Messenger:        My dear people, 

                            Jesus told me to put this message on the internet, 
                                so I went into this message and I saw the blank road 
                                which I really don't remember putting on 
                                without Father Carter. 

                            I looked at the date July 27, 2000, 
                                Jesus told me to put this on. 

                            Father was opened up almost 2 months later 
                                September 22, 2000 and we found out 
                                he had cancer. 

                            I remember Father saying all summer of 2000, 
                                "Jesus is really talking a lot about death."

July 27, 2000
  

Messenger: I went to a funeral.

   

  

Messenger:  As I stood at the grave site and the priest read the prayers, I experienced Jesus standing by the hole into which the coffin would be lowered. He was tall and dressed in white with His brown hair. I felt His presence as He stood next to the priest and I saw the picture of the open tomb from the message a few days ago.

I saw the family which were relatives of my family and I saw like I saw at Emily's grandfather's funeral. A beautiful family, sons and daughters of this man, 94 years old. His grandchildren and great grandchildren were there. His body would be laid in the ground next to his wife's grave.

All through the Mass I saw him healthy and smiling, for he was with us on many holidays, Thanksgivings and Christmases.

It became so clear to me how natural is this process of being born, living and dying, and I felt so close to heaven at the funeral and cried to God to help us in this mission to help save souls. Our mission is so important. Life here on earth is just temporary.

Oh, the seasons pass and one year turns into another and soon that day comes when our bodies are laid to rest in a hole in the earth.

And I heard the priest say, "Because God has chosen to call our brother Harry from this life to himself, we commit his body to its resting place, for we are dust and unto dust we shall return."

And then he said, "For our brother Harry, let us pray to our Lord Jesus Christ who said, 'I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me shall live even in death and whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die.'" 

(Taken from a prayer pamphlet compliments of the Cincinnati Catholic Cemetery Society.)

  

Messenger:  My heart burns for Jesus, I want to live with Him so deep in my heart and for all eternity. I want others to know how close He truly is and that He loves souls so much.

I am grateful to God for our Church, the Mass and the Eucharist in the tabernacle. I am so grateful to God for His grace and for good people that show me love and serve God. I love all souls. He loved them all to His death on the cross.

Please pray with me and help me reach them with His message of love. 

  

  

Messenger:  A seed is planted. If it is watered and cared for, it grows. It has a beginning, it has a prime time of greatest beauty or a time of bearing great fruit, and then it begins to wither and die. It is all in the natural process. 

But He breathed in us a human soul and our souls never die. He gives us a sharing in His divine life in a special way in Baptism. 

He is the first-fruits. Jesus is the first born of the dead.

John stood beneath the cross with Mary.

We partake in that heavenly sacrifice.

Sometimes we may be like Mary Magdalene, and yet we can be changed in our hearts to love Him so passionately. He is the God of fire and light. He is the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

He is worthy of praise and love and thanksgiving.

He controls our breath, our heartbeat.

He calls us each by name. He knew our name as He hung on the cross. He saw us in the garden. The love for us swelled up in His Sacred Heart and He gave Himself for us.

Oh, God, help us to realize more Your love for us and through our lives spread the message of Your love to all souls.

A little mark on the arm one day, a leg that gives in, and then the curtain of life comes down on the troubled soul.

We aren't here on this earth forever. Jesus wept at the death of Lazarus his dear friend. Mary and Jesus weep for the souls that die and condemn themselves to hell.

  

  

Messenger: HE IS SAVIOR.

GOD THE VICTOR

HE ROSE VICTORIOUS.

He has stood at the grave of His friends, while others gazed on in a daze. They didn't yet see the miracle of a seed. When nurtured it grows into a mighty oak, but a tornado can rip it from its roots.

HE CAME TO GIVE US LIFE TO THE FULL.

  

Excerpt from December 7, 1998, Daily Message

Mary speaks: It was a cold blustery day. After two weeks of falling because his knees gave out, Oscar entered the doctor's office and began tests. By the end of the week he found out his body was filled with cancer and he had only a few months to live. He was a big businessman with lots of clients and a busy schedule. He really didn't have a lot of time for the family and love. Much time was spent in making contacts for his business. It took many hours for social connections. He played a lot of golf at the country club. He took long trips, half pleasure, half business, to make the right connections. He had built a very secure castle for his life here below. He was fixed with insurance and financial security. It never dawned on him how temporary everything really was here on the earth. He was in good health, or so he thought. He had his check-ups regularly. He tried to exercise and eat right. He told himself that what counted was his name and his money. He was very concerned with what others thought of him and centered his life on creating an image among men. He wanted to be accepted by men.

