"Month of Mary"
I smelled roses; very faint at 11:00 P.M. in our home.
Please Note: On May 2nd, 1988, the messages from the Blessed Mother and Jesus began to change into archaic language with "Thee's" and "Thou's". Also, the wording of the Messages seemed to be changing. I sensed a kind of change that was about to take place. I believe that the messages were transforming in this way in preparation for what was to come soon afterwards. I began receiving messages that I believe were from "GOD, THE FATHER."

Fifth Monday of Easter
Saint Athanasius
Message:
I do heareth thy prayers. I do seeth thy tears. My Love is with thee always unto the ends of time. Yes, My Son's most Holy Heart, most Holy Blood. For this He sayeth unto thee again, "For My yoke be upon thy shoulders for it is light of burden."
Rejoice! Rejoice, all peoples! Rejoice! Thy heart no longer weepest for there is truly a Savior. One victorious over death. Come unto Me all who are weeping. Come unto Me all who are weary. Friend, rest within My most Sacred Heart, most Sacred Blood. For with Me thou shall find everlasting life.
"Behold! Behold thy Savior watches for thee. Fear not, for I am with thee for all the ends of the earth. Glory! Hosanna unto all people! Upon all tongues let My Name resound!"
Jesus. Jesus. Jesus. My beloved Son.

There is a light smell of roses in the apartment. We gave a salutation and Rosary to the Blessed Mother of God.
Wednesday, May 4th, 1988
Mark is up early today in search and hopes of a new job with the hospital. Mark went into the Chapel to pray and ask the Lord for help. Mark said that while he was praying, he could smell roses! In the hospital Chapel, there are no roses.
It has been laid on my heart by the Blessed Virgin to confront my niece on her personal life. She has been laying on my heart. So I gathered all the information from St. John Neumann and also a Medjugorje paper. A personal note from the Virgin Mary was telling my niece to make a change in her life. She was to move in with her mother, or afflictions would multiply on her the longer she hesitated in obeying the requests of the Blessed Virgin. With this, an assortment of food was also delivered, because we were told by her family that she has not been eating well lately. I hurried off to do as I was told. Joseph was still sleeping, but I gathered him up and went about our work. When I got to the street, I was unsure of the house. I asked Mary for a sign. She told me to look for roses. Sure enough, there were roses at the house where my niece was staying. I tried to visit with her, but she would not answer the door. I knocked hard and long, but I decided it was all a defeated cause. She chose not to come to the door.
I went down the street and parked the car in the shade of a tree and waited. After two hours passed, I decided to leave all the items at her neighbor's house. I went home then and took care of personal needs.
Later on that day we went to visit Sister A.B. at the hospital. Sister A.B. let Joseph see the helicopter and meet the pilots, etc. We enjoyed our visit very much. We discovered it was Sister A.B.'s birthday today. She told us that she takes an evening walk with God every day.
That evening we had Msgr. James over for a visit. In our visiting I asked Msgr. Joe James about the Messages I have been receiving and the different happenings in our lives. Msgr. enlightened areas which were dark and unsure. I slept very well this night because he gave me a new insight on things I knew nothing about. Thank you, Msgr. Joe James. Thank You, Lord.

