Mission Statement
We the members of the North Buffalo Presbyterian Church understand that God has bound us together spiritually as the body of Jesus Christ. We understand that God has called us to be Christ's church, to represent God in the world and carry God's reconciling work and message to the world. In response to God's love and care, we have committed ourselves to carrying that mission by:
- Honoring and praising God in our worship
- Proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ and reaching out to others with the good news
- Teaching the Scriptures and Christian ideas and devoting ourselves to personal study and prayer
- Providing fertile ground where people's relationships to God can grow and where talents are recognized and put to use in the work of the kingdom
- Living as examples of Jesus Christ and glorifying God through our lives
- Caring for each other and providing opportunities for fellowship
- Reaching out to our community and our world through our service and stewardship of our resources

In June, the session and trustees determined that North Buffalo will reopen for Sunday morning worship only on July 5. The letter linked below was sent via email, and was mailed to those without email addresses. Please read this letter carefully. In order to safely open, there are several safety measures that we must take, which are included in the letter.

As we begin to reopen, the adult Sunday School lesson will be still available on Sunday morning at 10:00 am on our website on the Sunday Sermons page. The Sunday School class will not be meeting in person yet.
The in-person worship service will be recorded on Sunday mornings. That service will be available both on our Facebook page and on our website on the Sunday Sermons page. However, the worship service will now post Sunday afternoon. As we are going to be learning how this will work, the exact time is not certain just yet. These will still be available to view at your convenience, including sermons and lessons from previous weeks.

Upcoming Events
Operation Christmas Child
We can not forget those that are less fortunate than us. For years we have filled many Shoeboxes for Samaritan’s Purse to be shipped overseas in time for Christmas. We would still like to keep that going this year.
Shoeboxes are waiting for you at the church. If you are not able to come Sunday to get yours, we will try to make other arrangements. Bryan Bell will be at the church this Wednesday Oct. 28 from 1:30-3:00PM so that you may pick a couple up to be filled. You can also call Pastor Gary to meet you.
Boxes with your check inside (for shipping) must be at the church for pickup by Sunday Nov. 15.