My children, I loved Scotty and Oscar, I tried to reach them. Many prayed for Oscar, but few prayed for Scotty. Many souls do not have anyone to pray for them.

A Message from Mary - July 27, 2000

Mary speaks: In the spring of life, many souls found the days of autumn come and in the winter they died a pitiable death.

The day was sunny and bright outside the funeral home, and inside Oscar's family mourned for his passing. 

  

Jesus speaks: THIS IS A MESSAGE FROM JESUS

  

Ezekiel 34: 11-16

"For the Lord Yahweh says this: Look, I myself shall take care of my flock and look after it. As a shepherd looks after his flock when he is with his scattered sheep, so shall I look after my sheep. I shall rescue them from wherever they have been scattered on the day of clouds and darkness. I shall bring them back from the peoples where they are; I shall gather them back from the countries and bring them back to their own land. I shall pasture them on the mountains of Israel, in the ravines and in all the inhabited parts of the country. I shall feed them in good pasturage; the highest mountains of Israel will be their grazing ground. There they will rest in good grazing grounds; they will browse in rich pastures on the mountains of Israel. I myself shall pasture my sheep, I myself shall give them rest -- declares the Lord Yahweh. I shall look for the lost one, bring back the stray, bandage the injured and make the sick strong. I shall watch over the fat and healthy. I shall be true shepherd to them.

  

Jesus speaks: THIS IS MY MOVEMENT, SHEPHERDS OF CHRIST.

I am calling you to help Me.

I AM the Good Shepherd.

 

Psalm 23

Psalm Of David

Yahweh is my shepherd, I lack nothing. 
In grassy meadows he lets me lie. 

By tranquil streams he leads me 
   to restore my spirit. 
He guides me in paths of saving justice 
   as befits his name. 

Even were I to walk in a ravine as dark as death 
I should fear no danger, for you are at my side. 
Your staff and your crook are there to soothe me. 

You prepare a table for me 
   under the eyes of my enemies; 
you anoint my head with oil; 
   my cup brims over. 

Kindness and faithful love pursue me 
   every day of my life. 
I make my home in the house of Yahweh 
   for all time to come.

  

John l0:14

     I am the good shepherd;
     I know my own
     and my own know me,

  

John 6:48-50

    I am the bread of life.
    Your fathers ate manna in the desert and 
    they are dead;
    but this is the bread 
        which comes down from heaven,
    so that a person may eat it and not die.

  

1 Corinthians 15:54-57

A hymn of triumph. Conclusion

And after this perishable nature has put on imperishability and this mortal nature has put on immorality, then will the words of scripture come true: Death is swallowed up in victory. Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin comes from the Law. Thank God, then, for giving us the victory through Jesus Christ our Lord.

  

1 John 1:1-4

The Incarnate Word
and sharing with the Father and the Son

Something which has existed
   since the beginning,
which we have heard,
which we have seen with our own eyes,
which we have watched
and touched with our own hands,
the Word of life-
this is our theme.
That life was made visible;
we saw it and are giving our testimony,
declaring to you the eternal life,
which was present to the Father
and has been revealed to us.
We are declaring to you
what we have seen and heard,
so that you too may share our life.
Our life is shared with the Father
and with his Son Jesus Christ.
We are writing this to you
   so that our joy may be complete.

  

Excerpt from July 21, 2000 daily message

Messenger: In a few days on July 31, it will be the wonderful feast of our beloved St. Ignatius Loyola. The nine day period before begins July 23. Let's all join together and ask St. Ignatius to intercede to God to grant grace that the Jesuits will help us more and more in this mission. That the Jesuits will help us spreading the priestly newsletter and the consecration and rosary to the earth and all that is needed to help spread the devotion to the Sacred Heart as Jesus desires. We will pray in this 9 day period for ourselves and our calling to help bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart. We will pray for the Jesuits, whom we love, through the intercession of St. Ignatius.

