We are working on Fr. Joe's new Homily Books.
From Blue Book 11
April 22, 1996
Jesus: I have spoken to you on the 22nd
of the month concerning the Center and the Shepherds of Christ
Movement. The Center will light up the darkened world. I ask you
to spread the messages of My love in God's Blue Book. I am a
burning fire filled with such love for men. My light will shine
when hearts are joined in deepest love with My Heart. You will
unite in one mind and one heart when all are consecrated in
their hearts and are fervently loving My Heart and My Mother's
heart.
Jesus gave me a message:
I want Blue Book 10 published and the
Parents and Children's Rosary Book reprinted.
The Blue Book 10 and the
Parents and Children's Book
should be presented together as a unit
because they are from January 1st, 1996 to March 31, 1996.
I would like the Parents and Children's Book
in Spanish printed with the Imprimatur.
Pray for Special Intentions

Dan called and gave the report to me, when I hung up I saw
this rainbow and took a picture for him.

From Blue Book 12
July 23, 1996
R. Last week during Tuesday's rosary at the Farm, (July
16, 1996) instead of receiving a meditation or message on the last Hail
Mary, I saw a miracle of the sun. It began as Fr. Carter prayed the second
last Hail Mary. I was in such awe and detached from my surroundings that I
could not pray this last meditation or message. It continued for 10 to 15
minutes. I looked at it without any discomfort to my eyes.
The sun looked like heart tissue. It was dark reddish. It kept dividing.
There were red and yellow rays of light coming forth from this heart. It
looked as cells dividing. It was pulsating.
He told me, that it was His beating Heart. That as we in the Shepherds of
Christ Movement give our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, though we
are many, we are one in Their Hearts and rapidly growing in His beating
Heart, pulsating in this world as He lives in us with His burning love.
I did not say anything later, because if you look at the sun you can
damage your eyes. We are not encouraging anyone to look at the sun, and we
are not responsible if you do look at the sun.
Love is Giving
Message given through Rita Ring
R. This is transcribed from a tape at 5:00 A.M. Jesus
wished this message passed out at the Farm.
Jesus: My dear child, I ask you to surrender. When will
you come to the womb of My Mother and surrender? It is there that you will
receive My life. It is there that the Holy Spirit works in you to sanctify
you, to change you from your willful and controlling ways. Love is the gift
of self to one another. You must give yourselves. I gave Myself on the
cross. Your life is a constant learning process of how to love more
perfectly. Your ways of love are imperfect ways. You are molded. You are
shaped by the Spirit within the heart of My Mother to My ways of love. As
you dwell in her heart and My Heart, you are My work of art, for you are
formed and molded into My image through the Holy Spirit. You must die to
yourself child, die to yourself that I can live in you. You are resistant to
change. You want to hold on to those things that are familiar to you. Many
times those things that are familiar to you are not My ways. I am calling
you to surrender, that the Holy Spirit can work within you and form you in
the womb of My Mother more to My image and likeness. I am Jesus. I come to
you to make you holy and loving. I live in you. I minister to this hurting
world through you. You are transformed more and more into My image and
likeness through the Holy Spirit. The incarnation continues, and you are
formed and molded into My image and likeness. I live in this world in you,
My beloved ones. You must surrender and let Me possess your soul. Let Me
live in you. You are afraid. You are afraid in your hearts that you will be
left out. Love is the gift of self to another. You will not give as long as
you hold on to your selfish ways. It is in giving that you receive. It is in
loving that you will be loved, I loved you first, and I give to you Myself.
You must focus on how I love you. You act lovingly when you feel loved. I
love you so much. Will you listen to Me and realize that I love you? You are
saturated with My love, but your hearts must be open that I can fill you and
mold you into My ways. Within the heart of My Mother, the Holy Spirit works
to make you holy. It is in dwelling in Our Hearts, the Hearts of greatest
love, that you will be saturated with My life and My love. The more I live
in you, the more I act in you. You must surrender. It is an act of your will
to love one another. I loved to My death. I loved when I was persecuted. I
loved when I was beaten. I loved you so much. I came into this world a
helpless baby to show you how to love. You must surrender and give yourself.
Love is giving of yourself. The key is to focus on the giving and not the
receiving. Surrender to Me, and I will give to you My divine love. And you,
My child, will have enough, I provide for all your needs. You act selfishly
when you are afraid. It is in fear that you punish yourself and punish all
those you touch. My life will flow through you when you are an instrument of
love.
R. When I give of myself, I am happy. When I am selfish,
I am unhappy. Happiness is a loving heart.
Prayer: I love You, Jesus. I love you, Mary. It is for
the sake of the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of the Immaculate
Heart I am working. God, come and strengthen me, I want to be one in Thee.
Come and live in my soul.
July 4, 2013 Rosary
Afternoon in Clearwater, Florida
Transcribed Live from a Tape
Song: The Rosary Song
Glorious Mysteries
Resurrection
1. Excerpt from July 4, 1996 Rosary
R. These are the Glorious Mysteries of the
rosary. This is a rosary from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Meditate
on the love that Jesus has for us.
