The Legion of Mary is a lay catholic organization whose members are giving service to the Church on a voluntary basis in almost every country.
The object of the Legion of Mary is the glory of God through the holiness of its members developed by prayer and active co-operation in Mary’s and the Church’s work. The unit of the Legion of Mary is called a praesidium, which holds a weekly meeting, where prayer is intermingled with reports and discussion. Persons who wish to join the Legion must apply for membership in a Praesidium. The Legion sees as its priority the spiritual and social welfare of each individual. The members participate in the life of the parish through visitation of families, the sick, both in their homes and in hospitals and through collaboration in every apostolic and missionary undertaking sponsored by the parish. Every legionary is required to carry out a weekly apostolic work in the spirit of faith and in union with Mary.

The Legion of Mary prays a weekly Rosary for our Youth to be protected from secular influences (as requested by Father Edisson and being continued as an apostolic work). Please join us in this weekly Rosary either physically or spiritually. The Legion of Mary will pray the Rosary this Wednesday, November 17 at 10:30 am, Hope Mills Park. All are encourage to join them. If you cannot be there in person, please pray your Rosary on Thursday with the youth to resist secular influences as your intention.
Heavenly Father, we gather today to offer this Rosary for the protection of our youth against secular influences, whether it be from social media, other people, or even from ourselves. We know that the devil likes to prey upon those who feel lonely, depressed, or overly anxious. We humbly ask for your graces with the intercession of Our Blessed Mother and Saint Joseph that you aide us in this spiritual battle against all evil. Help us parents, especially, to preserve the innocence of our children. We pray that they continue to grow in their faith and love of you and to seek you out in times of trouble and confusion. We pray that they have the desire to spend time with you in Adoration for that closeness and for your everlasting love and mercy. Amen.
May Mary, our Blessed Mother,
hold you dearly in her Immaculate Heart.
