What is Kid Junction?
It is a local mission provided by and operated through the
Galax First United Methodist Church on W. Center St. (across from the Fire Department).
It is funded by donations and staffed by volunteers.
It serves families with children (birth through middle school age)
once every four months if needed.
Each child in the family receives personal hygiene items: toothbrush, toothpaste,
body wash, a washcloth, diapers, wipes, lotion for babies, one set of clothing
(new or slightly used), underwear, shoes, socks, etc. at NO CHARGE!
Backpacks if needed and available.

HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Prayer for the Week (Feb. 2-Feb. 8)
Let us pray to God who has revealed the divine kingdom in Christ: God, in Christ, you declared what is blessed and proclaimed that our joy is to be found in your kingdom. Your kingdom honors what the word despises: Weakness, poverty, mourning, mercy, pity, meekness, purity, peace. May Christ’s Church and our lives reveal your kingdom. Amen.

Sunday Reflection (February 2, 2020)
To do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with God are reflections of our commitment to God and others that goes beyond the basic legal requirements (Micah 6:-8). The motivating factor is not fear, coercion, or manipulation, but love. Many in the days of Micah attempted to please God at a superficial level. Much like when we ask God, “what can I do” hoping that the answer is “nothing” or “not much.” Nevertheless, what basic everyday things are within your reach in your response to God when it comes to doing justice, loving-kindness, and walking humbly with God?
Sunday Reflection (January 26, 2020)
Simon Peter, Andrew, James and John were confronted by that light that shined in Galilee when Jesus said: “Follow me” (Matthew 4:18-22). It is “follow me” in the sense of learning a way of life. It is learning a way of life in response to that light that shines in the darkness of human sin, hatred, malice, and violence. Through the Holy Spirit, may that light shine in the midst of darkness. I close with these words of St. Bede: May that morning star which never sets, Christ our light, find us aflame with love until the world is enlightened with love.
