Stand with us as we line the halls of the State House in silent witness to the 418 lives lost to overdose in Maine last year. Then join your voices with ours in prayer and song in the rotunda as we call for a moral budget that saves lives and offers hope.

Convocation 2020
Engaged Hope: Grounded Leadership in an Era of Ecological Emergency
his year’s Convocation will invite faith leaders and faith communities to be part of a transformative response to the current climate crisis. These times require spiritually grounded leaders who embrace an active, embodied practice of hope — leaders who dismiss the paths of denial and despair and choose to live in a state of engagement. This kind of hope is different from passive optimism — it is a way of being in the world, rooted in faith, expressed in action, and sustained by contemplative practice.
