Join the Legion of Mary — Workers and Prayers
The Legion of Mary needs you — your hands, your voice, your presence in the apostolate.
The Legion of Mary has two forms of membership. Active members are the heart of the Legion — they carry out its apostolic works, bringing the light of Christ into homes, hospitals and streets. Today, of the Legion's ten million members worldwide, only three million serve as active legionaries. The need for new active members has never been greater. We invite you to answer that call.
Active members are the hands and feet of the Legion. They commit to:
Every parish, every community needs legionaries willing to go out and serve. If you feel called to bring the faith to others, this is your invitation. Apply to your nearest Praesidium and begin your apostolate.
Become ActiveIf your circumstances do not permit you to undertake active membership at this time, you might consider auxiliary membership, which is designed to provide a vital service of prayer supporting the work of active members.
The prayers of auxiliary members sustain and strengthen every legionary in the field. As circumstances change, auxiliary members are always warmly encouraged to consider the step to active membership.
