About us
Queen of the Holy Rosary Vancouver Comitium, Legion of Mary
The Legion of Mary is a lay apostolic association of Catholics who, with the sanction of the Church and under the powerful leadership of Mary Immaculate, Mediatrix of All Graces, serve the Church and their neighbor on a voluntary basis in about 170 countries. With the approval and support of the Popes and great many Bishops, Priests and Religious, as well as the prayers and efforts of legionaries, the Legion of Mary, by the grace of God, has grown into a worldwide organization with several million members.
The Queen of the Holy Rosary Vancouver Comitium Legion of Mary started the Legion Lay Apostolate in 1937 at the request of Archbishop William Mark Duke, DD.
The Legion of Mary started from one praesidium into numerous praesidia, from one Curia and soon more Curiae and from there a Comitium was established to supervise the other Curiae in the other parts of British Columbia.
At present, the Queen of the Holy Rosary Vancouver Comitium Legion of Mary is serving in almost all parishes in the Archdiocese of Vancouver with 14 Curiae and 20 Praesidia affiliated to it and with more than a thousand active members and several thousand auxiliary members.
The members participate in the life of the parish through visitation of families, the sick (both in their homes and in hospitals) and 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. Seeing and serving Christ in the sick and marginalized is another vital part of the legionary apostolate.