Roses are smelled strongly in our apartment this evening. It lingers a long time there. We gave a salutation and a Rosary to the Blessed Virgin Mary. We also did a Rosary in the St. John Neumann Chapel, sang songs, and prayed.
Friday, May 6th, 1988
This is the first Friday of the month. I reflected on the Sacred Heart of Jesus and I will pray a Litany. At 4:45 P.M., there was another confrontation with my niece. I was informed by the Lord to give another warning. I was also told to get the remaining flier from the closet. The flier says, "CONVERT"; that people will only find happiness through the Lord Jesus. Again, I attempted to do what was a failure the last time. I placed the flier on my niece's car. I began to leave, but was told by the "VOICE", to blow my car horn. I did. Close to ten seconds. (It seemed a long time) I don't know why I did it, but it was done. As I left to go back home, I saw the whole family outside the house looking at the flier message. I felt the task was done, and many eyes saw the warning from the Lord.
That evening when the mail came in, there was a letter from Mrs. Willhelm who lived in Nazareth. Mrs. Willhelm requested a copy of all the monthly messages from our Parish of St. John Neumann's. She also sent me a booklet with much information about the Blessed Virgin Mary and her Son, Jesus. The Spirit came upon me and asked if I would continue to do the Lord's work. I said, "Yes" and I said a Rosary and Litany to Jesus.
Saturday, May 7th, 1988
Went to the Chapel to spend time in prayer. (Night) Smelled roses. Our family gave a gift to the Lord, to His people by tithing gifts of "Holy Cards."
Sunday, May 8th, 1988
Went to Church this morning as a family. Mark had this day off from work. I received a message from Mary, the Blessed Virgin and from Jesus her Son. Mark helped me on Jesus' message. I almost had forgotten it. We hurried off to Church, driving past speed limit to get to Msgr. Joe James before Mass.
Please Note: This Message is to all parents, especially to mothers.

Sixth Sunday of Easter
Mother's Day
Message from Our Lord Jesus and His Mother Mary:
This is what Mary wants us to recite in the "Hail Mary;" the words of the Blessed Virgin's "Ave Maria."
"Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners. Send forth the grace of Thy flame of love to all mankind, now and in the hour of our death. Amen."
The Virgin Mary is asking and calling to all of us to keep Thursdays and Fridays as days of special graces, to regard them as days of atonement of her divine son.
The way to achieve this is with the holy hour of the family. During this hour of reconciliation, you should say various prayers the rosary for example and sing hymns.
Begin the worship by making the Sign of the Cross five times in view of my son's five holy wounds. Reflect on Jesus' shoulder wound which was his most grievous wound...which tore his flesh and bared his bone. Carry his cross! Finish it in the same way, five Signs of the Cross!
Continue the worship with spiritual readings. Light a candle in remembrance of my promise. Urgent! Keep a holy hour in your family. Thursdays and Fridays should be special days of grace. On these days, make special reparation to my divine son. Visit the Blessed Sacrament. The hour could be spent filled with singing of hymns, meditation, various prayers and the rosary. Begin adoration with his five holy wounds - shoulder. Make the sign of five crosses.
If there are many in reconciliation, I, the Blessed Mother, will be satisfied with as little as five minutes per person!
The deeper the prayer, the more Satan will be blinded! Soon! Do these things for me!
Our Blessed Mother asks of all of us:
Try to hold these reconciliation sessions in twos or threes because where two or three meet in the name of my son, he will be there. More, if possible.
You should also try to make a practice during the day of crossing yourselves five times, one after the other, while offering yourselves into the mercy of the Lord. This will bring you nearer to the eternal Father and your heart will be filled with grace. Start this as soon as possible. Urgent, Please! Mary is asking it from all of us to show our love and devotion, beginning the 12th and 13th of May and continuing from then on!
Messages to parents - mother and fathers - from our Lord Jesus
Jesus said, "Let it be known to others, my child, that without faith and trust, no other virtue can take root in you. It is the foundation of the holy cause for which we prepare ourselves. And begin making this known very soon.
"All of you mothers who bring pleasure to my heart, the merit of your work is no less than the deeds of the priest in the highest office. You parents, you mothers, understand the sublime vocation I entrusted to you. You are destined to populate my kingdom. From your hearts, from your bosoms, every step of my church comes forth. My kingdom grows according to how you mothers take care of the created souls. You have the greatest responsible work. This work I laid in your hands to lead the multitude of souls to salvation. To this, your responsible work, I give my special blessing!"
From Jesus Christ.

