Messenger: Let us
contemplate the mystery of Mary, Immaculately
Conceived without sin.
The world is full of imperfect creatures —
created to be more in the image and likeness of God.
...You must therefore be perfect, just as your
heavenly Father is perfect.'
Matthew 5: 48
Messenger: The struggle that we have in living in oneness — to
be as Jesus spoke of in John 17 —
before He went to undergo His bitter passion —
His prayer to the Father that we are to be one.
Jesus came that we would be one —
God gives to us the gift of His Precious Body
and Blood —
We want to become more and more one in Him.
The devil is division.
It is because of our imperfections that we cannot
unite in this oneness as Jesus wants us to be.
The Trinity is one —
the most perfect community —
One God — 3 Persons —
God is Perfect.
We are imperfect — we cannot unite in perfect oneness
because of our imperfections.
The purity of Mary must be pondered in our hearts.
the desire of God that we live modeling our
lives after our spiritual Mother —
Mary Immaculate, conceived without sin.
Man in his imperfections can grow in greater
perfection in his modeling of himself
after Jesus and Mary, but how can we
model ourselves after Jesus and Mary if
we do not ponder the mysteries of
Their lives.
Mary said at Fatima October 13, 1917 —
Excerpt from the Spirituality of Fatima
by Father Edward Carter, S.J.
October 13, 1917
In her message that day, Our Blessed Mother told the children:
I am the Lady of the Rosary. I have come to warn the faithful to amend their lives and to ask pardon for their sins. They must not offend Our Lord any more, for He is already too grievously offended by the sins of men. People must say the Rosary. Let them continue saying it every day.(17)

Books and Publishers, Inc., 1983). p.7.

