Meetings
Meets at Sacred Heart on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. in Room 5.
The Coronation

Organization
The Legion of Mary is the largest Apostolic organization of
laity in the Catholic Church, with over 6 million members.

Active members strive to visit the sick, lonely, the old, in the hospitals or in their own homes; visit lapsed Catholics who want to return but are afraid of taking that step; visit every house in the Parish in the hope of bringing Christ’s message
to everyone.

Auxiliary members support the active members with their daily praying of the Tessara which is a set of special prayers and includes the rosary.

The Legion of Mary 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.

Why join the Legion?
To take part in the apostolate of the Church because Christ has no hands to do His work but your most generous hands. He has no feet but your feet to help lead men into His ways. He has no tongue but yours to tell all how He died for them. He has no help but your help to bring men back to His side. He needs you today to do all His wonderful works of mercy.

Come as a guest to a Legion of Mary meeting and see the Legion from the inside.

Catena Legionis
Who is she that comes forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array?
My soul glorifies the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. He looks on his servant in her lowliness; hence-forth all ages will call me blessed.
The Almighty works marvels for me. Holy His name! His mercy is from age to age, on those who fear him. He puts forth his arm in strength and scatters the proud-hearted. He casts the mighty from their thrones and raises the lowly. He fills the starving with good things, sends the rich away empty. He protects Israel, His servant, remembering His mercy, the mercy promised to our fathers, to Abraham and his sons for ever.
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end, Amen.
Who is she that comes forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array?
O Mary, conceived without sin, Pray for us who have recourse to you.
Let us pray. O Lord Jesus Christ, our mediator with the Father, You have been pleased to appoint the most Blessed Virgin, your mother, to be our mother also, and our mediatrix with you, mercifully grant that whoever comes to you seeking your favors may rejoice to receive all of them through
her.  Amen
