Dedication Mass - Orono

All are invited to celebrate the reopening and dedication of Our Lady of Wisdom Church in Orono, also known as the UMaine Newman Center. Bishop Ruggieri will celebrate the Mass of Dedication on October 2nd at 11:30 AM. UMaine Alumni are especially invited.

"This occasion marks not only the renewal of a sacred space, but also a renewal of mission. The Newman Center at the University of Maine has, for generations, been a beacon of faith, fellowship, and formation for our college-aged young people. It stands at the heart of our diocesan outreach to students, drawing sons and daughters from every parish in the Diocese of Portland. Through prayer, worship, and community, the Newman Center has borne lasting fruit in the Church—forming disciples for the married life, religious life, and the priesthood, and sending forth men and women who continue to enrich parishes wherever life takes them." - Bishop Ruggieri
