Messenger: And so for the Priestly Newsletter
ministry we have a priest who has his doctors and is able to teach in the
Gregorian Colleges and the Pontifical Colleges, who worked for 14 years on his dissertation on the Blessed Mother and the Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius,
who has written the first newsletter 10 years after Fr. Carter began it.
And we
need your support to be able to send this newsletter that is most powerful to
all these priests, to encourage them to consecrate their hearts to the Hearts of
Jesus and Mary, to encourage them to tell the people of the great gift that is given
in the Eucharist and the Word of God, to tell them about discernment and about
Mary and her role in the Church.
Mary is our Mother. She appeared for 7 years in
Clearwater, Florida to deliver the message from the Father and look how she was
treated. And so if her head is gone and under the image of Jesus' face is a sinkhole
and last week or so we dealt with the fact that the hurricane was ready to rip
Clearwater off and then turned, do you think that the Father is happy with the
earth when He sends Mary as a messenger for a whole century? And they jailed the
kids on August the 13th, we were blocked at the Holy Spirit Center, the Falmouth
Farm and here we are the head is knocked off, the acid was thrown on her face.
But what are the ministries, but the ministries of Jesus who gave them to Fr.
Carter. These were signs that God gave to help us do the work, what will help the
ministry to be spread — is to deliver the word that God has asked us to deliver
about the prayer chapters, about the Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart. Why did
Mary appear to me over 500 times before she appeared 7 years on the
building — to
spread the rosaries to the schools, to make the rosaries — Where are our rosary
makers? We can look at September 11, 2001 and see the devastation, but September
11, 2002 our rosary factory in the Virgin Mary Building was closed because we
did not even have money for the beads.
And some of it is our own fault
when we don't tell the people of the gifts that God has given to us. How come so
many people today do not realize that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist
and how wonderful it is to be a priest? Does the cat
have our tongues? Our life here is so short. And
for not doing the work that we should have done it may affect a soul. Our
prayers for the priests are mighty prayers because God has promised tremendous
grace.
Will you hear the word of a messenger that asked
for this, to spread the
newsletter that's centered in the consecration to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
and the documents of the Church, the scriptures, by a holy Jesuit doctor priest,
to begin the prayer chapters consecrating our hearts to the Hearts of Jesus and
Mary and singing and saying the Litany to the Sacred Heart and to the Virgin
Mary.
And why do I speak today? Because God called me as a messenger to be here
on this eve of August the 22nd. August the 22nd is the day that the Queenship of Mary is
usually celebrated. His Sacred Heart will reign and her Immaculate Heart will
triumph and the world will recognize Him as King and her as Queen. And they have
called us to spread these ministries and if we maul around and we don't say what we
are suppose to do when God sends the person — How did you get here? You may have
been given a Blue Book but the grace was given from God to lead you into a
deeper commitment. Had the person not been determined to give you the Blue Book
or tell you about the prayer chapters because they were tired that day, maybe
your life would be different. God wants us to tell our youth about the greatness
of the priesthood and to pray for those boys that they will answer that
vocation.
What about the ministry of getting the rosaries to the school?
If Mary appeared to you every day for 500 days you might speak stronger than me,
because it's really, really hard to see the Blessed Mother, to know what she
says and then where are our rosary makers? Well we closed the rosary factory so we
spread a few bags.
It doesn't take the people in Southern Indiana to do it, it
doesn't take Doris to order the beads to do it. It takes a whole bunch of people
to listen to their hearts that are prompted to give the money so we can buy the
beads, for that person to have the conviction that the Blessed Mother appeared
to me 500 times delivering this message, for the people in Indiana to want to do
it, to make the rosary routes, to do all that counting, or whatever they do
to put them in the bag, to suffer because they do suffer when they do that.
What happened to the rosary makers because in September of 2002 we closed the rosary factory in
Florida in a building where the Blessed Mother had appeared for how many years
every day and we couldn't even get money for the rosary beads. What happened to
all those rosary makers?
We have a ministry that God has given to us and He has
asked us to tell the world about it. It's not because of the image except we
want to preserve Jesus' face and be grateful for the years that Mary appeared
there. It is to spread the words that He has given to us in the writings of Fr.
Carter and the Blue Books and the rosary meditations, in the ministries, the
priestly newsletter, the prayer chapters, the Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart,
the rosaries to the schools, the nursing homes.
So you go out to the nursing homes and Jesus says I want all the people to at least go to a nursing home
once a week. I've been saying that since 1995 — 9 years. And every time I try to
deliver the message it's seems like it's met with greater resistance.
