The Society of Mary is an Anglican devotional society dedicated to and under the patronage of the Blessed Virgin Mary. As its website states, it is a group of Anglican Christians "dedicated to the Glory of God and the Holy Incarnation of Christ under the invocation of Our Lady, Help of Christians." The Anglican Society of Mary is not to be confused with the two Roman Catholic religious orders of the same name commonly called the Marists and the Marianists. ==Objectives== The stated objectives of the society are: * To love and honour Mary * To spread devotion to her in reparation for past neglect and misunderstanding * To take Mary as a model in purity, personal relationships and family life Members of the society keep a rule of life that includes traditional Marian devotions (such as the Angelus and the Rosary), intercession for the faithful departed members of the society, participation in Mass on the major Marian feasts and solemnities and active engagement in apostolic work. In localities where there are a number of members they may come together to form local organisations called "wards" or "cells". These groups gather for prayer and fellowship. The society's magazine, called ''AVE'', is published three times per year. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Society of Mary (Anglican)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