Messenger: We must pray the rosary.
In our school rosary program we give to
the children the single line "Rosary Aves"
centered on these profound mysteries of the
lives of Jesus and Mary. We give to them
the consecration cards — in which youth
can give their lives more deeply to Jesus
and Mary.
The Two Hearts of pure and holy love.
What the soul seeks is this oneness with
God.
We have a life-time to try to grow in greater
perfection and grow more and more in that
image and likeness of Jesus.
We are the children of God —
the children of Mary —
Our lives move on in petty pace —
day following day —
week following week —
month following month.
Mary is model — is mother — is sinless —
is all pure — is the New Eve.
Mary was permitted to appear for over 7 years
to lead the souls to this deep love
union with Jesus.
Jesus is the Sacred Heart, consumed with
love for His precious souls — Jesus —
the Divine God, who went to His death
for love of His precious souls.
In realizing more fully the role of Mary,
as spiritual mother in our lives and
spiritual Mother in the Church we will
grow in greater oneness with God —
we will grow in greater purity.
In not recognizing Mary in her role as
spiritual Mother — if we do not unite
our heart to her Immaculate Heart
how much harder it is for the poor
banished children of Eve to attain
that purity that God desires of us.
Mary is the singular vessel —
She is the one conceived without sin —
God has entrusted the peace of the world
to Mary —
To ignore Mary — is to suffer for she
is our spiritual Mother.
The role of Mary —
Mary is the Mother of the Priests —
Mary is the Mother of Jesus —
in contemplating the relationship Jesus
had with His Mother — we can realize
how very important her role is in
our life —
How much was Mary in the life of Jesus?
How much in the rosary we meditate on the mystery of
Jesus and the mystery of Mary, her
sinlessness.
Mary Mother of the Priest.
If Christ shows us in His life — how
important Mary was —
How can we not see how very important
Mary is in the life of the Priest —
Jesus shows us how close He was to Mary —
A priest who is so important to us —
should model this importance of
Mary's relationship in their lives.
People need to be taught about Mary as
spiritual Mother.
The incarnation goes on in us.
The Holy Spirit working in the Immaculate
Heart of Mary forms us more and more
in that image and likeness of Jesus.
Mary speaks: I am Mother of the Universe.
Mary Immaculate —
Mary conceived without sin.
Messenger:
Mary, Mother of the Church —
What does this mean?
Jesus told Jacinta at Fatima that He
wanted His Heart venerated next
to Mary's Immaculate Heart.
Mary told Jacinta at Fatima
— that fashions
would offend Our Lord
PURITY MARY QUEEN
SINLESS
MOTHER OF GOD
Today there are so many fashions that are
not helping people to be pure.
Is it that we have not focused on Mary
our Mother, all pure and sinless, that
we are impure today in many things.
God gave us this most pure sinless
human person, conceived without sin,
"the SINGULAR VESSEL"
"Mother of Divine Grace"
"FULL OF GRACE"
What does that mean?
We say this 53 times in every rosary —
HAIL MARY — FULL OF GRACE
I long for the infinite God, to be wrapped
in His heavenly embrace — to know
oneness beyond all
measure — to be saturated by
Him —
Heaven — to be possessed by God —
The unity of heaven — meditate on this
— to be embraced by God
Meditate on the glories of heaven and then
think of total isolation and pain and
the torment of hell.
Heaven is real —
So very real that Jesus, the Son of God, came
to this earth, took on a human nature and
gave Himself to His death on the cross.
Ponder this deeply —
God died for me!!
In all the corners of the earth, souls
cry out for this message of love and
yet so many of us hold back —
we call ourselves soldiers in
the army of Christ — Christians —
commissioned in baptism and yet
many of us stand as with plugged
cheeks — hiding the Good News we are
commissioned to spread —
If we gave more honor and recognition to Mary
all pure would there be such impurity
in the world today.
We search for answers and cover our eyes to
the message God delivers.
On 19th and Drew Street Clearwater, Florida Mary appeared
7 years to deliver this message of the Good
News.
The News went on but not news of Mary
and the apparition.
How many souls of the youth were indoctrinated
by the poison of the T.V., the media
and yet the image of Mary that may
have helped them was "NOT" supported.
How about the eyes of children that see
the news on their T.V. sets, "gay
marriages", abortion, but were not
shown the beautiful image of
Mary, their spiritual Mother and
told how heaven had sent her on
a busy corner of Clearwater.
Mary said if we did not heed her warning
at Fatima, there would be
another war.
Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima
July 13, 1917
"During this same July apparition, Mary showed the three children a vision of Hell. She told them:
"You have seen Hell, where the souls of poor sinners go. To save them, God wishes to establish, in the world, devotion to my Immaculate Heart. If people do what I tell you, many souls will be saved and there will be peace.
"The war (World War I, then raging) is going to end. But if people do not stop offending God, another and worse one will begin in the reign of Pius XI. When you shall see a night illuminated by an unknown light [January 2, 1938], know that this is the great sign that God gives you that He is going to punish the world for its many crimes by means of war, hunger, and persecution of the Church and the Holy Father. (12)
"To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart and the Communion of Reparation on the five first Saturdays. If my requests are granted, Russia will be converted and there will be peace. If not, she will scatter her errors throughout the world, provoking wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred, the Holy Father will have much to suffer, and various nations will be destroyed....
"But in the end, my Immaculate Heart will triumph, the Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, Russia will be converted, and a certain period of peace will be granted to the world." (13)

