August 2023 Senatus Meeting

In the Allocutio, Rev. Fr. Emmanuel Mawanda, Spiritual Director of Kabuwoko Comitium in Masaka Diocese emphasized (basing on the Spiritual Reading from the handbook Chapter 5 Section 5) that to fulfill the object of the Legion of Mary, each one must know what the object requires of him/her and the root of this devotion must be exhibited at the Praesidium.

The Rosary Crusade with the aim of marking Mother Mary and the Rosary known is being organised by the Holy Cross Family Ministries in conjunction with the Legion of Mary, Senatus of Uganda from 6th to 7th October 2023 starting at Our Lady of Fatima Parish, Nakulabye. The theme is “Mary, Our Mother Visits Kampala City”. For details, click here.

Legionaries were requested to offer a Spiritual bouquet for the new bishop of Kasana-Luweero Diocese, Rt. Rev. Lawrence Mukasa.

Reparation prayers are held at Our Lady of Fatima, Nankulabye Parish every second Friday of the month.

The Praesidium meeting is key to the life of the Legion of Mary. Each legionary MUST belong to a Praesidium. Let us always keep time and as advised by Concilium, a Praesidium meeting can take place even with 2 people save that the secret bag does not go around because it will no longer be secret.

In the meeting, we received reports from Kabuwoko Comitium, Mbale Comitium and Lira Comitium.
