Consecration Prayer for Peace

I consecrate Russia and the Ukraine to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I further consecrate the priests, the Church and the world to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I do this in the name of Jesus in as far as I am able, united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, praying to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, with all the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory through the powerful intercession of Mary, Queen of Peace. Amen.

I further consecrate myself, all members of my family and ask the Holy Spirit to fill us. I spread the Blood of Jesus on all above, I cast the devil into hell away from all of us and consecrate all persons, in as far as I am able,  to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart.

     

Prayer for Grace for our Country

Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families,  the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

R. Because of Christ’s death
we can die to sin, because
of Christ’s resurrection we
can share in His life
(because of baptism) -
we have New Life.
When looking at the
sacrifice of Christ we
must see the Pascal Mystery.
Dying to sin / Rising to New
Life.

The Eucharist: Source And Summit Of Christian Life

    Our personal relationship with Christ is characterized by the realization of the great, special love of His Heart for each of us and of our need to love Him in return. The chief source for growth in this personal relationship with Jesus is the Eucharist. The New Catechism tells us: “The Eucharist is ‘the source and summit of the Christian life.’ The other sacraments, and indeed all ecclesiastical mysteries and work of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it. For in the blessed Eucharist is contained the whole spiritual good of the Church, namely Christ himself, our Pasch.”6

6. The Catechism of the Catholic Church, p. 397.

 
R. We die to sin / we rise to
New Life in Christ.


New Life!!!!!


R. The Mystery of Christ
Death/Resurrection



 

R. Jesus is Light and in Him is
no darkness.

Jesus: My light shines on
all to see.
 



Luke 23:19-20

(This man had been thrown into prison because of a riot in the city and murder.) In his desire to set Jesus free, Pilate addressed them again,

Carson in the snow

Pray for Rosie

“Today is the day the Lord
has made, rejoice and be
glad.”



Ecclesiastes 3: 1-11

There is a season for everything, a time for every occupation under heaven: 

A time for giving birth, 
a time for dying; 
a time for planting, 
a time for uprooting what has been planted. 
A time for killing, 
a time for healing; 
a time for knocking down, 
a time for building. 
A time for tears, 
a time for laughter; 
a time for mourning, 
a time for dancing. 
A time for throwing stones away, 
a time for gathering them; 
a time for embracing, 
a time to refrain from embracing. 
A time for searching, 
a time for losing; 
a time for keeping, 
a time for discarding. 
A time for tearing, 
a time for sewing; 
a time for keeping silent, 
a time for speaking. 
A time for loving, 
a time for hating; 
a time for war, 
a time for peace. 

    What do people gain from the efforts they make? I contemplate the task that God gives humanity to labour at. All that he does is apt for its time; but although he has given us an awareness of the passage of time, we can grasp neither the beginning nor the end of what God does.


R. Did you ever think of the
miracle in the human eye,
the human heart, the
systems that take in food
and drink and dispose of
such?

But what if something
happens, then we must
deal with the break down,
we have no choice, if we
want to live.
God has put in us a desire
to live, even when we are
sick, but our bodies are
mortal, but God gave us an
immortal soul and He
wants us with Him forever
in our true home in heaven.
Heaven is a reward
promised to those who love
and serve the Lord. Heaven
is forever.
Heaven is for lovers.
The day before Fr. Carter
died, I was under the image
in Clearwater and I was
praying for Fr. Carter dying
at Columbiere. It was
December 17, 2000.
4th anniversary of Mary’s
apparition in Clearwater, 6:20
prayers. Jesus said to me,
stop praying for Fr. Carter's
healing, pray for his soul “Would
you have Me deprive a soul
of their just reward?”
The next night December
18, 2000, he died after 6:20
prayers at that moment.

There is a time.., God loves
us when we are rooted in
Him, He gives us what is
always good for us.



December 14, 2000

4 days before his death in Jesuit residence before he went to Columbiere
 

R. I remember doing a 5th
long ago in the Sorrowful
Mother Chapel at the Holy
Spirit Center and Mary
appeared and she said
"Someone here will really
suffer."
I turned around to see who,
and she was talking to me.