Messenger: Reality —
Mary appeared to me every day for
14 months and when I watched a movie
on Fatima with host Ricardo Montalban
I could hardly stand it because I saw
the bodies thrown on the heaps
after they were killed in World War II.
God comes and warns us.
Mary appears for over 7 years.
We cry in pain.
The impurity becomes more impure.
The focus more on physical life than
spiritual life and
Yet people die as they always did.
Excerpt from Through the Years with Fulton Sheen
31 Mary and John
We have the new Adam and the new Eve. Our Lord on the cross is the new Adam, the Blessed Mother at the foot of the cross is the new Eve. And we're going to have the consummation of a marriage, and out of the consummated marriage of the new Adam and the new Eve is going to begin the new church of which John will be the symbol. And so the new Adam looking down now to the woman, says: "Woman, your son." And to the son, he did not say "John" (he would have then been only the son of Zebedee), but "Son, your mother." Here is the begetting of a new life. The Blessed Mother becomes the symbol of the church. And as Eve was the mother of the living, so Mary becomes the mother of the new living in the order of grace. 1
20 Nuptials on the crossFrom the cross our Lord looks down to his Blessed Mother and St. John, and he develops this new relationship in the kingdom of heaven. Now we've always thought, and rightly so, of Christ the Son on the cross and the mother beneath him. But that's not the complete picture. That's not the deep understanding. Who is our Lord on the cross? He's the new Adam. Where's the new Eve? At the foot of the cross. ...How did the old humanity begin? With the nuptials. How will the new humanity begin? With the nuptials. If Eve became the mother of the living in the natural order, is not this woman at the foot of the cross to become another mother? And so the bridegroom looks down at the bride. He looks at his beloved. Christ looks at his church. There is here the birth of the church. As St. Augustine puts it, and here I am quoting him verbatim, "The heavenly bridegroom left the heavenly chambers, with the presage of the nuptials before him. He came to the marriage bed of the cross, a bed not of pleasure, but of pain, united himself with the woman, and consummated the union forever. As it were, the blood and water that came from the side of Christ was the spiritual seminal fluid. And so from this nuptials "Woman, there's your son": the beginning of the church. 2
21 Man and woman in the church
Our Blessed Lord said the word is the seed, the seed is the word. Man gives the seed. The woman receives the seed, fosters it, nourishes it, gives birth to it, loves it, trains it. There's no such thing as inferiority and superiority. Instead of being a question of inferiority and superiority, it is only a question of the different roles that we play -- the man is the symbol of Christ, and the woman is the symbol of the church. Many people no longer have an understanding of the church as the body of Christ. Jesus loves his body. ...The Blessed Mother beneath the cross is the symbol of the church, and John is the first born. 3
30 Our virgin birth
I cannot see why a Christian should be in the least bit troubled about the virgin birth, because there's a virgin birth in us all. Everyone who becomes a Christian has Christ in him. Christ is born... in everyone by baptism. There is first of all the renewal crisis in the intellect so that, as Paul says, we "put on the mind of Christ." He is in the will, as grace and power. And he is in our body, because our body becomes the temple of God. The convert (it's easy to understand in a convert because one can always distinguish the before and after state) can often say: "Oh, yes, at this precise date I heard the word of God. And the word was born in me so that I have his truth and his grace, and he's living inside of my body." There is conception by perception, conception by the hearing of the word of God. 4

Hail Mary
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, Jesus. * Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Jesus speaks: I am your Savior.
I love you so very much.
You were created to give honor and glory to
God.
You were given the 10 Commandments
to follow.
On December 17, 1996 your Mother Mary was
sent by the Father to appear on
the building in Clearwater, Florida.
July 7, 2004 message continues
Jesus speaks: So many today offend Me, they offend
God the Father —
You are a sinful race offending God.
I have sent these messages that you would
hear God speak to you and turn from
your ways, but you have ignored Me —
you have worshipped the molten calf —
you have feasted on the pleasures of the world,
your children are suffering.
Many wonder like lost sheep, daily, on the
surface of this earth.
So many people today do not want to obey God.
Mary was sent as a messenger from God to tell
you — you are sinning — you must obey
the 10 commandments —
willfulness against the Father displeases
God.
Oh My people I appear to you today —

July 7, 2004 message continues
Jesus speaks: When
God the Father sent Mary as a messenger
you shot off her face —
you poured acid on her face —
Does this not show you why Mary appeared
at Fatima and Mary asked for reparation
on the 5 first Saturdays — it was 5 because
of the 5 Blasphemies against her, your
Mother.
Excerpt from the Mass Book
1. Blasphemies against the Immaculate Conception.
2. Blasphemies against Her Perpetual Virginity.
3. Blasphemies against Her Divine Maternity, in refusing at the same time to recognize Her as the Mother of men.
4. The blasphemies of those who publicly seek to sow in the hearts of children indifference or scorn, or even hatred of this Immaculate Mother.
5. The offenses of those who outrage Her directly in Her holy images.46
46. Frere Michael de la Trinité, The Whole Truth About Fatima, Vol. II, Appendix III.
July 7, 2004 message continues
Jesus speaks:
There is so much willfulness.
I operate in structure.
Priests are under Bishops —
Bishops under the hierarchy of the Church —
I am the head of the Church —
Today many ignore the head —
Children are taught to disobey and disrespect
parents by the ways of the world —
commercials show little children
over the parents — the parents are
shown some times as not as smart
as the children
When Mary is disrespected and not looked on
as important —not recognized as
your spiritual Mother — there is
a decline of purity —
I am greatly offended by the clothes of
the youth — at the airports — adults
60 years old displaying their breasts
and belly buttons, backs, very
much skin —
Adults trying to dress as children —
Look to the clothes of Mary, Mother, Model
of the Church —
Look to how woman is shown in most
magazines —
breast revealed —
backs out
belly button showing —
Mary is your model —
Mary nursed Me at her breast —
What of the recognition of Mary and the
vision in Clearwater —
For seven years, little recognition was
given to Mary your Mother that
appeared on a busy corner
in Clearwater — very little
spots on the T.V.
While hours and hours of illicit sexual behavior
of leaders aired the summer of 2001
and attacks about tires — there was not
minutes to recognize My Mother who
appeared day and night in rainbow
color.

