Relationship With The Legion of Christ
Regnum Christi was founded out of the Legion of Christ and is directly related. When the statues were approved in 2004, it was described as the apostolate of the Legion of Christ to expedite approval. On October 19, 2012, a working document clarified that the Legion is a branch of the Regnum Christi movement. Therefore, each member of the Legion of Christ is a member of Regnum Christi. A priest of the Legion is considered to be a third degree member of Regnum Christi. "Working with lay people is an essential part of the Legion’s apostolic methodology. The Legionaries carry out their apostolate above all with Regnum Christi members, forming them in human and Christian virtues, serving them with their priestly ministry, launching them in pastoral action, uniting efforts in their shared mission, and thus spurring on a great variety of works at the service of the Church."
