R. We want to be secure but are we ever
really secure. God has called us to the light
to live in the light and even in adversity we
can live in the light.
Think of Jesus hanging on the cross against
a dark sky and yet He paid for our sins in
such a sorrowful setting.
The cross shows us contradiction. It is
the Son of God who is crucified and yet we
see sacrifice and love – we see God in
His Divinity and humanity – the Son of God
hanging on the cross –
Christ crucified; Christ suffered; Jesus our
Savior, kept going during the bitter passion
to the hill of Calvary where they crucified the
Son of God.
We must know that presence of God within
our graced baptized soul. We experience in
this life sufferings and joys and we have to
embrace the moment and live so deeply united
to God.
God is with us. God is always with us.
In suffering, waiting for a doctor, waiting
for a report of a loved one suffering –
We are comforted by God. We know God dwells in
us. We know presence. We keep united – always –
Being united to Jesus means we don't despair,
being united to Jesus means we really know
His presence; being united to Jesus means we
reach out to God, always, we know He is
there in trials, in suffering. He goes with us
where ever we go. He is our friend, we share
our joys and sorrows. We know Him deeply
in presence with us.
We know Him when we love each other –
we love Him in the other – we love them
more because we see Him living in them.
It is so beautiful to know God more and more
and to love more and more deeply –
We love in sorrow, we love in joy, we
are filled not only with this love, but hope
for our eternal happiness and hope for
the eternal happiness of those we love –
We learn surrender to the Power of
the Almighty God; We learn greater
trust in Him and those He has put
us to work with and we pray for
ourselves and for those we work with, those
we love. We love what God loves because
He is one in us.
Love grows, love is not standing still –
Love is seen in the crucifixion, love
is seen in the resurrection. We enjoy the
moments of our lives, whatever comes,
we enjoy being with others and we want
to make the most of every day – whatever
the program, that day, that God has for us –
Jesus: I am the way, the truth and the life.
Purity – I call you to purity – to be
so one in Me – to live in the light –
even in suffering –
You see Me on the cross – you know
I suffered for your sins. I am your
best friend, I love you so much.
Suffer for Me in an elegant sight –
Suffering is a part of life –
There is no joy in the heart of the angry,
bitter man – He is like a man who
blows out his own candle –
Were you ever in the wind with a candle
and no matter how you try your candle
would blow out.
Well the man of remorse and bitter, angry
heart is like a candle that is blown
out permanently, by his own hand.
His bitterness is like a whirling wind
snuffing out his own light – It is
fueled with angry, darkness.
In the dark a man cannot see and
if it is black enough he can stumble
and fall with no forewarning – because
he cannot see.
The angry, bitter, prideful heart is
like this – a man going through life –
candle in his hand, but he can't
light it – he can't see – he stumbles,
he falls, he blames others, he hates,
his bitterness grows – His free will
is used to choose the darkness of
his own making.
Why would a man snuff out
his own candle.
I give you your life – to live – I
give you each other to love – to work
with, to help each other in the building
of the Kingdom.
Live your life in Me. Live
your life in love. Live each moment
as a moment to be savored and will
never return again. In your heart is
joy always because you live your life
in Me.
I am the way, the truth and the life –
I love you so much. Be a candle in the
dark, be a candle in this world –
You have a free will.
Who is the Master of your life?
When you choose your own will
opposed to Mine there is conflict
in your heart with God and you
walk in darkness – You carry a
heavy weight of your own making
when you run your life, when you
oppose God – You carry a heavy
weight on your heart for your pride
and anger and bitterness and blaming
a just man for your own choices of
isolation and darkness.
Walk in the ways of faith. Carry
in your heart My light with you.
Surrender to the Plan of God and
love your fellows, you are not
perfect. I love you even in your imperfections,
I died for your sin. Be filled with
gratitude for your life. Live in the Holy Spirit.
Do not let fear and anger and remorse
take hold of your heart.
When suffering comes, stay united to Me.
Identify your suffering with Me –
Say:
Come to Me Lord and Possess my Soul –
I am your beloved –
Love Me –
Love Me –
Love Me –
I am the Light of the World –
I want to live and dwell and
operate in you –
I love you, My child – surrender
and know My love –
Cling to Me
May 13, 1993
Jesus: My dear child, if you stay close to Me, then I live in you and you live in Me. I am He Who created you and I love you with such an intensity that you will never know. My words are your truth. You must abide in My heart in all things. There is no room for doubt. My ways are steadfast, direct, and without error.
You must stay rooted in Me to ward off the power of the evil one. His grip is paralyzing and crippling. His power is stronger every day.
When you live in Me, I am in your heart and he has no power over Me. I am your God. I am your true lover. I want to protect you. I want to guard you from this force. Stay rooted firmly in Me and he will have no power.
