LAUREL — Northeast Jones Junior Beta Club recently presented a check to the Christian Food Mission (CFM) in recognition of the necessary and invaluable service the organization provides to the residents of the area. Accepting for the CFM, director Robert Smith stated, “We are totally donation dependent, so this donation is very greatly appreciated! The weak economy has resulted in decreased donations to the Mission and has increased the number of people needing services. This donation could not have arrived at a better time!” The CFM receives no governmental funding choosing to operate solely through voluntary contributions of services and gifts given by churches, interested individuals, and businesses. The CFM provides one meal per day at the Laurel Chantilly Street location, operates a food bank for grocery distribution to the needy, and delivers meals to the elderly and shut-in five days a week via the Meals-On-Wheels program. The Northeast Jones Junior Beta Club is sponsored by Mrs. Ann Tucker, Mrs. Frances Hill, and Mrs. Connie Wade. Support of the Christian Food Mission is one of many service projects members will undertake during the school year.

Boundaries
Just as each of us has a need for physical safety, we also have a need for emotional or psychological safety. Boundaries is the term we use to define what helps us feel safe and comfortable in relationships. We have all had the experience of feeling like another person was closer to us physically than was comfortable. So too it is important to define for yourself how close you want to be with others emotionally. Naturally, this varies with who the other person is.
