The object of the Legion of Mary is the glory of God through the holiness of its members developed by prayer and in active co-operation in Mary’s and the Churches work. The parish unit of the Legion of Mary is called a praesidium, which holds weekly meetings, where prayer intermingles with reports of apostolic works done and discussions. Every active legionary is required to carry out a weekly apostolic work in the spirit of faith and in union with Mary.
It is a lay apostolic association of Catholics, who with sanction of the church and under the powerful leadership of Mary Immaculate, Mediatrix of All Graces serve the Church and their neighbours on a voluntary basis in about 170 countries.
