The Jane E. Green Scholarship was established to honor the life and legacy of a woman of God, wife, mother, and grandmother who was an undercover special force agent and soldier who impacted thousands throughout her life as a Bible teacher, and through her home-and-prayer-focused ministry.

​

She was one who never sought after or even needed the spotlight in order to run her race and complete her course in teaching the word of God and imparting wisdom for marriage and family relationships (married 70 years).

Together, she and her husband (James) served for decades in several ministry of helps roles in their various homes, neighborhoods, and local churches where they were members. Most notably, she made a profound impact on countless hundreds of children in the urban community through Child Evangelism Fellowship's Good News Clubs and Discipleship Programs; and they hosted a weekly prayer gathering for teenagers and young adults in their home.

​

In 1987, she helped pioneer the Metropolitan Christian Worship Center with her eldest son and daughter-in-love (Raphael and Brenda Green) where she served in various ministerial roles: Director of Altar Workers and Follow-up Ministries; Director of a ministry to senior women in the church; led the Christian Education Department; and completed her tenure as a staff pastoral advisor minister and staff teaching minister.

​

She earned associate degrees in Biblical Studies, Christian Education, and Christian Counseling at the Brooke's Bible Institute. Additionally she earned a degree as a licensed practical nurse - a field she loved and served in for more than a decade.

Her legacy is so profoundly simple. Trust and obey, for there’s no other way…

She knew that people were trying to do the best they could with what they had; but her philosophy was,

“Let God give you the best that He has for you.”

She often said, “My only desire was for my children to know and love Jesus; and live their lives for Him.

I didn’t ask God to make them famous; my only prayer was that they would be faithful.” 

She had 7 children, 13 grand children, and 22 great-grandchildren.​

All of her children committed their lives to Christ at an early age, and as young adults, each of them entered the ministry or the marketplace with the same passion and focus as their mother.

Tributes from her Family

She passed away in September of 2024, but we will continue to carry her name, cause and contributions through scholarships that will enable Believers to have access to solid and sound Biblical teaching, wisdom and instruction.
