Midcoast Outreach
The Midcoast Outreach and Peace Center operates under the capable leadership of Sue Rockwood as Coordinator. We strive to plan relevant activities to be staged at the Meeting House on a regular basis.
In addition to our own planned events the Midcoast Outreach and Peace Center has adopted the Ecumenical Diaper Bank as an initiative to which we provide administrative and other support. Sue Rockwood, our Coordinator, is Manager of the
Ecumenical Diaper Bank. We also allowed a Diaper House to be built in the meetinghouse parking area for storage of diapers. For further information or to volunteer please contact us.
Our Coordinator also helps to maintain an e-mail list and calendar for People United Against Racism (PUAR), an affiliation of churches, individuals, and other groups in our area who are committed to internal study and reflection about white privilege and racism, fostering dialogue in our community about dismantling racism, and engaging in public witness.

The Peace Center
The Peace Center grows from a commitment to peaceful ways to resolve conflict and ways of living that protect our natural environment. Through public dialogue in our Midcoast Maine communities we seek to understand and support policies and practices that promote peace and environmental justice.
Since its founding in 2008, The Center has convened public dialogues and held film series on U.S. foreign engagements in conflicts in the Middle East, Central America and Asia, on issues of sustainable farming and fishing in Maine and on alternative energy resources in Maine. These programs are convened in collaboration with like-minded groups and congregations. Each gathering seeks to share personal and professional concerns and to take collective initiatives to witness and strengthen our community commitments to peace and environmental justice.
