YEAR 2022
From 15th to 16th of January 2022, in Toronto’s SSPX Church of the Transfiguration, we celebrated a two day retreat with Fr. Stehlin. On Saturday, we had Holy Mass and three conferences mainly in Polish and the fourth one in Polish/English which also ended in the enrolment of new members of the Militia Immaculatæ. On Sunday, Father was preaching to the whole parish.
Conferences started with a short summary of current spiritual situations in the world and in the Church. Moral degradation is plain for all to see. Even the Church joined the enemy and “bows to the beast”. For a very long time Poland kept its faith only thanks to its Marian devotion. However that changed, and we all went under the devil’s “spell”; the crisis in the Church became obvious also in Poland and the nation lost its faith.
God however did not abandon us. In these “end times”, He gives us His and Our Mother again as a weapon to fight evil. Through her all graces come to us. She is our “Commanding Officer”, our General. Under her mantle we will find peace and we will save our souls.
The world is offering us desperation, anxiety, evil, discouragement. Alone we will not be able to fight them. We do not know how, when or where. Only Our Dear Mother knows that. She will intercede for us. She knows the enemy and she knows how to win. Mary is the “woman clothed in the sun” from the apocalypse, she will destroy the devil.We have no better option — only to be guided by her if we want to win. Our place is in her Army — Militia Immaculatæ; our prayers, penance and trust are in her. Only under her mantle will we save our souls and defend our families, the Church and the world. She will triumph. Even now her victory has already started — more and more priests, religious and laity are coming back to Tradition and discovering
afresh the sacraments, true morality and Holy Mass.
Glory be to God, who through the intercession of Our Blessed Mother, who as in Cana, noticed that we ran out of wine-faith, sent us Father Stehlin to encourage us to fight for our souls, to help Mary win souls for Heaven and to give us hope again.
Deo Gratias for all new members of the Militia Immaculatæ. Father Karl Stehlin enrolled into the Militia Immaculatæ 32 new Knights.
YEAR 2019
From the 20th of November to the 30th of November 2019, the Father Director of M.I. visited the Knights of the Immaculate in several Canadian cities: Toronto, Winnipeg, Welwyn, Dryden, Nanaimo and Vancouver. The purpose of the visit was not only to encourage the Knights to be more zealous, to remind them of the ideal of the M.I. and to indicate the means for its implementation, but also to welcome new Knights. Here is a general list of the new 110 Knights in Canada:
- 59 Polish Knights in Toronto (for the English-speaking Knights the adoption took place on the 6th of December),
- 13 Polish Knights and 24 English-speaking Knights in Vancouver,
- 14 Knights in Nanaimo.
During his visit, Fr Karl Stehlin delivered several conferences on the spirituality of St. Maximilian and the ideal of the M.I. In many places, meetings with the local Polish community took place and Fr. Stehlin gave lectures in Polish and the reception of the new Knights took place in Polish. To read more…
