May 31, 2001  The Visitation

Excerpt from May 21, 2001 Daily Message

Messenger:  I see myself in the arms of my Father as a
                                    child. I know He is a Spirit, but He
                                    told me He wants me to see myself as
                                    a little child on His lap.

                          This picture helps me to see myself little as a child.
                          This picture helps me to see my dependence on Him.
                          This picture helps me to look to Him for my answers,
                               for my plan, for my direction.

                               It takes the focus off of me and helps me to see
                                    how truly dependent I am on Him.

                                I think that writing was given September 22, 1994 so
                                    when Father Carter was opened with cancer
                                    September 22, 2000 I would see my dependency
                                    is on my Father.

                                Father Carter was a spiritual father to me and
                                    the whole Movement.
                                    Jesus spoke to him and gave him the
                                    vision of the Movement.
                                    He had the big picture.
                                    He had that constant vision of Jesus.

(End of excerpt from May 21, 2001 Daily Message)


Writing from May 21, 2001                 

Messenger: I see myself on the Father's lap and see myself 
                           as His little child.

                  I want to be so connected to Him, to do His
                     will at every moment.

                  I want to be so focused on the beatific
                       vision to live to be possessed by God.

                  That is my true happiness. My goal is
                         to be possessed by God.

                     I want the deepest union possible.

                     I envision Father Carter seeing the face of
                                 God.

                     I think of all we talked about, about 
                              knowing God and the ecstatic
                                      experiences I had and I am filled
                               with such joy to unite with the
                                souls that are experiencing such
                                   fullness of life and to pray
                                     through their powerful intercession.

                    Today I lay in my bed and I wanted such
                          deep union with God. I feel so much closer to
                          God the Father since the message of
                             Sept. 22, 1994.

                     I feel this deep connection to my Father and I love
                            Him so, so much. I want this awareness
                              of Him so close to me and my
                               realization of my dependency on Him.

                      I want to be His little child.
                        I see myself as little and dependent and I
                                long for deep union with Him.

                       I feel so connected to Jesus as my beloved
                                Spouse and
                        I feel my deep on fire love for God. I feel my
                                 deep relationship with the Holy 
                                    Spirit.

                         I know Them more and more as Persons, Father,
                                 Son and Holy Spirit and I know Them
                                  as One Divine Supreme Being that
                                  is love. One Divine Supreme
                                  Being that loves me so much.

Jesus speaks:   Put on Father Carter's homily
                               May 26, 2000 with scripture.


Father Carter's Homily – May 26, 2000

John 15:12-17

"This is my commandment:

love one another,

as I have loved you.

No one can have greater love

than to lay down his life for his friends.

You are my friends,

if you do what I command you.

I shall no longer call you servants,

because a servant does not know

the master’s business;

I call you friends,

because I have made known to you

everything I have learnt from my Father.

You did not choose me,

no, I chose you;

and I commissioned you

to go out and to bear fruit,

fruit that will last;

so that the Father will give you

anything you ask him in my name.

My command to you

is to love one another."

 

Fr. Carter's Homily:

When a person has chosen to head up a charitable organization, or when a person is chosen to be director of a board of trustees of a prestigious university, those people so chosen feel very honored and elated that they were chosen among so many other possibilities to perform a very considerable task. And they go about that task of heading up the charitable organization or the board of trustees with great enthusiasm, with as complete dedication as time and energy will allow because they want to fulfill the trust which has been placed in them.

In today's Gospel Jesus says, "You did not choose me, no, I chose you." (John 15:16) Think of it: the Son of God chooses each of us for a very, very, very special task, much more important than just heading up a certain charitable organization, much more important than being the head of a board of trustees of a prestigious university. Do we have the same enthusiasm, the same dedication that these people who were chosen for these lesser tasks have?

