The Legion of Mary, invoking the Holy Spirit, seeks to serve Jesus Christ under the direction Of and in union with his Mother, Mary Immaculate, Mediatrix of all Graces, in accordance with the vision of its founder Frank Duff. It is at the disposal of diocesan bishops & parish priests or other competent ecclesiastical authorities for a variety of services they deem suitable for legionaries.
