Introduction
The Ordo Militaris Catholicus is an international Chivalric society dedicated to bringing aid to those who are suffering persecution for their faith in Jesus Christ.. We place special emphasis on assisting Catholics and Christians who are victimized from terrorism in the strict sense of this word.
We were founded in the days following the martyrdom of Father Jacques Hamel, July 26, 2016 A.D., by Br. Alexis Bugnolo, a Franciscan hermit, and Andrew J. Baalman, a relative of Charlemagne.
In the U.S.A., the Order has founded a Montana Corporation, with the legal name, Ordo Militaris, Inc..

The Order seeks to recruit chiefly Catholic Veterans who wish to put their military skills and knowledge to service in the defense of fellow Catholics, and this principally out of a desire of fraternal charity, not personal gain. As a religious association of Catholics we aim to combine the unique aspects of military and religious service as a work of mercy towards our fellow Catholics.
About Ordo Militaris, Inc.
Following in the footsteps of the brave Catholics of old, who forsook family, home and nation to go overseas to the rescue of Christians being persecuted for their faith, we have begun our Chivalric Soceity, Ordo Militaris Catholicus, as initiative of Catholics for Christians who are being persecuted, where their defense and security requires humanitarian aid and security solutions which only those with a profound Christian faith would be motivated to provide out of charity and fraternal love.
We aim to be a non-political, transnational humanitarian effort with a distinctively Catholic ethos and spirit, providing a method of private collaboration and intervention separate from the national foreign policies of sovereign states, while working fully within the limitations of national and international laws and conventions.
While engaging principally in humanitarian relief efforts, either directly or through the provision of security solutions, Ordo Militaris Inc. intends a robust business strategy to offer our services to existing humanitarian efforts who have need of private security solutions in those areas of the world which are high risk, as the principal foundation of our business strategy.
At present, throughout the western world, there exists no such particularly Christian effort which blends security and defense with humanitarian aid, in part because classical charities or non profits are excluded from security and defense activities and programs and in part because in recent centuries the concept of security and defense as a humanitarian activity has all but been forgotten.
As part of our transnational strategy, we are currently seeking to establish subsidiaries overseas so as to increase the multifaceted advantages of an international presence and to take advantage of the unique resources and talents of Catholics who participate in our effort from throughout the Catholic world.
As a Montana Corporation directed by Catholics with deeply held religious beliefs Ordo Militaris Inc., our membership service corporation in the United States of America hopes to provide unique solutions with an extremely high ethical rigor, in an age which sees increasingly religion as a security problem not a solution. We are formed as a for profit stock corporation, so that we might have the freedom to engage in services and consulting which is not considered a charitable purpose in U.S. tax law, such as might regard the security needs of persecuted Christians world-wide. We are committed to being a corporation led by and employing principally US Military Veterans who see and wish to serve Jesus Christ as the King of Kings and the Prince of Peace. In this way, we hope to offer veterans an utterly unique way to put their skills and experience to work defending their innocent and helpless brothers in Christ the world over.
However, our Corporation does not nor has ever engaged in the sale or distribution of any military or semi-military equipment. We focus on consulting, training, education and organizing humanitarian aid appeals. We do not seek or accept contractual work with the U.S. government or with any agency thereof or that of any other government, since we do not intend to get involved in the geopolitics of any political entity.
Finally, Ordo Militaris Inc. of Montana is the successor in law to Ordo Militaris Inc. of Wyoming.*