I love St. Ignatius so much. Every July 31,  I have received the most wonderful graces on this Feast at Mass that day. I feel really close to St. Francis Xavier, too. I think we should pray through his powerful intercession and that of St. Claude La Columbiere and St. Margaret Mary.

Let's make this nine day novena praying through their powerful intercession.

Pictures taken from the October 20, 2001 Daily Message

December 19, 2000

Written September 24, 2000

Messenger:  I watched by his bed.

A book for those who help cancer patients, for their relatives and friends who need to cope with the suffering of losing a loved one. 

It was a quiet day or so it seemed, the long months of watching John go "down hill" had come to an end.

I did not know that the end was indeed so near, but the story had been written in the days that went before, but I really never read the message given in the days that led up to that final page.

There were months of warnings, but I just lived every day coping with that day’s events and when the final page was about to be written, I felt shocked, empty and afraid.

The days before were all telling the story, but like anyone in love with a family member, who wants to think that days of parting might be so soon? Oh, but they were so soon. As I look back now, I see I just didn’t recognize them.

Every person can only do so much, but out of love those we love deeply and love us, sometimes, cover up their real conditions in an attempt to live life as usual.

Cancer is a mighty menace. It attacks the weak and the strong. It acts like an aggressive machine growing and growing inside someone’s body and they may not notice the gradual sucking of their life from the other parts of the body until it almost leaves them dead.

I was a little girl of five years old when the deadly disease ate away the cells in my mother’s body as it took over her body and she soon died.

But I am not here to make you feel sorry for me or to tell you about anything new, but to write of the dying and rising of my dear friend, Fr. Carter.

The signs were there, for in January he became very sick and even though he wanted to go to the Virgin Mary building to say a private Mass there, he could not go and the once held plane reservations were cancelled.

He remained sick and on February 5, 2000, when we opened the Rosary Factory in Clearwater, Florida at Mary’s Image site, he did attend, but he didn’t feel good and he continued trying really hard to serve us as a ministry.

Now, I don’t know, in September after they opened him up and told us what they did, how he ever did all he did, being so sick. It was September 22, 2000, when they operated on him and it was January 22, 2000, when we were supposed to go to Clearwater, Florida, exactly eight months later.

Father Carter continued to keep a hectic schedule.

Jesus told him to write the lengthy spirituality newsletter in which he summed up a great deal about the spiritual life. We could all study it for our entire life.

As I write this, I don’t know if he will ever tape record this 20 page newsletter or the next newsletter.

I do know this, the signs were there and Father worked really hard to continue doing all he did despite his sickness, weakness. His faith in the Movement never wavered. He had a burning desire to serve Jesus and help renew the priesthood, the Church and the world.

Father worked and worked because he loved us all so much and loved the world and he didn’t complain, ever.

His faith in this Movement and the messages of Jesus is shown in his life given to this.

Father showed us the message of Jesus in his life. He lived in such union with Him. He offered Mass every day praying so fervently for souls and for all of us.

I see the signs especially on the trips. Mary was adorned in gold on the building July 5, 2000, during the evening prayer service.

 

September 24, 2000 message continues

Messenger: Father was in the motel and he didn’t feel good.

After the Mass he had to sit and he didn’t think he would make it during the Mass because he was weak.

I watched a lot of Masses that way, between his blood sugar levels and he seemed to just sigh sometimes to do ordinary motions, but he kept serving God and loving us all.

I watched him look up to the Father and say, “through him, with him and in him”.

 

Through Him, with Him and in Him

September 24, 2000 message continues

Messenger: He lived for the Mass. He offered it for the Movement and for all of us, the whole Church and the world, to help bring about the Reign of Jesus’ Sacred Heart.

I can show you the picture taken on my birthday, August 8, 2000, he looked really bad and I worried about him so much I cried as I spoke to him, but in his calm, peaceful attitude, he assured me everything was okay as God wanted it and he was getting proper care.

 

September 24, 2000 message continues

Messenger: Every day he looked weaker and he coughed whenever he talked and we all prayed more.

He was determined to say Mass in China on the Feast of Mary’s birthday, September 8, 2000, and he paid a big price for it.

For about 4 months he struggled with the cough and he walked slower and slower and he looked sicker every day, but he knew what God was telling him and about his mission.

