Militia Immaculatae (St. Maximilian Kolbe)

Become a Knight of the Immaculate Virgin Mary by joining the Militia Immaculatae, founded by St. Maximilian Kolbe in 1917. Learn the object of the M.I., conditions of joining, and the means of being a member. This book includes the origin and history of the M.I., Explanatory Notes by St. Maximilian Kolbe himself, Indulgences granted to the M.I., and the Ceremony of Enrollment to the M.I

Our principle motive is to help the greatest possible number of souls to be united with the Sacred Heart of Jesus through the mediation of the Immaculata. "It should not be viewed as just one organization among many others; rather, it ought to penetrate into the depths of all other organizations. The essence of the M.I. consists of belonging to the Immaculata unconditionally, irrevocably, unreservedly, and entirely... The object of the M.I. is to strive for the conversion of sinners, heretics, schismatics, etc., and especially of Freemasons, as well as for the sanctification of all, under the protection and through the intercession of the Immaculate Virgin." (St. Maximilian Kolbe)
"Isn't it beautiful, this ideal of life? The battle to conquer the whole world, the hearts of all men and of each one in particular beginning with oneself... Our strength consists of recognizing our own stupidity, weakness and misery, and entrusting ourselves entirely to the goodness and power of the Immaculata." (St. Maximilian Kolbe)
