotionally or in their feelings. You have a free will to choose right or wrong. You cannot ever say, "Well, the devil made me do it." The devil did not make you do it. You have a free choice and with right reason, using your intellect, you can choose good rather than evil. Take responsibility for your actions. Do not give into satan to trick you once again, to allow you to go deeper and deeper into habits, that cause you trouble and hurt others. Pray to the Holy Spirit that you will be filled with the Holy Spirit, that you will answer the call that I am giving to you now, that you will let go of the enslavement to which you have given into satan.

5. Jesus: I call you to holiness. I call you to unity. I call you to obey the structure. I call you.

Sing: Holy, Holy — Holy Is His Name

6. Hail Mary

7. Jesus: Do not test a just God any longer. Pray for mercy for your fellows, and live lives of greater holiness, for it is in your lives of holiness, in praying for the priests, the Church and the world, that you have appeased your God. I love you, I love you, I love you.

And we need some things for some bills. And we would like to get Fr. Carter's Response to God's Love printed and that's going to be about $4,000, but then we can send it to all the Hierarchy. So please help us. Pray to God. If you know somebody that would help us let me or John know. Thanks again. Pray for Kathleen's mom. In the name of the Father, and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. I'll be here at 1:30 and 6:20 tomorrow and the next day. Thanks. Bye.

                Do you want peace?

                When we didn't listen to Mary
                    after the Apparition of
                    Fatima

                there was World War II many years
                    later

  

Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima

by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

July 13, 1917

    "During this same July apparition, Mary showed the three children a vision of Hell. She told them:

    "You have seen Hell, where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish, in the world, devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If people do what I tell you, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.

    "The war (World War I, then raging) is going to end. But if people do not stop offending God, another and worse one will begin in the reign of Pius XI. When you shall see a night illuminated by an unknown light [January 2, 1938], know that this is the great sign that God gives you that He is going to punish the world for its many crimes by means of war, hunger, and persecution of the Church and the Holy Father. (12)

    "To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart and the Communion of Reparation on the five first Saturdays. If my requests are granted, Russia will be converted and there will be peace. If not, she will scatter her errors throughout the world, provoking wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, and various nations will be destroyed....

    "But in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world." (13)

                    messages

   

Mary by day
July 5, 2000

by night
July 5, 2000

   

                At the end of the
                    Century —

                Jesus told Fr. Carter to start
                    these prayer chapters —

                Jesus told me at 6:20


                    6:20 Holy Spirit Novena 
 


 

                    6:30 Shepherds of Christ prayers

                    followed by Rosary

 

                April 27, 2009 - After Mass

                R. I just want to be with You Jesus —

                Jesus: Rita, the fires of hell are
                    total isolation —

                When one learns to love — they give more and more
                    to God and to those others you were called
                    in your life to love —

                Giving means you are not possessive of another,
                    nor do you try to dominate another for your
                    own weakness

                Loving according to the Father's will means - your
                    ruling force for why you act is because
                    it is God's will —

                A person who manipulates on their schedule, gets
                    their schedule

                    They can control to make sure nothing unpredictable
                        happens

                    A person living according to God's will - does those things
                        God wills them to do with much love

                    So will you be measured by how you treated others —

85. Thank you for your beautiful letter and accompanying material on the Shepherds of Christ. I read with attention the material enclosed. Fr. Edward Carter, S.J., and yourself were specially set aside by the Holy Spirit to pray for those who serve the various ministries of the Church. Your work has given birth to many graces and spiritual fruit. I am certain that your prayer and counsel have saved many priests from an overly pessimistic evaluation of the present state of the presbyterate in the USA. You began this work in 1993; this was well before the breaking forth of the sexual abuse crisis within the Church in 2002. The strength and consolation that your members are offering to priests through their prayers have been of immense importance in sustaining priests in their ministry. I will continue to pray for the intentions of your association and deepen my own prayer for the life and ministry of priests in the USA and through the world. 9/9/2008 Cardinal Vatican

86. I have received your letter of August 30, 2008 and the enclosed publication "Guiding Light, The Word Alive in Our Hearts."

