The Legion of Mary is an Association of Lay Catholics founded in Dublin in 1921 and there are members working in most countries in the world. Its aim is to help its volunteers and those they meet come closer to Jesus and Mary through prayer and active work.

In Monkstown Parish Our Lady of Good Counsel Praesidium meets in St Patrick’s Parish Centre on Mondays at 8.00 pm.
Activities include:

  • Visiting the Cheshire House and participating in the team that brings residents to Mass
  • Visiting sick and elderly people in Nursing Homes
  • Assisting with the annual Legion Afternoon of Recollection for people with mobility problems
  • Some visitation of homes promoting Parish and Legion activities and in particular the Cause for Beatification of former Monkstown parishioner and legionary Venerable Edel Quinn
  • Assisting with a public Rosary

New volunteers are always welcome.
