The mission of the Board of Christian Outreach (BOCO) is to improve the lives of those in need in the greater Norwalk area with love and compassion.

 

It accomplishes this primarily by benevolently dispersing funds to agencies; offering mission and service programs; holding drives and collections of food, toys, clothing, and more; and by providing informative and educational material to our Family of Faith.

 

Responding to the very real needs that people have today.  R.D.

 

Each year, BOCO is assigned a significant portion of the church’s annual budget, which is used to provide unrestricted financial support to local non-profit agencies.  Throughout the year, it holds drives and collections of food, toys, clothing, and more, enabling it to give over $5,000 of material to agencies for distribution.

 

BOCO administers the Emig Fund, a unique grant program for special project support that falls within the parameters of BOCO’s mission statement.

 

In this church, we strive to be more like Jesus.  BOCO, our outreach ministry, is one way in which we are able to help those in need.   K.T.

BOCO participates in Our Church’s Wider Mission, a program of the United Church of Christ that addresses social, economic, justice, and environmental needs at national and global levels.  It also hosts a monthly Red Cross blood drive.
