Militia of the Immaculata
 She will crush your head (meaning the serpent). (Gen 3, 15)
You alone have conquered all heresies throughout the world. (Office of Our Lady)

The MI is imbued with the spirit of the "Society of the Mother of God" as Grignion described it. It includes laypeople and those consecrated to God. The rules are so short and simple that they can be lived in every family, every community, every religious order! In a letter to a brother in Rome in 1918,
Fr. Maximilian writes:

Dearest Brother! I am writing this card on the day of the revelation of the Immaculate Virgin Mary of the Miraculous Medal […] Our Most High Immaculate Lady has deigned, after a year of expectation and doubt and uncertainty on our part, to determine the rule for her "Militia" as follows:

I. Goal
 The conversion of sinners, heretics, schismatics, etc., but especially the Freemasons; and the sanctification of all, under the reign and through the mediation of the Immaculata.

II. Conditions

  1. Total consecration to the Immaculata, by giving oneself as an instrument into her hands.

  2. Wear the "Miraculous Medal."

III. Means

  1. Invoke the Immaculata as often as possible every day with this ejaculatory prayer: O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee, and for all who do not have recourse to thee, especially for the Freemasons.

  2. Use all legitimate means as far as possible, in the various states and circumstances of life, in the opportunities that present themselves: this is left to the zeal and prudence of each one; but the special means is the spread of the Miraculous Medal.¹

¹ The rules were written by Fr. Kolbe in the Latin language, the language of the holy Church, so to speak the eternally valid language. (See p. 12)