I told
some people today it's like opening up a door and then seeing a wall of cinder
block behind it. You know those fake doors, where they put it in a room, and it
looks like there's a door there and you're going to go outside. Well
I get the message from the Lord, I open the door, I call you,
I say this is what Our Lord wants, you say, "Well we can't do that".
We have the Virgin Mary Building/Building of the Two Hearts
for the reason of spreading these ministries. And every month we're like on a
teeter-totter trying to get those payments etc etc, but some how we do it. It's
like the sinkhole, the sinking of the Titanic. And then to top it off, after her
head gets knocked off, then this hurricane's almost going to go right by there
— roooaaar — then it changes course — and we're worrying about the
ink.
God is sending people to all of us at
different times and it is that time that we should do precisely what God has
asked us to do, not too much - not too little, but to have our tongues tied
tight to not tell the people of the world about the DVDs that could be used
on that power point in the schools is to miss a big part of the School
Rosary Program.
An update is necessary — the DVDs can
be put into a power point and projected on a screen that's like 96 x 76 and
when the kids are saying, if they only say one mystery of the rosary, or
in the nursing home when they say that, you can project up there different
shots from that DVD of the Crucifixion, it is so effective. Look at all of
the mechanisms that are used to teach all kinds of weird stuff to our
children and we've got this tremendous DVD.
The thing that lets me know that it's
not going out too much out of Florida is that fact that they haven't ask for
one in how long? A year — I don't know — since we put them out — I
don't know. I'm telling you people that are listening to the sound of my
voice that are in the schools to get this DVD and put it on a power point
and every Friday or whenever it is the time you think, sit those kids down
and say as much of the rosary as you think they can.
The things that we have on the stations
are so gorgeous — the stations that Jesus gave to us Himself or the ones
that have the Imprimatur in different languages. But they're so
heartfelt, we have so many things to say. If you are the voice that you've
said to Jesus, "I'm going to answer this call" and you're the
contact person, tell them about the ministries. This is the message that I
have received from Jesus. Tell them about the School Rosary Program.
When Fr. Carter was dying of cancer we
put 250,000 rosaries in the schools in October. The devil comes and the
devil works in trying to get you to work this way or that way or this way.
We go to work every day. When we go to the Virgin Mary Building, you go to
China, this is our work. This is why we are here, we pray deeply united to
God but we go to work to make the ministry work.
Pray with me now as we unite deeper
than ever before to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary on this night of August the
21st,
2004. My dear heavenly Father, I come to you as a messenger that you have
asked to deliver these messages to the world and I beg for the grace and the
conviction for the love of Your most Sacred Heart and the heart of Your
Mother to be the permeating focus of our hearts, to see that we do all that
we can to spread the love messages that Jesus has given in God's Blue
Books, the newsletter, for the priests that they will consecrate their
hearts to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and spread that consecration
to the people, that through our work we will encourage the pictures of the
Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart be in the homes of the people and that
they make Jesus the King and Center of their hearts.
The devil comes and he wants people to
focus on the bottom of the mountain issues. Where is your work taking you?
From the building in Florida God wanted us to contact this earth to spread
the devotion to the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary to help to
bring about the reign of the Sacred Heart and the triumph of Mary's
Immaculate Heart, to get the rosaries in the hands of the school children,
to make rosaries from there for the School Rosary Program, to show the
people the tables that have the ministries. I can't even find my own Blue
Book when I go into the store in Florida. We need tour guides.
These are the coloring books. They go with these discs
over here. Your children can pray the rosary at night with you or they can
be used in the power points in the schools and they are so
effective.
But more than that Our Lady has given a
message for a century that if we want peace in the world we must pray the
rosary. The children that pray the rosary in grade school will be helped by
Our Lady when they go to high school and to colleges. That is a promise that
she has made to me. Our Lady said a lot of things to me when she appeared
500 times — but it really boiled down to getting those rosaries in the
schools. I could never understand, I would see Our Lady and I'd feel like
standing on the roof of the church and telling the people.
And yet they focused on me because the
devil is deception, he wants to stop the work that God has asked us to do in
the Shepherds of Christ to spread the newsletter, the prayer chapters, the
Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart, the rosary.
I've had a sore toe for about 3 weeks.
If all I do is talk about my sore toe, and I'm sure I've done it enough to
the leaders in the Shepherds of Christ, pretty soon I'm not going to be
doing any work, because I'm going to sit around all day and think about my
toe. All satan has to do is come and tempt us with a little memory or whatever else he wants to work
on, I don't know.