August 5, 1995
I would be kicked out of
Our Lady of the Holy Spirit
Center where Mary had
appeared now 13 months,
slowly.
Then directly September
11, 1995. I was told I could
say Our Fathers, Hail
Marys, but not the
Shepherds of Christ prayers
that had the Imprimatur
and no more messages and
apparitions from Mary.
The priest was out of town,
the lay discernment board
called me in.
Fr. Carter said he had an
agreement with the priest,
do the prayers and rosary
the next night and that was
all.
After the prayer service
when we went in the hall a
bat came at us and we ran
out ahead of the bat
after the prayers.
Fr. Carter told me to go to
Holy Cross-Immaculata
every day and do a holy
hour, then come to Mass at
the Jesuit residence.
It was then at Holy Cross-
Immaculata and the
Masses at the Fabre house,
where Fr. Carter said Mass,
I received the first Mass
Book and began writings
on the Mass.

Fr. Carter said Mass every
day!!!!

When we received the China
Church Fr. Carter and I went to China
and Fr. Carter said Mass
5 days a week in the China Church
and 2 days at his Jesuit residence.

 

August 5, 1995

Mary appeared August 5, 1995 and she said this: It was raining — the drops were big on the window next to Mary — Mary said “Souls are dropping into hell like rain”

Glorious Mysteries

Resurrection

1. R. Dear Mary, our beloved Mother, we are joined together with you to pray the rosary to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, to unite deeper and deeper in this love with Your Hearts. We pray this rosary for the spread of the devotion to Your Two Hearts. It is the 5th of the month - the first time you appeared here to me was 13 months ago and you have been coming, almost every day, to us as we pray this rosary. On this August 5, a first Saturday, a special day, we come to you, our beloved Mother and we ask you to look out over the crowd that you have called and assembled here and we ask you, dear Mother, to reach into the hearts of each person here and touch them with your motherly love in a very special way and draw them into your heart that they may dwell there and through the Holy Spirit be transformed more and more into the image of your Son. As we meditate on these mysteries of the rosary, we ask that your life and the life of your Son become more alive in our hearts and as we dwell, as we live in your heart, and the Heart of your Son, that we will live as you lived in purity in heart and love of God and love of our neighbor.

2. R. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to this earth our Savior. God wants us with Him forever and ever in heaven. He came to bring us life that we would have this life to the full if we go to heaven.

3. R. This is what the rosary is all about - it is meditating on the lives of Jesus and Mary so that we may grow more and more like Them. Life is not life if it is not rooted in God.

4. R. Pour out to us Your abundant life, let us feel the vibrancy of this life within us, let us feel the touch of Your grace within our being and help us to grow deeper and deeper in our love relationship with God.

5. R. I see the withered body of Jesus as He hung on the cross, lifeless. He gave the last drop of His blood and the last beat of His Heart. Meditate on His body. See it covered with wounds, covered with blood - His life ended. Next to this picture, see the risen body of our Lord. See the glorified wounds in His hands and His feet. See His body adorned and glistening in white. See Jesus as He rose victorious on the third day from the tomb. This is the Pascal mystery of death/resurrection. We live the Pascal mystery in our lives. Each moment of our day, going through struggles and in those struggles being raised to greater and greater life in Him. We live His life, death and resurrection in our lives. Dear Jesus, Help us to be witnesses to You in our lives.

   

Death   —   Resurrection

6. R. Mary Magdalene and some of the others came to the tomb. They had prepared spices to put on the body of Jesus and when they arrived there the stone had been rolled back and they did not understand. The angel said, “Why look among the dead for someone who is alive?” Luke 24:5 Mary Magdalene went away and she saw a gardener - she thought he was a gardener and it was Jesus! But they did not understand, even after all that Jesus had told them, they did not understand what had happened. Why do we look for the living among the dead? Jesus is alive and with us this very day. He is truly present in the tabernacle. When we are in the state of grace, He lives within our hearts in such a very special way. He is alive and truly present in the tabernacle in His Divinity and humanity. So many search and wander for that which will satisfy their starved souls, when the risen Lord is with us this day. So many have forgotten Him.

Jesus: I am alive, I am alive, I am alive and I am with you, My beloved ones. As you meditate on this rosary, draw ever closer to My Heart, through My Mother’s heart. This is a special rosary and I am outpouring to you abundant graces and gifts of My deep burning love for you. Open your hearts and I will enter very deeply into your hearts. You are My chosen ones that I have called here for I have a mission for you to go into the world to spread My love. I love you, I love you, I love you.

