Training

40. Following the example of the Crusader King, St Louis IX, Members of the Militia should be animated with an ardent and generous desire for the glory of God and the defense of our Holy Church, our Holy Father and the Christian Faithful.

41. Mindful of the traditions of our forefathers, the Members of the Militia should labour by word and deed for the truth of the Catholic Faith, for the Church and the Roman Pontiff, proving themselves their valiant defenders in everything and always. Let them be prepared to lay down their lives in this defense.

42. They should devote themselves, under the direction of their Officers, to works of physical training and the study of military subjects, either singly or collectively, according to the circumstances of the time and local necessities, and as far as their condition and capacity will permit.

Deus Vult!
