The Board of Christian Education (BOCE) consists of six elected members and a representative from the following fellowship groups: Women's Fellowship, Brotherhood, Senior Youth, and the CIA Fellowship. They are in charge of the education of the church with such programs as Sunday School and VBS. They also put on special events like the Easter Egg Hunt and our Fall Festival.
