Way of Life
Community of Love Crucified
The vocation of the Love Crucified Community is to live passionately His love revealed at the Cross. There we receive the gift of His thirst, His gaze, His tears, His radical love which holds nothing back. Now He calls us to respond.
The Lord has given our Community this standard:
“ Suffer all with Me, no longer two but ONE, in my sacrifice of love"
As brothers and sisters we enter into a covenant with Christ and with each other to live fully this love in the heart of the Church, according to our spirituality (The Simple Path to Union with God) and mission.
At first, commitments may seem to be a burden, but the Lord promised: "My yoke is easy and my burden is light." -Matthew 11:30. "Sanctity does not consist first of all in doing extraordinary things, but in letting God act" -Pope Francis. God's grace makes this way of life liberating and joyful through love. It disposes us to receive a new life in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Our way of life embraces the following commitments:
1. Lives centered on the Eucharist
2. Marian Consecration
3. Docility to the Holy Spirit
4. Live The Simple Path to Union with God: Our Spiritual Formation Book
5. Victims of Love + Offering life for others; for priest
6. 5 Stones: Humility, Purity, Simplicity, Trust, Courage
7. Repentance and Conversion
8. Community Life
9. Obedience to Mother Church
10. Fidelity to our state in life
I propose to do ever what is most perfect. I propose to seek in all things Jesus and His Cross, in conformity with His holy will. I propose in my actions to pursue the interests of Christ and not my own. ...I will never be disquieted should circumstances prevent me from observing my 'Rule of life.' I will go on tranquilly. I will be flexible in the face of difficulties, humbly... then onward, ever onward! -Extract from her "Rule of life", Ven. Concepción Cabrera de Armida, Aug 21, 1894
1. Lives Centered on the Eucharist
The Eucharist is Christ, our life, the source and summit of all we are and do.
We seek to participate in Holy Mass daily, if possible.
At Holy Mass we unite with Jesus as His victim souls in His sacrifice of love to the Father. We go to die to self and receive new life in Him. We become living hosts. We offer ourselves with Jesus to the Father after the consecration of the Precious Blood with this prayer.
We commit to a minimum of once a week of adoration before the Blessed Sacrament to listen, adore, praise, intercede, give thanks, and accompany and CONSOLE Jesus and Mary in their suffering for souls.
For their work, prayers and apostolic endeavours, their ordinary married and family life, their daily labour, their mental and physical relaxation, if carried out in the Spirit, and even the hardships of life if patiently borne-all of these become spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ (cf. 1 Pt 2:5). During the celebration of the Eucharist these sacrifices are most lovingly offered to the Father along with the Lord’s body. Thus as worshipers whose every deed is holy, the lay faithful consecrate the world itself to God. John Paul II

