Founder of Legion | Product Lead · Paris, France
Founder of The Legion. Having once been an isolated Catholic, I created this platform to help every Catholic to connect with the global Catholic community no matter where they are in the world, and develop the skills they need to do so. Currently running the platform solo, so please give me grace.

Need a new job with a good salary (help)
Good evening @everyone, How are you? I hope you are well 🙏🏽 I am actually in some difficulties. I just finished my internship in a holding where I work for 9 months now. But they cannot renew the contracts, they actually make the registration of their Canadian holding here in Senegal. They cannot say when all the administrative acts will be available or complete with the new contracts. And I have to pay my rent, my internet connection 🛜 before the 27th June, my scholarship for my MBA. I am looking for a new job This is my professional profile : https://linkedIn.com/in/arnoldkiti My phone number : +221 76 934 51 20 (on WhatsApp | inbox 📥 | call 🤙🏽) God bless all of you for your prayers 🙏🏽 If you have some new opportunities for my skills in a big company or international organisation, I am available 🙏🏽 I am in prayer with my wife and our child 🙏🏽 Best regards, Arnold
Prayer for a friend
Hi everyone, a friend of mine is learning theology and church history, and I’m helping him with the Catholic aspect of church history. I can see very little things in his heart changing towards Catholic understanding. His biggest things are bishop of Rome supremacy, the Eucharist, and the dogmas we have on Mary. I’m helping him a lot more with the Eucharist aspect, along with handing him a copy of “defend the faith!” by Robert Haddad (and a few other books by him) for him to help understand. I can see him beginning to see things from the Catholic perspective. So I’m asking for prayer that the lord works in his heart and his wife to be open to Catholic Church and to hopefully join the church. He currently doesn’t think he’ll ever join, but even I admitted when I first started looking into the church, it’s history, doctrines and councils, it wasn’t to join but it was the Lord’s plan. God bless.

Bible Study Tips
Hi all, Hope you’re having a good Sunday 😊 Had a quick question - I’d love to get some tips on how you approach Bible study. How do you decide which book to read next? Also do you use any specific commentary, study guide, or do you just dive straight in?

Anyone here from Mumbai or Dubai? 🕊️
Are you training too much or too little?
Most Catholics are doing one of two things wrong in the gym. Here’s how to tell which one you are. Training too much looks like: • Joint pain that never fully goes away • You’re tired all the time and but can’t sleep • Mood crashes, irritability, low or momentum • You dread workouts instead of wanting them • Performance is going down despite more effort See the full list in the Fitness Legion!
Happy St. Anthony Feast
Today, 13th June, is the Feast of St. Anthony. Devotion to this saint has been growing steadily across the world. It is said that miracles awaited his word. Such was St. Anthony’s love for God that he became one of the saints most renowned for performing the most number of miracles. He is invoked for the recovery of lost articles, for finding a holy spouse and for many other pious intentions.
First post
Praise God & warm greetings my brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ. I'm Joseph from India (south), living and studying in Milan. I'd love to join or build a virtual brotherhood of young men in love with God, who help each other get closer to God, to grow in virtue & live the Faith in a world hostile to it. If there's someone out there who thinks the same, reach out to me *. Let's join forces, and help get each other to heaven. No man left behind. God bless you all. Ave Cristus Rex. * - (I have started a legion as well: legion of young men)
Our Father
So much is packed into the Our Father prayer. What’s your favourite line from it?

Reading the CCC cover to cover
I am currently reading the CCC and I always knew it would be a reference point, but I didn’t expect to keep finding answers to questions I didn’t even know I had. Have you read the CCC? What’s the biggest thing you learned from it? Also, if anyone wants to begin reading it and you’re looking for help understanding it, Lauren from The Catholic Classroom explains a paragraph a day on Instagram/TikTok/YT & FB and it’s been incredibly helpful.
To all Filipinos here
Feliz Dia de la Independencia de la Republica de Filipinas y la Solemnidad de Sagrado Corazon de Jesus! May the Sacred Heart reign in our hearts and our country. No mas Amor que el tuyo, O corazon Divino!
O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything
O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.🕊️
✨ The Aaronic Blessing from God ✨
May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you His favor and give you peace. May this beautiful blessing from God strengthen your faith, fill your heart with hope, and remind you of His loving presence today and always. 🙏
LF: Accountability Partner
I really need to finish my books. Need to be consistent in listening to podcasts. Watching YT Catholic content. Making contents as well. And ofc, bible-reading, liturgy of the hours, rosary, adoration visits, etc. If this resonates with you, let me know! Maybe we can be accountability buddies.
Which Devotion do you practice daily?
Kingdom of Breath and Bone: Episode 1 - The Mud of the Nile.
"Imagine your fingers permanently stained with the grey, stagnant silt of the Nile, and your back knowing the daily, rhythmic bite of the taskmaster's switch." The script is officially locked, and we are stepping into the studio to begin production on Episode 1 of our immersive audio drama series, Kingdom of Breath and Bone: "The Mud of the Nile." Our focus with this series is entirely on bringing historical narrative to life through rich atmospheric details. We are building a sensory experience that drops the listener straight into the high-stakes reality of the ancient Delta brick pits alongside Eliab, an eleven-year-old boy navigating a brutal system of forced labor. The production is designed to be fully immersive. When you eventually put on your headphones, you will experience the setting firsthand: the violent sloshing of Nile mud, the sharp crack of a whip echoing across the workspace, and the steadying, gravelly whisper of Moses right in your ear. This is a story about resilience, heritage, and the internal strength, given by surrendering entirely to Elohim and required to stand straight when everything around you is designed to wear you down. It is a reminder that character isn't built through a smooth, flawless path, it is forged directly in the center of the struggle. We are tracking the core cast in-house and sourcing the final voices now as the microphones go live. If you like to try your hand at those voices, let me know. Follow along for behind-the-scenes updates from the studio as we bring this world to life. (Head to www.breathandbonemedia.com/contact to join the cohort and follow the journey)
