ANNOUNCEMENTS: 
 
CALL TO WORSHIP: 
Great is the LORD, and most worthy of praise. 
   Like your name, O God, Your praise reaches to the ends  
   of the earth. 
This is our God forever and ever. 
   He will be our guide even to the end. 
Worthy is the LORD!  Come now and give him praise! 
   
INVOCATION

*Hymn  “Lord, I Want to Be a Christian” # 729  
 
* PRAYER OF CONFESSION: 
Lord, we confess today that our hearts have not been given fully 
to You.   There have been times when the Gospel has thrilled us,  
when Jesus seemed so precious to us and other times when  
everything else seemed more important than the Savior.  Forgive 
us for giving our attention to anything above Your Son.  Forgive us 
for treasuring any worldly message above the message of the  
Gospel.  See us not as we are but as Your Son is and give us hearts 
that treasure what You have done through Your Son above anything 
else in this world.  Amen

Remember our food collection, and Jesus said,  
“You give them something to eat”. 
Please let Betty Fisher know of anyone within  
the community that may be in need at this time. 
 
Dartball is Tuesday at St. James Church,119 W. Chestnut St., Washington, Pa.  Practice starts at 7pm and game starts at 7:30.  
 
Next year will be North Buffalo’s 250th anniversary!   
As one way to celebrate our years of blessings, we want  
to give back to our community, each month we will have 
a project with a goal that has a 25 in it.  
For January we will hold a blanket drive.  Our goal is to collect enough blankets for 25 families in Charleroi, through a Presbyterian Church there.  This should be about 100 blankets.  Starting in January we will have boxes to collect the blankets. 
 
I believe we start our WOW meetings again Wednesday the 8th at 9:30 am in the social hall. 
 
Hope everyone had a happy and safe new year! 
 
Let's pray for the families of the New Orleans tragedy. ​
