I saw today our home is the Heart of Christ. Mary is the gatekeeper of this most sacred place. The Lord, the Good Shepherd, is leading us home to His Heart. We are fed on His life. The graces flow abundantly in the Mass and the Sacraments. Through priests we have the Mass and the Sacraments. The priest is another Christ to the world.

Mary is the gateway to the Heart of Christ. She is the key for the priest to have such oneness with Christ. Priests need to honor, respect, and love Mary. The Holy Spirit is espoused to Mary. The priest must love Mary to be united to God.

The life flows from the Father, in the Holy Spirit, through the pierced Heart of Christ, and through Mary, to us. The priest celebrates the Mass, acting as another Christ and administers the Sacraments. The more he is one with Christ, the more he helps channel grace, the more the people are fed.

Jesus picked the priest. He chose them. He gave them this great gift. The priest is given the highest honor to be another Christ, to celebrate Mass, to consecrate bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ, to baptize, to forgive sins, to administer other Sacraments.

The priest is a great force in helping to channel grace to others. In order for the priest to be most like Christ, he must go through the pure and sinless heart of Mary, there is not another way.

John 10:2-3
"He who enters through the gate is the shepherd of the flock; the gatekeeper lets him in..."

Mary is the gatekeeper; there is not another pure and sinless human person. We cannot enter any other way because we are sinners. He gave us the sinless one as the way we enter into His most Sacred Heart. The fountain of life flows from His Heart through the pierced wound.

Mary is the gatekeeper. Satan is trying to separate the priest from Mary. Satan does not want the priest to be one with Christ for he is the one who celebrates the Mass and administers the Sacraments. Under Christ, the priest is the main administrator of this fountain of life. So Satan has waged a war against the priest and Mary.

Mary is the key to oneness with Christ. Only in going through the pure and sinless one will we be properly one with Christ. It is in this oneness with Christ that the graces flow.

Consecration to Mary and Jesus is the way home to the depth of His Heart, our little heaven on earth. We are barely scratching the surface of His Heart. We must enter deeply into His Heart for the grace to flow as fire across the earth. The fire of His love will magnificently cover the earth when more priests' hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary in celebrating the Mass.

Oh fountain of life! The lance pierced His Heart deeply. The thorns surrounding His Heart, pressed in deeply. Many today love Him with a shallow love.

The words in the Mass and Scriptures are not tasted deep within. The depth is not there. We must love Him with our whole heart, our whole soul, and our whole being.

We must pray for the priests. The priestly newsletter, Shepherds of Christ, is a great aid to lead the priests to consecration. It is our job in the Shepherds of Christ Movement to be His Shepherds to help lead the strayed ones back to His Heart.

We become one in His Heart, through the great graces He gives when we consecrate our hearts.

As we become one in His Heart we are leading the strayed ones home to His Heart through the consecration. There will be one flock and one Shepherd as hearts are led home to His Heart through the consecration. We are shepherding His flock as we spread the consecration to the churches, schools, and families.

We are richly fed with the Eucharist. We encourage the priests to read the priestly newsletter. We ask them to start prayer chapters in the churches centered in consecration, and we beg them to leave the church open so people can spend time with Jesus before the tabernacle.

The institutions are intact, we must encourage them to consecrate their hearts. We are attempting to reach the school children with the consecration and the rosary. We are trying to reach the family with starting prayer chapters in their homes and daily praying the consecration and rosary together.

Mary has asked us to observe the first Saturday devotion. If many did this, many, many souls would be saved. It is all in the spirit of reparation as we give our love to God. For Mary's and Jesus' Hearts have greatly been offended. We must make reparation to our God.

The Father looks to the earth. He wants one happy family in which we are loving each other as real brothers. He showed us the depth of His love when He laid down His life for us. This is the love He wants from us.

He wants us to be one happy family in the Shepherds of Christ Movement. Deeply loving one another, deeply united in love that we would love as He showed us how to love, that we would lay down our lives for our brother.

We are helping to lead men into this new era. This is the good news as we spread the consecration. Our heavenly Mother has promised at Fatima we will have peace in the world. The Shepherds of Christ Movement is centered in the consecration asked for at Fatima.

The fire of His love will spread across the earth with the help of the Shepherds of Christ Movement - His Heart will reign.

We are trying to spread the consecration to the priests, sisters, brothers, lay people, and children. Hearts will fervently love God. When they consecrate their hearts to Jesus and Mary, we will be more and more one body in Him. We will be one, happy family as the Father intends - loving God and one another.
