All adults working with youth are welcome to reach out to Emily Keniston for support or connections in this work or if you have any questions about faith formation.
The Racial Justice Council in the Episcopal Diocese of Maine has partnered with the Racial Reconciliation Commission in The Episcopal Church in New Hampshire and through a Province I grant, has purchased one traveling Welcoming Library for each diocese. These libraries, curated and created by Portland non-profit I’m Your Neighbor Books, are visiting churches for month-long visits. The library comes in two boxes and includes 30 books about immigrant and New American experiences, a wooden display, and resources for discussion and prayer. Please email Emily Keniston if you’d like to be put on the list to host Maine’s Welcoming Library!
Here’s some other ways to be connected with people in other Maine Episcopal churches who do ministry with children and youth.
