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!

HAPPENINGS WITH KID’S JUNCTION
Sunday Reflection (November 12, 2023)
We Methodists do not have honorific titles for our ministers such as Rabbi, Father, or Master as in a Zen Master, but we do have honorific titles such as Reverend, Reverend Dr., Professor, Bishop, or as I am called at home: Most Holy Reverend (that one I made up). More appropriately my dear cousin Greg Dixon called me Rev. Nut.
Yes, we have our own set of honorific titles, and anyone can use an honorific title to lord it over others, and yes, Reverends, Bishops, and Professors have been guilty of that. The point is this: Do we desire the title without the service or gain the title because of our service? Matthew tells us of Pharisees and Scribes who like anyone with an honorific title can abuse the position. Matthew points out that humility comes first (Matthew 23:1-12).
Prayer for the Week (November 12-November 18, 2023)
Let us pray that our life does not turn our faith into a lie: Lord God, through the Holy Spirit, you keep speaking your Word to us revealed in Jesus Christ. May we listen to that Word and may that Word change our mentality and our ways for all to see and to follow. May it be the living power that leads all to give you praise and glory, through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