2. Jesus: I call you to open your heart, to
open your heart and let Me fill you with My burning love, for I am
Jesus, and I am calling to you this afternoon, each one of you
gathered here, to open your heart and let Me fill you with My love.
I am longing to be so close to you, but you must open your heart and
hear the message that I wish to deliver to you.
3. R. Meditate on the withered body of Jesus
as He hung on the cross. See vividly before your eyes this body
covered with blood and wounded. Jesus Christ gave His all. He died.
He was locked in a tomb for three days, and on the third day, He
rose victorious from that tomb.
4. R. This rosary is the story of the lives
of Jesus and Mary. In Baptism we receive a sharing in His life.
Think of the sufferings that Jesus suffered, that we would be able
to share in His life. Jesus paid a precious price for us. See Jesus
as He comes forth victorious from the tomb on the third day
glistening and in white. This is our beloved Jesus that came to this
earth and gave Himself because of His great love for us. Let us open
our heart, and let Him fill us with His abundant grace and His love.
5. R. The Apostles did not recognize Jesus.
The Apostles walked with Jesus. They talked with Jesus, but they did
not understand. They were so happy to see Jesus after the
Resurrection. Look at us today. Jesus is alive. He is truly present
in the Eucharist in His Divinity and humanity, the same as the day
that He walked this earth. But look how He is forgotten and ignored
by the souls that He loves so dearly.
6. R. My beloved Jesus, I go to the
tabernacle, I know before me the presence of the Almighty God, that
You are there the same as the day that You walked this earth, and I
hear You cry out how You are ignored and forgotten, how You long and
You wait for the souls to come and to spend time with You, how You
want to be so close to us, how You gave Your life for love of us. My
heart is broken to hear the laments from the tabernacle, of Your
burning love and You cry forth, "Tell them Rita! Tell them! Tell
them how I am longing and waiting for them to come. I wait for My
precious souls to come and to tell Me of their love for Me."
7. Song: I Love You Jesus
8. R. Jesus is a Person. He is alive this
day, and He is calling to each one of us to open our heart, we must
open our hearts. He gives to us His life, and we act as channels of
this life to the world. We touch so many in our lives this day.
9. Jesus: Let Me touch you in a special way,
My beloved ones, for I am longing to be so close to you. I want to
give you My burning love on fire for you, but you must open your
heart and let Me fill you with My love.
10. Hail Mary
Song: Come Holy Spirit
The Ascension
1. Jesus: I am with you, My dear ones, at
every second. I am with you, and I am guarding you. The very hairs
of your head are numbered. Put aside all of the anxieties and the
fears within your heart, and let Me touch you in a special way in
this rosary. I will not leave you. I will stay close to you and
protect you and guard you.
2. R. Jesus gave His life for love of us. He
suffered the brutal passion. We see Him hanging on the cross, and then
we see He rose from the dead. Jesus came forth from the tomb in such
splendor and brilliance, and we know that He gives to us this sharing in
His life.
end of excerpt
July 4, 2013 Rosary continues
3. Jesus: Come away with Me, for the night is
long and the day is a day that I have given to you, that you will be
more one with Me in all of your actions, as you unite to the Holy
Sacrifice of the Mass. Focus on the souls of this earth, that need to be
touched, by My grace. I love you so much and I have called you to be My
instruments in the world, that as you live more and more, in holy lives,
that you will realize, more and more, that the Father wants you to be
united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in all that you do, all day. Do
not give into satan to distract you or to get you bowed down, for many
this day are suffering so, because of their own actions, when God has
called them to a great mission. They have turned away and they worship
the dirt.
4. Sing: One Little Light in the Darkness
5. Jesus: Open your heart wide at this moment,
surrender My child, that I may touch you in a special way. You hold on
so tight, teeth clenched, tightness in your body. Let go to Me.
Surrender. Have the relief that I am with you, that I am God and I am
Almighty and that you are not to fear, that the more that you are rooted
in Me, the more you will know a confidence and a strength, that I
created you for a purpose, that you want to go to the Holy Spirit, that
He will fill you with the wisdom of knowing the Father's will, that your
life will be lived according to the Father's plan, that your hearts will
not be shut down and afraid, to even trust the very people that I have
called, in your lives today, but there will be a genuine joy, because
you are focused, confidently that I am with you, that I love you, and
that you are to love and be united in love and joy, with one another.
6. R. And He ascended into heaven and He left
behind the Apostles to carry out the work that He had begun. And He said
He would send the Holy Spirit and He was going to prepare a place for
us. He is going to prepare a place for each of us, that love and serve
Him. And yet He has promised a reward to those that do as God wants.
Each one of us uniquely created with a special mission, a way of loving
that no one can love as we love. And for all eternity, that way of
loving that He gives to us, will reach a completion and fullness in
loving union with God and all others, if we go to heaven. Jesus ascended
into heaven to prepare a place for us, for you, for me. A place that we
cannot even fathom. He loves us so much. He loves us so much that He
died for us, that He rose on the 3rd day, but He gives to us the Church
and the priest, that He gives to us the blue skies and the baby at the
breast. He gives to us our breath at this very moment. He gives to us
our lives. Let us be filled with gratitude and not remorse for the
things, that we think we have to hold on to in this world, that are of
little or no account with regard to our eternal salvation. Let us keep
our focus on Him.
