Holy Name of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Luke 1: 46-55

And Mary said:

My soul proclaims
    the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
    in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
    the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
    all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
    has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
    to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
    from their thrones
        and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
    sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
    of Israel his servant,
        mindful of his faithful love
—according to the promise
    he made to our ancestors—
of his mercy to Abraham
    and to his descendants for ever.

The Mass

The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary –
sacramentally made present.
As members of the mystical body
of Christ, we are united to all
the Masses going on around the
world this day. Our lives are an
offering to the Father, in union
with Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice
he Mass, in the Holy Spirit,
through the intercession of
our Heavenly Mother –
with all the angels and saints
and the souls in purgatory.
We are one united to the Mass.
Tremendous grace can be
outpoured on the earth from
doing this, living in the Father’s
will in love – united to the
Mass, the sacrifice of Calvary –
sacramentally made present.
God enlists our help today –

Oh the gift of the Mass –
Oh the gift of the priest –

Jesus is truly present in His Divinity
and humanity in the Eucharist –

He says:
“This is My Body,
This is My Blood,
given up for you.”

Morning Offering

My dear Father, I offer You this day all my prayers, works, joys and sufferings, my every breath, my every heartbeat, my every thought, all my actions, in union with Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world, in the Holy Spirit. I pray the Holy Spirit is with me every second today, enlightening me to do the Will of the Father and filling me with the fire of God's love.

I ask Jesus and Mary to be one in me in all that I do and I unite with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory to pray continually to the Father for these intercessions, in this prayer, for this day.

For myself, I pray for grace-abundant grace, to know and love God more and more and to follow the Will of the Father. I pray to the Holy Spirit to transform me in the heart of Mary to be more and more like Jesus. I pray that I can forever dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. I pray for conversion of all those I hold dear who need conversion. I pray for each member of my family that they will be filled with Your abundant grace to grow in their knowledge and love of God.

I pray for all my friends that they will receive abundant grace to carry out the great plan of the Father, that they will grow forever closer to Jesus' Heart through Mary's heart, that we will all be led by the Holy Spirit to do His work, that we will, together, carry out the plan of the Father as He intends us to, to spread the love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Mary's heart to this world.

Jesus, I pray for myself so the Holy Spirit descends upon me and opens my heart to Your love so I will grow more and more deeply in union with You. I pray that I do not worry what other people think but try always to please the Father and do His Will. I pray that I may help lead many to Your burning love.

I pray for the following people in particular that they will be filled with the Spirit and grow deeply in their union with You, that they will receive abundant graces to know, love and serve You more. (Include special friends by name...)

I pray for priests the world over, for the success of the Priestly Newsletter, the Chapters and for the finances needed for the Newsletter. I pray for the circulation of the Blue Book messages, rosary meditations and tapes. I pray for all those involved in the publication of these messages.

I pray that You will shower Your abundant graces onto the priests reading the Newsletter the people reading and hearing the Blue Book messages and rosary meditations and all of Fr. Carter's publications.

We pray for the intentions we hold deep within our hearts, for our families and friends, for those requesting our prayers. We pray for children the world over and for the souls in purgatory. We ask God to shower His abundant grace on us and the members of our Shepherds of Christ Chapter so that we may grow more and more in our knowledge and love of God.

We consecrate ourselves to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. We pray for Father Carter, for Father Smith, for Rita Ring, and for John Weickert, for all leaders and helpers in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, for Shepherds of Christ Ministries, and Our Lady of Light Ministry. We pray for all those who are working in these ministries.

We bind ourselves and our children and our friends to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. We place the precious blood of Jesus on ourselves, and all we touch, so that we will be protected from the evil one. We pray to St. Michael to cast the devil into hell.

We love You, God, we love You, we love You. We beg that we may receive the grace to love You more and more deeply. We adore You, we praise You, our beloved Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

Morning Offering

My dear Father, I offer you this day all my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings in union with Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world, in the Holy Spirit.

I unite with our Mother, Mary, all the angels and saints, and all the souls in purgatory to pray to the Father for myself, for each member of my family, for my friends, for all people throughout the world, for all the souls in purgatory, and for all other intentions of the Sacred Heart.

I love You, Jesus, and I give You my heart. I love you, Mary, and I give you my heart. Amen.