St. Philip Neri – he certainly responded so beautifully and to such a high degree of love to the choice which Jesus had made of him, and so did all the saints. And so we always have to reflect: how do I look upon the fact that Jesus, the incarnate Son of God has chosen me for a very, very, very special mission which no one else can fulfill? Again, are we as enthusiastic about Jesus' choice of us for this very, very special mission as the children of this world are, as they respond to choices made of them for various purposes with such great enthusiasm and dedication?

Of course it is the Eucharist which gives us the chief source of grace to fulfill the choice Jesus has made of each of us to such a high degree. The saints – they depended upon that same Eucharist and they so admirably fulfilled the mission attached to Jesus' choice of them because they used those graces of the Eucharist in such eminent fashion.

And so each day as we offer the Eucharistic Sacrifice along with Jesus and as we receive Him at Communion time, let us ask Him, "Dear Jesus, in Your great, tender love You have chosen me for such a special mission to be fulfilled here below. Allow me to respond to Your choice with the greatest enthusiasm, commitment, vigor and effectiveness which Your grace will allow me. Jesus, thank You for choosing me."


Jesus speaks:  Peace is not ignoring problems. I come to deliver
                  a message and you do not even realize the seriousness
                   of the situation. I am God.
                      I am the Alpha and the Omega. I deliver
                      a message about peace.

                   PEACE WILL BE FOUND WHEN YOU
                        DO GOD'S WILL.

               Some people live their whole lives trying to be 
                              on the top.
                    I call you to serve Me now.
                    I have called you to this mission.
                    Do you want it your way?
                      Is your way My way?

                     You do not even realize the gift I have given to you
                             by calling you.
                      In the beginning I delivered messages and many
                             said no. They did not see the gift they were
                              given by being called by Me. They were
                               jealous and they wanted to be on the top,
                               they wanted to be the messenger.
                       I am delivering My message for the world.
                               Did you ever think you would be
                                involved with such a mission?

                             Did you see Our Lady of Fatima on a movie?

                             Did you see the devastation of World War II?

                             Did you want to help?

1st reading at Mass

Magnificat


The Magnificat

                      And Mary said: 

                    My soul proclaims
                       the greatness of the Lord
                    and my spirit rejoices 
                        in God my Saviour
;
                     because he has looked upon 
                        the humiliation of his servant

                    Yes, from now onwards 
                       all generations will call me blessed,
                   for the Almighty 
                       has done great things for me. 
                   Holy is his name,
                  
and his faithful love extends age after age
                       to those who fear him.

                   He has used the power of his arm, 
                    he has routed the arrogant of heart.
                  He has pulled down princes 
                      from their thrones 
                        and raised high the lowly.
                  He has filled the starving with good things, 
                  
  sent the rich away empty.
                  He has come to the help 
                      of Israel his servant, 

                          mindful of his faithful love
                   —according to the promise 
                       he made to our ancestors—
                  of his mercy to Abraham 
                      and to his descendants for ever.
                     Mary stayed with her some three months 
               and then went home.


Mary speaks:  

    I AM THE HANDMAID OF

             THE LORD!

      My children, I come to serve, I did

             God's will. Many in the whole

             world have ignored my appearance

             in Florida. With all the willfulness

             in the world, it is not pleasing

             to the Father when He gives such

              a sign and it is ignored.

Jesus speaks:

               Here is Mary's message-

             It is a message of humility, of

              peace, of living according

              to the will of God. It is

              living in harmony doing

              God's will. You do not

              force others to pray. I set

              the plan at the Centers

              for My way of life. If

              you come to the Centers

              you see I am calling

               you to pray at 6:20. It pleases

                me that you pray at 6:20.

               I wish to include a homily given

                by Father Carter on doing 

                God's will.


Father Carter's Homily June 28, 2000

 


 

Matthew 7: 15-20

False prophets

‘Beware of false prophets who come to you disguised as sheep but underneath are ravenous wolves. You will be able to tell them by their fruits. Can people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? In the same way, a sound tree produces good fruit but a rotten tree bad fruit. A sound tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor a rotten tree bear good fruit. Any tree that does not produce good fruit is cut down and thrown on the fire. I repeat, you will be able to tell them by their fruits.

 


 

Fr. Carter's homily:

        "...you will be able to tell them by their fruits." (Matthew 7: 20) words which close today's Gospel. Yes, we are called to bear good fruit for the sake of the Kingdom, and the fruit we bear is in proportion to our love union with Jesus. And our love union with Jesus includes in a necessary way our doing the Father's will in love. This particular reading from Matthew is taken from the Sermon on the Mount, a great sermon which comprises chapters 5, 6 and 7, and whether it is immediately following this particular verse of the Sermon on the Mount, this particular section, it certainly comes very closely thereafter where Jesus gives us this thought:

 


 

Matthew 7: 21

'It is not anyone who says to me, "Lord, Lord," who will enter the kingdom of Heaven, but the person who does the will of my Father in heaven.'

 


 

Fr. Carter's homily:

        So the Sermon on the Mount very closely by the juxtaposition or almost the juxtaposition of these two teachings about bearing good fruit and doing the Father's will reminds us, yes, to produce good fruit demands that we be in union with Jesus in love in doing the Father's will. There's no other way to bear good fruit.

        St. John of the Cross reminds us in a very summary statement of this. In one of his writings he says, "What does it profit you to give God one thing if He asks for another? Consider what it is God wants and then do it." 1 Very few words but what profound teaching.

        St. Irenaeus, martyr, did the Father's will in that ultimate way of accepting martyrdom. Whatever the Father's will is for us, let us say with St. John of the Cross, "What does it profit you to give God one thing if He asks for another? Consider what it is God wants and then do it." 1  Yes, we do it in union with Jesus and this is how we bear fruit for the Kingdom.

Jesus speaks:

                     My writings given here are

                             gifts to the world-

                              how can I accomplish

                                what I desire without

                                 workers, if everyone

                                  has their own plan.

                     These writings will go on

                              to help renew the Church

                               and the world.

                      You do not even realize what

                          a gift these writings are. You

                          do not realize what a gift

                          the daily message is. You do

                           not realize how it reaches

                            the far corners of this earth

                            everyday. It is My message

                            given to the world. It is important

                             to Me today.

                                  The devil does not want

                            these writings to circulate.

                            You ignore Me and that I am

                             speaking to you. You ignore the

                             Lady on the building. I cry to

                             you and you do not hear me through

                             your noise. You do not see

                             Me with your eyes. Some have

                             turned numb.

                                    Tomorrow is the Month

                             of My Sacred Heart.

                                  How did you honor your

                             Mother in her month of May?

                                   How did you promote the

                              rosary?

                                   How did you help to bring real

                                peace to the earth?

                               Peace is found in doing the

                                       Father's will.

                               So many have an agenda and they

                                       say to Me, "I have to be busy

                                       about my life"- that is why

                                       they won't even take notice

                                        of Mary on the building, it

                                         may mean they have to give

                                          up their own plan.

                              There will be peace when

                                        men live to do God's will.

                      Mary said: 


 Luke 1:46-47

The Magnificat

                                 My soul proclaims
                                     the greatness of the Lord
                                 and my spirit rejoices               
                                     in God my Saviour
                                  


Jesus speaks:     Are you the handmaid of the Lord
                                      or are you the leader?

                               Mary was humble, she said
                                        yes to God.

                                   She was the handmaid.

                               Problems must be addressed,
                                     peace is not found in hiding
                                     problems to have a day that
                                     is a day without suffering.

                               I carried My cross to the hill of Calvary,

                                      I carried it on My back, I fell

                                          under its weight.

                                      I am God, I could have stopped the

                                         suffering.

                                     I did it for you, My chosen one.

                                     I Bled.

                                     I did what the Father willed.

                                     I stood at the pillar.

                                     I was whipped.

                                     I was crowned with thorns,

                                     I did the will of the Father.

                               You doing your own will when it

                                      isn't My will, will leave

                                      you empty.

                                Happiness is found in doing God's will.

                              I am calling you now to help Me.

                                    Satan can create distractions,

                                       satan wants you to control

                                               your lives, I want 

                                                       you to

                                         surrender to let go

                                       to spend quiet moments

                                     with Me with your God

                                     and let God reveal

                                   God's plan for you.

                      A woman had a rotten tooth, she went to

                           the dentist, he wanted to pull it, (the tooth)

                           she insisted it wasn't rotten

                           and blamed the dentist for telling

                            her the truth.

                   Your society has a lot of rotten

                          things that need to be extracted,

                            I am the Maker, the One Who

                            creates. You feel the pain

                             like the lady with a 

                                rotten tooth you

                                   come to Me

                              and I tell you the

                           truthyou plug up your

                           ears and do it your way,

                         your tooth gets more and more

                          rotten because you won't hear

                        Me, the pain is greater and greater,

                       the dentist tells her, Oh lady, it is

                     getting worse, he sends in another to

                     confirm his story, she says no, that

                     dentist is wrong.

                   Listen to your FatherHe has sent Me,

                       He has allowed your Mother to

                         appear on the building,

                           satan is stronger than

                              he ever was.

                 (Mary is a messenger sent by God.)

                   Spread My Blood on 

               your whole self, on your 

             emotions and imagination. Ask

            God to heal you of your hidden faults.

            Ask God to bring your offenses to the

             light. Ask God to help you to do all acts

              for His honor and glory.

            Ask Me to keep you protected with

                   My Precious Blood.

           You are at battle. The devil

                wants My message stopped.

              The devil wants you to give

              up, to be divided, to be

               selfish, to have an ulterior motive.

                             Your motive should

                              be to serve God and

                             do His will in all things.

      Say this "Oh God, I want to

                      serve you and do Your will in

                      all things, give me light,

                      give me peace, Help me be

                      protected by the Blood of Jesus,

                      cast the devil far away from

                      Me. I give my heart to You.

                       I ask the Holy Spirit to enlighten

                        me.

                      Oh God help me."

        I have called you to this mission to help
             bring about the Reign of My 
              Sacred Heart.

              Satan will give you your own agenda.
              Satan wants you to do your own thing.

        Here is a story, a conductor led the orchestra,

             The head violinist had a particular piece he
                 felt he excelled in, he wanted everyone
                 to be proud of him and hear how
                 good he played. He played with all
                 his heart at the concert, his piece
                 had nothing to do with the piece the
                 conductor was leading.

            A clarinet player wanted to take
                 this opportunity to show his skills.
                 He was on stage now, everyone in
                 his family would watch him and
                 then he would finally be "looked up
                 to" and accepted and loved
                 by his family. He played his
                 own favorite tune.

            A man dedicated his life to learning
                 and learning about theology and
                 God. God was so pleased He asked
                  him to serve in this special
                  mission, he spent his days
                  dreaming of the future and how
                  someday he would be the leader,
                  instead of doing all he could
                  in this mission called by God
                  he always saw another day,
                  a bigger mission when he would
                  be the leader and not under 
                  anyone.

           I want to tell you about Eve.

                Listen to the fall from Chapter 3 of Genesis.


Genesis chapter 3

The Fall

Now, the snake was the most subtle of all the wild animals that Yahweh God had made. It asked the woman, 'Did God really say you were not to eat from any of the trees in the garden?' The woman answered the snake, 'We may eat the fruit of the trees in the garden. But of the fruit of the tree in the middle of the garden God said, "You must not eat it, nor touch it, under pain of death." ' Then the snake said to the woman, 'No! You will not die! God knows in fact that the day you eat it your eyes will be opened and you will be like gods, knowing good from evil.' The woman saw that the tree was good to eat and pleasing to the eye, and that it was enticing for the wisdom that it could give. So she took some of its fruit and ate it. She also gave some to her husband who was with her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of them were opened and they realised that they were naked. So they sewed fig-leaves together to make themselves loin-cloths.

The man and his wife heard the sound of Yahweh God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from Yahweh God among the trees of the garden. But Yahweh God called to the man. 'Where are you?' he asked. 'I heard the sound of you in the garden,' he replied. 'I was afraid because I was naked, so I hid.' 'Who told you that you were naked?' he asked. 'Have you been eating from the tree I forbade you to eat?' The man replied, 'It was the woman you put with me; she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.' Then Yahweh God said to the woman, 'Why did you do that?' The woman replied, 'The snake tempted me and I ate.'

Then Yahweh God said to the snake, 'Because you have done this,

    Accursed be you
    of all animals wild and tame!
    On your belly you will go
    and on dust you will feed
    as long as you live.
    I shall put enmity
    between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring and hers;
    it will bruise your head
    and you will strike its heel.'

    To the woman he said:

    I shall give you intense pain
        in childbearing,
    you will give birth to your children
        in pain.
    Your yearning will be for your husband,
    and he will dominate you.

To the man he said, 'Because you listened to the voice of your wife and ate from the tree of which I had forbidden you to eat,

    Accursed be the soil because of you!
    Painfully will you get your food from it
    as long as you live.
    It will yield you brambles and thistles,
    as you eat the produce of the land.
    By the sweat of your face
    will you earn you food,
    until you return to the ground,
    as you were taken from it.
    For dust you are
    and to dust you shall return.

The man named his wife 'Eve' because she was the mother of all those who live. Yahweh God made tunics of skins for the man and his wife and clothed them. Then Yahweh God said, 'Now that the man has become like one of us in knowing good from evil, he must not be allowed to reach out his hand and pick from the tree of life too, and eat and live for ever!' So Yahweh God expelled him from the garden of Eden, to till the soil from which he had been taken. He banished the man, and in front of the garden of Eden he posted the great winged creatures and the fiery flashing sword, to guard the way to the tree of life.


 

Jesus speaks:     Listen to Chapter 11 Revelation about
                                  the two witnesses.  

 


Revelation 11: 1-19

The two witnesses

Then I was given a long cane like a measuring rod, and I was told, ‘Get up and measure God’s sanctuary, and the altar, and the people who worship there; but exclude the outer court and do not measure it, because it has been handed over to gentiles—they will trample on the holy city for forty–two months. But I shall send my two witnesses to prophesy for twelve hundred and sixty days, wearing sackcloth. These are the two olive trees and the two lamps in attendance on the Lord of the world. Fire comes from their mouths and consumes their enemies if anyone tries to harm them; and anyone who tries to harm them will certainly be killed in this way. They have the power to lock up the sky so that it does not rain as long as they are prophesying; they have the power to turn water into blood and strike the whole world with any plague as often as they like. When they have completed their witnessing, the beast that comes out of the Abyss is going to make war on them and overcome them and kill them. Their corpses lie in the main street of the great city known by the symbolic names Sodom and Egypt, in which their Lord was crucified. People of every race, tribe, language and nation stare at their corpses, for three–and–a–half days, not letting them be buried, and the people of the world are glad about it and celebrate the event by giving presents to each other, because these two prophets have been a plague to the people of the world.’
    After the three–and–a–half days, God breathed life into them and they stood up on their feet, and everybody who saw it happen was terrified; then I heard a loud voice from heaven say to them, ‘Come up here,’ and while their enemies were watching, they went up to heaven in a cloud. Immediately, there was a violent earthquake, and a tenth of the city collapsed; seven thousand persons were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors, overcome with fear, could only praise the God of heaven.
    That was the second of the disasters; the third is to come quickly after it.
 

The seventh trumpet

Then the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and voices could be heard shouting in heaven, calling, ‘The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and his Christ, and he will reign for ever and ever.’ The twenty–four elders, enthroned in the presence of God, prostrated themselves and touched the ground with their foreheads worshipping God with these words, ‘We give thanks to you, Almighty Lord God, He who is, He who was, for assuming your great power and beginning your reign. The nations were in uproar and now the time has come for your retribution, and for the dead to be judged, and for your servants the prophets, for the saints and for those who fear your name, small and great alike, to be rewarded. The time has come to destroy those who are destroying the earth.’
    Then the sanctuary of God in heaven opened, and the ark of the covenant could be seen inside it. Then came flashes of lightning, peals of thunder and an earthquake and violent hail.


May 31, 2001

Jesus speaks:     

              The time is now. I have come in My Movement, Shepherds of Christ to help
                        renew the Church and the world.
                        The writings I give will live on
                         and on and on.

               You can be the weak link, instead of 
                    putting your heart in this mission
                      and My calling-you serve, but
                      not whole heartedly, dreaming for the
                        day of leadership here below.

                        Dreaming and dreaming and dreaming.

                         I want you to see the seriousness of this
                             mission.

                         Do you see Mary on the building, did you
                               ever think you would be given
                               such a gift and called to be
                                a special leader for Jesus
                                  and Mary?


March 21, 2001
Mary is the Ark of the Covenant


 

Excerpt from March 25, 2001 Daily Message

Messenger:     I sat Beneath the image and I felt
                             like complaining, I was in a car, I was worried
                             about the documentary.

                    Then I saw Mary on the building and I received
                             a light.


March 21, 2001

                    I saw clearly, the gift God had given to us.
                             What would make me happy?

                    I felt I was never satisfied and I felt
                             so ashamed.

                    God has given us this gift and how could
                             I not be grateful and thank Him and
                             praise Him and look at Mary
                             and enjoy the moments.

Jesus speaks: Live in the present moments.

                   Do you enjoy the moments you have now?

                   Do you realize how gifted you are that
                             I have lifted the veil and given you
                             such gifts?

                     Putting up walls, not working with others,
                             being angry and bitter at someone
                             keeps you stuck.

                     Have you helped to produce fruit for the
   
                                kingdom?

  

Jesus speaks: Do I tell myself I am holy and then
                             Have bitterness in my heart?

                    Do I want someone else to make me
                             happy?

                    Am I hard to get along with?

                    Do I work against the leader?

Messenger:     I told God how grateful I was for
                             His gifts of Mary on the building.

                    Late in the afternoon she (Mary) showed
                             me and John and Emily a
                             light show of such beauty.


Excerpt from March 21, 2001 Daily Message

Messenger:     We went to the Virgin Mary building
                        and she looked sort of dull. 
                    It was raining and the sky was very dark. 
                    She became as gold reflective jewelry 
                        accented by rainbow color like none 
                        we have ever seen.

Messenger:     Today is March 21, 2001.

                    Tomorrow is Lucia's birthday.

                    Tomorrow is the anniversary when the 
                        corner fell off the old seminary.

                    Now Mary is appearing brighter than ever. 
                        It is still raining, the sun is out. 
                    The tree to the right of Mary is brilliant green 
                        and above the tree going far into the sky 
                        is a rainbow so thick and so deep of 
                        purple, blue, yellow, orangish-red, 
                        deeper than any rainbow we have ever seen, 
                        wider than any rainbow. 
                        It is vividly present here.

The rainbow looks like an arch

Messenger:     Tomorrow is a special day and 
                        we will tell you about it later.


Messenger:  I remember when Father Carter said the Mass July 5, 2000, the first time we were able to photograph the gold Mary, Mary appeared golden by day. But today the beauty of her is far beyond I have ever seen. She is glowing in golden array, adorned in rainbow light.


Messenger:    The golden color of Mary is now gone 
                        and she is accented in rainbow color, 
                        deeply adorned in blue.

Messenger:    What a gift God gives to us!

                    It is about time for the 6:20 prayers to begin.

                    She looks so blue, her head is still lighted, 
                        you can see the clouds filter through her face.

                    Thank you God for this gift.

      

(End of excerpt from March 21, 2001 Daily Message)


Messenger:    See how Mary appears to be lighted.

Jesus speaks: I give you a garden and you complain.

                    A garden bears fruit.

                    I do not like anyone working against
                             My plan.

                    See Me now in your midst.

                    Do  you think I am pleased with your
                             superior attitude?

                    You are not the ruler, I am.

                    Let your walls down.

                    Learn what love is all about.

                    How can you live in a family when you do
                             not trust them?

                    You trust Me and cause everybody I sent
                             to you to love, trouble.

                    I did not send you into the garden to make
                             your life an agony.

                    I sent you in there to smile and be
                             grateful, to praise your God,
                             to build up My Body.

                    I sent you into the world to spread
                             My Movement.

                    When you hurt My Movement, you hurt Me.

Jesus speaks: Some people are just in the habit of causing
                             others grief.

                    They want something no one can give them
                             but Me.

                    They hunger for love and they think they
                             will be satisfied here (in this earthly life).

                    Take the scum from your eyes and see.

                    I see you and all you do with your superior
                             attitude.

                    You cause tension for everyone else.

                    I am gentle and kind and loving and
                             I love all.

                    China is My Eucharistic Center.

                    On April 13, 2001 it will be Good Friday.

                    How did you walk with Me during Lent?

                    Did you help build up My Body?

                    Did you help build up My Movement?

                    I give you My Movement and ask you
                             to help Me.

                    What a gift, I give you.

                    All pictures I gave you.

                    Are you sitting under the image of My Mother
                            complaining or praising God for the
   
                               gift I gave you?

                    A man looked out a window and he saw the star studded
                            night.

                    Another man looked out and he saw mud.

May 31, 2001

Jesus speaks:  Would you rather I scold you to get your
                                   attention or pour out My love lavishly
                                   to you?

     From the song, "I love you Jesus"
               
here is a line

                              " I scarce can breathe when you
                                      come into me"

              My child, you can love Me and give yourself

                            lavishly as I ask in this song or

                            you can ignore your God, using His name in

                             vain.

                I give you a free will.

              Do you will God's will?

              Do you want your own will?



Father Carter's Homily – May 26, 2000

John 15:12-17

"This is my commandment:

love one another,

as I have loved you.

No one can have greater love

than to lay down his life for his friends.

You are my friends,

if you do what I command you.

I shall no longer call you servants,

because a servant does not know

the master’s business;

I call you friends,

because I have made known to you

everything I have learnt from my Father.

You did not choose me,

no, I chose you;

and I commissioned you

to go out and to bear fruit,

fruit that will last;

so that the Father will give you

anything you ask him in my name.

My command to you

is to love one another."

 

Fr. Carter's Homily:

When a person has chosen to head up a charitable organization, or when a person is chosen to be director of a board of trustees of a prestigious university, those people so chosen feel very honored and elated that they were chosen among so many other possibilities to perform a very considerable task. And they go about that task of heading up the charitable organization or the board of trustees with great enthusiasm, with as complete dedication as time and energy will allow because they want to fulfill the trust which has been placed in them.

In today's Gospel Jesus says, "You did not choose me, no, I chose you." (John 15:16) Think of it: the Son of God chooses each of us for a very, very, very special task, much more important than just heading up a certain charitable organization, much more important than being the head of a board of trustees of a prestigious university. Do we have the same enthusiasm, the same dedication that these people who were chosen for these lesser tasks have?

St. Philip Neri – he certainly responded so beautifully and to such a high degree of love to the choice which Jesus had made of him, and so did all the saints. And so we always have to reflect: how do I look upon the fact that Jesus, the incarnate Son of God has chosen me for a very, very, very special mission which no one else can fulfill? Again, are we as enthusiastic about Jesus' choice of us for this very, very special mission as the children of this world are, as they respond to choices made of them for various purposes with such great enthusiasm and dedication?

Of course it is the Eucharist which gives us the chief source of grace to fulfill the choice Jesus has made of each of us to such a high degree. The saints – they depended upon that same Eucharist and they so admirably fulfilled the mission attached to Jesus' choice of them because they used those graces of the Eucharist in such eminent fashion.

And so each day as we offer the Eucharistic Sacrifice along with Jesus and as we receive Him at Communion time, let us ask Him, "Dear Jesus, in Your great, tender love You have chosen me for such a special mission to be fulfilled here below. Allow me to respond to Your choice with the greatest enthusiasm, commitment, vigor and effectiveness which Your grace will allow me. Jesus, thank You for choosing me."

 

Father Carter's Homily – May 31, 2000

Luke 1: 39-56

The visitation

Mary set out at that time and went as quickly as she could into the hill country to a town in Judah. She went into Zechariah’s house and greeted Elizabeth. Now it happened that as soon as Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the child leapt in her womb and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. She gave a loud cry and said, ‘Of all women you are the most blessed, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. Why should I be honoured with a visit from the mother of my Lord? Look, the moment your greeting reached my ears, the child in my womb leapt for joy. Yes, blessed is she who believed that the promise made her by the Lord would be fulfilled.’

The Magnificat

  And Mary said:

    My soul proclaims
        the greatness of the Lord
    and my spirit rejoices
        in God my Saviour;
    because he has looked upon
        the humiliation of his servant.
    Yes, from now onwards
        all generations will call me blessed,
    for the Almighty
        has done great things for me.
    Holy is his name,
    and his faithful love extends age after age
        to those who fear him.
    He has used the power of his arm,
    he has routed the arrogant of heart.
    He has pulled down princes
        from their thrones
            and raised high the lowly.
    He has filled the starving with good things,
        sent the rich away empty.
    He has come to the help
        of Israel his servant,
            mindful of his faithful love
    —according to the promise
        he made to our ancestors—
    of his mercy to Abraham
        and to his descendants for ever.

    Mary stayed with her some three months and then went home.

 

Fr. Carter's Homily:

I don't know if any of you have been privileged to visit the Holy Land. I was privileged to be over there about three weeks in summer of 1987. If you have been there you know how far it is from Nazareth up to where Elizabeth was – has been told to us that she lived there in that area not too far from Jerusalem. So it is quite a long distance and Mary no doubt had to make that trip on donkey, so it was an arduous trip for her and here we see her great characteristic of always thinking of others. While she herself was carrying child she was thinking of Elizabeth her cousin. And her visitation, what did it include? Not only her own presence but the presence of Jesus in her womb. And so this is Mary's ongoing role given to her by the Father, that each day as Mother, as Mother of Jesus and our Mother, each day she visits us anew and she does not come alone as she did not come alone to Elizabeth's house – she came with Jesus. And so it is with us relative to her daily visitation to us. Each day through her great, powerful maternal intercession she helps bring Jesus to us.

St. Louis de Montfort, one of the great apostles of devotion to Mary, has said in his writings that in these latter days the great saints, at least many of the great saints, holy ones to be raised up by God, will be given a great, great devotion to Mary. And you can see the reason for his thought, because a completely mature spirituality realizes that Jesus never comes to us without the intercession, without the powerful maternal role of Mary as she works, as she cooperates with her Spouse the Holy Spirit to form Jesus in us more and more.

So let us not miss the time of our visitation. Are we open to Mary's visits to us each day as she helps bring Jesus close to us? Mother of our Savior and our Mother, pray for us.

A PLEDGE FROM AN APOSTLE OF THE SACRED HEART

Messenger:

          I am but a little speck on this earth,
                 but with His might He can use me
                 to spread the devotion to His
                 Most Sacred Heart.

          Oh dear and precious Heart of Jesus

                 ends of the earth for Your most

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.

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.

(End of Mary's Message)


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.