7. R. And He wants us to be cleansed, to be pure,
not tainted in our hearts, seeking things the way God wants them to be
in all things.
8. Jesus: And I come to you in the Holy Eucharist
and I want to be so close to you, for I am always with you My child,
loving you, and yet you can become consumed with fear, close your eyes,
frigid, rigid and turn away, from the very love that I want to give you,
when you are seeking love the most. It is in your foolishness to abandon
Me in those times of need, rather than to rely on Me and to know peace.
9. Jesus: Peace I give to you, My child, now. Let
go. Surrender. Think of all the good things that I have given to you,
rather than thinking of the things that are wrong, think of how every
day, you are given the gift of life. You are blessed abundantly and you
focus on the negative things and make yourself miserable.
10. R. But Jesus sometimes, I just don't feel as
close to You as other times. And yet I know that You are there, as You
are always there, and You give me some sign that I am not even
expecting, to know how close You really are. Dear Jesus, I want to offer
up my whole life in union with the Mass, for the priests, the Church and
the world, for the intentions that we have been praying for, for our
families and for all that touch them, for our donors and members, and
all that touch them, for all the people that we promised to pray for,
for healing here at the center, and that people will come and become
apostles for the Sacred Heart in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, for
vocations to all 7 categories, for love among the brethren, we pray.
R. We pray for healing in body, mind and soul. We
pray for miracles of healing. We pray that if it is God's will, that
Mary's image head will come back. We pray for those people with statues
with glass in their homes, that they will receive special blessings of
healing and unity, in their homes as they consecrate their homes to the
Hearts of Jesus and Mary, and pray for the priest, the Church and the
world as a family. We pray for those using the waters, that they will be
healed. We pray for the results of these retreats, that many will
receive tremendous graces. We thank You God for the 15 years that we
have been in this building, and for the apparitions of Our Lady, for the
apparitions that Mary has appeared to me for 19 years, and the
apparitions of Our Lady of Clearwater. We thank You God for everything.
Song: Spirit Song
The Descent of the Holy Spirit on the Apostles and
the Virgin Mary
1. Jesus: Trust in Me, that you will always be in
this tunnel of light, knowing that even though you do not know what will
happen tomorrow or what is the mystery of your lives, and your bodies,
whatever it is, the mystery of what your children may do, the mystery
what will happen with your jobs, whatever it is, that you will know
that, I am God and I am with you. Trust in Me. Do God's will in love.
2. Hail Mary
3. Sing: Veni Sancte Spiritus
4. Sing: Come Holy Spirit
5. Sing: Come Holy Ghost
6. Hail Mary
7. Hail Mary
8. Excerpt
from April 25, 1996 Rosary
Jesus: Oh youth of America, do you see how the children
and the young adults are being poisoned every moment on the television
and with video games? I am the Almighty God. I ask you to pray fervently
with your young hearts, for the Father will hear your prayers and He
will give to you great grace to help carry out His mission for you.
end of excerpt
July 4, 2013 Rosary continues
R. As long as we ignore all the messages that God has given,
with regard to the Junior Shepherds of Christ, we are in a stymied
position, where we are reaching none of the children. The
consecration cards that were vital in the very beginning of the
movement, when Mary began appearing every day, and continued through
all the apparitions, should not be put to rest, because we have
decided that they are unimportant. We should review what the
movement is all about, and the ministries that They have called us
to. If we have time to be sad in our hearts over many things, we
have time to have joy in our hearts, over all the ministries that
God has called us to, and how He wants us to reach the Nursing
Homes, the children, the people that are in their own homes and are
unable to go out, but can pray the rosaries in the Nursing Home
Books. We must focus on what God has called us to, in the Shepherds
of Christ. In this way, we will reach all the different walks of
life, the way that God wants us to, to reach them with the same
message that Mary gave at Fatima, which was ignored and there was
World War II. Mary has given to us a message to spread the
consecration to the priests, to the Sisters, to the hierarchy, to
the families, to the children, to the elderly. We cannot ever
ignore the basic message that Mary gave at Fatima and has delivered
to us. For she is warning us of what we must do in order to have
peace in the world. Mary is the Queen of Peace. Let us focus on the
ministries and let us not ignore this calling any longer.
9. R. Here is a message from 19 years ago, on July 31, 1994.
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."
10. Jesus: I have called you to contact the
priests, to contact the schools and to contact the families.
Jesus: I want My priests to come back.
The Assumption of the Virgin Mary into Heaven, Body
and Soul
1. R. In all of the 19 years, and that's what it
will be tomorrow, that Mary has appeared to me, the message that she has
given to me, over and over again, is the message of how many souls are
going to hell. If she gave me this message 17 years, August 27, 1996,
how much more that message is of importance today, 17 years later.
2. R. And Jesus has given to us the Mighty
Medicine, He gave to Fr. Carter this message.
