ISLE AU HAUT — From Sunbeam steward, Jillian. “It is last winter and I’m posing with my new friend in front of the Isle au Haut school. I asked Douglas to take the photo because this snowman sculpture made by Billie Barter instantly charmed me. He made it as a gift for the school children.”
Learn more about Jillian’s work aboard the Sunbeam.
It’s Thank you Thursday. Today’s shout out of Mission love goes to local elementary schools that partner for programming with Maine Seacoast Mission’s EdGE Program: Milbridge Elementary, Cherryfield Elementary, Harrington Elementary, DW Merritt Elementary (Addison), Jonesport Elementary, Beals Elementary, and Rose M. Gaffney Elementary (Machias).
EdGE provides after-school and in-school programming for students at these schools. EdGE after-school programs are an opportunity for students to choose from a variety of experiential, creative, and thought-provoking activities. EdGE in-school programming ranges from leadership activities to team building and trust activities.
Most EdGE staff for after-school programs are teachers who work at the school during the day. Collaboration with these teachers and administrators makes EdGE successful. Thank you all for supporting and providing EdGE to Washington County children.
This is what community looks like.
NORTHEAST HARBOR, ME — From Jillian today – “Here’s a photo I took of unpacking and restocking the galley after the refit. Feels so good to settle-in aboard the Sunbeam.”
Such heartwarming news. Thank you, Jillian.
P.S. Love the portable radio by the porthole.

Scott Shaw says, “Mission plow is ready…bring it on!”
