Born out of forty years of foundational training and teaching in the Church of God in Christ International, emerged a dynamic vessel “anointed to lead”. Through this e
mbodiment of multifaceted gifting of shepherd-evangelist-compassion, God birthed forth an expression of divine nurturance fashioned after His Own heart. Maurice Green, Jr., a voice crying in the wilderness, “prepare ye the way of the Lord,” is armed with a clear directive of the Great Commission, and ministers through a strong intercessory tenor that stirs the hearing ear and moves the contrite heart to salvation. Elected visionary of the LILY OF THE VALLEY Church of God in Christ in Bryan,
Texas, Supt. Green ministers as an endowing charismatic pastor who has genuinely, sensitively and sacrificially led, guided, and nurtured the flock of God for the past thirty-three (37) years. Under the pedagogy of some of COGIC’s finest leaders as the late Bishop Samuel Crouch, the late Bishop J. Blake, Bishop Charles Blake, the late Bishop T. Iglehart, and Bishop Samuel E. Green has served veraciously as an Evangelist, District Y.P.W.W. President, State Music Department President, Chairman of the Elders’ Council, Jurisdictional Adjutant to the Bishop, National Adjutant, National Sergeant at Arms, National Marshall, International Women’s Department Prayer Team, Pastor, District Superintendent, and Administrative Assistant. His pastoral reach extends beyond the walls of the organized church and is epitomized through his collaboration of various civic duties such as Bryan Independent School District Alternative Learning Advisory Board member, Save our Street Ministries, weekly ministry at the Federal Women’s Prison (Bryan), Campus pastor for Life Saver’s Bible Study (Texas A&M University) and weekly radio ministry. Bishop Green, recognized as an influential and resourceful minister of the Gospel, is
greatly respected for his faithfulness to God and to the Church. The acme of his most endearing service is chronicled in his life as loving husband to Missionary Barbara A. Hall Green, caring father to his children and an adoring grandfather to his precious grandchildren.