Apostles
of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus
My dear fellow
Associate Members,
Jesus is calling special apostles to join a new division
of the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Here is a message from Jesus given to
Father Carter:
My beloved priest-companion, I am requesting that a new prayer movement be
started under the direction of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I am asking
for volunteers who are willing to pray before the Blessed Sacrament for one
hour, twice-weekly. Members of the Shepherds of Christ prayer chapters, as
well as others, are to be invited to join this movement.
These apostles are to pray for the intentions I am giving you. For part of
the hour they are to use the prayers of the Shepherds of Christ Associates
Handbook. They may spend the rest of the hour as they so choose.
I will use this new prayer movement within My Shepherds of Christ Ministries
in a powerful way to help in the renewal of My Church and the world. I will
give great graces to those who join this movement. The name, Apostles of the
Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, is to be given to this movement.
I am inviting My beloved Rita Ring to be coordinator for this activity.
I pour out the great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief
Shepherd of the flock.

July 4,
2013 Rosary continues
R. So Fr. Carter got that about 17 years ago, but if we take this
ministry seriously, think of how that can effect the world and the Church if
what -- if there are people praying these prayers twice weekly in front of
the Blessed Sacrament.
3.
Apostles
of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus message continues:
This is indeed a special calling for us to unite in one heart with His
Eucharistic Heart and pray for the following intentions:
1. For the spread of the devotion to the Hearts of Jesus
and Mary culminating in the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph
of the Immaculate Heart.
end of excerpt
July 4,
2013 Rosary continues
R. There you have what she promised
would happen at Fatima, so why aren't we really telling people about
this, so that they are praying 2 hours weekly for these intentions, for
the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of Mary's Immaculate
Heart, in front of the tabernacle.
Apostles
of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus message continues:
2. For the Pope. (We
should be living praying these intentions.)
3. For all bishops of the world.
4. For all priests.
5. For all sisters and brothers in the religious life.
6. For all members of the Shepherds of Christ Movement,
and for the spread of this movement to the world.
7. For all members of the Catholic Church.
8. For all members of the human family.
9. For all souls in purgatory.
end of Apostles of the Eucharistic
Heart
July 4,
2013 Rosary continues
R. And I pray all these prayers in
this entire retreat, likewise for these intentions.
4. R. We must realize that the
message which is Mary's Message, that she wanted to play constantly
here, is not an old message. The message that she gave, is a message
that is of greater importance today, 17 years later, then when I
received it.
Mary's
Message
from the Rosary of August 27, 1996
Mary: 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.
end of excerpt
July 4, 2013 Rosary
continues
R. Why would we ignore
a message from our heavenly Mother telling us that the children are
going into hell. And that's exactly what she did at Fatima on July 13,
1917, but we tell ourselves it doesn't matter. She wants that message
playing all the time here.
Mary's message continues
Mary: I
appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and
I cried.
end of excerpt
July 4,
2013 Rosary continues
R.
And circulate it to people.
Mary's message continues
Mary: 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.
end of Mary's Message
July 4,
2013 Rosary continues
R. Mary says that in
honor of the 19 years that she appeared to me, delivering these
messages, that she wants this message on discs and she wants us to
circulate this out of China and out of this building, and Rosie to tell
the people on the phone, that are members that are calling that are
people that would be open, to tell them about Mary's Message, and to
make as many of these as we can and to circulate them.
5. R. And so we are
coming up again to the First Friday and First Saturday, and we know that
the Sacred Heart of Jesus wants us to really venerate His Heart on First
Friday, and to pray the rosary and pray to Immaculate Mary on the First
Saturday.
6. R. From a message
given, this was May 5th, it was a long time ago, it may have been 1995,
I am not exactly sure, but it says:
May 5, 1995 - Consecrate
Your Churches, Home, and Workplace to Our Hearts
Jesus: I want
you to consecrate the human race to Sacred Heart of Jesus.
July 4, 2013 Rosary continues
R. Dear God the Father, in as far as we are
able, we wish today and tomorrow on this big anniversary, to
consecration the entire human race to the Sacred Heart and to the
Immaculate Heart of Mary.
May 5, 1995 continues
Jesus: I want to
be enthroned in all homes, churches, and businesses.
July 4, 2013 Rosary continues.
R. We have to tell people that it doesn't
take much, to consecrate their homes and churches and or business,
and to put an image of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart in
those places and to honor Him, by telling Him how much we love Him
and making Him the King and Center of our homes.
May 5, 1995 continues
Jesus: June is the month
of the Sacred Heart. I want to be king and center of all hearts.
I will keep My promises given to St. Margaret Mary of Alacoque.
I promise all this from My most Sacred Heart. Consecrate your
chapter to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Consecrate the church or
room in which you hold your meeting.
Today is First Friday. I want you
to circulate the message I gave to you on consecrating your
homes to My Sacred Heart. Make booklets available for people to
be able to consecrate their homes and businesses easily. Use the
message I gave to you when you consecrated your home.
The Sacred Heart of Jesus will
reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph.
July 4, 2013 Rosary continues
R. This is what we want to focus on, what she
said at Fatima, would happen and what They have called us to do to
make that happen.
