Ecclessiology is the study of the Church and what is revieled by God. The highest form of life is the contemplative life in a monastary. It is the life of St. John the Beloved. This is different from the life of Peter. The life of Peter is the life of bishops and priests. It is the second highest form of life. The third highest form of life is the lay life. This are the baptised and confirmed who received Communion and who ratiate the light of the Church — they are the front lines in the effort to inflame the world with the love of God. The Legion of Mary is a form of lay life in the Church, it is a vocation like that of the clergy and the monks/nuns.

About Legion of Mary

The joys and the hopes, the griefs and the anxieties of the of the people you see in your Legion of Mary work, especially those who are poor or in any way afflicted, these are the joys and hopes, the griefs and anxieties of the followers of Christ. Indeed, nothing genuinely human fails to raise an echo in their hearts. For theirs is a community composed of men. United in Christ, they are led by the Holy Spirit in their journey to the Kingdom of their Father and they have welcomed the news of salvation which is meant for every man. All knowledge that does not have Love as its end is useless.
