ed to the church with colorful
ceremony by William E. Mat
thews's Young Mems Bible Glass
in honor and in memory of men,
bers of that class who served in
the armed forces during World
War II.
Of all these additions and i'm
provements, probably the most
heralded is the lighted church
steeple and tower of music that
can be seen from along the Du-
Pont Highway as a dignified en-
blem of the faith and hope of
Christianity. In regards to this
illuminated tower, Mr.. Green stat
ed, 1T is my conviction that the
church should have a message to
the people of the community and
to the passerby at night as well as
in the day, and that the church
should not be blacked out at night
when no services are being con-
Quoted. The Asbury steeple is one
of the most graceful steeples in
America. Illuminated so that it
can be seen for several miles, it is
like a slender finger pointing up
ward in the darkness of the night,
reminding man to look up for Di-
vine courage"
When the lights of the steeple
go on, they also illuminate STAIN
ed glass window with the open
Bible over the entrance to the
church.
Mr.. Green's ideas on church ad-
Smyrna times., 1948-04-29

are summed up in his
'T believe the church
should not be a one day a week in
stitution but, instead, should be
open seven days a week, minister
ing to the children, youth and
adults of the community" He
also believes that the ministry has
three important functions; namely,
the preaching ministry, the teach
ing ministry and the pastoral or
visiting ministry.
When asked his opinion of teen
ayers, Mr.. Green replied, ST be-
lieve in the youth of today. I sim
cerely think that modern young
people have as high ideals as the
youth of previous generations" In
line with this belief much atten-
tion has been given, during Mr..
Green's ministry in Smyrna, to
the youth program which has pro-
vided many creative activities in
the form of dramatics, music and
other recreational functions. Dur
ing the last war, Mr.. Green found
time apart from his many pressing
duties, to correspond with local
men who were in the service, keep
ing them advised as to the activ-
tiles of the community and of As
bury church.
Also in keeping with his policy
of youth programs, fund is being
created for a new Asbury Memoir
ial building to make more ade-
quate provisions for church school
instruction and to give recreation
al facilities for youths and adults
alike.
Mr.. Green, who has become an
integral part of Smyrna in his five
years at Asbury, holds the COM
munity of Smyrna in high regard.
He says, zone can feel its cultural
atmosphere and its people are
noted for their friendliness and CO.
operative spirit"
Besides his civic and pastoral
duties, he is an ardent gardener

world today.
Born in Wilmington, Del, the
son of Mr.. and Mrs William Green,
he received his early education in
the public schools of that city and
later attended Wesley Collegiate
Institute at Dover which is now
Wesley Junior College. He grad
uated from Washington College in
1880 and did graduate work at
Boston University where he receiv-
ed his master degree and his bach
elor degree in Sacred Theology. He
also has taken courses at Harvard,
University of Maryland and Union
Theological School in New York.
Mr.. Green married Cora Nc
Whorter while they were both stu
dents at Washington College. Mrs.
Green was an honor student and
was named as May Queen of the
college. Mr.. and Mrs. Green now
have three children: Bobby, 13,
Carolee, 10, and little Mary Sus-
anna who is a cute and lovable
three month old tot.
In 1888 Mr.. Green was ordained
by Bishop Ada Leonard at Reho-
both and Immediately became pas
tor of the Greenwood, Del, Meth
odist Church.
Coming to Smyrna in 1943, Mr..
Green began his active participa-
tion, not only in the church, but in
civic affairs as well. During his
term as president of the Smyrna
Rotary Club the Boy Scout move
ment in Smyrna, which was rapid
ly declining, was revived. The
club also established the Rotary
Scholarship fund and the Junior
Rotarian system during his pres
idency.
Mr.. Green is chaplain of the
State Welfare Home, a member of
the Grange and of the Citizens
Hose Company. He is a member
of the Blue Lodge of the Masonic
Order, being a 32nd degree Mason,
and is a former chaplain of the
Grand Lodge of Delaware having

Hynson when the latter was Grand
Master.
His church organizations include
being secretary of the Conference
Board of Evangelism, member of
the Conference Boards of Educa-
tion, Claimants, and Ministerial
Training.
Among the many accomplish
ments and improvements that
have taken place at Asbury during
his pastorate include the organiza-
7tion of a Community Vacation

the church and parsonage, the in