May 5, 1995 continues
Jesus: Consecrate all homes and
businesses to Our Two Hearts. Tell all to have displayed and
honored, pictures of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the
Immaculate Heart of Mary. May and June are the months of Mary
and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Tell all to consecrate their
homes to Our Two Hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. On this
day, the 5th of May, 1995, First Friday, I request that you
spend the next two months encouraging all to do this
consecration.
Gather your friends and say the
prayers I have instructed you to say. Sing "To Jesus Heart All
Burning" and "Immaculate Mary." May these Two Hearts of love
give all members of the human race peace, joy and love in their
hearts.
7. Hail Mary
8. Hail Mary
9. Hail Mary
10. Hail Mary
Sing: Immaculate Mary
The Coronation
1. May 5, 1995 continues
R. Jesus said He
desires to be honored by men in the Blessed Sacrament.
Jesus: Circulate
the Blue Book messages. They promote this devotion. How My Heart
is filled with happiness by the souls who come to the tabernacle
and sit with Me. I am Jesus Christ, I wait and long and thirst
for My precious souls to come. The souls of men have turned
cold. I want souls to come to daily communion and be with Me in
front of the tabernacle.
Men's hearts have turned cold.
They do not know what love really means. I want hearts that are
filled with fire for love of God. Men's hearts have turned to
stone.
You are to promote devotion to My
most Sacred Heart. I want hearts that burn with love for My
Heart. It is through Me that you will know the Father's love. I
am the Way, I am the Truth, I am the Life.
Offer a holy hour for the
indifference, ingratitude, and sacrileges committed against
Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the Sacrament of His greatest
love.
R. He promises
great graces to those who give reparation to His Sacred Heart
and who tell others about offering reparation to Him.
end of May 5, 1995
July 4,
2013 Rosary continues
2. R. And so we want
to again, say that we consecrate this place, and all of our homes and
our families to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of
Mary today, and the whole Church and the world, in as far as we are
able, we consecrate them to the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart.
3.
Act of consecration
to the Sacred Heart of Jesus
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!
4.
Act of consecration
to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
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.

The Birth of the Full Ministries
of the Shepherds of Christ
"I wish to share with you part of a message which
Jesus gave us on October 13, 1994. The message tells us about the expansion of
the Shepherds of Christ movement:
'My
beloved priest-companion, today I come to you with another mission. I am
asking you to establish Shepherds of Christ Ministries. At My request you have
already begun the priestly newsletter, "Shepherds of Christ", and
the prayer chapters, Shepherds of Christ Associates...
'I am
giving you this message on this day, the 77th Anniversary of the Great
Apparition at Fatima, because of the close connection between the Shepherds of
Christ movement and the Fatima message. The Fatima message is centered in
devotion to My Heart and My Mother's Heart, especially in consecration to Our
Hearts. Shepherds of Christ Ministries is also centered in devotion to Our
Hearts. I will use Shepherds of Christ Ministries as a great instrument in
helping to bring about the triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the reign of My
Sacred Heart. When this occurs, My Church and the world will be experiencing
the great era of peace promised by My Mother at Fatima.
'Today, then, October 13, 1994, the 77th Anniversary of the Great Apparition
at Fatima, marks the birth of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. I pour forth the
great love of My Sacred Heart to all. I am Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the
flock.'
"Jesus has told us that Shepherds of Christ
Ministries includes: the priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ,
Shepherds of Christ Associates prayer chapters, various publications,
including books, whatever else Our Lord directs us to undertake.
"As members of Shepherds of Christ Associates, you
are an extremely important part of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. You have
given great joy to the Heart of Jesus by responding to His invitation to
become members of Shepherds of Christ Associates. As He draws you closer to
His Heart and to His Mother's Heart as Associates members, He will fill you
with an ever-increasing experience of His love, peace, and joy."

Newsletter of Shepherds of Christ Associates

6. R. So we want to reach the Church,
and the school and the family, and we want to help spread this
consecration all over the world. This is what Mary said at Fatima, that
the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary
will triumph. And so we are looking outward, to see what God has told us
to help to spread this, like this message, that I got 17 years ago
today, that I read before.
Jesus said on July 4, 1996 - "Peace will abound when nations,
churches, families and individuals are consecrated to the Sacred Heart of
Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary."
"Fr. Carter is a pillar of light to the dark world. This is
the explanation of the photo. It is through him, I will turn darkness to
light. Circulate this message with the picture. Encourage all to consecrate
their hearts to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus, to
join the Shepherds of Christ Chapters, and the Apostles of the Eucharistic
Heart of Jesus Movement to pray for your Church and your world. 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
Saturdays. It is through your prayers and sacrifices many souls will be helped
to 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."
As you look at the picture, you see Fr. Carter's arm and hand on
your left. This picture of Fr. Carter was taken July 2, 1996 at the Tuesday
Shepherds of Christ Meeting at Tom Arlinghaus' Farm.

