Founded in
1945, canonically erected in the Cathedral of Chartres ( Christmas, 1964, Our
Lady Underground ), the Militia Sanctae Mariae, the regular and militant company
of the Knights of Our Lady, is a Roman Catholic confraternity.
|
In
creating the MSM the founder expressedly wanted to form a
new chivalry adapted to our times, by reviving the spirit of
Christian knighthood in its purest and most universal form,
including its consecration to Our Lady in a very special
way.
The
Order of the Knights of Our Lady gathers together Catholic
men and women, unmarried and married, concerned to carry out
their family or professional duties in a Christian way,
being conscious that their lay state calls them to
evangelise society. Such a variety of people finds its unity
in a shared rule of life, in the struggle to build the
Kingdom of God, in the love of Our Lady and in fidelity to
the Church. |
