Gorham Notes: May 6
St. Anne’s outdoor Mass and rosary rally set
Everyone is invited to gather at St. Anne’s Church at 299 Main St. in Gorham on Saturday, May 15, for an outdoor Mass and public rosary rally.
Confessions will be offered at 10 a.m., followed by the outdoor Mass at 11 a.m. and rosary rally at noon.
In 2017, Dan and Ellen Kasprzyk learned about a movement entitled “America Needs Fatima” that encourages individuals and families to come together to recite the rosary, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Portland said in a press release.
“During that year, thousands of individuals around the country gathered once a month to publicly pray the rosary in honor of Our Lady of Fatima, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the appearance of Mary to three young visionaries in the town of Fatima, Portugal,” the release said.

PORT FOURCHON, La. (AP) Divers searching the site of a capsized lift boat off Louisiana recovered two more unresponsive crewmembers late Friday, the Coast Guard said after another day of frantic waiting by family members worried for the fate of those who went missing earlier this week.
Petty Officer Jonathan Lally, a Coast Guard spokesman, declined to elaborate on the latest two found and referred questions from The Associated Press to a local coroner. A Coast Guard statement said commercial divers on the capsized Seacor Power lift boat found the crewmembers. But the Coast Guard said it was not releasing the names of any of those rescued, recovered or still missing out of respect for the privacy of their families.
