Legion of Mary

LOM2The Legion of Mary is an international Catholic organization of lay apostolate of men and women who sanctify themselves through prayer and apostolic work in union with the Blessed Virgin Mary.  It originated in Dublin, Ireland for the purpose of making its members better Catholics, to mobilize the Catholic laity, and to raise the spiritual level of the entire community through evangelization of every member of the Mystical Body of Christ.

The unit of the Legion of Mary is called a praesidium, which holds a weekly meeting involving the recitation of the Rosary, spiritual reading, a short reflection talk, a discussion of Catholic doctrine and devotion, and an evaluation of the apostolate work.

At St. Charles Parish, there are two (2) praesidiums, namely:

  • Our Lady of Miraculous Medal Praesidium
    President:  Lydia Perez
    Vice-President: Arturo Salise
    Secretary:  Nina dela Cruz

  • Weekly meeting is on Wednesday at Room 13 from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm.
