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. 
 
January 5th is Communion. 
 
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. 
 
We will be taking down the Christmas greens Saturday the 4th of January at 9 am.  All are welcome to come and help put them away. ​