Jesus speaks: Here
is a message I gave 5 days before September
11th.
Excerpt from September 6, 2001
Jesus speaks: You must pray for your donors.
I appeared and my mother appeared
for the whole world.
The apparition is not appreciated.
The fact you cannot even make
the rent payment for the
building is proof.
So much money in the world and the
state of Florida.
Look at your news on television.
Look at what the news is on the
television.
MARY HAS APPEARED ON THE
BUILDING FOR 5 YEARS AND
YOU DO NOT EVEN TAKE
NOTICE.
It is not the responsibility of 100
people to support such a vision.
It is a gift from God.
This shows you the focus of men
and your news.
Your eyes are blind.
I ask today September 6, 2001 to
see Our images and to help
do what We have asked you to do.
These messages are important.
You have ignored Me.
THE PRAYER CARDS, Prayer for Union
with Jesus, Prayer Before the Holy
Sacrifice of the Mass, Say daily card,
morning offering, Shepherds of Christ
Prayer manuals, Holy Spirit Novena book,
rosary meditations are gifts from God.
Messenger: Jesus also said "All materials
used for the school rosary program
printed by B&M have helped the
school children."
Jesus speaks: The Priestly Newsletter is a gift from God.
Because of these prayers your world
is a better place.
If B&M closes and the printing stops -
your world will be affected.
Again I repeat, these revelations and
materials are for the world.
Mary appears the Lady clothed in gold
for the world.
Very, very few are helping to do what I ask.
My movement is to help the priests, the
Church and the world, it is a gift.
Because of My movement, the world is a
better place.
You will feel the effects if the printing stops.
I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus, I speak here.

book — you did not pay heed —
Mary continued to appear on the 5ths
for 2 1/2 years until I appeared
December 5, 1996 — 12 days before Mary's
appearance at Clearwater —
Excerpt from April 4, 2003
Messenger: I saw Him at the point of death on the cross December 5, 1996, after Mary appeared 500 times.
He hung, all battered, greatly weakened. His mouth moved very clearly. It seems that a man in His condition could not move His mouth to that extent.
Later in the rosary that night, He gave messages and said: "No one was listening."
Excerpt from Rosary on December 5, 1996: Jesus speaks:
I am alive, I am alive. I am alive. My beloved ones, I show you My face. Do you see the body of a man? Do you see Me alive on the cross? I am speaking to you but the world does not hear. They do not hear the message that I deliver to them. You must pray fervently. You must come to Me that I can be one in you and that I can operate through you as you go into the world this day. I love you. I love you with the most tender love. I am Jesus. I am alive. You are My main soldiers that I will send into the world to lead the strayed ones to My Heart.The days ahead will be dark days. You must come to My Heart and take shelter in My Heart. It is there that you will be rooted on a firm rock. For My Heart is your home. You will not know the terrors of the night if you stay rooted in My Heart.
Division is blackness in the heart. You must not be divided, divided from anyone. You must remain in union with all men. You must see yourselves as part of the Father's family. Each one of you is so important to the Father's plan.

Reparation must be made to God

knees telling God they are sorry
for this terrible crime done to Mary's
image.
I appear in Clearwater, Florida and
there is little publicity for this —
very few come to this chosen spot
given to the earth where Mary
appeared for 7 years daily.
Make reparation to God the Father for how
you treated this great gift given
from heaven.

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.
This is indeed a special calling for us to unite in one heart with His Eucharistic Heart and pray for the following intentions:
- 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.
- For the Pope.
- For all bishops of the world.
- For all priests.
- For all sisters and brothers in the religious life.
- For all members of the Shepherds of Christ Movement, and for the spread of this movement to the world.
- For all members of the Catholic Church.
- For all members of the human family.
- For all souls in purgatory.
