- Business Leaders United in Christ, Serving the Church
  In Legatus, we humbly follow Christ in everything we do—and we work hard to support our members in their relationship with God, their service to the Church, and their professional endeavors.
- Faith
  
  Everything we do in Legatus is rooted in the Catholic faith. Whether it is a monthly chapter meeting or a national event, our time together is centered on celebrating the Mass, going to confession, and uniting together in prayer. Legatus provides many opportunities to learn more about the faith and explore the treasure trove of wisdom to be found in the Church.
- Formation
  
  Legatus is committed to the ongoing formation of Catholic business leaders, equipping them to grow in faith, virtue, and leadership. Through inspiring speakers, enriching retreats, and thought-provoking discussions, our members deepen their understanding of Church teachings and apply them to their professional and personal lives. We cultivate a culture of lifelong growth, empowering members to lead with wisdom, integrity, and a Christ-centered vision in all aspects of life.
- Fellowship
  
  When you become part of Legatus, you aren’t merely adding your name to a member list or joining a social club. Legatus members actively come together to encourage one another in their professional and spiritual lives. We help our fellow Catholic business leaders by being witnesses of faith together in our workplaces, sharing best practices, enjoying quality time at gatherings and events, and developing lifelong friendships rooted in Christ.

It’s one of the many powerful ways we can help grow the Church, both locally and nationally."

  "I have nearly 100 employees now, and when you have employees, you still face employee issues. You still face ethical issues. You have the challenge of being a good Catholic leader and forming your people. And Legatus comes into all of that and walks with us through it.”

  "The best experiences I’ve had in my life have been through Legatus. It supports everyone on their personal journey of faith. At the heart of every Legatus event is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass—which, in my experience, becomes an incredibly powerful force. Over time, we hear exceptional homilies from brilliant Catholic cardinals, bishops, and priests, as well as inspiring talks from world-class speakers—delivering messages that truly become part of your life."
