Prayer for Grace for our Country
Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our new president as he takes office. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

R. God shows us He is Our Father by
giving us life –
God calls us to live life to be
loving, to be in God's image
and likeness.
Every person is called to grow
spiritually to progress
in sincere self knowledge
and to do penance for their
sins.
We are here to work on our eternal life
and to help others to get to
heaven.
God gives us living water!
God calls us to share in His
life – to rise above our
wounded human nature and to
grow in the virtues. God gives
us a share in greater happiness –
happiness depends on life in God.
Christ is the new Adam. Christ paid
a precious price for the gift He
gave us.
John 3: 16
For this is how God loved the world:
he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him
may not perish
but may have eternal life.
R. Christ came to give us life so we
could have abundant life –
Song: I Love You Jesus
R. Jesus' miracles were miracles
of life! Miracles of health
and sight and hearing.
Jesus is the Bread of Life –
Jesus is the vine we are the branches
life is in being one with
Jesus.
The sharing in His life is
supernatural life.
It comes through union
with God –
God loved us first –
Response to God's love –
We have a free will to
choose darkness or
to choose joy, happiness,
love in Him.
We can be in heaven for eternity,
it never ends, but we
must choose to live
by God's commandments –
the commandments of love –
Man is to be obedient to God –
Learn to be obedient to those
under God – over them.
The Church is to bring us to Christ –
Christ is the head of the
mystical body –
Jesus Christ is God – the Son of God –
Jesus became man – Jesus is
a Divine Person with two
Natures: a Human Nature
a Divine Nature –
Jesus was born and lived
a hidden life for 30 years –
The Sacred Heart devotion is
to show us the Love of
the Sacred Heart –
pure and perfect love.
Mark 7: 1-8, 14-15, 21-23
The Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered round him, and they noticed that some of his disciples were eating with unclean hands, that is, without washing them. For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, keep the tradition of the elders and never eat without washing their arms as far as the elbow; and on returning from the market place they never eat without first sprinkling themselves. There are also many other observances which have been handed down to them to keep, concerning the washing of cups and pots and bronze dishes. So the Pharisees and scribes asked him, 'Why do your disciples not respect the tradition of the elders but eat their food with unclean hands?' He answered, 'How rightly Isaiah prophesied about you hypocrites in the passage of scripture:
This people honours me
only with lip-service,
while their hearts are far from me.
Their reverence of me is worthless;
the lessons they teach
are nothing but human commandments.You put aside the commandment of God to observe human traditions.
He called the people to him again and said, 'Listen to me, all of you, and understand. Nothing that goes into someone from outside can make that person unclean; it is the things that come out of someone that make that person unclean.
For it is from within, from the heart, that evil intentions emerge: fornication, theft, murder, adultery, avarice, malice, deceit, indecency, envy, slander, pride, folly. All these evil things come from within and make a person unclean.'
R. We are to be in the image and
likeness of God –
Jesus is love –
Jesus taught love –
Jesus showed us obedience
Jesus laid down His life for us
Jesus showed us about loving
each other –
What we do to others –
we do to Jesus
Excerpt from Response to God's Love by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
... In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.
The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.
At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ. St. Paul tells us: "I became a minister of this Church through the commission God gave me to preach among you his word in its fullness, that mystery hidden from ages and generations past but now revealed to his holy ones. God has willed to make known to them the glory beyond price which this mystery brings to the Gentiles—the mystery of Christ in you, your hope of glory. This is the Christ we proclaim while we admonish all men and teach them in the full measure of wisdom, hoping to make every man complete in Christ" (Col 1:25-28).
R. Mystical Body of Christ
(1) Union with Christ
(2) Union with one another
We are brothers and sisters –
We need to treat each other like
brothers and sisters –
God calls us to be united to the
Mass – the sacrifice of Calvary
sacramentally made present –
The Church is ONE, HOLY,
CATHOLIC and
APOSTOLIC –
John 17: 20-23
I pray not only for these
but also for those
who through their teaching
will come to believe in me.
May they all be one,
just as, Father, you are in me
and I am in you,
so that they also may be in us,
so that the world may believe
it was you who sent me.
I have given them the glory
you gave to me,
that they may be one as we are one.
With me in them and you in me,
may they be so perfected in unity
that the world will recognise
that it was you who sent me
and that you have loved them
as you have loved me.
R. Unity in Christ the head!
Visible unity in Catholic
Church – we believe the
same truths –
We have the same sacraments –
We have the same worship –
The Holy Father is the visible
center of this unity.
We are united with others
in Christ –
Shepherds of Christ is to pray for the
renewal of the Church and the world –
UNITY
We are to ask –
What does Christ want of us –
We are to follow Christ as
closely as we can –
Some people who call themselves
holy are poor examples of
this – they hurt many
by being negative witnesses,
rebelling against Christ
A person who loves God – doesn't
ask – "how little can I give"
We ask what does Jesus
want of me – how best
can I serve Jesus –
how can I be faithful to Jesus –
Matthew 16:15-19 'But you,' he said, 'who do you say I am?' Then Simon Peter spoke up and said, 'You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.' Jesus replied, 'Simon son of Jonah, you are a blessed man! Because it was no human agency that revealed this to you but my Father in heaven. So I now say to you: You are Peter and on this rock I will build my community. And the gates of the underworld can never overpower it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of Heaven: whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven; whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.'
Jesus: The Shepherds of Christ was given
by My Father to bring unity and
love and help renew My Church.

