Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

This collection documents the history, administration, and devotional life of the Angelic Warfare Confraternity within the Province of St. Albert the Great from 1937–2012. The Angelic Warfare Confraternity is a spiritual fellowship within the Catholic Church dedicated to promoting chastity and purity through prayer, sacramental devotion, and community, especially under the patronage of St. Thomas Aquinas.

The collection includes materials generated by the Directors of Confraternities from 1978 to 2012, as well as by local promoters and member communities. These materials consist of correspondence, canonical forms, devotional handouts, prayer cards, promotional brochures, and other religious literature for members. Administrative records reflect the governance, development, and outreach efforts of the Confraternity across the province.

A substantial component of the collection is the member registries, which document individual enrollments in the Confraternity at various Dominican priories, including St. Thomas Aquinas Priory (River Forest, IL), St. Rose Priory (Dubuque, IA), and others. These records span from 1937 through 1965 and provide listings of lay and clerical members, often including dates of enrollment.

Materials are primarily textual, including correspondence, printed forms, devotional booklets, and handwritten registers. The materials are housed in two boxes.