87. Thank you very much for your letter of August 30, 2008, and for the enclosed prayer card, booklets and books produced by Shepherds of Christ. It was very kind of you to share these materials with me. 9/9/2008 Bishop USA

88. Thank you for sending your kind letter and the Homilies by Rev. Fr. Joe Robinson, I appreciate your work and pray for greater fruits for the priests all over the world. 9/8/2008 Cardinal Japan

89. Thank you for taking the time to explain the Shepherds of Christ Movement. I am so pleased that you have continued the vision of Fr. Carter, S.J. 9/8/2008 Archbishop USA

90. I have recently received three books and other material which you and your collaborators keep publishing as an instrument of prayers for priests and spiritual assistance to priests. Thanks for this donation which I will again hand over to the library of our Theological seminary to be used by professors and seminarians. 9/8/2008 Archbishop Croatia

91. Thank you very much for the book "Guiding Light: The Word Alive in Our Hearts." I will enjoy reading your book in the coming months when everything slows down. I commend you for the good work you are doing for the Church, and pray that the Lord will continue to bless you and your work. Please keep me in your daily prayers, as you are assured of my prayers. 9/8/2008 Bishop USA

92. I have received your kind letter dated August 30, 2008 together with the "Guiding Light", a book of the Homilies by Fr. Robinson. I am very grateful for your kind remembrance of me, particularly in your prayers, I have been at the Shrine of Our Lady of Loreto, and have had a special "memento" of you and of "The Shepherds of Christ Ministries." 9/8/2008 Cardinal Vatican

93. Thank you for the package of books and pamphlets from the Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I will certainly keep your movement in my prayer. 9/5/2008 Bishop USA

94. Thank you for your recent letter to me, dated the 30th August 2008, and also for the accompanying booklet "Guiding Light", consisting of homilies by your brother, Fr. Joe Robinson. I do hope that the material will help many priests throughout the world grow closer to Christ "our great high Priest". 9/5/2008 Cardinal Scotland

95. Thank you for sending me the materials published by the Shepherds of Christ. They are always well-done, although many priests might dismiss them as too "traditional" for their consideration. In your most recent mailing, you include a book of homilies, something that most priests find helpful, no matter what their position might be on various devotions. Homilies aids are often the way into a priest's preoccupations, and I think you might wish to consider other similar materials to bring your ministry to the attention of more priests. Thank you again for including me in your recent mailing. You are in my prayers; please keep me in yours. 9/4/2008 Cardinal USA

96. Thank you for your letter of August 30, 2008. Thank you also for the enclosed materials and the two books Guiding Light: The Word Alive in Our Hearts and Medicine of Immortality. 9/3/2008 Bishop USA

97. I write to acknowledge receipt of your kind letter of June 24th, enclosing a copy of Shepherds of Christ, A Book of Spirituality Newsletter for Priests. While thanking you for the same, I assure you of my prayers. 9/2/2008 Cardinal Vatican

98. Thank you for sending the Mass Book and other material from the Shepherds of Christ Ministries. 8/30/2008 Cardinal Vatican

99. I would like to acknowledge receipt of the documents of June 24, 2008 you were kind enough to send him. With sincere thanks. 8/21/2008 Archbishop Canada

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,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)

Yes — All the ends of the earth have seen
the power of God.

 

     God has called us to be united as a family in
the Shepherds of Christ.

     This is a vocation — to pray deeply for
the priests, the Church and the world and
to help support the Newsletter and the
Ministries.

     Remember the image of Our Lady
of Clearwater on the building. We have
very special Fatima statues so you can
have a special place of prayer in your
homes, praying the rosary for your family
and for the priests, the Church and the
world. If you are interested in these
very special Fatima/Clearwater statues
e-mail me with your phone number
and address 
info@sofc.org.

     Those using the special statues
will be united to us in a special way —
We want you to pray the Shepherds of
Christ prayers for the priests, the Church
and the world from your special place
in your home.

     When people have set up a prayer corner/niche
with this statue, Fatima/Clearwater glass, they have
reported that their families have received special
blessings. With this statue it is important to pray
the prayers in the red prayer manual and consecrate
your home and family to the Sacred Heart and
Immaculate Heart.

Call Sheila or Doris about statues or go to China or
Clearwater.