R. Do you have hope?
To see the beauty God created –
To see through the eyes of God.
Beauty in nature
Beauty in a baby's eyes
Beauty in a baby's little hand
Beauty just watching a baby walk!
A woman/man would not move and so
she/he just got more and more
angry and nobody could
stop her/his pain and revenge and
hatred, but herself/himself –
he lived a lie – make his darkness –
bring others down!
Did you ever see the sunshine
bridge?
Did you ever see the
sunlit sky of a
child's picture –
Reality is seeing beautiful
waters and land and
a bridge bringing the
lands together.
R. Love builds a bridge
Love sees beauty –
Evil is from inside the
heart
Folly tears it down with its
evil heart!
CONFLICT
PASSIVE - AGGRESSIVE
R. ῀ Beauty and love ῀
Open my heart
Lord
Let me see
your face
Seek ye first the
Kingdom of God
Two men looked out prison bars
one saw mud, the other stars –
How does one seeing through
God's eyes see
R. Seeing with Light and Truth
Gospel of Sunday - read 3 times
Mark 7: 1-8, 14-15, 21-23
The Pharisees and some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem gathered round him, and they noticed that some of his disciples were eating with unclean hands, that is, without washing them. For the Pharisees, and all the Jews, keep the tradition of the elders and never eat without washing their arms as far as the elbow; and on returning from the market place they never eat without first sprinkling themselves.

R. The Gospel is the Good News –
The Gospel is the living Word of God
The Gospel shows us a picture of Jesus.
Seeing men in the image and likeness of God.
A person has an image of life in
their mind and heart –
A man with love in his heart
is more likened to Jesus
he sees unity
he sees people working,
praying together, he
sees family –
he sees babies as sacred gifts from God –
DISTORTED VISION
How does a depressed man see
R. Seeing in darkness – distortedly
A person that has given into sin –
sees darkness
sees disorder
carries a weight on their back –
wants people out of their space –
doesn't have love in their hearts
for their brothers
doesn't see family – sees isolation
sees control
trying to make, force men in his
image and likeness
Genesis 1: 26-27
God said, ‘Let us make man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and let them be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven, the cattle, all the wild animals and all the creatures that creep along the ground.’
God created man in the image of himself,
in the image of God he created him,
male and female he created them.
Song: Give Me your heart oh Jesus
R. Faith
R. Sees through the vision of the
Heavenly Father
Love
Compassion
Family
Light
Unity
Forgiveness
R. God is
Absolute Truth
Divine Wisdom
Reality Veiled
Seeing Divine Glory
Seeing the Light of our
own graced soul –
Seeing through the eyes
of God
Beauty of a child –
Splendor of God
Reality –
R. Humility – like the heart of Mary
Mary had no malice –
Her actions were centered on God –
She was under God –
She was sinless –
January 5, 1997
"BABY, BARE BABY, LAID BARE"R. On January 5, 1997, I was wakened by Our Lord and He was mumbling as He was around my bed as He did on October 8, 1997, when He delivered the "Seedless, Barren, No Fruit on the Vine" message.
I heard Him and He repeated the words over and over again. I had a copy of the all-night message on the floor, I jumped from the bed and began to write around the message, for it was the only paper available and He was speaking very plainly and direct. I wrote this message in the margins of the paper. He kept repeating "BABY, BARE BABY, LAID BARE".
Jesus: Open yourself, Oh Jerusalem, your time is come you will be a light to the people in darkness, many will walk whence you come and the earth will be shakened and the light will come across a dark sky and enlighten their minds.
Oh stiff-necked people, you are so stiff in your ways, let the spirit envelope you and lead you on your way.
A country of stiffs, a people of planning and prodding, of deliberating and wondering—you lack faith, Jerusalem, you lack faith in God.
Oh walk naked into the cold night, you are cold in your hearts and naked in your clothing—I cloth you with glory, I light your face with light, but you turn your cheeks to the darkness and stay stiff-necked in your hearts. Oh cold and dark hearts, reach for the light that you may know the glory that awaits the sinners and enlightens their minds.

