Church of St. Mary Mission Statement
The Mission of St. Mary Parish, the Roman Catholic community serving Portland and surrounding towns, under the protection of Mary, Mother of Christ, is to preach, to teach, and to live the Gospel of Christ in our daily lives.
Through our communal and individual prayer, we preach the Gospel in liturgical settings, calling all people to live fully Christ’s injunction to “love God and love thy neighbor.” We call all members of our community to participate fully in the celebration of the sacraments, especially the Eucharist.
Through Religious Education programs for children and adults we teach the Gospel of Christ, calling all members to grow in their knowledge of the faith, so that they might grow in their personal encounter with God and more fully integrate the Great Commandments into their daily lives.
Through support of community outreach programs and efforts within the community to assist all those in need, we are called to live the Gospel of Christ through loving service of our neighbors and our brothers and sisters throughout the world.

Protecting Our Youth
From Bishop Cote:
There is no higher priority within the Diocese of Norwich than the protection and spiritual welfare of our young. We continue our longstanding commitment to the support and healing of victim-survivors of abuse and we reaffirm our commitment to protect our children, young people, and vulnerable adults from harm. It is important that we all know and understand the progress of our diocesan policies, protocols, and training concerning abuse prevention and the protection of children and young people. For this information, please visit the website of the Office of Safe Environments for the Diocese of Norwich.https://www.norwichdiocese.org/Find/Diocesan-Offices/Safe-Environments