Through the Eucharistic Sacrifice Christ the Lord desired to set before us in a very special way this remarkable union whereby we are united one with another and with our divine Head, a union that no word of praise can ever sufficiently express. For in this sacrifice the sacred ministers act not only as the representative of our Saviour, but as the representative of the whole Mystical Body and of each one of the faithful. Again, in this act of sacrifice, the faithful of Christ, united by the common bond of devotion and prayer, offer to the eternal Father through the hands of the priest, whose prayer alone has made it present on the altar, the Immaculate Lamb, the most acceptable victim of praise and propitiation for the Church’s universal need. Moreover, just as the divine Redeemer, while dying on the Cross, offered Himself to the eternal Father as Head of the whole human race, so now, ‘in this clean oblation’ He not only offers Himself as Head of the Church to His heavenly Father but in Himself His mystical members as well. He embraces them all, yes, even the weaker and more ailing members, with the deepest love of His Heart. (Pope Pius XII, Mystici Corporis AAS. XXXV, 232-233)⁷

                R. We need to pray these prayers
                    for the priests,
                    the Church and
                    the world –

Dear

I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in love. 24 years ago on the feast of St. Ignatius, Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. said Jesus gave us this message to pray for the priests,
the Church and the world. Fr. Carter gave us these prayers with devotion to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart praying for the priests, the Church and the world, with
the Litany to Mary and Litany to the Sacred Heart.

Fr. Carter, S. J. had a doctors in theology and authored 24 books on the spiritual life. We then circulated 17,000,000 Priestly Newsletters loose and in books by Fr. Carter which was approved by the Jesuits. These prayers are translated in 8 languages with the Church’s Imprimatur.

Fr. Carter also said he got a message soon afterward, Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. Here is the content of that message, praying before the Eucharist for people and religious 2 hours a week.

Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus

       There is a new prayer movement which has been started under the direction
of Shepherds of Christ Ministries. We are 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 given. 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.
    This new prayer movement within the Shepherds of Christ Ministries is a powerful way to help in the renewal of the Church and the world. The name, Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus, has been given to this movement.
    Rita Ring is the coordinator for this activity.
    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.
2. For the Pope.
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.

     We have begun prayer chapters all over the world for 24 years, but this devotion to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and consecration of people and dioceses, schools, families and Churches to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart, is vital, Mary called for this at Fatima.

     Two years after Fr. Carter got the message, Mary’s image appeared like this on the building in Clearwater, Florida. This image was there 7 ½ years December 17, 1996 to March 1, 2004. We have this building, a vandal destroyed the image head on March 1, 2004. We have prayed there for 20 years for you and do now.

     We continue to pray for the priests, the Church and the world in our Church in China, Indiana before the exposed Eucharist for you, our beloved priests, the Church and the world. This has been our prayer there for 20 years. Fr. Carter died December 18, 2000.

     Enclosed are these prayers Fr. Carter gave us July 31, 1994 and we have prayed 24 years.

     Mary said “The family that prays together stays together.”

     Please help us spread these prayers Fr. Carter said Jesus gave him to pray for the priests, the Church and the world, in prayer chapters, in families, and praying the rosary.

     Help us to spread the prayers where people spend 2 individual hours a week praying before the Blessed Sacrament and praying the prayers as individuals for the priests, the Church and the world.

     Thank you for all you do for us. We are so grateful to God for this gift of priests and hierarchy and the Church. We give our lives doing this. We love the Church.

                                                                        With much love and gratitude,

                                                                        Rita Robinson Ring, Co-founder
                                                                        Shepherds of Christ Ministries

P.S. The prayers Fr. Carter, S.J. gave us in the Prayer Manuals are in the back of our books. We have circulated over 450,000 of Fr. Joe Robinson’s homily books, Guiding Light, to priests and hierarchy in the past decade. The prayers praying for the priests, the Church and the world are in all these books. Cardinal George told me in the beginning to circulate Fr. Robinson’s books. All active priests in the United States have these books we sent.

     We will provide prayer brochures for anyone wishing prayer brochures. We operate on donations and have worked hard to do this mission Fr. Carter, S.J. began. We have dedicated our lives praying for the priests, the Church and the world.
