Loading the Van

Fidgety, that is probably
the best way to describe us
a ragtag gathering by the van
loading a week’s supplies, provisions,
the stuff we need
Pacing in place, antsy for the start,
the getting underway, embarking
on our mission trip,
anticipating, expectant,
ready to go, to do, to be
the Master’s instruments,
His Hands, downeast.

Our mission trip,
from Wesley United Methodist Church,
Concord, NH and from First United Methodist Church,
Hudson, MA to Jacksonville and Machias, ME
to the Down East Maine Mission,
Jacksonville United Methodist Campground,
East Machias, ME
