On October 16, 1917, while still a student friar in Rome, St. Maximilian founded the association of Catholic faithful known as the Militia Immaculatae ( Knights of the Immaculata movement ) Its purpose was Catholic evangelism under the sponsorship of Mary, the Immaculata and Woman Full of Grace. The immediate stimulus for this was St. Maximilian's desire to combat the militant naturalism of International Freemasonry which was celebrating its second centenary that year. He has personally witnessed Masonic activists demonstrating and blaspheming under the very windows of the Vatican.
