Out
of the knowledge, love and service of the Sacred Heart
of our Divine Savior, a new legion of lay Catholics
is emerging nationwide to proclaim the truths of the Faith He
revealed to mankind.Ready to heed the call of John
Paul II, who challenged the Church to 'Re-Evangelize the
Baptized', the Legionaries of the Sacred Heart affirm
their determination to respond to the 'dictatorship of
relativism' that is confronting the world, by means of
the 'New Apologetics' called for by Benedict XVI's
predecessor.
Eager to learn from Him who is 'Meek and Humble of
Heart', Legionaries dedicate time, prayer and resources
to contend for the Faith delivered unto the Saints
(Jude 1:3).
Headquartered at the New Evangelization Office of the
National Shrine of the Sacred Heart, Harleigh,
Pennsylvania, the Legionaries of the Sacred Heart of
Jesus are careful not to confuse 'meekness and humility'
with 'weakness and mediocrity'.
They call upon Lay Catholics from all walks of life
in North America to make a commitment to a greater
learning of the Catholic Faith, love of the Catholic
Faith and service to the Catholic Faith to their best of
their ability.
