White Army of Our Lady
Ecclesial Movement
The Armata Bianca has as its primary purpose the spiritual care of children with their Consecration to the Father in Mary and with the formation of Prayer Nests.
The purpose of this site is to inform about what the Armata Bianca is, about the spirit that animates it, about its ecclesiality and about what it has achieved and intends to achieve.
“Father Eusebio, take my weapon from the pocket of my habit.” Father Eusebio did not understand and Padre Pio pointed to the pocket of his habit where his rosary was. His closest spiritual children had understood well what the rosary meant to Padre Pio.
Cleonice Morcaldi wrote: “the evening before he died he was in his usual place, on the veranda, with the weapon in his hand.” Hence the name “Armata.”
In collaboration with the Pontifical Foundation Aid to the Church in Need, World Rosary Day, and other organizations, we at the White Army are also joining this great prayer from October 1 to 7, 2026: one million children united in a worldwide Rosary!
Who can join the White Army
All those who are little in age and all those who are willing to become “little in spirit” should consecrate themselves to the Father by saying, like Mary, their unconditional “yes” to His Will.
“Unless you turn and become like children,
you will never enter the kingdom of heaven” (Mt 18:3).