2. Marian Consecration
To come to the most perfect intimate union of love with Christ—victim united to Victim— we need to consecrate ourselves to Mary, Mother and Bride, with the understanding and abandonment that she will bring us to the foot of the Cross. We commit to be forever "Totus Tuus" (All yours).
See “Importance of Consecration” letter from Lourdes Pinto to community>>
33 Days to Morning Glory -Preparation to Marian Consecration. by Fr Michael E. Gaitley, MIC; Marian Press.
Renew our consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary
Daily Recitation of the Rosary
3. Docility to the Holy Spirit
We live in the Spirit attentive to God and submitting to Him everything we do. We ask of Him in every situation, “Lord what do you want of me?” We trust in the Holy Spirit and invoke Him constantly.
See “Importance of Consecration” letter from Lourdes Pinto to community>>
“Yet there is no greater freedom than that of allowing oneself to be guided by the Holy Spirit, renouncing the attempt to plan and control everything to the last detail, and instead, letting him enlighten, guide and direct us, leading us wherever he wills.” Pope Francis p. 13
We welcome the Holy Spirit as our teacher and guide through living the Simple Path. It is He who leads us through the passage -- from the feet of Jesus crucified to receive the gift of self-knowledge, into the Sacred Heart of Jesus and brings us into the unity of the Most Holy Trinity.
“God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit which has been given to us” (Rom 5:5). Nevertheless, it is not enough to know the Spirit; we must welcome Him as the guide of our souls, as the “Teacher of the interior life” who introduces us to the Mystery of the Trinity, because He alone can open us up to faith and allow us to live it each day to the full.” Pope Benedict XVI, XXXIII World Youth Day, 2008
4. Live The Simple Path to Union with God: Our Spiritual Formation Book
Each Mother of the Cross (MOC) and Missionary of the Cross (MC) must be willing to allow The PATH to lead them through the painful purification and healing of their hearts into the depth of self- knowledge. Each person must persevere to:
Follow Christ daily to the Cross,
To die to self—to what we have become that we are not,
To make ourselves vulnerable and stripped of our masks and false identity
And suffer ALL with Christ, in order to be transformed into Love.
5. Victims of Love
Our life is an offering of love. Our crosses, including the injustices we suffer, as well as the daily duties, are powerful when done with great love and united with Christ. God waits for the FIAT that signals our total surrender. We don’t just offer something; we offer ourselves without reserve, our entire being, our will, our heart, our body and soul, one with Him. This is to be with Christ victims of love.
It is a victim soul's 'yes' that 'stirs into flame' the power of the Holy Spirit so that the Holy Spirit can lead a docile and willing soul to die with Me. It is this voluntary death that brings the soul to new life…I continue to thirst for love, but it is only the love of My victim souls that satisfies My thirst… Therefore, bring Me many victim souls. 2/1/11 Simple Path #124 p.331
See “Victim of Love” by Fr Jordi Rivero>>
6. 5 Stones: Humility, Purity, Simplicity, Trust and Courage
The MOC and MC must be committed to growing in these five virtues as we persevere in living the Simple Path and taking to heart the teachings of this community.
Virtues Needed as Warriors of Love
My little one, the time draws near. You hold the sword of the Spirit in the mission given to you. My family of LC are My warriors of love that will defeat the dragon in the decisive battle that draws near. Be ready to approach this evil in the same way that David approached Goliath. You will conquer the dragon in your littleness and purity because it is.
God who is with you. You must not fear and believe with the innocence and zeal of David… You each must also approach the battle with five stones.
1. First, the stone of humility, possessing the perfect knowledge of your nothingness and of My power and majesty.
2. Second, the stone of purity, purity of mind, heart, intention, word, desire…
3. Third, simplicity, detached from all, most especially from your ego.
4. Fourth, trust perfectly abandoned to My will.
5. Fifth, courage, courage rooted in love of Me to be perfectly obedient to My commands.
These stones are your weapons for battle, for the dragon will not be defeated according to the standards of the world but in the Light of Love… 1/18/12 Simple Path #148 p. 436
7. Repentance and Conversion
As Love Crucified, we are committed to go daily to the Cross to kiss the feet of Jesus crucified and beg the Spirit for the gift of self-knowledge, so that we can come in truth to know our sins, wounds and disordered tendencies. It is then, through this self-awareness, that we receive the gift of repentance.
Repentance is the gift of God that serves to pry open the hardened human heart so that My seeds of conversion can grow. Repentance is the Sword of the Spirit that opens the darkness within the human heart to be filled with God’s Light of truth, and the truth sets you free.
To live in repentance is to live clothed in the knowledge of who you are, which is misery, and the knowledge of who I Am, which is Love and Mercy.
To live in repentance is to live in the freedom of living in the embrace of Abba, Our Father.
Tell My souls to seek true repentance at the foot of My Cross and the power of My Love Crucified will set them free to live in My peace and the joy of My promise. 2/18/18
The soul that lives wrapped in the gift of knowledge grows in true humility and is then able to advance in My path on the wings of the Holy Spirit… It is here, at My feet, that you must persevere… 12/12/11 Simple Path #10 p.40. see full message >>
Confession: We are encouraged to go regularly to confession. There is no better way to make progress on our spiritual journey than by returning in humble repentance and love to God’s infinite mercy.

The mission of MC and MOC
Cf. Luke 10:1-12
My little one, you are preparing the way for My Second Coming. It is My hidden martyrs of love, crucified through Me, with Me, and in Me, that will usher in the reign of My Kingdom on earth.
The Gospel says:
“No purse” means be Poor in spirit;
“No sandals” means -detached from the things of this world, a life of sacrifice, hardships, difficulties, discomfort, penance. (I had the image of people walking up the mountain in Medjugorje barefoot)
“No walking stick” -because I will sustain you, strengthen you, support you. I will lead you on this journey.
-
My Missionaries of the Cross must preach repentance again, as did John the Baptist.
-
They must preach My love crucified, bringing souls to know intimately My love.
-
They must be detached completely from their egos, knowing themselves as nothing and miserable.
-
They must be willing to speak the truth about the darkness within My priesthood.
-
They must be willing to live rejected, cast out, and even stoned to death.
I conversed with Jesus, saying that I do not know how this will be. I see again the image of the red carpet-the women covered in the Precious Blood of Jesus. "My Lord, how do the lay missionaries of the cross live this mission?"
They are priests within their families, and they live in the world. They will need great courage to be My light amid the darkness. My daughter, tell my daughters to persevere, suffering all with Me, solely for love of Me.
1/14/18
Who we’ve become but not who we are
This is who he (or she) has become, but it is not who he (or she) is. I see him (her) as who he (she) is and suffer who he (she) has become.

