Contact Information
The Rev. Shirley Bowen is Missioner for Campus Ministry for the Episcopal Diocese of Maine. She has worked on college campuses for 30 years and is well versed in finding ways to engage the campus community in a spiritual journey. She is also a half-time parish priest in Biddeford, Maine and Executive Director of the Seeds of Hope Neighborhood Center, one of the Jubilee Centers in the Diocese.
Campus ministry in the Diocese of Maine aspires to engage colleges and universities in Maine with the Church in all its forms. Our goal is to share the Good News as received in the Episcopal Church; be an agent for change; offer sacramental moments into the context of higher education; and enlarge the landscape – it is different when God is present. Please accept this sincere invitation to check out Campus Ministry in Maine. We would love to meet you!
