Regional Conference and Special Men's Discussion Night

Dear Friends of Chivalry,

We are excited to host our first regional conference at the TFP St. Michael Call To Chivalry Center in Waukesha, WI. The conference will be help in the Community Room at 150 W. Main St., Waukesha, WI from 11 to 4.

To receive the speakers we are holding a special Men's Discussion Night. This is served with pizza and beer. It begins with a short presentation intended to provoke deep thoughts and stir good passions.

The topic of discussion is: If the angels lived with us on Earth, would they: a) Opt for the Benedict Option; b) Dedicate themselves to prayer; c) Throw themselves into the fight against the wickedness and snares of the devils.

Yes, it is provocative.

The Men's Discussion Night is a get-together of Catholic gentlemen who wish to discuss serious but entertaining topics in a way a Catholic gentlemen should with other Catholic gentlemen.

In case, you haven't visited the St. Michael Center yet. It is located in the River's Edge Apartment. It is a modest two bedroom apartment but furnished in a way that facilitate manly seriousness and holiness. Below is a bird's view picture of the apartment complex. We hope you can join us for one our programs before the year ends.


The speakers are Mr. Matthew Carlson and Mr. Peter Miller. Each one will add a different spice to the discussion. Please see the flyer below for more information.

TFP St. Michael Call To Chivalry Center



Dear Friends of Chivalry,

The American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family, and Property is extending its youth and outreach programs to Wisconsin. We are opening the TFP's St. Michael Call To Chivalry Center in Waukesha, WI as a base for our activities in the states of Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, Minnesota, and Michigan.

What can you expect?

For decades The American TFP has offered Call To Chivalry Camps in Pennsylvania, Louisiana, California, and the Midwest. What else can you expect from the St. Michael Center in the future? You can expect about 6 things.

1) Call To Chivalry Programs. We will be holding either a day program or a weekend program throughout the year. A day program would include fencing lessons, a talk, and activities. A weekend program could be a long hiking trip, a pilgrimage trip, or a road trip to religious or cultural sites. 

2) Fencing Lessons. We are able to instruct up to 20 students at a time in classical fencing, and 8 students at a time in Medieval swords. We can travel in any of the states in our region. These lessons are free though donations to defray the cost of travel is appreciated. Each lesson will include a talk on virtues associated with knighthood. 

3) Men's Discussion Nights. One Friday out of the month, we will have a program for men where we have lively discussions on important topics. This is available to high school students, college students, professionals, and older. Pizza, beer, and other refreshments are served free.

4) Talks and Conferences. Throughout the year, we will host talks and regional conferences on different topics. This is an excellent way for the whole family to get involved.

5) Local Rosary Rallies and Public Activities. The TFP is a pray, think, and do tank. We do a lot of public actions. This includes rosary rallies against Drag Queen Story Hours, or satanic black masses, protests against blasphemous movies, or Fr. James Martin's efforts to make the LGBT agenda accepted inside the Church without any call to conversion. This also includes participating in prolife rallies or marches for life.

6) America Needs Fatima activities. Since a big part of what the TFP does involves the America Needs Fatima program, we will be holding events for our America Needs Fatima members. This includes talks, gatherings, and home visitation program with a beautiful statue of Our Lady of Fatima.





The TFP's St. Michael Call To Chivalry Center is located at 100 Corrina Blvd., Waukesha, WI. It is a modest two-bedroom apartment. From here, we hope to expand the spirit of what makes our program appealing to everyone especially the youth: a Catholic militant spirit focused on facing the evils of the modern world.

To get here from Milwaukee, take I-94 westbound going toward Madison. Take exit 295 and go south. About 2 miles down, make a left on N. Barstow St. (There's a Mobile gas station at the corner.) Cross over the river, then make an immediate left. The Fox River will now be to your left. Rivers Edge Apartment where the center is will be the four-story building to your right. There is a circular driveway with a flag pole in the middle.

This is the main clubroom where we hold talks and foil fencing.













The TFP St. Michael Call To Chivalry Center is an outreach program to youth and families who see the value of the spirit of chivalry. We hope to be of service to everybody but above all the Queen of All Hearts. 

We ask and beg for your prayers so that the spirit of chivalry be spread through this modest venue. If that spirit is restored, then the spirit that will fight for the triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary will have begun to be restored.

If you know anyone who would like to receive an invitation to our programs, please email us at tfpmidwest@gmail.com.

St. Michael the archangel, the first knight, pray for us!

TFP Student Action Summer Caravan

At the beginning of Summer we sent invitations to a select number of young men to join a caravan sponsored by TFP Student Action, an youth outreach program of the TFP.

It was a great way to spend part of the Summer. As most young people only concerned themselves with a Summer full of pleasure, these young men wanted heroism, adventure and epicness in the service of the Catholic  cause. 

We had an excellent group of boys from the states like Colorado, New York, Illinois and Texas. They all showed much dedication and sense of sacrifice. There were no complaints even when we spent the whole day in the streets passing out flyers, engaging drivers to honk in support for life or getting into intense discussions. Many young people today would rather spend the day by the pool. Not these young men.

Enjoy the video below. It shows a little bit of the life of a caravaner.

