As a member of the Legion, your life is devoted to the service of the saints and consecrated to the work of establishing justice and peace. You might be a true believer, inspired by the example of the saints, moved by the plight of the downtrodden, and devoted to the cause of justice. Or you could be a cynic in the ranks, perhaps because you reluctantly followed in the footsteps of a parent, succumbed to the persuasion of a charismatic recruiter’s lofty promises, or were drawn in by the prospect of a life of action.

Contacts