This is a rosary from Our Hearts to your heart. Put aside all distractions that are in your mind at this time, the problems that are troubling you, all of the feelings of self-doubt, release to My Heart and I will bathe you in My precious love, love, burning on fire for you. You must let go. Whatever thoughts that are parading in your mind, that are not of Me, dismiss those thoughts and focus totally on the prayers at hand. I am Jesus and I am touching you in a special way. Interiorly you will feel a deep touching of My grace, if you open your heart and let Me come in. I am Jesus, this rosary is about My Divine Life, the life I want to pour into your soul. ABUNDANT LIFE!!

7. Song: I Love You, Jesus

R. And He hung on a cross on Calvary and He breathed His last breath and His Heart was pierced with a lance and what flowed forth was blood and water. Water, a symbol of baptism, Blood, a symbol of the Eucharist. God gives us a sharing in His life in Baptism and feeds that life with the Eucharist! Jesus gives to us His abundant life. The Church, the sacraments a fountain of His grace.

    

R. This rosary is a rosary about life. Oh God fill us with Your life - we love You. Give us abundant grace, touch our hearts. God we surrender to Your will.

8. Jesus: The seeds of time move exceedingly slow. The hearts of many of My beloved souls have turned to hearts of stone. You, My beloved soldiers, I am giving you a sharing in My life in baptism - I am giving to those who ask more and more grace for their graced baptized soul. I am giving you My Divine love. I am fortifying you with your supplies to go into this world and to shine in the darkness. Many hearts are hardened and have turned ice cold. As you plant seeds in these hearts, I will water these seeds and they will grow in the sunlight and the light that radiates from your being from the light within you, it will shine on all those you touch. I am calling you to come for a deeper and deeper saturation of My life.

9. R. I have set before you life or death, the blessing or the

curse: Choose life, choose life, that you will live!

10. Matthew 28:19

    Go, therefore, make disciples of all nations; baptise them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,

Luke 24:47

    in his name, repentance for the forgiveness of sins would be preached to all nations

Jesus: It is in baptism, My dear sweet ones, that you are elevated to such heights. I elevate your knowing and loving capacity. I am Jesus. I am outpouring My life, My grace into your souls. Be sensitive to the touch of My grace in your souls. This is a visit from Jesus to you.

 

Ascension

1. Jesus: Come, My dear little sweet one to Me. You are stiff and you are hard. I want to communicate with you. I want to be one in you, you one in Me. Let go of the stiffness, release yourself, take this time and come closer to My Heart. Release yourself and let Me work deeper in your heart, as I fill you more and more with My abundant life. I am Jesus. I want to touch your soul. I want you to feel more and more the love of My Heart and My Mother’s heart for you. You will unite deeper and deeper in union with Me as you surrender and let go and let Me work in your heart.

2. R. Mary, Mother of the Eucharist. Mary and Jesus’ Hearts are joined in such intimacy for the Heart of Mary dwells within the Heart of her Son in deepest intimacy. It is in our dwelling in her Immaculate Heart that we too will dwell in deepest union in the Heart of Jesus, her beloved Son. (Mary is alive - she is gorgeous)

Mary, it is in your heart that you knew Jesus, for you lived with Him. He was inside of you. You watched Him grow. As He grew all through His life, you shared the sufferings and you shared the joys. You lived with Jesus, you talked with Jesus. He shared with you much of His Divine wisdom. All of these things you pondered and put in your Heart for you were there, as the apostles were in the field when Jesus ascended into Heaven and you watched your Son as He ascended into the sky. Mary help us to be in your heart now and to see your Son Jesus as you saw your Son, Jesus, all through your life, to understand Him as you understood Him, to love Him as you loved Him. We want to dwell in deep union in your Heart and to know Jesus as your heart knows Jesus. As we meditate on this mystery, help us to experience more your feelings and your emotions, your interaction with Jesus, to live this mystery in your Heart, dear Mary.

3. R. We are commissioned in baptism to carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. In the Rosary Chapel, across from the Ascension, we see the mystery of the rosary: Mary is visiting her cousin Elizabeth. Mary goes to tell one person the good news and in the Ascension we see Jesus above the apostles and the Virgin Mary. He leaves behind the apostles and the Virgin Mary to carry out His work. From proclaiming the Good News from one person to leaving twelve men behind to carry out His life, death and resurrection in the world and look at the church this day - the church that was lead by these twelve men!