TFP Student Action Summer Caravan, July 21

TFP Student Action Summer Caravan. How do we start a campaign?

Flags go up. Signs go up. Three Hail Mary's. And the iconic shouting of the name of the organization, Tradition, Family, Property, America, America, America.


Please pray for the young men as they spend part of their Summer defending Catholic issues instead of just lounging at home, or even worse at the beach.

The battle between the children of the virgin and the servants of the serpent

"Quis est Dominus jungatur mihi," quotes St. Louis de Montfort in his prayer requesting for apostles. It means who is of the Lord, join with me.

Faithful Catholics are heading to Belle Plaine, MN to protest the first monument dedicated to the devil to be erected publicly on public grounds. The worship to the devil should never be allowed by a God-fearing society.

The Satanists, as can be seen in their call to action communique below are gathering their troops as well.

This is a clash is those who are of the virgin and those who are of the virgin.

Please join in prayer, fasting, sacrifice and frequent invocations to the angels of Heaven. They fought this battle in Heaven and won. They can help us fight this one and win as well.

A Catholic Man's Duty to Defend the Weak

Sisters of St. Dominic, Post Falls, Idaho


Religious nuns have long been the symbol of purity, virginity, tenderness, service of others, culture, and discipline. They have also long been seen as the bride of Christ. They represent for humanity the very iamge of maidenhood. These women have given up motherhood to preserve themselves for Christ in perpetual maidenhood.

To abuse a nun, for mere "entertainment", ranks up there with inhumane actions that sins against the virtue of innocence, like kicking a puppy, throwing kittens in a raging river or abusing children.

A local Idaho news station, KREM, ran a story of how the sisters of St. Dominic in Post Falls, ID are being harassed by local teenagers.

Excerpts from http://www.krem.com/news/local/local-nuns-complain-of-ongoing-harassment/450775382

The worse part is the profanity and vulgarity with which the nuns are being harassed. It's as if the teenagers know exactly what virtues the nuns practice and what filthy temptations to throw at them.
Excerpts from http://www.krem.com/news/local/local-nuns-complain-of-ongoing-harassment/450775382

The third commandment of Chivalry states that the knight shall respect all weaknesses, and shalt constitute thyself the defender of them. This includes widows, orphans, the poor and the brides of Christ.


The Ten Commandments of the Medieval Code of Chivalry:

  • Thou shalt believe all that the Church teaches, and shalt observe all its directions.
  • Thou shalt defend the Church.
  • Thou shalt respect all weaknesses, and shalt constitute thyself the defender of them.
  • Thou shalt love the country in the which thou wast born.
  • Thou shalt not recoil before the enemy.
  • Thou shalt make war against the Infidel without cessation, and without mercy.
  • Thou shalt perform scrupulously thy feudal duties, if they be not contrary to the laws of God.
  • Thou shalt never lie, and shalt remain faithful to thy pledged word.
  • Thou shalt be generous, and give largesse to everyone.
  • Thou shalt be everywhere and always the champion of the Right and the Good against Injustice and Evil.

Where are the Catholic men to defend these nuns? Where are the modern day knights to ward the filth cast at these brides of Christ? Where are the gentlemen who  are willing to stand up to preserve the innocence and purity of these maidens of Christianity.

This is one of the reasons why the TFP promotes the spirit of chivalry. There used to be a time when this spirit was the point of reference for all men. If you were a men, you needed to practice the virtues associated with chivalry, be you noble or common.

When Clovis, king of Franks, converted, he heard the story of the Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ. He became furious by the injustice. He pounded his battle ax on the ground and exclaimed; "Had I and my Franks been there, it would not have happened."



It was a noble sentiment from a barbarian leader. Yet, already in his statement, one can see the spirit of chivalry. Defend those who cannot defend themselves, to lay down one's life for another, and most especially for Christ.

Such should be the sentiment of all Catholic men in face of the evils of our world. Our desire withe the TFP Call To Chivalry camps is to restore this spirit in the hearts of all men.

Is there hope for our youth?



Many times people wonder if there is hope for our future generations.

It's a valid concern seeing much of the youth mired in immorality, impurity and many times are so self focused they seem not to care for anything but themselves. The world they care for, the only one it seems, is their smart phones, their computers, their video games and their sports.

On the other hand, we frequently see liberal college activists in the news blocking traffic, disrupting pro-life rallies, or demonstrating about how some lives matter but not babies' lives.

Are there still good youths in America? Are all either liberals or apathetic?



The video above show that there is hope for future generations. There are many, which is not reported in the media or reflected in Hollywood, who are selfless, generous, God-fearing and God-loving.
The video linked above demonstrates this.

An atheist group protested that atheists students will be offended if the commencement ceremony began with a prayer. With barely a fight, the board of education agreed and canceled that part of the school's tradition. So, the students took the issue into their own hands. When the valedictorian went up to give his speech, he gestures to the graduates to stand up. Then they recited the Our Father prayer altogether, to the applause of the crowd.

Students Affirming Belief In God Publicly

If just one youth stood up in a crowd, it can make a difference... especially when God is on his "side." When a whole graduation class stands up, imagine how much of a difference that makes.
