The challenge we face is that by 2010, Maine will have only 61 active diocesan priests. Even with clustering, these few cannot meet the pastoral needs of 235,000 Catholics spread across our vast state. They will need the assistance of competent people in our communities. The practice of the faith in Maine, as we know it today, is changing and challenging us now.
The purpose of this blog is to offer a forum for MaineCatholicsTogether to find practical ways to sustain us as faithful people in communities entrusted with embodying the message of Jesus.