After Mass, we went to get a donut, congregated some, and went home. 12:30 noon, Mark had to go to work at the cafeteria. Joseph and I went to the Constancio family gathering and visited awhile. We talked over many concerns and messages of the Blessed Virgin and then went home after a long visit and pleasant evening. The Lord told me later that night to send a letter to my niece's mother. The Lord spoke of this being a third and last warning. I didn't really know how to react to all this, but I followed the inner "VOICE" within me and gave all glory to the Lord, Jesus. All that I do is for the Lord Jesus. I seek NO glory or recognition for myself. Let my name perish, but let all praise and glory go to God and His Beloved Son, JESUS. Mary, Jesus, I love you, save souls!

I had a dream last night and envisioned the Blessed Virgin of Guadalupe. Her light radiated all around her! I could see the rays of sunlight all around her and her hands were together as if in prayer. I awoke with this image of her in my mind. I didn't understand it, but I felt sure as the day passed on, my eyes would be opened. I began the day mailing information of Medjugorje papers to different people. I spent most of the day at this. I passed on all that I could until there was no more to give.
I was told to go to a house I knew of long ago when I was first engaged to be married. I finally found the house and the woman who had lived there was Mrs. Irene C. Who did my wedding flowers and had a deep love for the Blessed Virgin Mary. I went to her door to give her the information about our Parish, St. John Neumann, and Medjugorje. The "VOICE" told me Irene was dead. She had died and no longer lived there. Mary, the Blessed Mother comforted me with the knowledge that she was in the arms of Jesus Her Son and Herself, the Blessed Virgin Mary. I asked, "Why am I here, then? If this woman is dead, why did I come here?" The Blessed Virgin Mary told me to search and I would find the answer.
I stood there, my eyes looking; trying to see a sign. It then came to my attention, the beloved Virgin's picture was on the door! The very vision which I dreamed of the night before. "Our Lady of Guadalupe." Though no one was home, I left all the contents of information in a folder on the people's door.
My mission done, I went home. I was very tired. I tried to make Rosary, but while in the shower, Mother Mary told me to be absent this Monday from Rosary. This was to give acknowledgment to Mr. Mike Slate that he was a humble man, and would receive a message as he had been doing for quite some time. Very well. I did as I was told.
It was a trying day for me and my family. Our tempers flared some and our spirits were low. Gene Irlbeck came from Happy, Texas to hear the Monday messages and to say the Rosary. Mark and Gene went together this Monday and left me and Joseph behind. The message was given by Mary Constancio and Mike Slate.