I am He Who comforts you. My hand is upon you. Hold tight to Me, My child. My eyes are fixed right on you. You are My most precious child. I love you as no other can. My arms are about you. My tenderness surrounds you. My love is in your heart. You go not alone. I walk with you.
I share every aspect of your life with you. Cling to Me, feel My presence. It is warm and secure within your chest. There is no room for fear, for I cast out fear and bring you comfort and joy.

Rosary Meditations
May 10, 1994
Note: These letters were received on April 25, 1994, at Medjugorje, from Our Lady.
1. The Agony in the Garden.
Jesus: I knew full well every blow, every wound, the crowning, the crucifixion. I saw My mother's suffering. I knew all that would happen. I sweat blood. I suffered so much mental anguish for you, beloved one, for you. I said yes to all I knew would follow, yes to you, knowing how you one day would love Me, too. Oh, how I love you. Will you say yes to the suffering I send to you? Will you say yes to loving My beloved ones? Say yes to Me today. I loved you so.
2. The Scourging at the Pillar.
Mary: I am the Immaculate Heart. I love you with my tender Heart. I heard the blows they gave my Son. I could scarcely look up. I heard the blows, the awful blows. My Son stood in silence while they beat Him.
Jesus: All the whipping, all the brutality! The blows covered My entire body. I bled profusely. I stood in My own blood. These were My beloved ones who beat Me. They tore My flesh until it hung from My body and they laughed at their handiwork.
Do your brothers persecute you and say mean things to you? Do as I did. Respond with love. Anyone who is hating you is suffering from connectedness to Me. Pray for their conversion. Live to help them get to heaven.
3. Crowning with Thorns
Jesus: Think of someone you love very deeply yelling awful accusations at you. How it wounds your heart, My child. I sat there while they crowned Me with thorns and they hollered awful accusations at Me. They were My beloved ones, yet they stood there spitting at Me and hollering awful things at Me. Those whom I dearly loved, and they mocked Me and insulted Me and hurled their ugly hatred and lies at Me. I accepted all they did with a bleeding Heart and forgave them and loved them still.
Oh, you do not know suffering. Suffer for Me and lessen My load. This world is wounding My aching Heart. People are indifferent and hateful. They mistreat one another and are proud of their actions. Pray for your beloved persecutors. Don't hate them. It is as with those who tore My flesh and mocked Me. They were so engulfed in darkness! They did not know what they were doing.
All that matters is how you love Me and one another. Love those who hate you. My way is a hard way. When they hurt you and holler every ill thing at you, look to heaven and praise the Lord for the trial. It is in suffering that you are drawn closer to My precious Heart. I shed My blood for you. I suffered for you. Will you not suffer when I ask you to?
4. Carrying of the Cross
Mary: I could scarcely stand to walk the way with Him. I was so sick at what they had done but I wanted to be with my Son. I walked by the grace of God.
Jesus: My suffering was intensified by the sorrow and suffering of My mother. My eyes met hers and I saw her red, teary face. All they did to Me, but to watch My beloved mother suffer! She heard the cross as it thumped up the hill. The sounds were so loud and, at the sight, she had to look away.
Stand by Me and walk this road to Calvary. Listen and see My beaten body. Hear the jeers of the crowd. Hear the thumping of the cross. Listen when it falls hard on Me and I can scarcely go any more. Walk with Me and be there, then think of the little crosses I ask you to carry. Do not put them down. Accept them for Me. It is in your crosses that you are drawn closer to Me. I endured all this suffering for deep and ardent love of you and I would do it today for you alone.
5. The Crucifixion
Mary: They hung Him on the cross. I was so weak I could barely stand. I was held up by John. I watched my Son in such agony. Oh, my beloved Son! What had He done to deserve such suffering? He loved you to His death. He was crucified for love.
Jesus: How do I tell you that I died for you? Do you even know I would do it today, just for you? They nailed My beautiful hands and feet to the cross. Big, gigantic nails they pounded into My precious hands. Such hard hearts! They pounded the nails through My feet. Blood spurted out and they continued. Such hardness of hearts. Look at your hands, My child. Would you allow someone to nail them to a cross? Would you withstand this torture for love? This is My love for you. It is not a little lip service love. It is the love that made Me lay down My life for you.
Surrender. I call you to surrender. Open your arms as I did when I died on the cross. Let all your worldly possessions drop around you and you will experience the joy of being free, united only to Me, of letting go and knowing that I, God, tend to your every need. To My death on the cross I loved you and I love you this way this very day. Let go and give it all to Me. I will care for you far better than you could for yourself. I am God and I love you more than you can love yourself.
R. Jesus is dead, hanging on the cross, arms outstretched. His feet are not even on the ground. He is hanging by nails on a piece of wood. What do we hold on to? He wants us in midair in total surrender.