December 19, 2000 - Second Message

Messenger: Our Lord said that we have prayed so fervently for the healing of Fr. Carter's cancer, now we can pray for the souls of the earth in need of healing.

We can still pray for Father Carter, but with all the fervor we prayed for his healing, we must pray for healing for the souls of the earth. 

A Healing Rosary for the souls of the earth. 

Today is healing day we pray especially at 6:20 p.m. for healing.

  

         

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

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

A Rosary for Healing or for Someone with Cancer.

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

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

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

May the cancer be uprooted and thrown into the sea.

We believe with all our hearts.

After the Glory Be— pray the following petition.

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

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

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

  

December 19, 2000 - Third Message

Messenger: The thing that helped me the most is at 3:00 a.m.

I had a light and I heard Our Lord speak. He said: 

Would you wish to deprive Me of giving a holy soul their reward?

Messenger: I saw Father Carter in heaven and I saw the drudgery of the earth here below, then I could see how "dumb" it was to want him here when he could be in heaven with God enjoying his eternal reward.

I kept saying all day what happened December 18, and then I remembered the message I wrote five years ago on December 18, about being embraced by God. The writing appears here from the Mass Book.

  

December 18, 1995

IN THE DEEPEST RECESSES OF HIS HEART

The place Jesus took me was into the deepest recesses of His Heart. I was enveloped in His burning love. It was a red room with heat and an intense glow. I was swept away in this embrace, and I only existed in Him. The power of the Almighty God enveloped me, and I only existed in Him. There was no fear, for I was existent in this Almighty Being. My heart was wrapped in the eternal embrace of this Supreme Being. The security, the power I know was His deep presence in which I existed.

I knew the room was red and warm. I knew His immenseness, but I felt my own completeness in Him. I did not feel little, as a speck, but elevated and empowered for I existed then in Him in a most special way.

I was overtaken by the love of God. The fire of the Holy Spirit filled me. I was absorbed by the love of the Father, and I existed IN Him and in the deepest recesses of the Heart of Jesus. Our heaven on earth is these inner chambers of His magnificent Heart - the Heart of the Almighty God, with all the power, with omnipotence, with the fire of the love of God. He took me to the deepest chamber of this fiery Heart, and in that moment, I touched eternity, for I knew what it was to be enveloped in the deep furnace of His love. I now want to exist in this chamber of His Heart, swept away in His burning love, absorbed in my every cell with His love.

We do not understand the fire of His love. We do not understand what it is to be absorbed by love itself. He took me to the inner, deepest chamber of His Heart, and I felt the heat and knew the presence of love itself, and there was no fear, only a feeling of completeness, omnipotence, all-embracing, penetrating love - a power indescribable in words, a saturation of my being in the presence of God, and I was as I was created to be - living in Him!

This is how I will forever live my life, saturated with His divine life and love deep within this inner chamber of His burning Heart, living in Him as He possesses my being, and I operate with His power in me.

Little creatures though we are, we are His, His power, His life, flowing through us. In Him, we are as the Father intended: one in Him, each one of us, dwelling in this fiery furnace of His love. With our fears quieted and our hearts empowered by His life, we live forever in Him - in the Heart of Jesus.

Let no man separate what God has joined together. I am wed in the deepest love with my beloved Spouse, wed to the Heart of Jesus. As I am, I am one in Him. I live and I breathe in Him. He, Who is love, He Who is our all, He Who is mighty and without limits, He Who is, He Who is God and as I live, He lives in me in this world.

I am wed to Him, and I shall not fear for He is God - one, complete, loving, God. Heart of Jesus, I place my trust in Thee. As I live, I live in Your most adorable Heart, the furnace of God's love!

(End of December 18, 1995 message)

  

Messenger: Jesus wants us to pray for another special priest helping us.

Now the Movement can soar for our founder is on the other side and we can pray united to him.

He loves us so much. He can be united to all our prayers.

Things work toward good if we love and serve Him.

This death should make us feel so close to the other side. It should help us think more of praying through the intercession of the saints.

St. Ignatius, St. Claude de la Colombiere, help us, St. Xavier help us, and all the popes in heaven, help us. Help us reach the pope and the churches with the priestly newsletter and the writings of Fr. Carter. Please help so churches begin prayer chapters. Please pray for those at the Colombiere Center. They pray for the renewal of the Church and the renewal of the Jesuits. They promote the Morning Offering.