4. R. Jesus ascended into heaven, but He left the apostles and the Virgin Mary behind to carry out the work that He had begun. Jesus is alive this day. He lives in our hearts. He is in the Holy Eucharist. He is truly present in His Divinity and Humanity, He is as present as the day He walked the earth.

5. R. My dear, dear, tender Mother, help me to live in your heart. Help me to love with your Heart, to love the Father, more like you knew and loved the Father, to love your Son, Jesus more like you knew and loved your Son, Jesus, to love the Holy Spirit, your beloved Spouse more like you loved the Holy Spirit! I want to live and dwell in your heart, Mary. I will learn to love God more, more like you loved God. I will love Him more and more like you love Him and I will love my neighbor more and more like you. You love your little children of this world. I will love my brothers more like you, as I live and dwell in your heart, Mary.

6. R. Jesus was born a little baby in the town of Bethlehem and He ascended into heaven but He leaves behind His Apostles and the Virgin Mary to carry out the work that He had begun. It is in our living His life, death and resurrection, in our dwelling in Their Hearts, that we carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives. As Mary was pure and gentle and tender in heart, as we dwell in her heart, as we live in her heart, as we operate from her heart, we too will be gentle and loving and more pure, like our Mother Mary.

7. R. As each of us unite to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, we will be united in such oneness with each other. Let us all dwell in the heart of our loving Mother and in the Heart of her Son, Jesus and let us be one in Him.

8. R. He gives to us Himself in the Holy Eucharist. We become one in Him when we receive Him in Communion. Each one of us are one in Him. We unite in deeper union when we all receive the Holy Eucharist, for as I am one in Him and you are one in Him, we are one with each other.

9. Jesus: I call you, My dear ones, to go out into this world and to spread the Gospel message that Jesus has died, He has risen, and He will come again.

10. Hail Mary

 

Descent of the Holy Spirit

1. R. And there was a gigantic-like wind and there appeared over their heads parted tongues of fire and they were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in foreign tongues.

2. R. The Apostles were filled with fear and they had locked themselves in the upper room.

Acts 1: 4-5

...’It is’, he had said, ‘what you have heard me speak about: John baptised with water but, not many days from now, you are going to be baptised with the Holy Spirit.’

Acts 2: 3-4

and there appeared to them tongues as of fire; these separated and came to rest on the head of each of them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves.

R. The Holy Spirit descended upon them and the Apostles were transformed from fear to fearlessness and they went out to preach the Gospel message.

3. R. They were filled with the Holy Spirit and knew that Jesus was alive and He lived in them and that He lived in the Holy Eucharist and they went out to convert many and to baptize. Peter healed the paralytic. All the signs that they performed and wonders and thousands were baptized and converted. They were fearless - They were filled with zeal. They had faith!! Deep Faith!!

4. R. They saw Jesus, they lived with Him, they saw Him die on the cross and they saw Him on the third day after He rose from the dead. They were still filled with fear until the Holy Spirit descended upon them and then they went out, fearing no more.

Dear Holy Spirit, we beg You to come upon us in a powerful way and to fill us with the fire of God’s love, to set our tongues on fire with the love of God so that what comes forth from our mouth is this deep-rooted love that is within us, that we are not afraid, in the workplace, and in the world, for we see before us a world that is hurting and in pain.

Forgive us when we do little to spread Your Word even though we see the evil paraded before us. Help us to be filled with zeal to preach the Good News. We hold back when we know we should be witnesses and tell many of Your love spread in the Blue Books, Your letters of love. Spread these rosary meditations from You. Fill us with fearlessness to carry out the Gospel message in our actions, in our words, and however the Father intends us to carry out this message, to shine with the light of the Almighty God in us and to be proud for we know that Jesus is alive and He is in our midst!

5. Song: Come Holy Spirit

6. R. As the Holy Spirit formed the Child Jesus in the womb of the Virgin Mary and the Christ Child received His life through Mary’s heart, we are transformed in the heart of Mary. Dear Holy Spirit, work in Mary’s heart and turn us more and more into the image of Jesus that we too may be the lights that shine His love to the darkness of the world.

From Tell My People

The Holy Spirit

Jesus: “My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary’s Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother’s Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!”

7. R. As we are transformed more and more by the Holy Spirit in the heart of the Virgin Mary, we are led closer and closer to our Beloved Father.

