The Legion of Christ's Self Report



THERE IS A SEMINAL PROBLEM HERE: THE LEGION DESIGNS THE SURVEY, THE LEGION DISTRIBUTES THE SURVEY AND THE LEGION TABULATES THE RESULTS. WHERE DOES OBJECTIVITY COME IN? SHOULD NOT THIS BE DONE BY AN INDEPENDENT SOURCE?

We refer you to the Legion article appearing recently on their blog

General Membership Survey



QUOTES:

Results from the Regnum Christi general membership survey conducted early this summer are consistent with the survey taken in 2011.  


 More than 700 Legionaries, consecrated and lay members completed this year’s form, about half the number from two years ago.

As in the earlier survey, members continue to raise a desire for greater transparency in how we operate and a clearer view of the Movement’s overall mission. Both issues are being addressed in our renewal process.

Two years ago, many respondents expressed a desire that Regnum Christi put greater emphasis on working within the local Church, particularly in parishes.  The 2013 survey indicates that we have made much progress in this area.

At the same time, respondents identified weakness in our willingness to invite new people to the Movement, indicating there are some members still awaiting the results of the various assemblies later this fall and the Legion’s General Chapter to be held early in 2014.  The majority of those surveyed are positive about inviting new members to the Movement.
