Maine Seacoast Mission’s 74-foot flagship vessel Sunbeam is set to host an open house from 3-7 p.m. Saturday, July 27, at Brown’s Wharf in Boothbay Harbor.
People can tour Sunbeam and learn more about the mission’s work in coastal Washington County and on outer, unbridged islands.
Mission programming via Sunbeam regularly provides support through community building, education initiatives, and education services. In addition, a full-time nurse offers flu and Covid vaccination clinics, leads a network of eldercare facilities, provides healthcare check-ups, and connects residents to mainland specialists. Islands served include Chebeague, Cliff Island, Frenchboro, Great Cranberry, Great Diamond, Isle au Haut, Islesboro, Islesford, Long Island, Matinicus, Monhegan, North Haven, Vinalhaven, Peaks and Swan’s.
Rooted in a history of compassionate service and mutual trust, Maine Seacoast Mission seeks to strengthen coastal and island communities by educating youth, supporting families, and promoting good health.
