St. Angela's Legion of Mary celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima
-
The Legion of Mary is the largest apostolic organization of lay people in the Catholic Church under the powerful leadership of Mary Immaculate, Mediatrix of All Graces, that serves the Church and their neighbor on a voluntary basis. The unit of the Legion of Mary is called a praesidium. Our Prae-sidium is called Mother of Mercy.
We hold a weekly meeting (Monday’s at 4:30pm) where prayer is intermingled with reports and discussion. The Legion members participate in the life of the parish through visitation of families, the sick, both in their homes, hospitals or assistant living facilities 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. Some apostolic works are: Pilgrim Virgin Visitation, distributing Holy Communion to homebound parishioners, assistant living facilities and the County Jail. We also do monthly Novena Coordination, some members are catechists, prepare and distribute prayer packs to Back to School program, leading the prayer of the rosary in wakes and church, crafting rosaries for distribution, etc.
We maintain the Blessed Mother Statue at the Narthex and insure that fresh flowers adorn it each week. We have auxiliary members who are the praying wing of the Legion army.
Our Praesidium is under the guidance of our spiritual directors Father Joy and Kathleen Messina.
