Dear Priests-in-Charge and Senior Wardens,

Last April I was very pleased when 150 Maine Episcopalians from 36 congregations participated in our diocesan education day, Spring Training. This year I hope the good word has spread and many of you and your fellow members will attend Spring Training 2017 on Saturday, April 29. Registration is now open and all members of the Diocese of Maine are invited to attend. We are grateful to St. Paul's in Brunswick for again hosting the day which will run from 9 a.m. to 3:15 p.m.

Participants are offered the choice of 21 workshops in areas such as spiritual growth, formation, music, communication, church leadership, outreach and more. We'll pause at mid-day to gather, worship, sing, and hear more about change in our wider culture and the role the church may play in our communities.
 
My hope is that Spring Training 2017 will help to prepare us to take our place in The Jesus Movement. 

I ask your help in sharing the opportunity by forwarding this email to your membership and sharing this flyer or this bulletin insert as widely as possible.

Links to these materials, information about the day, full workshop descriptions, a registration link, may be found on our diocesan home page at
 www.episcopalmaineorg
 or register directly at

I look forward to seeing you on April 29. 
 
Faithfully, 
Bishop Steve
 
The Rt. Rev. Stephen T. Lane
Bishop of Maine