Jesus: Oh, little ones, how you squander your possessions. How you hold on to people, how you won't let go! See Me in total surrender. I gave My very life for you. What do you hold on to, My little ones? Little bits and pieces you give to Me and you hold tightly to your lives. All will go up in smoke and only the things of God will remain. Not one pair of shoes do you take with you, only your love given to God and to others.

Jesus: A person can be like one waiting for a bus –
they wait and wait and take the
bus marked
A person of light – is a light before others
they live in the moment – they love the
light – they take the bus called

Sorrowful Mysteries
The Agony in the Garden
l. R. Think of God Reigning on His Throne. See the exposed Eucharist. See the Almighty God before us.
Isaiah: 5: 15-25
Human nature has been humbled, humankind brought low, and the eyes of the proud have been humbled. Yahweh Sabaoth is the more respected for his judgement, God the Holy One has displayed his holiness by his justice! Now the lambs will graze in their old pastures, and the fields laid waste by fat cattle will feed the kids. Woe to those who drag guilt along by the reins of duplicity, drag along sin as though with a cart rope; to those who say, ‘Why doesn't he do his work quickly so that we can see it; why doesn't the Holy One of Israel's design hurry up and come true so that we can experience it?’
Woe to those who call what is bad, good, and what is good, bad, who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness, who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
Woe to those who think themselves wise and believe themselves enlightened.
Woe to those whose might lies in wine bibbing, their heroism in mixing strong drinks, who acquit the guilty for a bribe and deny justice to the upright.
Yes, as the flame devours the stubble, as the straw flares up and disappears, their root will be like decay and their shoot be carried off like dust, for having rejected the law of Yahweh Sabaoth, for having despised the word of the Holy One of Israel. This is why Yahweh's anger has blazed out against his people; and he has raised his hand against them to strike them; why the mountains have shuddered and why corpses are lying like dung in the streets. After all this, his anger is not spent. No, his hand is still raised!
2. R. On October 5th of last year and October 5th of the year before, Mary gave a message and she appeared in immense beauty at Immaculata. And it was interesting because both of these messages had been discerned and put in books which will eventually end up getting in a book. But the one on October 5th is in this All Night Message. (its suppose to be anyway) And this is what she says, she says: “On this October 5, 1996, I beg you as your heavenly Mother to not ignore the importance of these rosaries. I have appeared, I have begged, I have warned you. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. His hand is struck with power...
I am Our Lady of the Holy Rosary. This is the key to watching the Movement spread. I am assisting you in publishing and circulating these rosaries. Anyone who stops the rosary messages and meditations will deal with my Son,
Jesus! Souls are at stake and souls have been lost because of the delays to hold back the messages.”
R.
The point of it is, is it’s like Mary appeared on July 5th, of 1994 and she continued to appear on the 5th of the month until December 5th, of 1996. And that’s when Jesus appeared hanging on the cross.3.
R. These messages started immensely for the world in the summer of 1993, and they were blocked. And after Mary said on October 5th that she couldn’t hold back the hand of her Son anymore, then Jesus appeared dying on the cross on December 5th, 1996. And then, after that, Mary appeared on the building in Florida to bring the world to the Shepherds of Christ Movement.4.
R. This whole Movement is the Plan of the Father in order to help bring about, majorly, the Reign of the Sacred Heart. Mary appeared on this bank in Florida and she said, that she appeared because we have made money our God. In the new era what will end up happening is, is that God will be their God. And this is what Jesus saw in the garden. He saw the priests of this day and age. Many of which who will not spend the time in prayer with Him, that go to the people, the committees, etc. I am not talking about the priests, I am talking about the messages that Jesus has revealed to me. It is not up to us to talk about the priests. The information that I am revealing here is the information that Jesus has revealed to me in messages. This message is being disclosed in this rosary because of the urgent need for us to have Shepherds of Christ. Not shepherds that are being formed by the people, but Shepherds of Christ that will lay down their lives for their flock, that will take their orders from God, that will have a oneness with Him that as they administer the Sacraments and celebrate the Mass, He is so one in them that they are being led in this oneness in Christ. And then in this world today, the world will be filled with holy priests that are truly Shepherds of Christ.I could never understand the writing at the beginning of Father’s newsletter when it talked about the hired men. The
