The Legion of Mary invites parishioners aged 18 and older to join a dynamic combination of prayer and spiritual works of mercy. This group provides a meaningful space for individuals to deepen their spiritual journey while actively engaging in acts of mercy. This community welcomes individuals who are passionate about integrating prayer and service, fostering a sense of purpose and connection among its members. Meetings take place every Monday at 4:30 pm in Room 114, offering a dedicated time for fellowship and growth.

The Legion of Mary is the largest apostolic organization of lay people in the Catholic Church, with about 3 million active members in almost every country of the world. The Legion of Mary has been active in the United States (USA) since 1931, has been approved by 7 Popes, and was endorsed by the Second Vatican Council. The main purpose of the Legion of Mary is to give glory to God through the sanctification of its members.

Members of the Legion of Mary become instruments of the Holy Spirit through a balanced program of prayer and service in a family atmosphere. Works include door-to-door evangelization, parishioner visitation, visitation of the sick or aged, Catholic education, visiting the newly baptized, visiting families, and meeting the other spiritual needs of the parish community. Legionaries are under the guidance of a spiritual director named by the pastor. The Legion of Mary is, in essence, an extension of the heart and hands of the pastor.
