“The Legion of Mary is an Association of Catholics who, under the powerful leadership of Mary Immaculate, Mediatrix of All Graces, have formed themselves into a Legion of service in the warfare which is perpetually waged by the Church against the world and its evil powers” – quote pg 9, Legion of Mary Handbook
The Cincinnati Comitium is the governing body over the local parish groups, called praesidia, for Ohio, Northern Kentucky and the southern part of Indiana.
The Legion of Mary is a lay Catholic organization whose members are giving service to the Church, on a voluntary basis, all over the world.
The object of the Legion of Mary is the glory of God through the holiness of its members developed by prayer and active co-operation in Mary’s and the Church’s work.
