The Legion of Mary

The Legion of Mary is an action organization, an apostolate which is truly a lifetime vocation, and can be accommodated on a part-time basis. Legionnaires reach out from hearts that are tuned to the voice of the Spirit. They reach out into the hearts of the un-churched, those thousands of dear ones who deep down are longing for the encouragement, the warmth, the love of fellow Christians who live, not to criticize, but to heal.

Mary, the loving, concerned, always available one. Mary is the Legionary's model. Legionaries act but are not activists. Works of active members are: visiting their auxiliary, or praying member; teaching CCD; visiting rest or convalescent homes; visiting shut-ins; Eucharistic ministry to the home bound; and the Legion's choice work: door-to-door evangelization. Members are available to assist our pastor in whatever ways are requested. Membership is open to all practicing Catholics (men and women). The 1-1/2 hour meeting is held Friday afternoons at 3:30 PM in the school library. Our active works require two hours of your time each week.

Joining the Legion of Mary as an active member will help you:
· To see Christ in others and to serve Him there.
· To become a holier person within yourself.
· To work hand in hand with Mary our mother.
· To submit yourself to the Holy Spirit.
· To do great things for God and for the salvation of souls.
Please consider this ministry as part of your sacrificial giving of time and talent. Contact Ann Sherry at 934-1867.