The last hug – we never know when it may be the last hug.

  

June 10, 1999 – 37th anniversary of when Father Carter became a priest.

  

December 19, 2000 - Fourth Message

Messenger: Father's layout is Friday, December 22, 2000, 4 - 7:15 p.m. at St. Xavier Church, downtown Cincinnati, Ohio.

The funeral Mass is at 7:30 p.m. at St. Xavier Church Friday evening (December 22, 2000).

The burial is on Saturday morning at 10:00 a.m. at Milford Old Novitiate.

Messenger: Father's funeral is exactly 3 months from when we found out he had cancer, September 22, 2000.

Here is a message from December 22, 1994.

  

December 22, 1994

See the Big Picture

Jesus speaks: To all My dearest beloved ones at the Center and in the Shepherds of Christ:

You do not see the big picture. You do not see how your job is so important to My plan. Do you see your confusion? The devil presses in . He tells you how everything is hard and you are working so hard and not seeing any results. He tells you that you have not done enough. Oh, little loved ones, you are involved in the renewal of My Church. You see with such limited vision! I am using Shepherds of Christ to renew My Church throughout this world. I am lighting My world with the love that is being radiated in the many hearts that are coming to the Center and the Farm. You see, minute-by-minute, day-by-day, your frustrations and problems.

I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I write these intense love letters of My love for this world. You see only your little daily frustrations. You are so important to spreading My love! I am giving you messages for all My beloved souls of this world. My (Shepherds of Christ priestly) Newsletter will enkindle in priests the fire of My love. I will light this world with My light through you.

Oh, little loved ones, see the big picture. Pray for grace to know and love Me more. It is by your love of God that you will carry out My plan with ease.

You see little details. I call you to prayer. I call you to sacrifice. I call you to love and purity in your heart. I call you to union with Jesus and Mary. I call you to consecration of your heart to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. I call you to live in the Spirit, to pray to the Spirit, to be alive with His fire, to be transformed into My great soldiers of love, so that your hearts will be on fire with the most burning love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

I call you to vision. I call you to doing the will of My Father, to saying "yes" as Mary said "yes" to the angel, total compliance with His will!

I call you to time spent alone with Me in front of the tabernacle and after Communion.

Oh, My beloved children, you are blind. You do not see that this is My world. The reality is that your every breath depends on Me. I am here. I am in your midst this day, no less present than the day Mary carried Me in her womb, no less present than the day I died on the cross. Open your eyes and see the love I am pouring out to you.

This (Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center) is My Mother's house. I write these letters to you from her house in Norwood. I am alone many times in My tabernacle here. You cannot light this world on your own. You need to pray for the grace to grow in love of Me.

I write these letters of My intense love to My precious souls. I want these letters to circulate. The lives of Myself and My Mother will become more and more alive to you as you read these letters. Pray the rosary with these meditations. I am begging you to listen to Me.

I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I have written five books of My intense love. I have given you such insights into My suffering and My Mother's suffering. It is through the rosary and these letters that the love of God will grow more and more in men's hearts. I beg you to take Me seriously. I love, I love, I love. I write songs of My love. I want these songs recorded.

I am an open furnace of endless love, on fire for My beloved souls. I write, I write, I write of this love. You do not take Me seriously!

Your city will shine with the love of Jesus in the hearts of those who go to the Center when you promote these letters. To hold these letters back from My beloved souls wounds My Heart. I wait. I long. I thirst for the love of My beloved souls. I write five books of love letters. I beg you, all of you involved in circulating and publishing these letters, to do so. Your churches will radiate with My love when you circulate these letters.

My Heart is on fire for love of you. I beg you this day to listen to Me. I am Jesus. I write of My ardent love for you and I am taken so lightly! Please circulate and read these messages! Please support these letters! What more must I do to tell you? What more do you want? I write five books of My love. I teach you the rosary to help Our lives live in you. The rosary is so important to the hearts of those who go to the Center and the members of Shepherds of Christ. The rosary and its mysteries must live in the lives of those who pray them. My renewal will come from the two Hearts. Listen to Me. Please circulate these letters and rosary meditations. They will lead many hearts to My love and the love of Mary.