8. R. This is what it is all about - union with God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. To know the Father and love the Father more and more, we dwell in the pure heart of Mary. We love with Mary’s heart!! To love the Father with the love Mary had for the Father. To love Jesus with Mary’s heart. To love Jesus through the heart of Mary. To love the Holy Spirit through her tender heart.

9. R. We share in His Divine Life. We are saturated more and more in this life in our graced baptized soul. As we are on this earth, we are becoming more saturated with His Divine Life. We want to go to heaven and see the beatific vision and be full of grace in heaven. Every day we are on our way to eternity. Our union for all eternity depends on the depth of our union that we have with God here on earth. Let us grow more and more in this union through the heart of our beloved Mother.

10. Song: Come Holy Ghost

 

The Assumption of Mary into Heaven

1. R. Jesus ascended into heaven and Mary was taken into heaven, body and soul, but we carry out His life, death and resurrection in our lives and, as we dwell in the heart of Mary, we love with her heart, we love God with her heart, and we love all of our brothers through her pure and tender heart and she lives in this world this day. We consecrate our hearts to Jesus and Mary.

       

2. R. With gentleness and love, she accepted the will of the Father and all through the struggles of her life we see her in perfect peace. We see Jesus always did the will of His Father, to His death on the cross. It is in living in accordance to the Father’s will that we will have peace and joy in our lives.

3. R. Our little heaven on earth, dwelling in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. How you are in your hearts so you will be in this world. If we dwell in the heart of Mary, the heart that dwells in the Heart of Jesus, and know and love Him so intimately in every tender detail, if we love with Mary’s heart, the love of these Two Hearts will be in us.

4. Jesus: My dear ones, I live within. When you are in the state of grace, the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, dwell in your graced baptized soul. You must become stronger and stronger in this interior union with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Consecrating your hearts to Our Two Hearts will strengthen you for the days ahead. You will know this place within yourselves and know My burning love, that does not flicker in your hearts, you will have peace and joy in the deepest sufferings. I fill you with My life!! If you dwell in Our Hearts, you will be filled with Our love. My sweet ones, I love you. I love you, I love you, with a deep love. Go into the inner sanctuaries of your heart, take refuge from the cold world and know that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, dwell within you. The more you are saturated with My life, the deeper this presence will become within you, even if you cannot receive the Eucharist. You will know the presence of the Almighty God within your heart in a special way at all times.

Sing Song: I am Your Sacred Heart

5. R. Close your eyes and focus on your heart and feel the presence of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit within you, the Holy Spirit, filling you with the fire of God’s love, a vibrancy, a life, a might that is too mighty to be contained. Focus on this presence for a few seconds. Be alone with the Almighty God that is alive within your heart.

6. R. The wind may blow and the sun cease to shine but you can go to the inner sanctuaries of your heart and feel the presence of the Almighty God. Stay in the state of grace!!

7. Jesus: Go to confession and let go of the debris in your heart, hatred and anger, and resentment towards any person. In order to unite with Me your hearts must be pure and clean. My dear ones, such peace you will have when you go to confession and confess your sins. Make reparation for your sins and forgive yourself. Let go of all guilt and be about the job at hand to spread My light to this world. Be truthful about your sins. Beg to be forgiven. As you are in your hearts, so shall you be in this world. Satan wants you bowed down. He wants you to cast a dark cloud in the world. As you are in your hearts, you will be to this world. Release yourself of all of the troubles you are experiencing at this time and come and dwell in Our Hearts.

8. Jesus: Let go and give your problems to the Father in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in the Holy Spirit, through the powerful intercession of My Mother. I am Jesus. I am calling you to deepest union with Our Hearts. Surrender and let go and miracles will happen in your life. As you let go, many of those things you worry about will work themselves out. You spend endless hours in worry and I am guarding the very hairs of your head. I am pondering your hearts. I love you, I love you, I love you. I long to hear these words from your lips. When you worry, tell Me of your love. I am waiting for our love affair. Consecrate your hearts to Our Two Hearts. Surrender and let go.

9. Jesus: Live for the love of God. Do not live to be prideful and better than your brother. Live to love God. Do not worry about what people are thinking about you if you are performing all of your acts for the love of God. Say to yourself, I do this for the love of You, Jesus, my best friend and continue to do the Father’s work. I am Jesus. I am attentive to your every need minute by minute, second by second. Come to Me. Trust in My Sacred Heart. I am waiting for your love affair with Me.

