A Message from Black Bear Catholic / Newman Center
<p>The Newman Center is a gathering place for the Catholic community at the University of Maine in Orono. The Newman Center, also known as Our Lady of Wisdom Church, is part of the&nbsp;<a href="http://resurrectionofthelord.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Parish of the Resurrection of the Lord</a>, with three additional churches in Old Town, Bradley, and the Penobscot Nation.</p><p>As a&nbsp;parish, we welcome all members of the University community: students, faculty, staff, and administrators, as well as their families. Visitors and residents of our parish communities are always welcome!</p><p>As a&nbsp;campus ministry center, we have a special ministry to University students. We welcome Catholics and those who are interested in knowing more about the Catholic faith.</p><p>Students gather for liturgy, retreats, outreach to those in need, social events, religious study, and sacrament preparation; and the chapel is always available for prayer!</p><p>We encourage students to study at the center, and free WiFi is available for that purpose. We also have space for cooking, a collection of board games, various outdoor games for temperate weather fun, and a vast collection of books to peruse if you need a break from textbooks.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>**The Newman Center is closed for construction during the 2021-22 school year.
