Shirley Bowen
Shirley Bowen is the Executive Director/Chaplain at Seeds of Hope Neighborhood Center in Biddeford, Maine, and helped bring the Jubilee Center into being in 2008. Seeds of Hope is a Mission Enterprise Zone of The Episcopal Church.
While serving as parish priest at Christ Church, Biddeford from 2007 – 2012, Shirley worked with the vestry and members of Christ Church as they discerned and acted on God's call to transform the church from serving as an Episcopal parish to its new role as the Seeds of Hope Neighborhood Center, a different understanding of the meaning of church. Shirley has also served as the Campus Missioner for the Diocese of Maine.
