    September 22, Thursday, 1994   (Father Carter was diagnosed with cancer 
                                                        6 years later on September 22, 2000)

God the Father speaks:     My little child, I speak to you as I have in
                                        the past and you would not receive My messages,
                                        you told yourself God the Father speaks to
                                        no man. I have spoken to you many
                                        times in the past and you were afraid
                                        to write it.

                                            I am your Father my beloved child, I
                                        speak to you to tell you My love. I am
                                        the most loving Father, come and sit
                                        on My lap and be close to Me.

                                            I want to hold you as My little
                                        child and pour My love out to you.

                                            Do not be afraid, for I am forever
                                        in your heart, loving you.

                                            I am your Father I come to give you
                                        the love you need most.

                                            I am your Father little one, come
                                        to Me.

Messenger:        Saw a vision of trees -
                        so peaceful and calm -
                        ready to bloom, light,
                        but no bright light.

                           The Father created the glistening
                        trees, in the spring they are ready
                        to bud.

God the Father speaks:     You My child are ready
                                        to bud with such love of the one
                                        Triune God. Look at the trees glistening
                                        in the light, not too much light, not
                                        bright light, just light and glistening
                                        trees. Calmness, subdued light,
                                        a feeling of immense peace and joy.

                                        Peace and joy will be yours My child, 
                                        be wrapped in
the embrace of the one 
                                        Triune God.
Look at the trees, soft, 
                                        created by the
hand of God. 
                                        A little budding on the
branches. 
                                        Room for so much growth.

                                        What glory to watch these trees grow
                                        in the glory of the Lord. They will be
                                        in full bloom. They will turn their
                                        leaves and grow in the love of the
                                        Father who created each tree with
                                        such love. He loves you as His very
                                        own special child. Look at the trees,
                                        so peaceful, so calm, so young in their
                                        life. Such potential to grow. Such
                                        potential to be full of the life that
                                        makes them grow. Come to the living
                                        waters of your faith. Feed on the water
                                        and bathe in the sunlight.  Your days
                                        of prosperity are at hand. As you grow
                                        in the love of God your heart is
                                        quieted and you know the peace and joy
                                        that only His love can bring.

                                            Look at yourself as the little trees
                                        ready to sprout into fullness. The fullness
                                        of the life of God flowing in its very roots.
                                        As your roots are nourished, as your branches
                                        bake in the basking sun, as you grow
                                        more and more in our love, you will be this
                                        mighty oak. You will grow to such heights
                                        and strength you will not topple in the wind,
                                        you will not lose your leaves to the frost,
                                        you will bask in My sun and grow to full
                                        maturity in My love. I am the Almighty
                                        God and I have chosen you to full
                                        nurturing in My love.

            Jesus speaks:        Bathe before Me in front of My tabernacle
                                        and soak in My light. It feeds you and
                                        makes you grow. As you bathe in My
                                        light you drink and eat of My
                                        Body and Blood. Daily, you come and
                                        you are fed on My very own flesh.

                                            This child is life for the soul, this is
                                        participation in My life. It is in
                                        My life you are made whole. Nothing
                                        provides this life, but God. Pray for
                                        the grace to know and love Me. Pray,
                                        pray, pray, be empty, be open,
                                        Come and bake in the sunlight of My
                                        Heart. I shine from the tabernacle,
                                        sweet one, I wait there for you.

                                            Do not think you do not need to come,
                                        though I dwell deep in your soul, you
                                        are nourished by My Body and Blood, My
                                        presence is forever with you, but
                                        I am waiting for you to sit with
                                        Me in front of the tabernacle.

                                            Your interior union will grow
                                        with Me as the mighty oak that is rooted
                                        so strongly in the ground. Your life in Me
                                        is alive and vibrant, but it will be
                                        enhanced by the fire of the love of
                                        God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Mary
                                        forever with you and leading you into
                                        such loving union with all Three
                                        Persons.

                                            Oh child such joy I have to share with
                                        you. I give you so freely My life and My gifts.
                                        I long to be forever united in such
                                        union with you. Let go of the world and
                                        your fears and focus only on Me.

                                             I am the way, the truth and the life.
                                        I never leave you My beloved child. Place
                                        all you love in My Heart. I will never
                                        abandon you. You must trust
                                        totally in Me.

                                             I am Jesus, Savior of this world and
                                        life to your soul. Feast on My Body
                                        and Blood for I come to you.

                                             Do not look only My children, for gifts in
                                        this world, come to Me and let Me pour out
                                        the gifts only God can give you. I give
                                        you a sharing in My life. This life
                                        is a vibrant force within your soul,
                                        it is not dry and inactive, it is alive and
                                        well formed in Me. Oh sweet one, do
                                        not ever lose heart, I move not an
                                        inch from you. I watch you daily,
                                        minute by minute. Live in Me
                                        that your life will be made whole.
                                        I am your God. I love you with
                                        the most enduring love. Come and
                                        let Me give you My life.

            Messenger:              And He gave them new life inside their
                                        souls. Their hearts were quieted, their
                                        bodies surrendered and they lived
                                        in the love of God. Alleluia.

Shepherds of Christ

A Spirituality Newsletter for Priests

September/October 1994

CONTENTS

 


 

Chief Shepherd of the Flock

I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd is one who 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 and runs away as soon as he sees a wolf coming, and then the wolf attacks and scatters the sheep; this is 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. (Jn 10:11-151)

A faithful shepherd takes care of his sheep in all their needs. This includes providing them with the proper food. Jesus, the perfect Shepherd, abundantly provides for the nourishment of His flock. In the Eucharist He gives Himself in His body, blood, soul, and divinity for our spiritual growth. He also feeds us through His word, through His teaching. The gospel of John, in chapter 6: 35-59, combines both of these ways—Christ nourishing us through His teaching and through the Eucharist. This particular section of John’s gospel gives us Jesus’ great discourse on the Bread of Life. The first part, verses 35-50, speaks of the teaching of Jesus as nourishment, as the bread of life. This first part contains, therefore, the so-called sapiential theme. The second part, verses 51-59, speaks of the Eucharist as our heavenly nourishment. This part, therefore, contains the sacramental theme.

