What is it?
The Legion of Mary is the largest apostolic organization of lay people in the Catholic Church, with over 3 million active members in almost every country in the world. The main purpose of the Legion of Mary is to give glory to God through the sanctification of its members.
What does it do?
Members become instruments of the Holy Spirit through a balanced program of prayer and service to meet the spiritual needs of the parish as determined by the pastor, e.g., home visits, evangelization, or religious education.
How does it work?
Members meet once a week for prayer, planning, and discussion in a family setting. Then they do two hours of definite work each week in pairs.
Who can belong?
Any practicing Catholic. You can try it out without any obligation for the first three months. Come and see by visiting a meeting.
