The Legion of Mary is a worldwide lay apostolic organization. Our parish group is at the service of the pastor to perform works of the Catholic Action or social service; but the group does not collect money or give material relief. The Legion is based on a strong devotion to the Blessed Mother and aims to do apostolic work in union with her. Work is done in pairs and typically involves visiting lapsed Catholics, non-Catholics, shut-ins, nursing homes, hospitals, jails, etc. All Catholics should be apostles but in ordinary life the opportunities come only sporadically. The Legion gives us an organized opportunity each week to be apostles.
Training: No initial training is required. New members can do useful work immediately. Since most work is done in pairs, new members will be assigned with experienced members.
Time Commitment: Membership requires attending the weekly one-hour meetings that begin at 7:20 pm on Tuesday and doing about two hours of volunteer work each week.