R. God shows us His wonder in

God shows us His creation from nothing –
We are in awe
God is Infinite Perfection –
Absolute Truth –
We can go to heaven and see God –

Moses went up the Mountain
to get the commandments
and his face was
bright!
Creatures have defects here

God is all good
How did we live?

Prayer for Union with Jesus
Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.
I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.F
I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.
When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.
-God's Blue Book, January 17, 1994
A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul
Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.
R. 1991
Jesus told me
we were attracted to Him
like steel to a magnet –
But we have a free will
We can turn our back
to God –
Independence –
Trying to be in control
over God
Revelation 21: 1-8
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; the first heaven and the first earth had disappeared now, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride dressed for her husband. Then I heard a loud voice call from the throne, ‘Look, here God lives among human beings. He will make his home among them; they will be his people, and he will be their God, God–with–them. He will wipe away all tears from their eyes; there will be no more death, and no more mourning or sadness or pain. The world of the past has gone.’
Then the One sitting on the throne spoke. ‘Look, I am making the whole of creation new. Write this, "What I am saying is trustworthy and will come true." Then he said to me, ‘It has already happened. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give water from the well of life free to anybody who is thirsty; anyone who proves victorious will inherit these things; and I will be his God and he will be my son. But the legacy for cowards, for those who break their word, or worship obscenities, for murderers and the sexually immoral, and for sorcerers, worshippers of false gods or any other sort of liars, is the second death in the burning lake of sulphur.’
R. The Shepherds of Christ is for the renewal
of the Church and the world
July 31, 1994
Words of Jesus to Members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates:"My beloved priest-companion, I intend to use the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, and the movement, Shepherds of Christ Associates, in a powerful way for the renewal of My Church and the world.
"I will use the newsletter and the chapters of Shepherds of Christ Associates as a powerful instrument for spreading devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart.
"I am calling many to become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. To all of them I will give great blessings. I will use them as instruments to help bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My Sacred Heart. I will give great graces to the members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united to My Heart and to Mary's Heart as I lead them ever closer to My Father in the Holy Spirit."
- Message from Jesus to Father Edward J. Carter, S.J., Founder, as given on July 31, 1994,
feast of Saint Ignatius Loyola, Founder of the Society of Jesus (The Jesuits)
Act of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
"Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock, I consecrate myself to Your most Sacred Heart. From Your pierced Heart the Church was born, the Church You have called me, as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, to serve in a most special way. You reveal Your Heart as a symbol of Your love in all its aspects, including Your most special love for me, whom You have chosen as Your companion in this most important work. Help me to always love You in return. Help me to give myself entirely to You. Help me always to pour out my life in love of God and neighbor! Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in You!
"Dear Blessed Virgin Mary, I consecrate myself to your maternal and Immaculate Heart, this Heart which is symbol of your life of love. You are the Mother of my Savior. You are also my Mother. You love me with a most special love as a member of Shepherds of Christ Associates, a movement created by your Son as a powerful instrument for the renewal of the Church and the world. In a return of love, I give myself entirely to your motherly love and protection. You followed Jesus perfectly. You are His first and perfect disciple. Teach me to imitate you in the putting on of Christ. Be my motherly intercessor so that, through your Immaculate Heart, I may be guided to an ever closer union with the pierced Heart of Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the flock."
September 1, 2015 - Fr. Joe Homily for a Funeral
1 Corinthians 13: 1-13
