EDUCATION The specific mission of the Legion of Christ and Regnum Christi Movement in the educational apostolate is summarized in the motto Integer homo; that is, providing its students with an integral formation. Our educational program consists of three essential elements: Teach: To teach means to provide the student with the intellectual capabilities, content, and skills needed to respond to the demands of today''s society. Educate: To educate means to train the student in the habit of intellectual rigor, structured reasoning, and in the appreciation of beauty; it means to cultivate sensitivity, memory, imagination; and finally, to develop art of communication and the ability to express oneself clearly and elegantly. Form: To form is to lead the student to become a person for others, with an upright ethical code, sensitivity toward the needs of others - especially the most disadvantaged - and an openness to human and spiritual values. In this way students are prepared not just for professional success but also for their self-realization as persons and authentic Christians in the various facets of their personal and professional lives.

Youth for the Third Millennium & Missionary Families for the Third Millennium These two international missionary organizations were born in Mexico in 1985 to help priests and bishops in the task of the new evangelization of society through rural and urban door-to-door missions. To date, they are active in the United States, El Salvador, Venezuela, Chile, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Cuba, Italy, France, Spain, Ireland, Germany, Bosnia, the Bahamas, and Lebanon. Missions are organized throughout the year, but especially during Easter and summer vacation. They rely on the participation of thousands of young men and women as well as Catholic families who wish to share their faith, their love, and their time with the most spiritually needy.

The Legion serves the Church and others through schools, universities and centers to form the character and Christian virtue of families, youth, and married couples, as well as the Christian and humanitarian development of the poor. Legionaries serve the local churches through catechesis, missions, media apostolates, and they offer diocesan priests ongoing formation courses in their dioceses. The name sums up a Christ-centered spirituality in which Jesus Christ is the center, standard, and model of a Legionary''s religious, priestly, and apostolic life. LOVE FOR CHRIST Legionaries seek to experience and know Christ intimately in the Gospel, the Eucharist, and the Cross. They strive to love Him in a personal and passionate way by imitating as their only model of holiness.
