About the Portland
Peninsula and Island Parishes |
Cluster 21 is a
diverse Catholic community. It is made up of five parishes, four in
the city of Portland, Maine within a two-mile radius and one on Peaks
Island. Each parish boasts of a robust community, a unique mission,
and a proud tradition.
- The Cathedral of
the Immaculate Conception Parish on Congress Street is the Mother
Church of the diocese and seat of the Bishop of Portland.
- Sacred Heart/
St. Dominic Parish on Mellen Street is a blended community developed
since the closure of St. Dominic Church in 1992, serving a vibrant
multi-cultural community.
- St. Louis Parish
on Danforth Street is a Polish National Church.
- St. Peter Parish
on Federal Street is an Italian National Church.
- St. Christopher
Church on Peaks Island is a year-round community and its mission,
Star of the Sea Church on Long Island, is active only in the summer.
One overriding principle guides
the leadership of the Cluster, that the unique cultural identity and
mission of each present Parish should be preserved, while celebrating
the diversity that makes our cluster so rich.
The five Parishes comprising
Cluster 21 includes persons of African, French, Hispanic, Irish,
Italian, Polish, Vietnamese, and many other heritages. In addition our
parishioners are of diverse socio-economic levels, health, age, and
states of life. While most reside in Portland, many live in
communities outside of Portland, drawn to our parishes because they
offer unique and rich spiritual and communal experiences.
Welcome to Cluster 21,
the Peninsula
and Island Parishes of Portland, Maine.