Both aspects of the Bread of Life theme reveal God’s tremendous love for us. The Eucharist is the sacrament of Jesus’ great love for us, and His teaching is summed up in terms of love—God’s overwhelming love for us and our duty to love God and neighbor in return. Each day we should pray for an increased realization of how much God, in Christ Jesus, loves each of us with a most special, unique love. Growing in this awareness and living according to this awareness are the keys to growth in the spiritual life. The more we are convinced of how much Christ loves us as unique individuals, the more able are we to enter into a deep love relationship with Jesus. And if we have the proper love relationship with Jesus, everything else falls into place. Yes, as our union with Jesus grows, He leads us, amid all the pain and all the joy, to a closer union with the Father in the Holy Spirit with Mary, our Mother, at our side.

 


 

Cardinal Bernardin On Priests as Shepherds

“One of the most beautiful images of Christ is that of shepherd. In chapter 10 of John’s gospel Jesus calls Himself the good shepherd and explains what this means. The good shepherd, He says, finds pasture for his sheep; he brings back to the fold those who have strayed; if necessary, he lays down his life for them…

“The image of shepherd supports and enriches the concept of priest as servant. The Bishop’s Committee on Priestly Life and Ministry strongly emphasized this concept in As One Who Serves. The priest, the committee stated, ‘is to be a servant of the People of God, holding them accountable for what they have been and can be. He serves them by calling forth leadership and coordinating ministries. His is a service which calls the people to remember and to celebrate the presence and power of the Risen Lord. In the fullest sense, he is a servant of the human family.’

“Our hearts must be moved with pity when we see people who are suffering, whose lives are empty, who are searching vainly for meaning. Through our ministry and our presence, we must do all we can to bring them the riches of the gospel, so that they will come to know the Lord and experience His love and peace in their lives. This is the shepherd’s work. This is our work as priests who follow in the footsteps of the Good Shepherd and carry on His mission.

“A priest, because of the Person he represents and the message he brings, is one whose ministry is expected to bring people joy, consolation, and hope. Admittedly, a priest cannot remove all the pain and frustration which are part of the human condition. But this ministry can help people cope better with trials and sufferings by seeing them in the light of the Transcendent. While we are obliged to do all we can to promote a better life in this world by building a society rooted in justice and love, in the final analysis our earthly accomplishments and their immediate joys and sorrows are transitory. The ultimate fulfillment of all we attempt, the lasting remedy for all we suffer, lies in life eternal.

“My personal experience convinces me that what people actually want and need is usually much less complex and spectacular than we sometimes imagine. People are not looking for religious leaders who can solve all their problems or answer all their questions. Often they know the answers already; or they know their problem has no immediate solution. More than anything else, people look to us who minister to them for our presence as loving, caring, and forgiving people. They want our help in their efforts to handle pain and frustration. They look to us for understanding; they seek a sensitive and consoling response to their hurt feelings; they need the spiritual comfort we can bring through our ministry of word and sacrament. They want someone who will pray with them, whose presence will remind them that, no matter what their difficulties might be, God really loves them and cares for them. They want assurance that God will never abandon them. This is the preferred style of spiritual leadership in our day.”2

                         I received the following message.

                 That day Mary appeared and I received
                     many meditations on the rosary and
                     the seven sorrows. All of these
                     are recorded.

                 Father Carter wrote a Newsletter the same
                     time January, February 1995.

                 We were very connected in our writings
                     and what Jesus was telling each of
                     us, Father Carter and me, even though
                     he wrote his Newsletter from Jesus,
                     and Mary appeared to me and Marty
                     and my children and Harold and
                     Diane, and Diane's parents were
                     present at the rosary. There is

Message from February 5, 1995

Messenger:         My heart was so upset yesterday, I am so frustrated, 
                        Jesus tells me things, Jesus talks from my mouth, 
                        people do not have time to listen.

    Immense pain in front of the tabernacle Saturday morning 6:45 a.m., So frustrated, so much pain.

    Today went to tabernacle, so much pain, wanted to be one with Him so bad, immense heart ache beyond words, so deep, then my heart slipped into His Heart and I rested in His Heart for one hour and thirty minutes, I did not want it to end.

    I still feel intense frustration, to talk to Him and Mary all day and people do not have time to listen.

    Time is so short. He wants to be obeyed. Mary’s messages during the rosary are so important. My frustration is that they are being overlooked. I saw her head moving last night. She was illuminated for over one and one-half hours. Her face also had movement. At the end of the Seven Sorrows we blew out the candles and Jesus’ picture illuminated as those lights that glow in the dark. Especially around His Heart, the ends of the picture and His head.

    He moved His mouth. He wanted the litany said.

Jesus speaks:  My children of this world do not listen to Me. 

I come, Mary comes, people are too busy with their lives. I, in My might, will rock this earth. I tell you, I want these messages published. You think your world needs what you are doing? Your world needs these meditations on My life and that of My Mother’s. Men’s hearts will turn to the love of God through these meditations.

    I will rock this earth. You tarry too much. I want the Blue Books published and circulated. I have spoken, I have spoken, I have begged, I have pleaded. I can in a moment take your breath from you. I have asked and pleaded. You worry for details. You do things your own way. I want the Blue Book published and given away. You do not listen because you do your own will.

    I am Jesus Christ, I am God. I speak to you. You have time for other things and not for My messages. I am talking to you. I am calling out. I have called, I have called, I have knocked down the walls -- you do not comprehend that I am talking to you here. You do not listen. You do not have time to read these messages. I want this work accomplished. I will see that My work is accomplished. These messages need to be published. I am calling out an urgent alert. I will rock this earth and you will know My might. You will know I speak here. You, in your busy lives, play your games with Me. I am telling you that My patience is wearing thin. To press on My messenger is not opening your hearts. I am dealing with you. These are My messages to you. Ignore Me and you will suffer. How do I tell you -- you ignore My letters! You do not have time to read them. You do not pay heed to the rosary messages. These messages are so important to My Church.

    Play your games, souls will be lost. You hold the mighty medicine to turn souls to My burning love. You take this so lightly. I can rock this earth. For one month before the earthquake I told you that the earth would crack -- you do not listen. I want the January 19th message published separately.

    I am Jesus Christ. I have spoken. I am ignored. Mary is appearing as Our Lady of Light each day and I am giving you messages for this world. I beg you to take Me seriously. Your delays are unnecessary. You will suffer. You are suffering at the Center now for not publishing the Third Blue Book that I started in March, 1994. If these messages do not circulate, your workers will remain divided until they do -- you ignored My words. Your problem would be resolved if you read these letters. All the answers are in these letters. I will rock this earth. Since the middle of December I have been pressing down in My message -- no one pays Me heed.

    If you do not read the letters, how do I get your attention? You are too busy. I want these letters circulated, I want the letters published, I want the letters read. I will rock this earth. I do not get any response from you. What do I do to shake you? I can knock down the walls, I can rock the earth. I ask you gently to take Me seriously. I am Jesus. My cry is for the souls that are hungry for My love. I am pouring out My love to them and you are holding up My messages, My Mother’s meditations -- you have put these letters off. Satan is doing everything to stop their publication. These are the letters that will turn men’s hearts to the power of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus Christ.

    I have been patient. I have waited. The big boom was March 22, 1994 -- for one month I begged, I pleaded, I told you I would rock the earth. I can remove your blocks. I want these letters to be published and circulated. I am God. I am speaking here. I am Jesus. I am speaking here. My Mother is speaking here. We are being ignored and put off. Your city will shine with the light of My love when you circulate these letters.

    The power is in the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. I beg you to listen to Me. I am God. I want these messages heeded. I want them supported. I want them to circulate and be published. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I beg you to listen to Me. I want My messenger to speak. I am using her as a tool to give My message to this world. I want this message out. I will get it out. It is My message for the world. I ask gently, you delay, you worry for details, you do not obey. Time is so short. People need these messages. The power is in prayer. The power of prayer, fixed to the burning Heart of Jesus, is so powerful. I want union with souls. You will not let go and come to My tabernacle and sit after Communion. You cannot do this job without My power. I have spoken. You need to pray fervently to the Holy Spirit. I beg you to listen. I beg, I beg, I beg. I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. These are My messages of love for this world!

    Shepherds of Christ

    A Spirituality Newsletter for Priests

    January/February 1995

    CONTENTS

 


     

    Chief Shepherd of the Flock

I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd is one who 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 and runs away as soon as he sees a wolf coming, and then the wolf attacks and scatters the sheep; this is 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. (Jn 10:11-151)

Yes, out of His great love for us, the Good Shepherd laid down His life for us. Love for His Father and for us led the Good Shepherd to the brutal death on the cross. The Incarnation is, indeed, centered in love. Our insight into the Christ-event deepens as we consider it in the light of love. The Father has given us a sign of His love for us in Jesus. Jesus Himself is this sign of the Father’s love—a lavish sign, an unmistakable sign, an irrevocable sign, a perfect sign. We are meant, then, to understand the meaning of the Son’s becoming man in terms of love. We are to draw from the riches contained in the Christ-event in terms of love. We live Jesus, we live the Christ-event, in proportion to our acceptance of God’s love and our own return of love. As we grow in love of God and neighbor, we give greater witness to the Incarnation, which is a work of God’s love. Jesus reveals His Heart to remind us of all this. His pierced Heart, symbol of God’s overwhelming love for us, calls for our love of God and neighbor in return.

 


 

Reflections on Love

The above thoughts give us an occasion to offer various reflections on love:

 


 

The Priest and Friendship

One of the ways all of us experience love—both giving and receiving love—is through friendship. The Directory on the Ministry and Life of Priests offers some thoughts on the priest and friendship: “The capacity to develop and profoundly live priestly friendship is a source of serenity and joy in the exercise of the ministry, a decisive support in difficulties and a valuable help in the growth of pastoral charity. Priests must exercise this friendship in a particular way precisely towards those brothers most in need of understanding, help and support.”3

Friendship is one of God’s greatest gifts. It is a type of personal relationship that befits any age and any vocation. One of the beauties of friendship is the special type of love that is involved. Two people become friends and remain friends because they mutually want to do so. In friendship, there are no juridical bonds as there are in marriage and family life. In real friendship, this special freedom that both parties possess regarding the initiation and maintenance of the relationship does not instigate insecure feelings, but rather enhances the relationship with a special kind of splendor.

One of the beauties of friendship is the obvious fact that a person may have more than one friend. A person should not view multiple friendships as being in competition with one another. A person’s various authentic friendships, all providing their own opportunities for growth, clothe the person with a maturing richness of personality that increasingly contributes to the health of each of the friendships in particular.

Close friends stand side by side and together walk the path of life. Secure in each other’s acceptance and love, each feels a sense of relief that one does not need to maintain any kind of facade. Each is encouraged to be and to become according to the real, true self. Far from hampering the proper unfolding and developing of each one’s personality, the friendship offers many diverse opportunities for the maturing of each other’s uniqueness. Indeed, each person feels that without the other he or she may not have grown in certain ways at all.

Close friends share many things. They share life’s ideals and goals, for example, and in this sharing feel encouraged to achieve a greater realization of these ideals and goals. Close friends share each other’s sorrows, and in this sharing the sorrows become more bearable. Close friends share each other’s failures, and in this sharing they gain the strength to rise and try again. Close friends also share each other’s successes, and in this sharing are encouraged to fulfill more and more their mission, their work in life.

Each of us, then, has many reasons to thank God for the wonderful gift of friendship, for, indeed, friendship in so many diverse ways has helped us to be and to become. In so many diverse ways, the gift of friendship has helped us to live the paschal mystery of death and resurrection. Truly, it has helped us bear the dark, the difficult, the worrisome aspect of life with greater equanimity. Likewise, it has helped us experience the bright, the pleasant, the exuberant side of life with greater joy.

We should always remember that all of our friendships should be rooted in Christ. To put it another way, our very friendship with Jesus is the source for our ability to be true friends with others. And, of course, our friendship with Jesus is centered in love. This friend Jesus shows each of us His Heart as a reminder of how much He loves each one of us with the most unique and special love. And He longs for our love in return. What a privilege! Yes, what a privilege it is to be invited by the Incarnate Son of God to have the deepest friendship with Himself. Jesus has left us these beautiful and awe-inspiring words: “I shall not call you servants any more, because a servant does not know his master’s business; I call you friends, because I have made known to you everything I have learned from My Father.” (Jn 15:15).

Message for Shepherds of Christ Members from Mary

Mary speaks: My beloved Shepherds of Christ Members, I am Mary your Mother. Very soon I will end my messages to this world. I have chosen you as my special messengers to reach the children of the world. The children need to see other children praying.

Messenger: We are teaching our children in our homes about everything and so little about God. We share all the mechanics of the computer and television, telephones, everything that is so complicated. The children are taught such incidental information and are often not taught about the love of God.

        Do we share with our children our most intimate experiences with Jesus? We have spent our whole lives growing in our spiritual life but we keep much of this most valuable information to ourselves.

Mary speaks: I am Mary, Your Mother. You are the parents of America. Teach your children about God. Teach them to pray the rosary. Teach them to consecrate their hearts to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. I am calling out to my parents in the Shepherds of Christ Movement to reach your children with the love of God. I am asking you to encourage your children to join the Junior Shepherds of Christ movement and begin to pray the prayers of Consecration in your homes every day as a family. There will be peace in your homes and in your hearts when you consecrate your homes and your hearts to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

        Children need to pray the rosary and be taught about our lives. How can a child model their life after our lives when they do not know about our lives? I am asking you to help man the forces and have my little army of children ready and marching on this earth. The weapon is their rosary, to help fight off Satan. Their hearts consecrated to our Hearts will lead them steadfastly ahead into the darkness that has clouded the youth in this country.

        Children need to pray. Children are given such bad examples. Children do not see other children praying and loving God. I am asking you parents in America to encourage your children to join the Junior Shepherds of Christ Movement.

        When children's hearts are consecrated to our Hearts they will fill this world with the light of God's love. Contact the children, the priests and religious and you will help save this world.

        The mighty medicine for this world is the burning love of my Son, Jesus. Will you help me contact the children and tell them how His Heart burns for love of them.

May 18, 2001 Message continues

Messenger:     Mary did not speak as she once did in the rosaries
                    during the year 1996. Finally on August 13, 1996 she spoke
                    and there was many visions there that day at Tom's Farm.

 

 

May 18, 2001 message continues

Messenger:   Then I received the famous Mary's message two weeks later
                     at Tom's Farm during the August 27, 1996 Tuesday Shepherd
                     of Christ Prayer Meeting.

                      On December 12, 1996, Mary and Jesus told me to put 
                    Mary's message on a tape and entitle it Mary's message. 
                    Mary appeared five day later on the
building in Clearwater.

 


 
Sorrowful MotherMary's Message from the Rosary of August 27, 1996

Mary speaks: I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.

Messenger:  Jesus appeared several times transfigured 
                        in early January 1996. He appeared

                        greatest light in the front of

                        Holy Cross - Immaculata Church.

My Specially Chosen Shepherds

Messenger:   I will take all those who need love into my heart and go to the heart of Mary and dwell entirely in her heart. I take all those I know who need special prayer to the heart of their Mother and she mothers their spiritual life and coaxes them to come home to the Heart of her Son.

        We will be one flock with one Shepherd. If all of us, the Shepherds of Christ, took our loved ones and those in need of special prayers, to the heart of Mary and gave them to her, she, the Immaculate Heart, would call them and lead them to the Heart of her Son.

        For we are not alone in this world. We are living in God's world. He gives to us a sharing in His Divine Life in Baptism. For those who have been given this sharing in His Divine Life and have cut themselves off from the source of life by sin, we bring them to their mother and we give them to her. She loves them as the tenderest mother and bids them to come home to Jesus. She will call them for us. It is up to us to bring them to her heart through our prayers.

 

 

January 29, 1996 message continues

Jesus speaks: Oh Shepherds of Christ, My chosen network of apostles spreading My love and the love of My mother to this world. It is in your consecration to Our Hearts that you have been granted special privileges from Me and My mother to be able to bring your loved ones to Our Hearts. We allow you to bring us the hearts that need deeply our love because you have given your hearts to us in a special way. Many of your beloved brothers and sisters have cut themselves off from the source of real life and Mary their mother will call them gently home to My Heart.

        Do not underestimate the power of your prayers when you are consecrated to Our Hearts.

        My movement, Shepherds of Christ, is a network of specially chosen souls that I  have given and am giving great graces to, to draw them into the deepest union with Me.

        All members of this movement are receiving these special graces to live in Our Hearts. I will live in them in a very special way in this world today. You must consecrate your hearts daily to Our Hearts. Live this consecration all through the day. Unite it with the Mass throughout the world. Give yourselves to the Father united in the greatest act of love, the giving of Myself to My Father. How pleased is the Father when you unite yourselves with My Sacrifice to Him.

        I want your total giving of yourselves to Me. It is in this giving of yourselves that you dwell ever more deeply in My Heart and I dwell in this world in you. Pray throughout the day the Prayer for Union with Jesus.

        Consecration is giving yourself to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

        It is in this consecration you will live dwelling entirely in Mary's heart and the Holy Spirit will sanctify you. He will mold you more into the God-like image the Father intended you to be.

        I am the way, the truth, and the life.

        It is in dwelling in the heart of Mary, her pure and sinless heart, that she takes you to the deepest part of My Heart, the deep red cavern of My burning love. It is in this deep penetration that you unite deeply to My heavenly Father.

        Oh beloved, the Mass, lived in your daily lives, the union of your hearts with the Consecration of the Mass, God giving Himself to you and you giving yourself to Him in this most intimate act of love between God and man, how this Sacrifice pleases the Father. The more you give yourself to God the deeper this relationship becomes. Die to yourselves as I died on the cross that you will live in Me in all your actions.

        I am Jesus. I call for total consecration of your hearts, My specially chosen Shepherds. Come and dwell in the heart of Mary and give yourself as a sacrifice to God. A sacrifice is an offering. Offer all your joys, sorrows and love to Him.

Messenger: Oh Hearts of Jesus and Mary, let us see more and more that dwelling in your Hearts is truly our heaven on earth. It is in giving ourselves to God that we will know more and more His rapturous love.

        ...And He took me to the deepest chambers of His Heart and in that embrace I knew the presence of the Almighty God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. I was enveloped by love itself and I knew no fear, I was one, in Him and I could feel the heat of His love.

Jesus speaks: This is rapture. I want this deep love with you, My chosen Shepherds that you may dwell forever in this fiery furnace of My endless love. It is in giving yourselves you will be bathed by My Divine Love. In this union you will know the Father's Love. The Holy Spirit will permeate your being with the active fire of God's love. Love is action from the heart, come and dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and live in celestial bliss.

Messenger: ...And He took me to the deepest recesses of His Heart and I touched eternity... the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, our little heaven on Earth.

Jesus speaks: Come to the Heart of My Mother and she will lead you home.

Prayer

        Oh Mary, Immaculate, take me to your Heart, that I may dwell there. I give myself to you.

        Oh Heart of Jesus, I give you myself, TAKE ME, ALL OF ME, all my faults, all of my strong points, all of my joys and sorrows, bathe me in your love and let me unite in deepest love to God.

        Holy Spirit, actively work on me in the Heart of my beloved Mother. Permeate my being with the fire of God's love, that I am sanctified and changed more into the image of my beloved Jesus.

        Father, I unite myself to the sacrifice of your Son being offered in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world. I give myself, united to Jesus, to You. I love You, I love You, I love You, my precious God.

February 16, 1997

Message from the Father for Shepherds of Christ apostles:

    I am the Father. I am speaking to you. You must write. You hear Me speaking to you in audible words in your heart.

    My Plan will unfold at the Holy Spirit Center. Men were willful and blocked this Plan.

    Do you, in your core group, believe you must open your hearts wide to all of these great revelations I am giving you through the Sacred Heart of My Son, Jesus, the Son of God, made man, Who died on the cross for love of you?

    Do you hear Me speak clearly to you? The veil will be lifted. I am giving to you this great gift, God's Blue Books and Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and all of Fr. Carter's publications. In these writings I will reveal to the world the secrets not revealed before in human history. I will write My words plainly on their hearts through the 20 books of revelations and Fr. Carter's publications. I am plainly giving a word of God to the people. Tell My people of the secrets that I am giving to you.

    Your mouths will thirst for God. Your hearts will burn at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. You will experience intense union with God.

    This is the era where men will know God with the greatest love. The era in which men will be one with God in a profound union. The earth will be united as one happy family, living according to My Will in profound love.

    And your hearts will be burning and on fire for love of God.
    And so, My beloved apostles in the core group, what are the instructions I give to you:
    Open your heart.
    Have faith in these writings.
    Obey the directions I give to you.
    Let go of willfulness.

    You must follow Fr. Carter. You must adhere to what he tells you. I am acting in him as the leader to lead the hearts into the new era.

    I give to you the directions here to help bring about My Plan. You must follow the directions I am giving.

    All actions must be rooted in love of God and love of one another.
    Your profound union with God and with others is the powerful force moving in you.
    Love is the answer.

    I am the Father. You will unveil the evil operating in the Movement and around you trying to stop you.

    You will always be rooted in the deepest love. There is to be only love. Anger, getting even, hatred, is from the devil.

    You will operate in love with My might to accomplish the task of helping renew the earth and the Church.

    My Son's Heart will reign. You are crucial to My Plan. You must adhere to My words you are given in the messages of My Son and Mary, your Mother.

    This is My Plan, that the earth be an earth filled with creatures of love, living as docile, little children, obeying My Will and obeying your Mother. Man will be profoundly united to God and one another in the greatest harmonious love.

    Study the words of the Our Father - this is how you must pray.

    You will know profound oneness between the Persons of the Trinity. You will be one in our love.

    I am the Father. I have spoken. When men are willful, you study the workings of Satan trying to stop the progress of My work, but you put aside adverse feelings in your heart and respond in deep love for all of your brothers.

    I will handle the work of weeding out the opposition. You are not to worry or fear but to know how Satan is working to stop you.

    You are at war. The bombs will fly around you. I am the Commander. I supply the ammunition. You must keep your hearts open and fervently pray.

    Each day you must spend one hour in private prayer, preferably before the tabernacle. You must:

1.  Pray the Morning Offering,

2.  Pray the Consecration and Holy Spirit prayers all through the day and with each other.

3.  Attend daily Mass and Communion.

4.  Spend one hour in private prayer, in great intimacy with God. (not just reciting prayers with your mouth) connecting with God in an intimate love union in your heart.

5.  Pray the rosary.

6.  Pray the Shepherds of Christ prayers several times during the week, two times before the tabernacle, if possible.

    This is My Plan for the apostles. This is your goal. You are My Apostles to help bring in the new era.

    I am the Father. I am behind you executing My Plan. You follow the directions I give. You do not comprehend My ways. You must be willing and not willful.

    I give you a special grace to carry out My directions given from My Son Jesus to you. I am behind these directions. You must pray for faith. I am the Father. I have spoken to you, My Shepherds.

May 18, 2001 message continues

Messenger: On December 7, 1996, First Saturday,
                        I received the following revelation -
                        Revelations on the Light.

                 Father Carter said it was then that
                        the scripture began to open
                        up to us as never before, after
                        this message of December 7, 1996.

                 On December 7, 1941 there was a surprise
                        attack on Pearl Harbor by
                        Japanese forces, this forced
                        the United States into World
                        War II.

                 The first bombs fell about 7:55 a.m.

                 It was approximately the same time
                        55 years later I received this
                        message December 7, 1996.

                 Our Lord told me to tell you
                        this today.

                 55 years since Pearl Harbor at
                        about the same time
                 Jesus gave me the following
                        writing on Light to give
                        to Father Carter and the world.

                 I was instructed to put it
                        in the Apostles' Manual
                        and the book passed out
                        with the tape Mary's Message 
                        December 13, 1996.

                 Exactly ten days after the message
                        December 7, 1996 Mary appeared
                        on the building in Clearwater, Florida
                        December 17, 1996.

 


 

Revelation 12: 1-2

Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant, and in labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth.

 


 

December 7, 1996 First Saturday -
Revelations on the Light

Isaiah 30: 19-26:

Yes, people of Zion living in Jerusalem,
you will weep no more.
He will be gracious to you when your cry for help rings out;
as soon as he hears it, he will answer you.
When the Lord has given you the bread of suffering
and the water of distress,
he who is your teacher will hide no longer,
and you will see your teacher with your own eyes.
Your ears will hear these words behind you,
'This is the way, keep to it,' whether you turn to right or left.
You will hold unclean the silverplating of your idols
and goldplating of your images.
You will throw them away like the polluted things they are,
shouting after them, 'Good riddance!'
He will send rain for the seed you sow in the ground,
and the bread that the ground provides will be rich and nourishing.
That day, your cattle will graze in wide pastures.
Oxen and donkeys that work the land
will eat for fodder wild sorrel,
spread by the shovel-load and fork-load.
On every lofty mountain, on every high hill
there will be streams and water-courses, on the day of the great slaughter
when the strongholds fall.
Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-
on the day Yahweh dresses his people's wound
and heals the scars of the blows they have received."

Isaiah 40:1-8:

'Console my people, console them,'
says your God.
'Speak to the heart of Jerusalem
and cry to her
that her period of service is ended,
that her guilt has been atoned for,
that, from the hand of Yahweh, she has received
double punishment for all her sins.'
A voice cries, 'Prepare in the desert
a way for Yahweh.
Make a straight highway for our God
across the wastelands.
Let every valley be filled in,
every mountain and hill be levelled,
every cliff become a plateau,
every escarpment a plain;
then the glory of Yahweh will be revealed
and all humanity will see it together,
for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken.'
A voice said, 'Cry aloud!' and I said, 'What shall I cry?'
-'All humanity is grass
and all its beauty like the wild flower's.
The grass withers, the flower fades
when the breath of Yahweh blows on them.
(The grass is surely the people.)
The grass withers, the flower fades,
but the word of our God remains for ever.'

Song: A Voice Cries Out in the Wilderness

Adam and Eve are given great gifts and insights into God. They sin, the light of knowing God is dimmed because of their sin. They do not know God as they did before the sin.

Christ comes, He is the Light of the World. He dies, He gives Himself. He shares His life with us through sanctifying grace.

Through Baptism we receive this sharing in His divine life. The more He shares His life, the more we are saturated with His life, the more we know Him. He reveals Himself to us--we see the light.

The Kingdom of God is at hand. It is all here: the Mass, the Eucharist, God giving Himself.

To partake more in His life we must give ourselves to Him.

Mary appears to Bernadette. She tells her she is the "Immaculate Conception." We are sinners, but through Mary, the pure and sinless one, we can unite deeply in Him.

We are in darkness in varying degrees. The more we are saturated with His life, the more we see.

The reign of God is at hand. Since He came to the earth, everything is in place to see the light.

God is giving to us great graces to see the light now. He is lifting the veil.

There will be the era of peace.

Isaiah 30:26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."

We see the darkness. As at night, we do not see the colorful leaves, they are there, we do not see them.

In the morning light, we see the glory of the beautiful day, the colorful leaves.

As the light steals across the sky, we see more and more. As the sun gradually comes up, we see more clearly the beauty of the leaves.

At first, our vision is not so clear because the light does not show in its deepest intensity. As the sun comes up we see more and more vividly until finally we see clearly the beauty of the colorful leaves.

Isaiah 30:26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."

In a message to Fr. Carter on July 31, 1994, Jesus has promised us: "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."

As stated above, the more we are saturated with his life, the more we are one in Him, the more clearly we see. It is in this union, in the depth of His Heart, that we receive such life, that we know Him with great clarity, that we are given this vision of God.

It is not with "eyes" that we see, but the illumination is in the knowing power that He gives to us. He reveals insights into the divine mysteries. We share most intimately with Him when we are one with Him in the Mass and after Communion. These are treasured moments in which He gives us a special sharing to know Him, our Divine Lover.

We see clearly when our hearts are hearts of love. We see vividly when our hearts are filled with love and peace. We were created to love, to love God and love each other.

Adam and Eve sinned. They lost the great gift given to them. The light of knowing God was dimmed because of their sin.

Christ comes into the world. He is the Word. He is the light of the world. He comes to save man from his sin. He comes in the womb of the Virgin Mary. Mary is the pure and sinless one. Jesus comes to pay the price for the sin of Adam and for our sins. We are all tainted by this sin of our first father and mother. Mary is the Immaculate and pure one, the highest human person. Divinity unites with humanity in the womb of Mary. They are one. Jesus is carried within the body of His mother. Such unity from the beginning, for His life is formed within her body. Is it surprising to us, then, if Christ comes within the womb of the Virgin Mary, that we too must go through Mary to unite to Him? Where is the pride in the hearts of men that think they do not have to go through their Mother Mary? If Christ comes in the womb of Mary to pay the price for man's sins, and we are tainted by the sin, in order to unite to the Almighty God who is all holy, we must go through the pure and sinless one.

Adam and Eve sinned. The Father sends His Son into the world to pay the price for man's sins. Jesus is the New Adam; Mary is the New Eve. Man continues to sin, greatly displeasing God. The Father allows Mary to appear to Bernadette at Lourdes as the Immaculate Conception, as having been conceived without original sin. The Father then allows Mary to appear to the children of Fatima as the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

We are sinners, we cannot unite closely to Him unless we go through Mary.

Mary is the pure and sinless one. We can unite deeply to Him. We are in darkness in varying degrees. The more we are saturated with His life, the more we see.

The reign of God is at hand. He came to the earth, He died, He rose on the third day. He gave to the Apostles the power to change bread and wine into His Body and Blood. He gave to them the power to forgive sins. He established His Church pouring forth from His pierced side. We do not see the great gifts that He has given to us. He is giving to us great insights into these gifts. God is giving to us great graces to see the light now. He is lifting the veil.

There will be an era of peace and all will see with such light as Isaiah speaks of in chapter 30, verse 26:

"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."

Man sinned. Jesus came to redeem us. Man is still so sinful. Mary appears at Fatima. She tells us that we are offending God, that we must make reparation to her heart and the heart of her Son.

She gives us the peace plan for the world. She tells us that the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and her Immaculate Heart will triumph but we must do what she says. The Church has approved Fatima. The devil has blocked the message. How can we disobey our Mother? How can we ignore her? Mary appeared at Fatima and was ignored. Mary appeared to me almost daily for 14 months--she does not appear as she once did. Jesus has told me that He will handle these messages, that He is in charge, that the plan of the Father will unfold despite any person's willfulness.

In August 1996, Mary spoke in the rosary: she said she could not hold back the hand of her Son any longer. On the 5th of this month, instead of Mary appearing as she had in the past, Jesus appeared alive on the crucifix with His mouth moving for twenty minutes. We are not listening to Mary or to Jesus. Man has sinned. Jesus came to redeem us. Mary tells us what we must do. Men are disobedient. They disobeyed their Mother. They do not do what she told them what they must do at Fatima. When hearts are consecrated to Jesus and Mary they become holy hearts, deeply one with God. The reign of the Sacred Heart is at hand for He has given to us abundant grace that we are seeing with such clarity this vision of God. He has imparted to us understanding into His divine mysteries.

The more we focus on what Jesus and Mary have told us, the more we will have peace. He is angered by the willfulness of man. He will get their attention. We are spreading the good news when we spread the consecration.

We must heed the words of our Mother. She will not go away because of willful men. We have angered God more by ignoring her. There is only one way: it is the plan that Mary has given to us at Fatima. He is lifting the veil for those whose hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.

Many in the Shepherds of Christ Movement are fervently loving Him. In the Shepherds of Christ Movement, as the apostles spread the consecration to the Church, the family, and the school, the fire of His love will cover the earth and it will be lighted with this love coming from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph.

We, in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, are spreading the fire of His love across the earth through the consecration.

The hearts of men will turn from their sick and desolate ways to hearts gentle as a little lamb. There will be one flock and one Shepherd and His staff will rule over all. Hearts consecrated to Their Hearts will lead the light across the earth. This light will be a light of intense brightness, brighter and hotter than any light from a flame. It will be the fire of God's love. The Spirit will move in all hearts consecrated to His Heart, and we will know how fire truly spreads, for the love of God is a fire, it is vibrant, it is encompassing, it is smoldering, burning deep within and speedily spreading on the outside. No fires on this earth can ever describe the burning embers that burn from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. No fire burns like the fires coming from His Heart and hearts filled with the love from the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

On October 13, 1917 Our Lady gave to Lucia and 70,000 spellbound people, a great vision: the sun spun in the sky, casting off great lights. This happened three times in about 12 minutes. As quoted from Our Lady of Fatima's Peace Plan from Heaven:

It seemed that the whole world was on fire with the sun spinning at a greater speed each time. Then a gasp of terror rose from the crowd for the sun seemed to tear itself from the heavens and come crashing down upon the horrified multitudes...just when it seemed that the ball of fire would fall upon and destroy them, the miracle ceased, and the sun resumed its normal place in the sky, shining forth as peacefully as ever.

Mary gave this tremendous sign at Fatima and people did not listen. The events that followed were as she had predicted since we disobeyed her. There was a brutal war, WWII. Mary appeared to me (Rita Ring) almost daily - very few have listened. She told me over and over again of the souls going to hell. She told me in August she could not hold back the hand of her Son anymore. Adam and Eve sinned. God, the Father, sent His Son. Man continues to sin--the Father sends Mary but she is ignored!

On July 2, 1996, my son, Joseph, was taking pictures of all of the Shepherds of Christ members at Tom Arlinghaus' farm. He took one picture of each person. Jesus told me to tell him to take two pictures of Fr. Carter. The first picture was a normal picture. The second picture was of Fr. Carter covered with a pillar of light.

In front of a statue of Our Sorrowful Mother, Mary was alive in the statue.

Jesus: "Peace will abound when nations, churches, families, and individuals are consecrated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The Shepherds of Christ Movement...is a pillar of light in the darkness."

R. We must encourage all to consecrate their hearts to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to join the Shepherds of Christ chapters, and the Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus Movement, to pray for our Church and our world.

Jesus: This is My Movement for renewal of the Church and the world, based in consecration, joining your every act to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, praying the rosary, and making reparation to Our Hearts, especially on first Fridays and first Saturday. It is through your prayers and sacrifices many souls will be saved. Grace will flow from those whose hearts are consecrated to Our Hearts and the fire of My love will light up this darkened world.

R. Many are living in darkness because they are not obeying Our Lady. The people will see the light when they obey her and consecrate their hearts to her heart and the Heart of Jesus.

To have this intense union with Jesus, with God, we must give ourselves to Our Lady. It is there in the intimacy with Him that we are saturated with His life and that He reveals to us great lights, great insights into His divine mysteries. Yes, indeed, the light will steal across the earth and the hearts of men will be hearts filled with His love. They will know their God with great light imparted to them by the Holy Spirit given to them because of the deep union that they have with Jesus. The reign of the Sacred Heart is at hand. He is giving to us these great lights at this time for He has lifted the veil and we see many things and the light steals across the sky and we see with clear vision.

Isaiah 30: 26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."

