On Oct. 15, 2016, the Northern Maine District gathered at Old Town United Methodist Church to officially welcome its new District Superintendent Jackie Brannen.

In her sermon on Saturday, Rev. Brannen said:

"My prayer for the Northern Maine District is a simple one. I pray that this district of United Methodists will be united with each other and with the world through deep personal and corporate relationships with Christ. I pray that we will all devote our selves more to prayer and less to meetings or other church activities. I pray that our deepened connection with God will propel us toward our neighbors so that these neighbors will become friends and these friends will find Jesus."