7. R. And so we have
spread like over 17,000,000 Priestly Newsletters, and we have spread all
those prayers to the hierarchy in the 8 languages in hoping, that they
will start the prayer chapters, and so we pray for that. We pray that
the hierarchy will answer this call of Jesus to start these prayer
chapters, praying for the priests, the Church and the world, so that
there will be a network of prayer around the world, dedicated to the
consecration of the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, and supporting our
priests, the Church and the world through these prayers, honoring the
Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart, with the Litanies and the
Promises given to Margaret Mary and the other prayers. We pray for these
God, hear our prayer and help us.
8. Sing: Eye Has Not Seen
9. Excerpts from May 11,
1996 Rosary
Jesus: I
have told you many secrets of My Heart. I ask you to read the messages
in the Blue Book II, for I long for you to come to be with Me in the
Holy Eucharist and before the tabernacle. When you read these love
letters, I will live more in your heart, and you will know the great
grace that I give to you through the Eucharist.
Song: Hail Holy Queen
10. Jesus:
Sweet love of Mine, sweet tender one, I love you with the most intimate
love, but you must give yourself to Me that we can unite in the deepest
love. Love is the gift of self to the other. We cannot join in this deep
love, if you do not give yourself to Me. When you give yourself, our
love will become ever deeper. I am Jesus. I am waiting for you to come,
to be with Me.
Jesus: This
is serious, My beloved ones. Souls that are dead in sin will go to hell.
You must pray with all your hearts for the souls of your brothers.
Song: I have set before you
life or death...choose life.
Jesus: Come
to Me, My beloved ones, and give Me your heart. Consecrate your hearts
to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Let Me live in you and as you move and
as you breathe, I will operate in this world. You are My channels of
this life. I am sending you out into the dark world that this life may
flow through you.
Jesus: You
are My apostles this day that I have called to this room. I am sending
you into the world but you must open wide your heart for the world is
suffering and in pain. It is in darkness but I have called you for I
knew you would answer this call and carry My light into the darkness. I
am Jesus, the Almighty God and I love you with the deepest love. Please,
My dear ones, listen to this urgent cry for the souls are dropping into
hell like rain. It is through your prayers and other acts of your love
of God that you will help in the work of redemption.

Healings
from
The Building of the Two Hearts
1. A gentleman from
Florida called and said since he got the Fatima Statue with glass
his life has been transformed. 3/3/2009
2. After using the Jesus
water, pain and non-movement (for 3 years) in my fingers was healed
instantly. Now fingers are cracking and working and no pain. Has
taken x-rays. 10-19-2008
3. Ruptured ACL Ligament
and PCL ligament left leg (knee) and damaged meniscus. 3-4 weeks
excruciating pain. MRI showed damaged ligaments - went to do surgery
and scopes revealed no damage other than meniscus injury. Day before
surgery we came here to pray for healing. Wife anointed knee with
Jesus water. Were told prior to surgery that would be out of work
3-6 months and surgery would be 4 hours. Surgery was only 40 minutes
and recovery time is 1-2 weeks. 8/13/2008
4. My best friend (a
couple) was granted a son, which now is my godson. They've been
married for a long time but never had a child until they both came
to see the Virgin Mary's image. 8/4/2007
5. I just wanted to tell
you we have had so many prayers answered most especially since we
have had the image statue in our home a few months ago. Prayers
being miraculously answered for our children & grandchildren, our
daughter's heart has literally almost healed ... she is also
pregnant and that is also a miracle that she carried the baby this
far, she is so thankful and also her cardiologist can't figure out
how she is doing so well, and even agreed with her it must be
prayers being said for her. He also told her in her 4th month to
abort the baby, maybe he will have a conversion, we hope. Others in
my family have changed since we got the statue. They are more
understanding and patient and love being a Catholic more than ever
before ...We thank Jesus, Mary, Rita and you all. Praise all of
heaven. We are also so eager to have many more prayers answered. We
are giving our married children a 10 inch statue each for their
homes and red prayer manual if they would also like to say the
prayers if they so choose to. The statue we know will help them with
many graces as they pray before it as it has helped us in our home
and lives. Love you all. 8/3/2007
6. Pregnancy. (A long
note about how a woman got pregnant after she came to the Virgin
Mary Building.) 3/21/2008
7. My mother was
diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in April 2005. She received
the Jesus water of Clearwater that my brother brought to El
Salvador. She was treated at Instituto Salvadoreno del Segino
Social. She was expected to live 3-6 months. She lived well for 2
years. Now she rests in peace with Lord Jesus and Virgin Mary. She
died of Pneumonia March 21, 2007. 4/27/2007
8. The CAT scan showed a
dark spot and they thought they would have to remove my right
kidney. My family went to the Blessed Mother and asked for prayers
and help. They also got the healing water. Well all our prayers were
answered. There was no cancer or tumor. Thanks for all your prayers
and help, and thanks to the Lord above. 4/18/2007
9. Knees were injured
from motorcycle accident July/August 2006. His mom got the water in
Florida right after the accident and took it to him and he used it
every day and now his knees are completely healed. He knows Jesus
water did it. 1/9/2007
10. Suspected blood clot.
Pain in leg with swelling. Jesus water was used and pain went away
and swelling. 12/31/2006
11. Barretrs -- My
husband brought Jesus water to hospital and put on my stomach.