priests can take their directions from the people and their directions must be directions from God, in this great oneness, which only occurs in great intimacy and oneness with Him, time spent in front of the tabernacle, time spent after Communion. The Newsletter that Jesus writes through Fr. Carter is the Newsletter that will teach the priests to be Shepherds of Christ, that will teach the priests to be as the Good Shepherd, that would not run when the wolf comes, but would lay down their lives for their flock. Jesus wept over Jerusalem. There will be a new Jerusalem in which every person is a personal spouse of Jesus. This is our mission, to help to bring about this new earth. For the old order will pass away as souls live in Him. But they will not live in Him unless they give their hearts first to Our Lady, for we must be pure to deeply dwell in the Heart of Jesus. And it is in consecrating our hearts to Our Lady that we can go deeply into His Heart, in her purity.5. Jesus: I am the Good Shepherd and I give to you, My beloved ones, My beloved apostles, the command to pray for My priests. The prayers of ye holy souls will reach the Almighty God and He will answer them. Your holiness is not measured by the trials that you are experiencing. Your holiness is measured in your desire to continue to endure, to love God above all things, to help to bring about His Kingdom, for you will suffer far beyond any of your expectations on your way to help to bring souls to Me. For the devil will press and press on you. He will try you as never before and you will argue and you will fall to your knees and you will see your imperfections parade in front of your face. And if you run because you are not perfect, this world will suffer. You must come to the tabernacle everyday and spend this time with Me. If it is impossible, you must spend the time alone with Me. You will be tried far beyond any trials that you have experienced. You will argue with one another for satan will attempt to divide you and tear you apart at the seams. If you run away, who will I send? You are not perfect. You are imperfect instruments that I use, that I love dearly. You must be humble. You must admit your faults. You must be loving above all things for I will show you that you are dependent on Me. It is in grace that you will grow in holiness. You cannot be proud, for the proud heart will stay proud and will not become holy. The holy man, is the man, who admits his faults, who goes to confession, who above all things loves God and wants to do the will of the Father. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth, as it is in Heaven. What will happen if you say no?
6. Jesus: For they were a willful race and they were rooted in pride and when they sinned, they covered up the sin and they hid the darkness within. My beloved ones, you are the ones that will wear the white robes. When you soil the garments that you wear, you come to the priests and you ask for forgiveness. For it is in purity, that you will unite to the Bridegroom of your soul. The more you pray with a pure heart, the more your prayers will weigh heavy in Heaven. Every moment it is important that you strive for purity. And as you try more and more to be pure, satan will attack you vehemently, to try to get you to sin, for your prayers are, mighty prayers, that come to the Almighty God and satan wants you to sin, for he does not want your prayers to be heard. You will be attacked, vehemently, by satan. He will try to get you to sin. You must keep your garments white and pure, washed in the Blood of the Lamb. And above all, the order must be, that of: love, your hearts rooted in love and humility, as you lead the world to the light, and to My love alive within you.
7. R. We are fed by the Word of God. It is the living Word, the living Word. And so we read the Word of God and it truly lives within our being. Deeper and deeper the words penetrate within our being. The Word is spoken many times in the Church today with lips that are hollow, that do not experience the Word, in their hearts. And so, Jesus would say, “They treat Me as a dead object”. He is alive and He feeds us with His Word and with Himself in the Eucharist and He is treated by many like He does not exist.
8. Revelation 3: 1-4
I know about your behaviour: how you are reputed to be alive and yet are dead. Wake up; put some resolve into what little vigour you have left: it is dying fast. So far I have failed to notice anything in your behaviour that my God could possibly call perfect; remember how you first heard the message. Hold on to that. Repent! If you do not wake up, I shall come to you like a thief, and you will have no idea at what hour I shall come upon you. There are a few in Sardis, it is true, who have kept their robes unstained, and they are fit to come with me, dressed in white.
9. Revelation 3: 5
Anyone who proves victorious will be dressed, like these, in white robes; I shall not blot that name out of the book of life, but acknowledge it in the presence of my Father and his angels.
R.
Jesus promised St. Margaret Mary in the promises these things –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.
R.
Those who promote this devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus shall have their names written in His Heart never to be blotted out.And then He says in the Revelation.
Reference Revelation 3: 5-6
10. Hail Mary
The Scourging at the Pillar
1. R. Do we see Our Beloved Savior at the pillar? How at the pillar, He shed His Most Precious Blood that men would know Him and know His life, that He would give to them. And so in how many of His Churches today is He ignored? Look at Jesus at the pillar shedding His Blood. And it says in the Book of Revelations –
Revelation 3: 12
Anyone who proves victorious I will make into a pillar in the sanctuary of my God, and it will stay there for ever; I will inscribe on it the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem which is coming down from my God in heaven, and my own new name as well.
R.
And then He said in the message after my child took the picture on July 2nd, “the Blessed Mother appeared in the Sorrowful Mother statue with the sword in her heart.” And I received a message from Jesus on July 4th, and Jesus said that this picture is a sign that needed to circulate and He gave this message to go with that picture.Jesus:
“Peace will abound when nations, churches, families and individuals are consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.” July 4, 19962. R. In Revelation it says, “Anyone who proves victorious I will make into a pillar in the sanctuary of my God,” Revelation 3: 12 And He told me that the victor to which He speaks of is Fr. Carter, that will help lead the churches into renewal. One time, it was in January of 1995, I had a vision of Fr. Carter with his hand on the Church with a white robe on.
