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

Prayer Pals
This fall, we are starting a new program called Prayer Pals.
What is Prayer Pals?
Prayer Pals is a new program for our church. Children, teens and adults will be paired up to pray for each other. This program will run during the school year.
What will be expected of me?
Pray for your prayer pal! However, we hope that you will use the program to develop a friendship with your pal as well. This could be as simple as saying hello during the greeting, sitting together at a dinner, or sending a birthday card.
Will we do anything else?
We plan to have a kick-off picnic in late August, and maybe a couple more events during the year.
Some specifics
Every child who wants a prayer pal will get one. Because we have a lot of teens that attend regularly, we want to give them some options. Teens may decide that they would like to pray with/for a younger child, that they would like an adult prayer pal, or both. Hopefully this will be a growing experience for this group.
If you would like to participate in this program, please fill out the appropriate sheet for you! Each child in a family should have his/her own form to help pair children with their new pal.