Biopsy came back fine. 12/27/06
12. A man from South
Carolina came to thank Jesus and Mary for his healing. His brother
sent him Jesus' water when he was diagnosed with terminal cancer.
Three doctors told him there was nothing they could do for him. He
started using Jesus' water and started feeling better (He could
hardly walk, he was using a wheelchair a lot). He went back to the
doctor and tests showed no more cancer — gone! The doctor told him
he never saw this happen before. He is around 70 years old and walks
and feels normal. 2006
13. A lady from Egypt
wrote asking St. Mary for a baby for 3 years. She helped me and now
I have a little daughter. Her name is Mariam after St. Mary name by
my language. Thank God and Thank St. Mary. She always remembers me.
- Egypt 10/25/2006
14. This woman filled out
a healing form at the site. I am so blessed by the Blessed Mother
that she has been there for me on more than several occasions. She
performed a miracle on all occasions, one in particular was cancer
of the right leg. The doctors wanted to cut my leg off the cancer
was in the bone. When I returned to New York and went to a plastic
surgeon he saw the cat scan and said my chances weren't good. When
he did the surgery the cancer was not in the bone. It was
superficial. 9/2/2006
15. Stroke. Healed August
2006. 9/2/2006
16. A year ago he went to
Orlando for a test on his prostate. It was positive. He came here in
May and got some Jesus water out of the trough. He went back to the
doctor and he was healed. - Venezuela 8/25/2006
17. Infertility.
Conceived and gave birth exactly 9 months after our first visit to
Clearwater in August 2000. Our son was born exactly 9 months after
our visit (May 20, 2001). I've had surgeries on both ovaries in 1998
and had very little chance of conceiving. Mother Mary gave us our
blessing and wish. 7/21/2006
18. Peter was operated on
for cancer he had for 10 years on his leg and because the wound was
so big, they had to take some skin from another part of his leg to
be able to fix it but it did split. So Monday the doctor said that
another surgery was needed but thanks to Jesus water on Wednesday on
that same week he was healed. - Argentina 7/2/2006
19. Cancer of the lungs.
A friend of ours who we visit from Canada. He told us of his illness
and we came and prayed at the Virgin Mary's appearance on March 28,
2006. He had Jesus' water put on him the night before his surgery.
His surgery was on March 31 and the cancer was gone. Thank you for
your blessings. 4/2/2006
20. Lower back muscle
strain. After straining my back I used the Jesus water before using
pain crème. After putting on the water I no longer needed the crème.
The strain was gone. 3/16/2006
21. Neuropathy. He had
gotten Jesus water a few days ago and went to the doctor yesterday.
3/15/2006
22. Pregnancy. I could
not become pregnant. I came here to ask Mary to extend her hands on
me, to be able to have a child. The miracle happened. I did not know
that other women had become pregnant by asking Mary. My son is 3
years old. I am convinced that he is called to be special in his
life, he has a mission. When she went to see the doctor,
specialists, they said forget it, she couldn't have a baby, and she
went to many different ones. Came here to pray and became pregnant.
All the doctors never understood what had happened. They said he is
a miracle child. 3/8/2006
23. Pregnancy. Became
pregnant of twin girls after we prayed in 2005 and even have a
statue of the Virgin Mary in our yard. After 15 years of concubinage
Virgin Mary finally blessed us. Thanks. Thanks. Thanks. Jesus water
was used to help conceive. 2/2/2006
24. A woman came in today
from New York and said she was here last March (2005) and got the
Jesus water. Her cousin who was very healthy and had just retired at
age 60 suffered a massive stroke. He was taken to the best
neurological hospital in New York and the doctors said he had no
chance of recovery. He had a blood clot at the base of his brain
stem. He was in intensive care and the woman with the other family
members were visiting him and she put Jesus water on him and they
prayed over him, while he was laying in bed in a fetal position
unable to talk was paralyzed. After she had left (only 30 minutes of
visitation in Intensive Care) the woman received a call from her
cousin's wife saying the man had sat up in bed after they left and
was miraculously healed. He is back at home now. The doctors came in
and said this was a miracle. This was 2 months ago. 1/24/2006
25. Dermatomyositis (a
form of Muscular Dystrophy). I was given 6 months to live. I was
really depressed ready to give up when, while being in town for my
girlfriends niece's Christmas Party. I heard it on the news.
(December 17, 1996) Decided why not let's go, when I got here I was
not expecting to see what I saw. I couldn't believe what I saw.
Within an hour I put the cane down, slowly but surely got better
enough where I wasn't paralyzed or dead. Thank you Jesus and Mary.