January 1995
R.
Before the 17th meeting in January of 1995, I had received the following vision when at Mass at the Cathedral of Saint Peter in Chains. It was either late December, 1994 or early January, 1995. I drew the picture in the notebook.It looks as follows:
The face was a flesh colored, but I could not see the features. The gown was white with a square neck.
The next day Jesus told me it was Father Carter. This vision along with another vision I had received about the same time appeared on the 17th book in January 1995.
The other vision was a church that looked similar to our church in China, Indiana, and in the front of the church was a gigantic Host with tremendous light coming forth from it.
On the cover was a Shepherd and the world.
end of excerptR.
And (we had a 17th meeting every month because Jesus told us to do that) I put the picture of Fr. Carter with his hand on the Church in front of this 17th booklet. And along with it was another vision that I had which was a picture of a Church with the Eucharist, huge, in the front part of the Church in the center. And it was tons of light that was coming off of the Eucharist because He said that the power is in the Eucharist. And then He said in a message on February 23rd of 1994 before the Shepherds of Christ ever started, that priests would create little cities, little powerhouses of His light. And as the Lord of Hosts Reigns on His throne, as He is adorned and worshipped, as He is given the greatest respect and love, as people’s hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and the priest’s heart is consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, that Church will be as a lamp stand. And His light will shine as a powerhouse in the dark night. And within our hearts as we are one in Him, we are the lights that shine in the dark world. He stood at the pillar and was beaten raw that we would share in His life and He gives to us, the living Word of God. And He speaks in the Blue Books about His life. The first line in the Blue Book, “My dear child, if you stay close to Me, then I live in you and you live in Me.” The whole Blue Book thing talking about Him and His life in us, and dwelling in us, and the Mass Book, in, in, in, in, in oneness, life is in Him. This is our mission to be as Christ lives in us. For it was St. Paul that said, ...I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me. Galatians 2: 19-203. Revelation 3: 20-21
Look, I am standing at the door, knocking. If one of you hears me calling and opens the door, I will come in to share a meal at that person’s side. Anyone who proves victorious I will allow to share my throne, just as I have myself overcome and have taken my seat with my Father on his throne.
R.
Look at it today. Christ stands at the door of the hearts and He knocks. Jesus came in a stable in Bethlehem. There was not room for Him in the Inn. In the hearts of men today when He comes again, there is not room in their hearts for God to come.Song:
A Song from JesusR.
And so Mary said in that message on December 19th, after she had appeared on December 17th, in Clearwater, she said: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 tapenow. Give it to as many people as you can. I am Mary, your Mother. Please circulate my Rosary Book.
end of excerpt4. R. As the Shepherds of Christ Movement spreads throughout the earth, as priests consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary through the Priestly Newsletter, through this instrument which Jesus has given to the priests to teach them to be Good Shepherds, Shepherds of Christ. As this spreads throughout the earth, the priests will shepherd their flock rightly. They will be as the Good Shepherd who would lay down their lives for their flock. And so Jesus stood at the pillar and His body was mutilated and the blood flew in the air, the Blood of the Lamb. And today we do not cherish this great life that God has given to us. We run from our Churches and giggle in the pews. We do not even see God many times, the God of Hosts, that gives Himself to us, in the Eucharist. This will only come when it is no longer the blind that is leading the blind, but when the priests are brought to the light of knowing God ever more deeply. All through the Scriptures it talks about this knowing, knowing and knowing, and the light and the blind and the dark and the whatever. We will not be children of Light until we dwell in Mary’s Heart and are brought forth as children of Light in the new era, there to dwell forever and ever in our true home, the Heart of Jesus.
5. Jesus: I give you Myself and I am ignored. The earth has angered My Father. Would it be that He wipes out the temples each Friday in order that men may wake up and live, truly live in God. They are as dead men many times. For they have given up the light I give them and they choose to walk in darkness. Sin can throw a heart into a heart that is dark. Guard your hearts, My beloved shepherds, for the devil wants you to sin and he wants to carry your heart off. He will tempt you and he will try you and he will try to get you to leave this Movement. I give to you My life. Satan is a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. He wants you to give in. Satan tempts and tries to get you to give in. For the road ahead, will be a road in which you must be the strongest soldiers rooted in Me. And you will carry My white flag across this earth as the soldiers of Light, as the soldiers of love, for the world has gone so far the other way. You will suffer, My shepherds, living in this world, for you are not like the world. You are as My Father has intended you to be, the children of Light that are leading the others home, home to My Heart.

