“If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”

That African proverb captures the essence of September’s “Mission of the Month”—the Maine Council of Churches, a coalition of seven Protestant denominations, including the Episcopal Diocese of Maine.

MCC brings 400 congregations (including St. Mary’s) and 50,000 parishioners of its member denominations together, and together they go further than they could on their own.

Come learn more about the Council and meet Executive Director Rev. Jane Field at the Formation program between services, 9:15am, on Sunday, September 14.
