Dear Bishop and delegates from the Diocese of Maine,
The people of God at St. Saviour’s gave thanks for your service and prayed for guidance at our Annual Meeting on June 28th. Though the challenges are many, we believe that this is an exciting time for us as a Diocese and a denomination.
God speed and be of good courage,
Jonathan Appleyard, Rector

Greetings & Best Wishes to Bishop Lane & Delegates,
Special prayers and blessings to you … Your work at the Convention is so very important, requiring faith, patience and strength.
Please know that, as the difficult questions are brought forward, your courage, wisdom and compassion is greatly appreciated by many of us who are following your activity from afar.
May you also find a voice, as needed, to speak out on behalf the elderly, the children, the less fortunate, and all who are oppressed. It does take courage to speak out for those who cannot defend themselves – and it must be done.
Thank you, Steve & Gretchen, for using technology to help keep us all informed of current happenings at the Convention.
Sincerely Yours, Pamela VanWechel
