Province I is one of nine provinces in The Episcopal Church and consists of the nine dioceses in New England.
The Episcopal Diocese of Maine is committed to the prevention of abuse of all forms. We want to help the church to be a safe place and believe that requiring safe church training is one aspect of honoring our baptismal vows to “respect the dignity of every human being.”
All matters of clergy misconduct will be reported to an intake officer for the diocese. Matters might then be resolved through pastoral care, mediation, an agreement with the bishop, an investigation or any combination of these. An investigation may result in formal mediation, and, if necessary, a hearing.
All-ages came together for the Episcopal Diocese of Maine's Annual Summer Finale to gather, pray, and rest from Sept. 13-15 at Camp Bishopswood.
Congregations are invited to apply for Strategic Congregational Support (SCS) from the diocese each year as the budget is prepared.