That’s what the Father kept saying in that Father’s message that Jesus was revealing the Plan of the Father to us, that Jesus is the Son of God and that when Jesus speaks He is revealing the Father’s Plan.Excerpt from January 18, 1997
You must obey My directions, the directions given through My Son, Jesus for the unfolding of the Father’s plan... I am talking through these messages given by My Son and Mary to tell you how to accomplish this task of carrying out My plan. end of excerpt

8. John 17: 20-23 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. I have given them the glory you gave to me, that they may be one as we are one. With me in them and you in me, may they be so perfected in unity that the world will recognise that it was you who sent me and that you have loved them as you have loved me.

The Crowning with Thorns
1. R. There is a message that I got on October 1st. The home is the Heart of Christ. Is it not then the saga of the soul to search and to want nothing but the home that our Father gives to us? Is it not there that we shall sing a song of greatest joy?
Jesus:
Now I tell you this story: My child there was a thankless blind race that was given every treasure. And they squandered that which was useless and left the treasure to be forgotten. I am your light and your life and you do not treasure the gift of the Almighty God. You worship the molten calf and abuse the gift I give to you. You are a senseless, foolish race, a people of stiffs, of hardened hearts. Your home is far from you. You have ruined your own city. I give you a heart and a home to dwell in, a paradise, a temple, an epitome of gold. You are thankless. You are senseless. You are stupid and willful, oh My little children. I give you a garden of flowers and you run for a thistle bush and jump in. You scratch your skin and your hearts bleed and you cry and wail. But the home I give you, the treasure you seek is left like an empty vessel. You would trot and tear up the rich land and wallow in the muddy river. Your hearts are filled with dark and dingy dirt and you do not accept My light and My life.I am God and I give to you this story. The city will be lighted with My light. The walls of the city will be fortified with My love. I will dwell there in the greatest power and light. I will be the King on My Throne and they will be My people. They will bow down and worship Me. They will kiss the sanctuary floor. They will honor God, the Lamb of God slaughtered for the sins of men. The blood that pours forth from My pierced Heart has washed you. You are redeemed by the blood of the Lamb. The springs of life giving water will flow from the highest mountain as priests consecrated to My Heart will celebrate the Mass. Your sufferings are far from ended. The blocks to My Father’s Plan will continue. Your Movement must pray for the Jesuits. A thankless race will force My hand to come down.
2. R. Jesus is in the tabernacle in the consecrated host. He is on His throne. But look at Jesus as He is crowned with thorns so many years ago as He sat on the throne. See His body. See Him vividly. See the men come up and spit on Him and say cruel things to Him. And now see Jesus in the tabernacle. Is He treated as a King? Is He worshipped and honored? He is the King on His Throne today, but we have treated Him with indifference. We have locked our churches. Many churches have been sold. And what of the place where the tabernacle once was, in these churches. Why should He not rock a few temples in order to get the attention of the people, if it would even do that. But the main emphasis is always the building, is always the land, is always what? On this particular Basilica, there’s a picture of St. Francis and St. Clare and there’s a crack right through them. And then the second earthquake, it just destroyed the pictures immensely. But it’s similar to Fr. Carter writing this Priestly Newsletter and the other writings in the Blue Book and the Mass Book are like these writings. It is truly God’s Plan that these writings were given to help renew the Church and the world. And the devil is blocking them. St. Francis was sent to rebuild the Church. And then we’re trying so hard to pray for the priests, to do what God is saying. He’s trying to get the messages to the priests of how they can be Shepherds of Christ. And it’s like we’re met with the greatest opposition. He is not pleased with this opposition. The fact that we need to circulate the Mass Book. It needs to have the Imprimatur on it. He is not pleased with the fact that we have suffered so much in trying to spread His writings and trying to spread His Movement. We must pray fervently to Our Father, in the name of Jesus, hourly, as He says. We must pray at the hours of 3, 6, 9 and 12, because Jesus said the other day that He is protecting us with His Precious Blood. That He is dressing us. He talks about dressing us in white garments. But we want that seal of protection. He said He will dress the Movement in His Precious Blood when we pray those prayers at 3, 6, 9, and 12. Did you hear this the other day when I said it? Fr. Carter says the prayers at 3, 6, 9, and 12 all the time. If he can’t say the prayers, he’ll just say the things that you need to pray for, for holy priests, for the people in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, for the Priestly Newsletter and the finances, for the human family. Ask St. Michael to help us, our guardian angel and tell Jesus and Mary we give Them our heart and then say, “please, please, dress the Movement in Your Precious Blood. Please dress us in Your Precious Blood”. I keep thinking this is why I’m suffering so much is because I maybe am not doing that as much as I should. I keep trying to, but it’s been so hard lately to do it every 3, 6, 9, and 12. But it takes practice. And that’s what He’s doing. He's telling us so that we’ll be “practiced up” so that this protection will be on the Movement and on ourselves. He’ll just keep letting us suffer until we do what’s in the messages. That’s what He said He was going to do.

