Saturday, November 2nd, 2024: We Invite You to learn More About the Legion of Mary

The Legion of Mary: Who Are We?

We Invite You to Learn More About the Legion of Mary

Join Us As We Pray the Holy Rosary in Florence Area Cemeteries

We Commemorate the Faithful Departed Throughout November

The Legion of Mary is the largest apostolic organization of lay people in the Catholic Church, active in almost every country in the world including 29 Legion of Mary organizations in parishes in South Carolina.  To be apostolic means to walk in the ways and teaching of Jesus.  In other words, to be apostolic is to be a disciple of Jesus Christ.

The main purpose of the Legion of Mary is to give glory to God by becoming instruments of the Holy Spirit  through a balanced program of prayer and service.  Examples of works include parishioner visitation, hospital and home visitation to the sick or aged, rides to Mass or for personal needs, religious education, attending and praying the Rosary at wake/funeral services, and meeting the other spiritual needs of the parish community through planning / leading novenas and other prayer services.

Members meet once a week for prayer, planning and discussion in a family setting.  Then, Legion of Mary members do two hours of definite work each week.

Our meeting times are every Tuesday at 1:00-2:30 PM in the St. Ann Library/Classroom in the St. Ann Parish Life Center.  We invite you to come and to pray with us.