Though I command languages both human and angelic, if I speak without love, I am no more than a gong booming or a cymbal clashing. And though I have the power of prophecy, to penetrate all mysteries and knowledge, and though I have all the faith necessary to move mountains, if I am without love, I am nothing. Though I should give away to the poor all that I possess, and even give up my body to be burned, if I am without love, it will do me no good whatever.
Love is always patient and kind; love is never jealous; love is not boastful or conceited, it is never rude and never seeks its own advantage, it does not take offence or store up grievances. Love does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but finds its joy in the truth. It is always ready to make allowances, to trust, to hope and to endure whatever comes.
Love never comes to an end. But if there are prophecies, they will be done away with; if tongues, they will fall silent; and if knowledge, it will be done away with. For we know only imperfectly, and we prophesy imperfectly; but once perfection comes, all imperfect things will be done away with. When I was a child, I used to talk like a child, and see things as a child does, and think like a child; but now that I have become an adult, I have finished with all childish ways. Now we see only reflections in a mirror, mere riddles, but then we shall be seeing face to face. Now I can know only imperfectly; but then I shall know just as fully as I am myself known.
As it is, these remain: faith, hope and love, the three of them; and the greatest of them is love.
R. Fr. Joe said to be a pastor
you know and love people and
then you have to say "good-bye"
When I first went to St. Boniface
I went to Elaine & Paul's and gave them
a certificate from the Archdiocese
for being married 50 years.
John 14: 1-7
Do not let your hearts be troubled.
You trust in God, trust also in me.
In my Father's house
there are many places to live in;
otherwise I would have told you.
I am going now to prepare a place for you,
and after I have gone
and prepared you a place,
I shall return to take you to myself,
so that you may be with me
where I am.
You know the way
to the place where I am going.Thomas said, 'Lord, we do not know where you are going, so how can we know the way?' Jesus said:
I am the Way; I am Truth and Life.
No one can come to the Father
except through me.
If you know me,
you will know my Father too.
From this moment you know him
and have seen him.
R. Paul & Elaine were blessed
to spend 72 years married –
Fr. Joe said my mother died
when I was in high school –
and this is a special blessing
to have a mom and dad and
children for all these years.
God has better plans for
us – God put us here to serve
Him, to love one another, to
be with Him for all eternity –
Elaine was a good wife,
a good mother – when she and
Paul went to bed they told
each other they loved each other
as they held hands. In
the other hand she held
her rosary – that sums
up her life –
Jesus said He came so
we could have life –
We will all be where
Elaine is, some day
and she will have the fullness
of life –
Let's pray for each other
for when we go to our
last day.
We may be sad, but
we don't have to be
sad for Elaine because
we should be happy for
her. We just won't have
her for a little while –
We thank God for all
our blessings – Elaine was
so missed, her grandchildren
one after another got
up and cried for grandma -
they couldn't even talk to say one petition–
All of them cried –
Elaine always had her rosary –
The boys got up and cried –
for grandma a man said
as he prayed the intentions –
Elaine loved so much and
Elaine was loved by children,
grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Men who were balding were
praying for grandma in these intentions.
God is our strength –
God is our focus –
God is our Creator –
We are His creatures –
Sing: On This Day –
The Church was full for
grandma, mom and
spouse –
Calling to Mary – Our Mother –
Mother of her children
she calls out to pray for –
for her children which is
why she appeared in Clearwater –
to tell the world –
She is the Mother of Peace –
Mary, our Mother, conceived
without sin –
Mary is our Mother –
Mary conceived without sin –
Mary Mother of Jesus –
The Church was full –
We are called to be witnesses
of Jesus' love –
This earthly dwelling will turn
to dust –

Guiding Light homily series — Reflect on the Word — Cycle B The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15 |
Guiding Light homily series — Steadfast to the Son — Cycle A The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 |
Guiding Light — Focusing on the Word — Cycle B At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |
Guiding Light — Feed My Soul — Cycle C In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |

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