12/16/2005
26. Small Bowel Syndrome.
Infant acquired surgical intervention at birth. 4 months care at
home. Healed completely as of May 2005. 11/24/2005
27. Newborn very sick - 2
lbs. My mother came to visit me. We used to live in the post
apartments by Target. I brought my Mother to the Virgin Mary
Building in Clearwater and she prayed for my niece, who was in
Guatemala. When my Mother returned to Guatemala she took the picture
of Virgin Mary and put it in my niece's room. When my niece was
born, she needed a tube feeding. She couldn't eat on her own. She
was very thin and very sick. Many people told my sister and my
mother (including the doctors) that my niece was so sick that she
probably would died. Thank to our Lady Virgin Mary, my niece is a
healthy gifted 9 year old girl. - Guatemala - Healing was at 6
months old. 11-22-2005
28. My daughter was told
she had thyroid cancer, after having one side of the thyroid removed
they found the cancer was gone. This had to be due to Mary and Jesus
Water and her belief in the Mother and Son. 9/17/2005
29. Virus. He was in
Egypt. His relatives came to the site and asked for prayers for
healing for him. That same day they were here he was completely
healed of his Liver virus. He is a physician. 8/31/2005
30. After waiting about 8
months for the baby to get bigger for the surgery, the doctor
checked him and couldn't believe it, but she said, "It just fixed
itself." He was 4 months premature and this surgery would have
lowered his sperm count significantly and its already been lowered
by a double inguinal hernia surgery. 6-14-2005
31. Burst tube with
unexpected pregnancy. Was internal bleeding. Doctor told was
miracle, surviving from this kind of operation. She (the mother) had
come to the site and prayed to God if this Image (Our Lady of
Clearwater) was from God to grant her a miracle. Her daughter who
was in Lithuania at the time was in the hospital and the above
miracle happened during the 2 hours the mother was praying at the
site. 5/4/2005
32. Heart failure. He was
not breathing. Jesus water was poured on him while praying. He
started breathing again. 4/23/2005
33. When I was pregnant,
my baby was sick. My baby born was well. Thanks. 4/18/2005
34. Flu. Both sitting in
car, praying rosary both sick of flu. He very sick, not getting
better. Both used the water, felt pain leave body, didn't say
anything, but after few minutes he said "I feel pain is gone." They
drove back to tell us that they were healed. 4/18/2005
35. Asthma. Put Jesus
water on neck. Breathing much better. 4/17/2005
36. Severe back pain.
Have a bad back from laying brick for years and sometimes I bend
over and the pain is severe and it takes at least 3 or 4 or more
weeks for it to go away. I put Jesus water on it and it went away in
2 days. Alleluia. 4/16/2005
37. I must admit that
some days I forget to wash in the water. But I have felt the same
feeling once again a few days ago as I did on March 2nd, the first
time I applied it to my knees. On the movie that you took, I am
walking on the beach without a cane. I don't know if you noticed. I
didn't use the cane yesterday, and I have no pain. I'm still slow at
climbing the stairs, but I'm seeing a tremendous improvement. I'll
keep a journal, and continue updating you I pray a lot, as I'm
applying the medicine. Part of my prayer is "If it be your will."
Thank you. I'll be in touch soon. 3/11/2005
38. My husband had a good
friend and he was diagnosed with cancer and given less than a few
weeks to live. Jesus told me to take him the Jesus water. I never
really met him, but I went to the hospital. He was so sick. He
bounced up and said I knew it - I will be healed. And he lived over
two years longer.
39. Leukemia went into
remission February 7, 2003. Her doctor can't believe how well she is
doing. She has the worse kind of Leukemia there is and she is doing
extremely well. He said this does not happen, so soon, we told him
its because of all the prayers, everyone is saying for her. The day
after we visited the Blessed Mother Building, her blood count was
excellent. Thank you so much. As of 11/3/2004 she is still in
remission and doing very well, a happy 10 year old little girl. We
are all so thankful for all the prayers from everyone, we truly
believe, if we hadn't had our faith and by going to the Virgin Mary
building so often, we wouldn't have been so fortunate to have her.
Prayer is still the most powerful and healing process. Thank you so
much. 11/3/2004
40. Spinal Manangitas.
December 16th, 2002 we almost lost our little grandson. He was taken
flight for life to Madison where they worked on him for hours. They
told us he would either be blind - deaf - brain damage, or he might
not walk. Today he is a happy - healthy little boy full of life.
Thanks to everyone's prayers to our Blessed Virgin and our heavenly
Father, without them we would not have him. Thank you. As of this
date November 3, 2004 our little grandson is doing very well, a
healthy happy little boy, and so full of life, and without any
complications. Our prayers and by going to the Virgin Mary building
truly helped this little boy. Thanks to everyone for all their
prayers. 11/3/2004
41. After my family visited the Virgin Mary
and returned to hospital, I showed no sign of having a
stroke. Doctors at hospital said I would not recover.

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.

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 - 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 |
|
|
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.

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."

Suffering: A Source of Life
-
Fr. Edward
Carter, S.J. read it the
year he died. Fr.
Carter knew suffering that
year. His voice is so
powerful as he read each
Newsletter from his heart
and soul. "Every man has his
own share in the redemption.
Each one is also called to
share in that suffering
through which the redemption
was accomplished. He is
called to share in that
suffering through which all
human suffering has also
been redeemed. In bringing
about the redemption through
suffering, Christ has also
raised human suffering to
the level of the redemption.
Thus each man in his
suffering can also become a
sharer in the redemptive
suffering of Christ–." quote

newsletter $10 |
