Kid Junction
A Ministry Assisting Families with Children
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.
It is open from 10:00-12 Noon on the 3rd Monday of each month.

Fall UMW Annual Meeting at Lake Junaluska was a wonderful weekend for six of our girls; plus two from Mt. Olivet and one from Independence. We’re now looking forward to our next trip in April for SEE. Our regular October meeting will be at the church on the 13th at 10:00 a.m. Judy White has the program. Please come and join us. UMW Sunday will be October 18th and Janet Jonas from Pulaski will be our guest speaker sharing news from UMCOR. — Peggy Chappell
“Every shoebox offers an opportunity to share the Good News of Jesus Christ with a hurting child.” — Franklin Graham (President, Samaritan’s Purse)
This year FUMC will have pre-printed boxes available for you to fill. They will be available the first of October and to be returned the first of November. Should you want to fill a shoebox but cannot come to the church to pick one up, please let Sandy in the church office (236-9937), or someone from the Agape Sunday School Class, know and we’ll make sure to get you one.
The Missions Committee would like to thank you ALL for your generous support of Samaritan’s Purse ‘OPERATION HEAL OUR PATRIOTS’. And WE (all of us who ate) want to thank LARRY GRABMAN & his ‘cooking crew’ (Jim Marshall, Richard Farmer, Edwin Tompkins, Jerry Cox) for the delicious chicken & homemade ice cream; and everyone else on the Missions, UMW and Programs Committees for the salads and cookies! There was only 12-15 pieces of chicken left (125+ were cooked) and a tub of macaroni salad—which was brought to Hope House for those in the shelter to enjoy. Again, THANK YOU EVERYONE!