That's the purpose of this Ignatian
Retreat. Where do these things that we get, that we want to act on, come
from? Are they coming from God — the Holy Spirit? Are they just things
that we are thinking ourselves and maybe they're not good things to do
because they are not God's will or are they coming from the evil one? But if
you just act helter-skelter without analyzing where this prompting for
action is coming from — discernment — then a lot of the times you're not
going to be doing what God's telling us to do, so all of us need to have our
St. Ignatius Spiritual Exercises by our side and a couple times of the week
read that Discernment of Spirits so we keep focused on what St. Ignatius is
saying so that we'll make the right choices.
Naturally the hour before the Blessed
Sacrament, the Mass are all crucial for us servants, handmaids and apostles
in the Shepherds of Christ because we need that grace.
Pray with me because I hear Our Lady
speak in my heart to all of us that are gathered here.
Hail Mary
I see a boat on a river, a big boat, and
it was a house boat but all of a sudden termites ate the whole top and all
that was left was the boat part. And it keeps on going down that river. And
it's lost all contact with the world. It just wonders aimlessly about,
thrashing — surviving.
And I see another boat and it is
glistening in the sun and it too suffered damages to the house portion but
it moves steadily guided ahead by the voice of God.
Think of the Titanic — and it was the
greatest ship that was ever made and they all got on there and they were
adorned in their jewels and they had all their big cases filled with pearls
and the finest treasures. And there was drinking and dancing, music — joy,
joy, joy — and suddenly — did it hit an iceberg — isn't that weird —
when God says their hearts are so cold — and she sunk mighty
fast.
And the wind can blow and the storms
can come, and let's face it, the only way we're going to have peace in this
world is to listen to the Queen of Peace. And if she speaks to you and me
and appears on the building and appears to me and we don't have the vavoom
that we need inside of us to tell the rest of the world that lies sleeping —
do we need a hurricane to blow us away?
For 14 months the Blessed Mother
appeared to me daily with a message of those rosaries in the schools. There
are people that will hear this tape on our radio and if you know that God is
calling you to help us in any way, to spread the devotion to the Sacred
Heart and the Immaculate Heart, to begin the prayer chapters that Jesus
asked Fr. Carter to begin doing the litanies, praying for the priests, the
church and the world in this troubled time. The priesthood is the
institution by God, if men are sinful that doesn't mean that the priesthood
of God is not magnificent.
This Church is a gift that God has given
to us and bride of Christ. Because people sin it doesn't mean that the
institution given to us by God is not a great gift, it is – the
gift that God gives to us in the Church and that Jesus Christ remains with
us truly present in the Eucharist, the gift of the priest —
You don't know who God is sending to
you to deliver the message or how God will affect their hearts when they
pray the prayers but He will use those prayers in the prayer manual to give
great grace He says to take the people into His Heart and Mary's heart. And
the contact people of this Movement have a job to do — for 10 years we
have been circulating material around the world. We must have billions of
places with the Morrow address and how many of those cards where we tell
about the Virgin Mary Building in Florida —
So here comes a guy from Hong Kong and
he's thought about it for 3 years and he gets over there and he gets up
there and you scratch your head and just don't say nothing. I am asking all
of you — servants, handmaids, apostles, associates, Apostles of the
Eucharistic Heart — to pray to do what God wants you to do with your
vocation. That's not to be crazy and go from door to door, that's not what
God's saying. There is a difference between sitting on the chair and saying
nothing and calming saying, not like I'm saying to you because they'll
probably run, calming saying — that Mary wants the school children to get
the rosaries.
We have all these ministries and with
the excitement of a heart that is glad because God has called you to be to
the Shepherds of Christ, you delivered a message of joy within your heart
about the ministries. That building in Florida is strategically located that
people can come from all over the world and the place in China is secluded
that people can come from all over and go to the retreats here and know what
it's like to have a peace and serenity and joy in your heart, to be with
Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, to pray together at Holy Mass during the
retreats, for the priests, the Church and the world. God may be calling you
to a vocation in the Shepherds of Christ Movement.
Do you hear the sound of My voice and
the message that the Father speaks to you to come, come to China to make a
retreat, to pray before the Blessed Sacrament, to come to Florida, to come
to our store in China to see all the ministries that we have here, the
beautiful pictures of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart, the
consecration for the homes, the rosary kits that people in nursing homes and
other places, assisted living can help us make these rosaries and do what
Mary said will help to bring about the peace in the world.
We can do all these money making things
for peace and the rosary beads cost hardly nothing. Help us get them to the
youth. They can spend $5.00 for a porno magazine which are what the stands
are full of today. Do you know how many rosaries we could make for like
5.00. How much is it Doris? Huh — 50? We could probably make 50 rosaries
for the cost of a porno magazine. You see the picture of Mary and her foot
is crushing the head of the serpent. Is her foot crushing the head of the
serpent? We have Our Lady of China here. She might not have a foot crushing
the head of the serpent. I don't see no serpents there. She's carrying the
baby Jesus and in His hands He has a cross.
