Homily at the 300th Anniversary Mass
On the 300th anniversary of the Norridgewock Massacre, August 23, 2024, Fr. James Nadeau, pastor of Christ the King Parish in Skowhegan, Madison and Bingham, offered Mass at the site of the attack. During his homily, Fr. Nadeau brings the site to life as he describes where on these grounds the church, the school, and other places were and what happened there.
Why did Fr. Rale Come to Norridgewock?
The day after the anniversary Mass, Joe Moreshead offered the following reflection on Fr. Rale’s life for the opening of the annual Fr. Rale pilgrimage. The talk explores the motives that drove Fr. Rale: not wealth, not power, not ambition, but rather faith and love.
