Legionaries of Christ live in communities making vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience. Formation of a Legionary of Christ is a deep and transformative process that spans an average of 12 years, leading up to his priestly ordination. He is formed to be both contemplative and apostolic. In their mission of forming apostles, Christian leaders at the service of the Church, over 1,500 Legionaries of Christ throughout the world make present the mystery of Christ gathering the Apostles around him, revealing to them the love of his heart, forming them and sending them out to collaborate with him in building up his Kingdom (see Mark 3:13-14; Matthew 10:5-10; 28:18-20; CLC 4)

"I love everything about being a Legionary. I love the spirit, the mission, the discipline, the focus, and the high ideals and expectations. God and all of the souls in our broken world deserve the best of us, and in different ways, He has constantly given me a chance to offer everything —I have out of love for Him,

the Church, and humanity."
