The Militia of the Immaculate (in Latin Militia Immaculat\u00e6: Knights of the Immaculate) came to us from the zealous Fr. Maximilian Mary Kolbe. In 1917, Fr. Kolbe founded at Rome, with other Franciscans the Catholic Organization of the Militia Immaculat\u00e6 (MI). At the end of the First World War, he received from his superiors the permission to establish the first City of the Immaculata or \u00ab\u00a0Niepokalan\u00f3w\u00a0\u00bb close to Warsaw (Poland).<\/p>\n

The Knights of the Immaculate is a spiritual army at the service of the Immaculata of which the goal is primarily the personal sanctification of each one by the universal mediation of Mary, by means of an apostolate towards one\u2019s neighbor. (See its Origin).<\/p>\n

\u201cShe shall crush your head.<\/strong><\/em>\u201d (Genesis 3:15).<\/span><\/p>\n

I. Goal:<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

To seek the conversion of sinners, heretics, schismatics, Jews etc. and especially the Freemasons, and obtain the sanctification of all under the protection and by the mediation of the Immaculate Virgin.<\/p>\n

II. Conditions:<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n
\"\"
Statutes of the Militia Immaculatae written by S. Maximilian Maria Kolbe<\/strong><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
    \n
  1. Total consecration of oneself to the blessed Virgin, Mary Immaculate, as an instrument in Her Immaculate Hands.<\/li>\n
  2. To wear the Miraculous Medal.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    III. Means:<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n
      \n
    1. If possible, at least once per day, pray the ejaculatory prayer: \u201cO Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee, and for all those who do not have recourse to Thee, especially for the Freemasons and for all those who are recommended to Thee.\u201d<\/strong><\/li>\n
    2. Make use of all legitimate means for the conversion and sanctification of souls according to the different states of life, conditions and circumstances of each one, and this with zeal and prudence. However, we recommend especially the distribution of the Miraculous Medal.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      N.B. These means are only indicated as suggestions, and not as an obligation. None of them obliges, not even under pain of venial sin. Our principal objective consists in this\u00a0: That the greater number of souls unite themselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, by the intercession of the Immaculata.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
