Reverend Eugene M. Boger has been named as the new minister for Rivertown United Methodist Church.

Rev. Boger is the youngest pastor assigned to the church in its 119th year history.

Reverend Boger was born on May 27, 1974 in Los Angeles, California. An honor student educated in the Los Angeles Unified School District, Reverend Boger graduated from Downtown Business Magnet High School. Raised by his great-grandmother in the gang and drug infested streets of South Central Los Angeles, Reverend Boger became a product of the church, and not his environment.

Prior to arriving at Rivertown, he served as senior pastor of Poplar Spring United Methodist Church in Atlanta.

A proven civic leader, Reverend Boger holds memberships in the NAACP, Concerned Black Clergy of Atlanta, Black Methodist for Church Renewal, The Wilderness Society, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc., and is the Grand Chaplain for the Mount Moriah Grand Lodge of Atlanta Scottish Rite Masonry.
