Young legionaries emphasise importance of youth’s zeal for the Church of today

Legion of Mary members Nathan Magill and Sr Jasmine Cano spoke about the growing involvement of young people in the Church during the arrival of the relics of St Thérèse at the Legion of Mary headquarters in Dublin on October 2.

Magill, a member from Belfast, noted that while youth participation in the Church may be low, those involved bring unique passion, enthusiasm, and talent to their work. He observed a transition in the Legion from having only two members under the age of 30 to seeing a significant revival of young people.

Sr Jasmine Cano, who joined the Legion one year ago, also reported seeing a revival of youth within the organization. Both members reflected on the "Little Way" of St Thérèse as a model for faithfulness.
