931 years ago, Catholics heard the call of Blessed Pope Urban II to take up arms to defend Catholics in the Mid-East who were being butchered for their Catholic Faith by Muslims, hell bent on conquest.

Today, it is obvious, that Catholics need to organize their own defense, since the rulers of so many Secular States are hell bent on doing nothing or denying the problem.

Here the the Ordo Militaris Catholicus, we are working to establish a religious association of Catholics dedicated to the lawful defense of Catholics wherever they are persecuted, inasmuch as we can do this by means of legitimate, state-sanctioned military and police actions: that is, a true Military Order, like those of old.

There are 3 ways of Joining our Order

1. Joining the Chivalric Society: Ordo Militaris Catholicus

First of all, we invite Catholics and Christians and all men and women of good will to consider joining our Chivalric Soceity, Ordo Militaris Catholicus, which is the support-arm of our Order. Members of this Chivalric Society join and belong by making a monthly pledge and receiving honorary dignities and member services from our corporations. — To become a member, go to our Pledge SupportPage and make a pledge.

Lay men and women who are members of our Chivalric Society are extern members ex officio of our Military Order.  The reason for the distinction between the groups is to enable the members of our Chivalric Society able to join and participate from all nations on the earth, even those where our Military Order may not be able to operate. The vast majority of our members belong to this level of membership.

2. Joining the Sovereign Catholic Military Order of Saint Louis IX, Crusader King

The Sovereign Catholic Military Order of Saint Louis IX, Crusader King, is a Catholic religious order of Knights: men consecrated by vows and promises to the service of Jesus Christ and Holy Mother Church in the greatest corporal work of mercy possible: aiding Christians who are being persecuted unto death.

Members of our religious Order must be men who are Catholic, willing and capable of participating militarily, as Members of the Order. They must be in good health and sound mind, of military age or older, and be willing to promise to observe the commands of the leadership of the Order and dedicate themselves for the rest of their lives to this vocation. They can be either full members, who takes vows of poverty, chastity and obedience unto death: forsaking marriage career, wealth and donating all their material riches and property to the Order. Or they can be married or un-married members, who serve by a promise over several or more years, in the military or logistic aspects of the order.

For both groups of men we recommend reading Our Sacred Call to Arms and our Holy Rule and dedicating yourself to a serious and sober consideration of what Jesus Christ means to you and to what extent you believe the Lord is calling you to serve Him in the defense of His people. For more information and to speak to our Vocation Director, contact our offices by phone or email (info@ourdomain.name) and leave information for a call back.

3. Volunteering at Ordo Militaris Inc.

Third, we are seeking men and women, with or without military experience, as Auxiliaries of the Order, as the need requires, who are willing and capable, to assist in all other aspects of support, recruitment, financing, fundraising, publicity, accounting, legal aspects and political relations, because it will be necessary to do all these things in an orderly and unified manner to enable the Order to be an effective force for defending Catholics wherever this is needed and possible according to the local laws.

In such wise, by joining the forces of willing Catholics from all over the world, together, into one association with a common purpose, both military and support of the troops, a modern Catholic Military Order, in compliance with all national and international law, can effectively attain its goal: the defense and liberation of Catholics oppressed out of hatred of their faith.

For our Membership Corporation, Ordo Militaris, Inc., we are currently looking to recruit:

1. Military and ex-military, who are still in good enough health for combat & security missions, overseas, whether officers or enlisted.  These we vet for service of the Order as hired personnel.
