The Diocese of Portland in collaboration with the Maine Catholic Women’s Conference Planning Committee will host the 13th Maine Catholic Women’s Conference on Saturday, April 18, 2026, at the St. John's Community Center, 43 Pleasant Street in Brunswick. The conference is a joy-filled opportunity for Catholic women ages 16 and older to come together to celebrate their Catholic faith.

Conference Features
Our Keynote Speaker for the 2026 Maine Catholic Women’s Conference is Christine Eberle. She is the author of Finding God Along the Way: Wisdom from the Ignatian Camino for Life at Home, as well as two books of daily meditations based on true stories. After a 26-year career as a college campus minister, in 2019 Christine ended her tenure as director of Campus Ministry at Gwynedd Mercy University to commit to a full-time ministry of writing, speaking, and retreat facilitation. She divides her time between Philadelphia, where she serves as a cantor in her parish, St. Vincent DePaul, and a family cottage in West Boothbay Harbor, where she enjoys “shoulder season” each spring and fall.