5. Jesus: You have experienced great suffering over the past weeks. It is important to the Movement and to the world, that you continue to pray hourly and that you pray at the hours of 3, 6, 9 and 12. Satan does not want you to pray. He will attack you so that you will be focused on yourselves and your imperfections. I tell you this, you must remain in the state of grace and pray with the most fervent hearts for your prayers are prayers that weigh heavy in Heaven. My beloved ones, if you have been tested it is because the time is at hand for the decision by the Jesuits. Satan is trying you and trying you. I am asking you to be pure and to pray in this purity. If you have sinned, you must confess your sins and continue to pray. Satan will try and try and try you for the days ahead will be days of great importance to your Movement. You must not look at yourselves and see the imperfections as blocks to your spirituality. You must pray with all your heart to be made pure and to be holy. Do not dwell on your imperfections. Come to My Mass and die to yourselves that you will be made holy. My beloved ones, do not focus on your faults. Focus on being kind, loving and telling God that you are sorry when you have sinned. I want your heart. I want you to come to Me as you are, that I may love you and bathe you in My love.

The Carrying of the Cross
l. R. Jesus was handed over to the hands of men and this is how Scripture went. And how do we treat our Beloved God? Do we treat Him with honor and reverence and love?
2. Jesus: I give you this story: The city of Zion is the womb of the woman and her children, the ones who dwell there. Sing this song of Zion. They sing the songs for she takes them to their rightful home in My Heart. When they dwell in foreign lands they are sad. They seek false treasures that do not bring them joy. They bring them false joy. Their lives are rooted in falsehoods not in truth. They worship the molten calf and their hearts are far from Me. Foxes have lairs, birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no where to lay his head. Can He dwell in the hearts of the foolish ones, the virgins who had no oil for their lamps? Do you go to the home I have prepared for you or the home of your own creation? Your buildings will be burned and you will still seek the molten calf and I stand before you clothed in the garments of new life. Life is not found in the molten calf. It is found in the Eucharistic Heart of the Son of God. It is through My pierced Heart the grace will flow copiously on the world through the hands of priests whose hearts are consecrated to My Heart.
3. R. The Son of Man has no where to lay His head. “Comeafter Me”, He said, “Come to My Heart”, He says, “I will live in you and you will live in Me”. And they say, “Let me bury my father first.” Jesus said to him, “Let the dead bury their dead. Come away and proclaim the Kingdom of God”. The wedding feast was set. The bridegroom was ready for the bride but they did not come to the feast. It was the wedding of the Lamb and they buried their dead. He said to them, “Come to My Heart and I will dwell in you and you will dwell in Me and I will be your God and you will be My people”. And they went to bury the dead. To the one man who entered, He was cast in the streets for not wearing the proper attire. For the banquet of the Lamb is prepared. But the faithful do not come for they are blind and willful.
4. R. To be the bride of the Lamb we must come with a gown that is white and that is pure.
5. Jesus: When you pray and you are deeply rooted in My Heart, My beloved ones, the prayers raise to the high heavens and they are heard. You must pray, My beloved ones, from your heart. You must dwell in My Heart.
6. R. Are our prayers heartfelt prayers? Or are they prayers that we mumble quickly and then run away?
7. Jesus: Look at your world, oh Jerusalem. Look at the world and see the people of this day. They are people that worship Me with their lips only. I am a God that wants to live in their hearts. It is to you, My beloved ones, I give the key through the consecration, the priests will come to My Heart and dwell therein through the Priestly Newsletter, through the consecration that I give to them in this document. I am asking you to pray fervently and to spread this, this, My instrument, to the far ends of the earth. For it is in this instrument that I give to you, that it will greatly bring about the Reign of My Sacred Heart.
8. R. We did not stand beside Him as He hung on the cross. We did not stand next to Him as He was taken from the ground after He fell three times. We were not there but in our hearts we know depth into these mysteries because we have dwelt within His Heart. And He has revealed them to us majorly in these writings. It is now, today, that we stand beneath the cross of Christ. And we look up to Him and we see at one point, Jesus, who is covered with blood and wounds and His mouth moves but no one pays Him heed.
And as we turn we see the Jesus now that is victorious and covered with light and we hear the Father speak, “This is My Beloved Son, listen to Him.” He is speaking to us, the Father, through the Son in these revelations. And whether or not the world hears or not, He is warning us of the events to come and they will happen whether the world knows or not. On Tuesday and Wednesday I experienced greatly the sufferings that He allowed me to experience and what He would do. And then that Friday, someone told me about the Basilica that was leveled or whatever happened to it. But inside I know what He speaks and I know what He tells me and I know the Heart of Jesus that wants to be loved and adored by the people that go to His altar and receive Him. And I ask you please, to please be fervent in all that you are doing for we are isolated from the rest of the world and it is very difficult. But it is as in that prayer, Jesus’ prayer to the Father that He said, “They are not like the world”. “And so I gave them My Word and the world hated them.”

