The New York Western First Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction with its headquarters in Rochester, New York is home to 90 churches from Binghamton to Buffalo.  The Bishop James R. Wright, Sr., Institution of Christian Education serves as the educational and professional development arm of the jurisdiction. 

The  goal is to provide education and training for the whole family, helping to equip our members to participate in training and development to improve academic achievement, cultural awareness, and health and wellness in a safe and supportive learning environment.  By nurturing the development of children’s and adult’s social, health/wellness and academic-wellbeing, particularly in the Rochester city community, the ultimate goal of the Institute of Christian Education is to provide biblically based education, training and development and empower its participants to serve more effectively and efficiently in their local, district, jurisdictional, and national assemblies and communities. 

This year, during the week of August 10th- through August 14th, the Institute held it annual training & development at the Roberts Wesleyan Campus in Rochester, New York.  This has been the site of the Institute since approximately 2010.  Attendance this year was a record 200+ pre-registrants.  Also, in attendance, was the youth and some members of Joint-Heirs Kingdom Ministries, located in Rochester, NY, whose pastor, Elder Darryl Carter, allowed them to be a part of the Institute.  Their excitement and attendance has inspired the pastor to request that all his leadership team be registrants in 2016.  The NYW #1 Health Fair on Wednesday afternoon was supported by visits from the local Fire & Police Department, Nutrition Poster Board Presentation by Nurse Nadia Welch, Rn; blood pressure and oxygen checks by Nurse Weiber;  massage and natural oil and lotion products presented by Linda Harrell-Davis, a local and registered massage therapist and co-owner of “Wade & Me” Salon.

Since 2005, the Bishop James R. Wright, Sr., Institute of Christian Education, with its headquarters in Rochester, NY and classes being held on the Roberts Wesleyan College campus, has continued. It has a current Board of approximately 15 dedicated members, numerous instructors, volunteers, and operations staff. The Institute has not only met the biblical curriculum of the New York Western First Ecclesiastical Jurisdictional prelate, but has expanded its programs to include health and nutrition initiatives, religious and software classes, liturgical dance, orchestra, back-to-school academic activities, athletic and recreational activities not only for the Church of God In Christ adults and youth, but for all attendees in the Rochester, NY community.
