Ave Maria! Volunteers are needed for Catholic Worker adventures in Maine: help establish a pandemic-proof house of hospitality comprised of outdoor works of mercy on the grounds of Mary's House and a community of homestead hermitages, .03 acres per person, at Mary's Wood, both in Springfield, Maine (74 miles NE of Bangor).


Needed:

  • Person(s) and/or family(ies) to live at Mary's House during and after renovations and set-up of 14 outdoor stations for works of mercy plus farm and garden.

  • Person(s) to transport volunteer staff and guests between Portland and Springfield.

  • Likeminded folks to help brainstorm possibilities for locating a similar set-up in the Portland area.

  • Volunteers to staff Maine locations in Springfield, Lowell (40 miles NE of Bangor), and Portland.

  • Other help, accepted!

No fundraising. No solicitation of donations. Materials for renovations and construction will be gleaned, harvested or salvaged from God's Providence.


All interested volunteers, guests, and well-wishers may contact Mary's Ward at selby@marysward.com or 207-894-4153.


Peace.

May God bless you and Mary keep you.