Song: A Song from Jesus
Jesus Died on the Cross
l. John 19: 25-27
Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala. Seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing near her, Jesus said to his mother, ‘Woman, this is your son.’ Then to the disciple he said, ‘This is your mother.’ And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.
2. Reference John 19: 28-30
3. John 19: 31-34
It was the Day of Preparation, and to avoid the bodies’ remaining on the cross during the Sabbath—since that Sabbath was a day of special solemnity—the Jews asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken away. Consequently the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with him and then of the other. When they came to Jesus, they saw he was already dead, and so instead of breaking his legs one of the soldiers pierced his side with a lance; and immediately there came out blood and water.
4. R. It is through His pierced Heart that the sacramental life of the Church was born.
5. John 19: 35-37
This is the evidence of one who saw it—true evidence, and he knows that what he says is true—and he gives it so that you may believe as well. Because all this happened to fulfil the words of scripture: Not one bone of his will be broken; and again, in another place scripture says: They will look to the one whom they have pierced.
6. R. And we will know truly someday that all that He gives to us is the truth. For He wants to be worshipped and loved and adored by the people. It will be an earth in which God will be their God and they will be His people and each one of you present here He has called to help to bring about this new earth. Though small in number it does not matter when the Might of God is behind us. And when we dwell in His Heart, He acts, in us, in this world.
Song: A Song from Jesus
7. Jesus: You will be taunted and pressed on. You will want to run away and you will want to give up. You must remain in Me to the bitter end. For it is in the end that it will be your endurance that will make the difference to so many souls. At this time you are being tried and tested and you are being taught, My beloved ones, for this is your testing ground. This is the stage that I have set to teach you the lessons that you will need to know to help to bring My Light to the darkness. Do not be afraid for I walk with you. As I walked on this earth, I walk with you this day in your every breath and your every heartbeat. I am so intimately united to you. You must open up your heart and let Me live in you.
R.
Through Him, with Him and in Him in the unity of the Holy Spirit, we are one in Him with the Almighty God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit, that live and dwell within us, when we are in the state of grace.8.
R. And they worshipped the molten calf. There were so many things that they had for their gods and they thought that the Lord had turned His head the other way. But His head was straight up and down when I saw it on the crucifix. I saw His head straight. His head on the crucifixes are turned toward His shoulder but He sees all the deeds that men perform and He knows and reads their hearts and nothing will go unnoticed. For He is the Almighty God, a just God that will pay all rightfully according to their deeds. And He gives to us a great treasure and He gives to us a sharing in His Divine life and the treasure that He gives is treated with great indifference by these men, the creatures of this earth. For they worshipped a molten calf. But the secret is this word. Men will have the light and will know Him when they give their hearts to Mary’s heart. Mary is the woman clothed with the sun, adorned in light and Mary will take her children into this age of light. As we meditate on the mysteries of the rosary, we must focus on the lives of Jesus and Mary alive in our life today. When we read the Scriptures today the Word of God is living in us. Where as before we may have experienced it with much difficulty. It is alive in our hearts. We are fed with His Word.
September 4, 2004
Jesus:
So when you are taunted and you are pressed on, My beloved ones, go to My Word and read the Word of God and I will refresh you and bring you light.9.
R. For the Word of God was very difficult for me to comprehend before. It has become my very life.10.
R. I opened its pages and felt like a blind man staring at the page. Today, I open the pages and it is alive in my heart.After Hail Mary:
R.
And God gave Himself to us on the cross and He hung there with the good thief and the bad thief. And there was a tree, the tree of good and evil. And this is how it is today in our life. At every moment there is a moment in which we can do the will of God or we can do a willful act of our own choosing against His will. For at every second we choose as if picking fruit off the tree between the good fruit and the bad fruit. And this second, and this moment, what will be the Will of God for me?Jesus:
But it is today, My beloved ones, that you will be pressed on by satan and it is in My grace you will be able to withstand the torture that he gives to you. You must come to the tabernacle. You must pray as frequently as possible. For you will be tested and tried and you will want to cry out and scream but you must not, not run away. If you lose your patience, you must come to Me. You must say that you are sorry. You must love and work with one another. You are My people, My little family. If you do not love, who will I send? You are My family. Who is My brother? Who is My Mother? Anyone who does the will of the Father.R.
We are brothers and sisters. We are brothers of Christ.Sing:
