The fraternity of St. Thomas Aquinas originates from a crucial event in the saint's life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A religious congregation, called the Angelica Militia<\/strong>, a group whose purpose is the preservation of purity, or regaining it if lost but also chastity and charity.<\/strong>
This holy Militia is armed by angels who fight for the Victory of the spirit over the flesh.<\/strong>
It spread with marvelous rapidity throughout Europe, and continues to branch out today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
