The object of the Legion of Mary is the glory of God through the holiness of its members developed by prayer and active cooperation, under ecclesiastical guidance, in Mary's and the church's work of advancing the reign of Christ.
The Legion of Mary is open to men and women of all four parishes. For more information or to join, please contact an officer or member. We look forward to the wonderful things this group will do for our church communities.

“For all states of the laity the perfect example of spiritual and apostolic life is the most Blessed Virgin Mary, Queen of Apostles, who while leading the life common to all here on earth, one filled with family concerns and labours, was always intimately united with her Son and in an entirely unique way co-operated in the work of the Saviour . . . All should devoutly venerate her and commend their life and apostolate to her maternal care”. Vatican II: Decree on the Apostolate of the Laity |
