Information on the Militia Immaculatæ is presented at the Angelus Press Conference which takes place each year in Kansas City, MO. The Traditional Franciscan Sisters,who are located in Kansas City,have as their apostolate the promotion of the MI and are themselves Militia members. At this national event, these good sisters are responsible for managing the MI Table.
Recently, from August 8–19th, Fr. Mark Stafki led a group of Pilgrims on an M.I. Pilgrimage to visit the many holy shrines in Poland and Prague. What a great grace to drink of the spirituality of the M.I.’s beloved founder, St. Maximilian Kolbe! It was also a grace to see the fruits of the SSPX apostolate in Eastern Europe which were cultivated under Fr. Karl Stehlin. Many are grateful to receive the benefits of belonging to the Militia Immaculatæ which was resurrected in its Traditional form and in the original spirit of St. Maximilian Kolbe by Fr. Stehlin!
Each year, the Knights of the Immaculata in Post Falls have a Novena of Masses offered for the Reverend Fathers of the M.I. Without the Chaplains’ continued work and preaching, the MI could not continue! In return, the Knights have received gifts of Masses for the year from Fr. Dennis McDonald who began the Militia Immaculatae in the US on December 8th, 2005.
Also in Post Falls is a monthly Holy Hour in front of the Blessed Sacrament where members pray for the intentions of the M.I. This includes ones’ own sanctification
and the conversion of others through Mary Immaculate. Since May 13th of this year, the Monthly Holy Hour has been dedicated to the recitation of the 15 decade Rosary in honor of Our Lady of Fatima. This will continue through October 13th, 2017 in a spirit of preparation for 100th year Anniversary of the Fatima Apparitions. Fr. Stehlin has encouraged the Knights to do all they can to prepare for this Centenary with prayers and sacrifices in a spirit of reparation.
Updates,prayer intentions as well as messages from Fr. Stehlin are available by emails sent from Mr. David Metzger (dmetzger@clink-inc.com) for anyone who wishes to subscribe to these emails. The Militia Immaculatae is making its presence felt in the US, bringing the hope that Our Lady will grant many graces to the souls dedicated to her honor and glor
