Frank Duff
Founder of the Legion of Mary
Item Number: 2606
On December 11, 1965, three days after the close of Vatican II, Frank Duff, a lay observer at the Council, was ushered into a private audience with Pope Paul IV. "Mr. Duff," the Holy Father said, "I want to thank you for your services to the Church and also to express appreciation for all that the Legion of Mary has done...The Legion of Mary has served the Church faithfully and the Church will protect the Legion." Frank Duff...The Legion of Mary...two names that will be forever linked together in the Church's history of the Lay Apostolate of the 20th century...two names spiritually related to St. Louis de Montfort and his apostolic form of Marian spirituality, leading souls to Jesus through Mary.
In writing this candid, very personal and unpretentious biography of a very close friend and countryman, Father Robert Bradshaw has rendered a priceless service to those who want to know what this man, Frank Duff, was like and some of the people and events that helped shape his long and brillliant career in the serrvice of God and his fellowman.