Isaiah 30: 25:
"On every lofty mountain, on every high hill
there will be streams and water-courses, on the day of the great slaughter
when the strongholds fall."

Truly His Heart is the fountain of divine life. It flows through the Church, through the hands of His holy priests. When priests are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and celebrating the Mass, and administering the sacraments, an immense amount of His grace will be outpoured on the earth.

A people in darkness have seen a great light. Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, the Light of the World!

Our Father...thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. We will all love as the Father intends, for now He looks to the earth and He sees it covered with darkness. As hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the earth will be covered with His light.

Revelation 12:1-12:

Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant, and in labor, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth. Then a second sign appeared in the sky: there was a huge red dragon with seven heads and ten horns, and each of the seven heads crowned with a coronet. Its tail swept a third of the stars from the sky and hurled them to the ground, and the dragon stopped in front of the woman as she was at the point of giving birth, so that he could eat the child as soon as it was born. The woman was delivered of a boy, the Son who was to rule all the nations with an iron scepter, and the child was taken straight up to God and to his throne, while the woman escaped into the desert, where God had prepared a place for her to be looked after for twelve hundred and sixty days.

And now war broke out in heaven, when Michael with his angels attacked the dragon. The dragon fought back with his angels, but they were defeated and driven out of heaven. The great dragon, the primeval serpent, known as the devil or Satan, who had led all the world astray, was hurled down to the earth and his angels were hurled down with him. Then I heard a voice shout from heaven, 'Salvation and power and empire for ever have been won by our God, and all authority for his Christ, now that the accuser, who accused our brothers day and night before our God, has been brought down. They have triumphed over him by the blood of the lamb and by the word to which they bore witness, because even in the face of death they did not cling to life. So let the heavens rejoice and all who live there; but for you, earth and sea, disaster is coming-because the devil has gone down to you in a rage, knowing that he has little time left.'

We are in her spiritual womb (heart). She is pregnant, bringing forth her children of light. As we go to her heart, she crushes the head of the serpent. Some of the brightest stars that will light up the earth are in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. We are the children of light. We are being sent forth as she brings us forth her children of light to stamp out the darkness. We must give ourselves to Mary.

A Note From the President:

We have a video which can be played using the RealPlayer 8 Basic program. This program can be downloaded free of charge from the www.real.com website. Look for the section where free downloads are available and select the RealPlayer 8 Basic program. 

You do not need to stay at the computer while the RealPlayer 8 Basic program or our movie is downloading. The movie takes about 8 MB of disk space. Once you have the movie saved on your hard drive, you can play it over and over with no wait to interested friends or family members.

These photos were captured from the movie which can be downloaded. We started with video footage of Our Lady of Clearwater and video footage of Our Lady of Guadalupe. When I faded from Our Lady of Clearwater to Our Lady of Guadalupe in the video, I was startled and amazed to see how well the two images match up. I believe it is another sign that Our Lady is truly appearing to the children of the Earth on the Mary Image Building in Clearwater, Florida.

This Internet movie is a small sample of scenes from a real VHS video which was directed by our Lord and is available from Shepherds of Christ. Please contact us to obtain a copy of this video. We operate on donations.

                 to spread the devotion to His
                 Most Sacred Heart.

          Oh dear and precious Heart of Jesus

                 ends of the earth for Your most

          It is your might behind me, your power
                 that sends me. I am an Apostle of
                 the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I give
                 myself as completely as possible to
                 Thee.             

          Sacred Heart of Jesus I place my
                 trust in Thee.

                and Our Lady of Clearwater that

Sorrowful Mother
Mary's Message from the Rosary of August 27, 1996

Mary speaks: I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.

Song: O Lady of Light, shining so bright, be with us this day, guiding our way, O Lady, O Lady of Light. O Lady of Light, shining so bright, be with us this day, guiding our way, O Lady, O Lady of Light. O Lady of Light, shining so bright, be with us this day, guiding our way, O Lady, O Lady of Light.

Mary speaks: I appear to you as Our Mother of Sorrows. I appear to you as Our Mother of Sorrows.I appear to you as Our Mother of Sorrows.

A Note from the President of Shepherds of Christ:

If you are devoted to Our Lady's rosary, we need your help! A member of our ministry is very devoted to Our Blessed Mother and he is helping to teach us how to grow our volunteer rosary makers. He estimates that we will need approximately $37,000 this year for beads alone! This translates into 22,339,500 rosary beads (yes, 22 million beads) assembled by volunteers into 378 thousand rosaries. The biggest users of our rosaries are the Catholic schools, who requested more than 100,000 rosaries last year.

Can you help us? I appeal to you for funds, whether large or small. We give because we love God, we love our Blessed Mother, and we love souls. We will accept gifts in many forms, besides cash or check donations, we can receive gifts directly in the form of stocks or property. These gifts can offer large tax advantages to the donor and increase the monetary value of the gift to us. Also if you can help assemble rosaries we need your help! If you can help us in anyway, please call or write us. God Bless!

I love you,
John Weickert


         

A rosary can be used to pray for healing. It is powerful to unite our prayers to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and pray through the powerful intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater.

In times of trouble, for special prayer, we can use our rosary and pray as follows.

A Rosary for Healing or for Someone with Cancer.

On one Hail Mary bead or as many as you desire, say: 

May God heal                     through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater in union with the Mass and all the Masses being celebrated around the world.

Pray the Hail Mary or Hail Mary's then pray this after the Hail Mary.

May the cancer be uprooted and thrown into the sea.

We believe with all our hearts.

After the Glory Be — pray the following petition.

May                     be healed through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater if it be the holy will of God.

Note: You can look at Mary on the image rosary while you pray this rosary.

Note: The above section can be printed out from a PDF file, and you can pray the rosary looking at the pictures.


December 17, 2000, Mary speaks:

Help me to circulate my red and blue
    Rosary Books and the
    prayers my Son gives to you.

This is a gift we give you.
All the revelations are gifts given to you.
My Son is the Light of the World.

Will you help me?
He is the Light of the World. Help me, help me
    reach my children of the world.