I want to talk about the ministries
again. The A #1 ministry for the Shepherds of Christ Movement is to
circulate the priestly newsletter which is about to happen. #2 and equally
is the prayer chapters praying for the priests, the Church and the world.
The Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus are a very vital part and one
that we have just not done as much as we could have in all of these years.
Two hours in front of the Blessed Sacrament praying for the reign of the
Sacred Heart, the triumph of Mary's heart, for the pope, the bishops, the
priests, the cardinals too, the sisters, the brothers, the Church, the souls
in purgatory, for all the Shepherds of Christ members. I'm probably
forgetting some things.
The School Rosary Program, the rosary
program in general, the Nursing Home Program which is really vital that we
keep trying to do when we have all these nursing home videos. The DVDs
really on the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary led by Fr. Mike are really
awesome. I mean those can be used a lot, the Mass DVD for the nursing
homes.
I mean really when some body comes up,
I talk, and then after awhile they look like they're dancing then I think
I'd better hurry up because then they're going to walk away but
they at least got something. If I'm at a site, a contact site, and Our Lord tells me
to talk to them, I'm going to talk to them about His ministries, I'm the one
that He's called to do this. But that's how each and every one of us were
called in a different way, a lot of us by the Blue Books.
The Shepherds of Christ Movement was
not put into place because of the image of Mary on the building in Florida.
The Shepherds of Christ Ministries Movement and what God wants, to form an
order to help renew the Church and the world is here because of the words
that He has given to us, the meditations in the rosary and those are the
things that we have to focus on. If we put all our eggs in that basket of a
vision, we can see that parallelism with what God did to me.
When the other visionaries in
Cincinnati were seeing Our Lady early on and I was writing the Blue Book
messages, I never saw anything in 93 when I wrote Blue Book I. I saw
Jesus' face, I saw Mary once in July 93, Jesus' face once in October. But
the depth of the message that God delivered to me was what was important.
The depth of the message that God has given to us to deliver to the earth is
what is important and although our hearts long for the beauty of Our Lady of
Clearwater to see her again on the window, that's not the focus of this
Movement. It was there to help us to do this work of spreading the
Ministries. So whether she's there or not there is not the issue, the issue
is these ministries.
So I give to you a sweet message from
Mary.
February 5,
2004
Mary speaks: My dear children, I am Mary your
Mother and I come to you to ask you to listen to the words of a messenger
that God has sent to you this night. For He calls to you that your hearts
will be filled with greatest joy for God has contacted the earth in these
messages, and has delivered the message of His love to the world in the Blue
Books, and to pray fervently for the newsletter and the prayer chapters that
must be begun in the other foreign lands, for I see you stymied for so few
prayer chapters are prayed even in the languages available because so much
focus is created, many times by the distractions of satan, and when you ask
God to bless you in your work examine your heart and to see what is your
focus. One apple can hurt the bunch. I ask you to see yourselves as a body
that God has called each and every person committed into spreading the
ministries or praying as you have been called to help to renew the Church
and the world and on this night August 21, 2004 to help to bring about the
reign of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the triumph of my Immaculate Heart.
Amen.
My children I love you, I am Mary your
Mother. I thank you for the work that you have given, the sacrifices that
you have made, the love in your hearts, this is a message to help strengthen
you that you will be more fruitful. Thank your God for the message delivered
and work with this message with joy in your heart. Amen.
Song: Ashes
Messenger: Dear God the Father in the name of
your Son Jesus Christ in the Holy Spirit with all the angels and the saints
and the souls in purgatory, we pray to You to please give us all the funds
that we need to be able to do this work, to forgive our failings and the
times that we may have been focused on ourselves and not on promoting Your
Kingdom.
Dear God help us to be strong apostles,
servants and handmaids and to get along in deep love, to create centers in
which people come and they feel that they are so happy to be there, like our
wonderful church in China, the feeling of the warmth that Jesus is truly
present here and we love Him so much.
Dear God we love You. Amen.
Song: Ashes
Song: Save Us Oh Lord
Messenger: Dear Father, we love You, we adore
You, we thank You for the gifts that You have given to us. We're sorry for
our sins and the sins of the earth and we beg for Your mercy and we beg for
the world to be the way that You want it to be. We pray for the priests, the
Church and the world united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass going around
the world.
Dear Father, please give us the money
that we need in order to do what we have to do to help these ministries
spread. Dear God help us.
Song: Without Clouds
Messenger: There's a real important message
that's going on tonight but you can also hear it on the internet because the
retreat is on the internet. And if you hear it on the internet you really
may want to make a retreat because it's really a powerful experience.