10. R. Mary was taken into heaven body and soul, but she remains alive and with us this day. Do you feel the presence of your heavenly Mother with you this day as she holds you and presses you to her breast?

Mary: I am Mary, your Mother. I am caring for you, my little children, tenderly and lovingly, I am tending to you, my little beloved children. Do not worry. Jesus and I are with you.

 

Coronation

1. R. The Father chose Mary from among all women to be the Mother of His Son. The Child Jesus grew within the womb of the Virgin Mary. Mary is the Mediatrix of all grace. Mary’s heart was invisibly pierced with a sword.

2. R. Mary is crowned Queen of Heaven and Earth. She is the human person that is closest to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is in modeling our lives after her life that we will be more and more as the Father created us in His own image and likeness.

3. R. In the Rosary Chapel, there are these beautiful windows of the 15 mysteries of the Rosary. Mary is in the window and Jesus is crowning her Queen and beside her is the Father, and above her, the Holy Spirit. This is a most beautiful window, for as we grow more and more in our life with God, as we know the Father more and more and love Him through Mary’s heart and love Jesus through Mary’s heart, and the Holy Spirit through Mary’s heart, we will unite closer and closer in our union with God. This is what eternity is all about - to be in deepest union with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, dependent on our union with Them here.

4. R. Take special moments all through the day and focus on the presence of the Almighty God within you.

5.

Act of consecration to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary

“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! 

“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.”

6. R. Help us more and more to dwell in the heart of our Mother and dwell ever deeper in the Heart of her Beloved Son so that we will love God through the pure and sinless heart of Mary. To pray every prayer that we pray from Mary’s heart! Help us to join ever closer to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and someday we hope to be in heaven. Mary received her crown and she is Queen of Heaven and Earth.

7. Song: Eye Has Not Seen

8. Mary: My dear children, I am Mary, your Mother and I tell you how Satan is pressing down on this earth. He is causing confusion and division in your hearts. He is keeping you focused on problems and keeping you from your deep union with my Son. Come to my Heart and let me protect you in my motherly love. Give all your cares to me. I am guarding your children, and guarding your lives. I am your Mother of love. More than any earthly Mother, I love you! You must surrender and come to Our Hearts for the days ahead will be hard and dark, and as Satan is pressing on you this day, he will press harder tomorrow. You must learn to put aside the distractions, the confusion, the division in your hearts and come to my Heart with a heart that is humble and filled with love. Satan talks in your mind and causes you to be upset. Let go, my little children. I am Mary, your Mother. I am appearing as Our Lady of Light to show you the way is the way through Our Hearts, to the light. Within your heart you will have a light that does not flicker. It is constantly burning, in deep love. You must not give in to the distractions in your mind. Come to the tabernacle. My Son will give you all the answers. (R. She is alive in the statue). Mary continues: He is waiting for you to come, come and sit in silence and let Him work in your heart. You will know what you are to do. You must come to the tabernacle. You must come to Mass and Communion. It is there you receive abundant graces from Him. You will be filled deeply with His life. Do not be filled with fear, be filled with hope and joy and pray to the Holy Spirit to give you His wisdom to know the will of the Father. (R. She is alive in the statue - gorgeous).

9. Mary: As you see me here before you, you know I am with you in all of your trials and all of your struggles. You must discipline your thoughts and come to my Son. It is through the Eucharist that you will be strengthened for all your trials.

10. Song: Immaculate Mary

Message after the Rosary

Mary: As the rain falls, so too many sufferings will fall around you. You will not be harmed, for I am protecting you with my motherly mantle. You must surrender and come to Our Hearts, be with my Son Jesus, deeply united in your hearts. Meditate on the presence of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit within you. Pray for the grace to know and love God more. Pray to the Father, in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, in the Holy Spirit, through the powerful intercession of the Virgin Mary.

Pray all through the day and offer all of your actions to the Father with your petitions in the morning. I am Mary, your Mother. You are being guarded and I am appearing to you to deliver this message - that your hearts will be quieted and you will be about the work of the Father in spreading the love of my Son Jesus into this world. The Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph and the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign. You should pray for the spread of the devotion to Our Two Hearts, and consecrate yourselves to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary every day.

I am Mary, your Mother, and I am guarding you.

Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Litugical Year (2011/2012)
$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10