The mission of the 12
My little one, I have chosen you to bear fruit for the Kingdom of God on earth. The mission is not easy, for the ways of God are never the ways of the world. All who are chosen by God to fulfill His plan on earth are hated by some, rejected by others, ill-treated, persecuted, for I came upon the earth to set one against another, for the ways of God will never be accepted nor appreciated by those who live for the things of this world. You have been asked by God to bring Him victim souls. A victim soul must fix his eyes on Christ, must desire with all his being to become one with his Master, and must be willing to learn from Him and imitate Him. He must be willing to fight against all his disordered desires. This requires certain disciplines for my disciples:
1) “Take no gold, nor silver, nor copper”- that means detached from the riches of this world, trusting that God will provide.
2) “No bag for your journey,” which means that My disciples must allow My spirit to detach them from all disordered attachments. (my Lord, how do we know what is a disordered attachment?) Anything that weakens your desire for Me distracts you from loving Me, and takes your gaze from Me.
3) “Nor two tunics”- My disciples must live simply as I did, poor, never in excess.
4) “Nor sandals” – a life dedicated to sacrificial love, penance, renunciation.
5) “Nor a staff” – My disciples lean on Me; I become their support; I lead the way.
My disciples wear My yoke-the wood of the Cross, united to Me. I am their All. My disciples are the men and women consumed in love and desire for Me. They choose to live this way of life for love of Me and the consuming desire to be made perfect- which is to become Love. Only in this way will My disciples reflect the face and light of God in the world. These are my victim souls that possess the power of God on earth.

Second Coming
I have chosen you, My Little one, to proclaim My Love Crucified to the ends of the world. You, My prophet of these end times, will not be understood, received, or accepted by the vast majority of My people, but your faithfulness to fulfill My Will will be accepted, honored, and blessed by The Father who sees all and knows all. The few, My little ones, who accept, receive, and honor this mission given to you, will be blessed by our Heavenly Father. He will multiply your lives given and broken through Me, with Me, and in Me. His power and His glory will fill your small sacrifices, united to My perfect sacrifice of love, to raise up a holy priesthood to usher in My Second Coming. My Second Coming will come through Mary, with Mary, and in Mary, for it is My Eucharistic Reign. My little one, the New Pentecost, will be the Reign of My Mother as one with My Eucharistic Reign united to the Father. This will be the new era of peace in the world – The Kingdom of Heaven on earth. This is the great mission given to you and the few that respond. Great, will your glory be in heaven. Persevere, My little one, for you have found favor with the Father in the Son.
St Bernard:
We know that there are three comings of the Lord. The third lies between the other two. It is invisible, while the other two are visible. In the first coming, He was seen on earth, dwelling among men… In the final coming, all flesh will see the salvation of our God, and they will look on him whom they pierced. The intermediate coming is a hidden one; in it, only the elect see the Lord within their own selves, and they are saved. In his first coming, Our Lord came in our flesh and in our weakness; in this middle coming, He comes in spirit and power; in the final coming, He will be seen in glory and majesty… In case someone should think that what we say about this middle coming is sheer invention, listen to what our Lord himself says: If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him. —Liturgy of the Hours, Vol I, p. 169

I need souls willing to live in the world but not of the world
My little one, it is not the way that I am seeking for these end times. Satan will be defeated by heroic acts of love united to My perfect sacrifice of love. I need souls willing to live in the world but not of the world. Souls who receive the brokenness of other souls and suffer for them as one with Me solely for love. Souls immersed in the darkness of this world to fight as My soldiers of Light against the demons of hell. These are My hidden victim souls in the world living through Me, with Me, and in Me. My little one, Satan will try many tactics to move your heart from the desire of My Heart… I am forming you(plural) as My warriors of the great battle.
2/18/18
Repentance is the Sword of the Spirit
Repentance is the gift of God that serves to pry open the hardened human heart so that My seeds of conversion can grow. Repentance is the Sword of the Spirit that opens the darkness within the human heart to be filled with God’s Light of truth, and the truth sets you free.
To live in repentance is to live clothed in the knowledge of who you are, which is misery, and the knowledge of who I Am, which is Love and Mercy.
To live in repentance is to live in the freedom of living in the embrace of Abba, Our Father.
Tell My souls to seek true repentance at the foot of My Cross, and the power of My Love Crucified will set them free to live in My peace and the joy of My promise.

