A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb
the Bridegroom of the soul

    Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.

August 18, 2003

Messenger:        My dear Jesus,

                                    Today is the day to spread the Good News.

                                    Help us not to give into temptation.

                                    Help us to do God's will.

                                    Help us to live for this.    

                                    Help us to receive grace to make us holy.    

 

                            On August 19, 1917 Mary appeared at Fatima instead

                                    of August 13, 1917 because they jailed the

                                    children.

  

Excerpt from The Spirituality of Fatima

Because of the excitement caused by the apparitions, the civil authorities were so alarmed that they kidnapped the three young visionaries and put them in jail. The incarceration period included the day of August 13. Consequently, Our Lady did not appear to the children on this particular 13th.

The authorities, fearing reaction on the part of the people, quickly released the children. Mary appeared to them on August 19 near Valinhos:

She told them she was greatly displeased by the action of the mayor. As a result, the miracle promised for October would not be as impressive as originally planned. 15

15. For background material on Fatima, I am particularly indebted to Our Lady of Fatima’s Peace Plan from Heaven (Rockford: TAN Books and Publishers, Inc., 1983).

    

August 18, 2003 message continues

Messenger:        I feel so close to Mary in August because so much

                                    happened to me in August over the years,

                                    especially August 1994 when she appeared

                                    so much and spoke to me and I was given

                                    a great sharing into her heart and August 1996.
  

                            I know Mary is very close to us especially in August.

                                    As the children get ready to go to school, we

                                    always focused in August on the school

                                    rosary program, but so many other

                                    things have made it so we can't do all

                                    Our Lady wishes with our rosary factory.

                                    The Rosary Factory closed September 11, 2002.
  

                               Mary thanks all those in Indiana who

                                    buy the beads and keep the rosary factory

                                    moving from there.
  

                                        I remember this message

    

Mary's Message
from the Rosary of August 27, 1996

Mary speaks:  I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light.

                                    Jesus and Mary) in 1996 after February

                                    and then in August 1996 she began

Excerpt from August 13, 1996 Rosary

The Visitation

Mary speaks:  My dear children, on the 13th of this month I come to you to deliver this message. I have not given to you this message before. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to come to my spiritual womb, to take refuge from the terrors of the night. In my womb, I will hold you close to me and protect you from all the terrors in your life. Do not give in to Satan. Satan is a roaring lion, prowling this earth, attempting to catch you in his snare. You must not surrender. You must give your heart to me and to the Heart of my Son. Please, my little children, come to me and I will care for you. I am your Mother. I am caring for you with the greatest motherly love. You do not know how I want to mother you and to love you. You are as little children, afraid and wounded. I will heal your wounds. I will comfort you in your fear. I am the Mother of greatest love and I love you, my little children. I will take you to the Heart of my Son, Jesus. This is a special message that I deliver for you this evening. May you hold this message in your heart, and may you come to my heart at every moment and find refuge from the terrors of the night.

Messenger:        Mary appeared all night August 12, 1996 and then

                                    lots of hours the morning of the 13th of

                                    August 1996 and right before I went

                                    to Tom's Farm at 6:30 for the prayer

                                    service.
 

                            Mary did deliver a message we never

                                    heard or saw before when she

                                    appeared on the building.
  

Mary speaks:          My Son Jesus wants the Shepherds of Christ to own the

                            Building of the Two Hearts. The devil does

                            not want this. Pray for this daily and

                            for everything to do with Our Two Hearts

                            Building.
  

                                I am a Mother of Love and I appear

                            and My Son Jesus appears to deliver this

Messenger:       For a donation we could print this volume -

                                    Blue Book IV all the messages that Fr Carter discerned.

                            We need funds. The insurance on the building

                                    costs us about $2,300 - $2,400 a month now -

                                    please pray for us, this is beside the

                                    $10,000 building payment every month and all the

                                    bills to keep it operating.
  

Mary speaks:      My children,

                                   God has given you His Movement 

                            Shepherds of Christ at the end of the century

                            to help to bring to completion the mission

                            I began at Fatima. My children, the Father

                            wishes Shepherds of Christ to own the building and for this

                            message to reach the far ends of the earth and this mission to flourish.

                                     My children, this is a gift God has given

                            you. There is no building in the world like

                            this.

Mary speaks:      All the building is used now for this purpose

                                    to deliver this message and reach the

                                    priests, there is a vestment Factory and

                                    materials for priests and for Mass.
 

                            My children please listen to my Son —

                            Your world is based on a sinking ship

                                    remember the Titanic —

                            You are so blind and self-centered —

                            Never before in the History of the world

                                    has such a permanent sign like this

                                    been given.

        I have appeared in rainbow array for

                all these 5ths as the golden Madonna

                who comes robed in gold to help

                the fallen human race.

We pray all prayers for the priests and the renewal of the Church and the world and for the Shepherds of Christ intentions. By the precious Body and Blood of Jesus we cast out Satan far from this place, our families, the Shepherds of Christ Movement, Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, the Church and the world. We ask the Blood of Jesus be spread on us, the Shepherds of Christ Movement, Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center, the Church and the world.