Monday Messages of Mother Mary:
(During the Fifteen Decades of the Rosary in the Church) Listen, my children, with ears opened to hear that which only your hearts can see! Know, my children, that I can see that sorrow with which you suffer, that sorrow with which you rejoice. For only through my son can you experience any joy at all.
My children, my whole purpose in blessing your church is to bring joy. To bring peace. To bring love. To bring mercy from God, our almighty Father. I ask you again to reach into the very depths of your soul and seek to whom you give glory, to whom you give homage. The time is coming when I will shine my eyes on all those who believe. The time is coming when you shall see my eyes. Be prepared, my children, for our Father has done great things for you and much more will he do.
How much must I plead with you to bring others with you? I say again to spread my message. My message of mercy, my message of hope for all those who have none.
Fight the enemy, my children, with weapons that I have already sent you: prayer, fasting, communion and reconciliation. Pray with petitions and prayers of all sorts, especially those prayers that have been inspired by the love of my son Jesus. Continue to ask the Lord for mercy every day, every moment, for great is our Father's mercy. Great is his compassion and unending is his love.
I plead with you again: Bring your families, bring those whom I send you to bring, for they are all my children.
Blessed are they who desire to please my son...those who desire to please our almighty Father who rules over his people with love and mercy.
Please bring others with you. Thank you for being here tonight. Now take this message to all who believe - even to those who do not, that they may believe. This is my love letter to you. May all the fruits of the Holy Spirit be among you. May the fruit of all women's wombs here tonight be blessed to bring forth the peace of the world.
(During the Sorrowful Mysteries) My children, this month is a special month in which you take time to give me homage. Take time this month also to treat others with that special love and tender compassion and concern which I also give you.
Do not be too busy to take time to pray. To love!
Mary Constancio, messenger
My dear children, thank you for being here tonight. I prayed for you all today that you would have the strength and courage to be here. I know that many of you had many trials today. Be strong, my children. My Son needs you. Pray for strength and perseverance. You have been called to continue the work which he started here on earth.
My children, be aware that you will be under attack. That you will be tempted. But remember that my son and I are praying for you. And when you feel tempted or are aware of the evil one, pray to my son for strength, for he will not forsake you.
Go with peace and my love, my children.
Mike Slate, messenger
(First Recorded Message)
I personally felt Mike's message was like Mother Mary talking to me. Our day had been trying and hard. I know this was certainly a comfort to my family as well as to many others. All praise and glory to the Lord Jesus Christ!
May of 1988
Please Note: The Blessed Mother wanted the messengers: Mary Constancio,
Theresa Fleischman (former Werner) and Mike Slate to start meeting on Wednesdays with Msgr. Joseph James and his Pastoral Assistant Ms. Wynn, with the guidance of prayer and the aid of the Holy Spirit. It was decided that Ms. Wynn’s place would be best because it was located closer to the Church and to Msgr. James' work and Rectory. It was through these particular meetings that future events, prophecies and secret prophesies were given to Theresa.
Tuesday, May 10th, 1988
I received a message from the Blessed Virgin through the Heavenly Father this morning, that publication should be given in the Lubbock AJ for encouraging more attendance at the Rosary for Monday nights; not only calling our own Parish, but prayers and devotions from all parishes of every denomination and every faith. All of God's children are equal and there is no partiality or favoritism. We are all of the family of God, the Almighty.
Please Note: This message was given to Msgr. James and to my knowledge is still in his possession or locked away for safekeeping.
Joseph and I went to Casa Ole' today for a quick lunch break and from there I called Ms. Wynn's place. Msgr. James was having lunch and it was at this moment I told Msgr. James about the message I had received that morning. Msgr. James told me that we are all going to meet at Ms. Wynn’s house today at 1:00 P.M. I told Msgr. that I would be there with Joseph. When I hung the phone up, I was told by the Blessed Mother to enjoy my lunch and to relax with Joseph. I am to be patient, for this was a test as well as an act of obedience to God.
When it's close to one o'clock, Joseph and I arrived at Ms. Wynn's house. We are greeted warmly and Ms. Wynn finds crayons and a coloring book for Joseph. She also gathers little blocks for Joseph to play with; always a final touch with a little snack or a cool drink of lemonade or tea. Finally, all arrived and gather in the kitchen around Ms. Wynn's round table. I deliver the message to Msgr. Joe James (which was written on paper) at our Group Meeting. We all decide to pray over this urgent note and we all are concerned and in question due to the overpowering tone. I do recall how Mary Constancio said she felt the message seemed sound and correct. She sensed a similar feeling from the Blessed Virgin herself. Msgr. decides to pray more on the message and to discern it more deeply. (Note: message on May 10th, 1988.)
Many of the private messages that I received were often ignored by Msgr. Joe James. He would always use the excuse that he wanted to discern it more deeply and therefore many of the messages were ignored or forgotten. I will include these forgotten and ignored messages at the end of this book.
Msgr. Joseph James, Ms. Wynn, Mary Constancio, Theresa Fleischman (former Werner), and Mike Slate begin our praises to the Heavenly Father. Within the depth of prayer, we begin to experience visions. Each of us in turn tell of what we see. There are multitudes of people gathered around the Church fountain. There is hardly enough room to stand or sit. People are calling out. There are visions of roses, the Pope blessing the fountain, the Infant of Prague, the Blessed Virgin herself and flowers everywhere! All of a sudden, a mighty force of WIND descends into the kitchen where we all were!
Please Note: There was no way wind could come into Ms. Wynn’s house like that. Her doors were closed and there was only a small opening in one of her kitchen windows.