I need you
1st Saturday MOC cenacle.
A statue of Jesus from the Trinitarian order depicts Him sentenced to death with His hands bound. It was brought to the cenacle by Zilkia, and we prayed for persecuted Christians, all the suffering forgotten souls, and those bound, primarily to porn.
I need you. I need each of you to bring My tenderness in mercy to the world. It is love manifested through the tenderness of God that has the power to touch the hardened hearts of many souls. My little ones, learn from Mary, the Mother of God, and your Mother. Her tenderness is manifested in Her silence as the love and mercy of God radiate from her gaze. Her gaze is the gaze of God, and her gaze has the power to penetrate the darkness of Satan. God the Father desires that each of you become the gaze of Mary upon the earth.
"How, my Lord, do we become Mary’s gaze?"
By learning to live My tenderness through silence. My little ones, the eyes are the window of the heart, and it is I who dwell in your hearts. You must believe that through your fiats to be My victim souls, I have taken My abode in your hearts. Allow My merciful love to radiate through your gaze through the power of silence. The power of God radiated through Mary through the power of her silence. Remember what I taught you about silence.

Remnant victims of love will crush the head of Satan and usher in an era of peace
A time is coming when the justice of God will act because of His infinite mercy. If a child does not obey the kind and tender instructions of his parents, the parents, in their great love for their child, are forced to exercise their justice to protect their child. The same holds true for our beloved Father. My little one, you must be prepared for great suffering, for the rebelliousness of humanity is forcing the Father to act in His justice. The time of the great chastisement must come upon the earth because of the infinite love of the Father.
I asked Jesus, then what are His little victims of love doing if the justice of God cannot be avoided?
Trust, My little one, for God’s remnant victims of love will be the force of God, united to the Mother of God, that will crush the head of Satan and usher in an era of peace.

My gaze desires transformed souls
I need you to incarnate Myself in you so that I can touch, embrace, bless, love, and penetrate My people. Receive My gaze of the consuming fire of My Sacred Heart. My gaze desires transformed souls, souls in which it is I who live. This is My Light in the world. Tell My little mustard seed to receive My gaze of desire for them to be emptied of self so that My Blood can fill them, and I, with the Divine fire of the Spirit, can bring new life… My desire is consuming Me in agony because I find hardly any souls willing to receive the desire of My Sacred Heart. Allow Me to empty you, and I will renew the face of the earth through you. Receive the gaze of My desire tonight and RESPOND to My call.

Prepare this Advent for My second coming
Message for LC for Advent
My little ones, prepare this Advent for My second coming. You have been chosen [as were John the Baptist, St Joseph, and Mary] to prepare yourselves and many for My Eucharistic Reign through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit as in a new Pentecost. The Path has been entrusted to you as God’s gift of His Divine Mercy to prepare yourselves and the Church for what is to come. Prepare this Advent united to My Mother and St Joseph as you recommit yourselves to live with greater faithfulness and zeal The Simple Path to Union with God. This Path is a gift for My Church before the justice of God touches the earth. This Path is the preparation of My saints who have allowed their hearts and minds to be washed with the Blood of the Lamb. This Path is the preparation of the 144,000 (Rev 14:1–5) victim souls who will endure these end times and usher in the Reign of My Mother with My Eucharistic Reign. My Eucharistic Reign will be a time of peace in which My presence will be seen through My living hosts. These lights in the world will shine brightly, and many will come to know and love Me in the Eucharist, thus making My Eucharistic presence the center of their lives. I will be known, adored, and glorified in My Eucharist through the impulse of the Holy Spirit. Prepare this Advent by pondering who you are and the mission entrusted to you.
Revelations 14:1–5:
Then I looked, and lo, on Mount Zion stood the Lamb, and with Him, a hundred and forty-four thousand who had His name and His Father's name written on their foreheads. 2 And I heard a voice from heaven like the sound of many waters and like the sound of loud thunder; the voice I heard was like the sound of harpers playing on their harps, 3 and they sing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and before the elders. No one could learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from the earth. 4 It is these who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are chaste; it is these who follow the Lamb wherever he goes; these have been redeemed from mankind as first fruits for God and the Lamb, 5 and in their mouth, no lie was found, for they are spotless.

It is love that will establish the Kingdom of God on earth.
Yes, My little one, I came, yet I remain unknown by the multitude. I remain unloved, unwanted, unappreciated. For this reason, because God who came upon the world has been ignored and rejected, the justice of God must bring forth His great shake-up. Many souls are in the net of Satan’s deception and are lost for all eternity. The great shake-up, My little one, is coming upon the world. During this time of great suffering, many souls will come to know Me and receive Me through My witnesses who have been purified through the Blood of the Lamb. Do not tire of proclaiming My love crucified. Do not tire of choosing to love, for it is love, in the end, that will establish the Kingdom of God on earth.

Love challenges
A love that does not challenge is a love that has lost faith and hope and, therefore, ceases to be love.
