Rev. Claudia Greene

Rev. Greene is a native of Chatham County and is married to Elbert. They have three adult children and four grandchildren. Rev. Greene was educated in the Chatham County School System, where she earned her diploma upon graduation in 1966. She attended Cosmetology school and received her Cosmetologist license in 1975. She accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior in May 1980 and went on to further her education, by attending Elon College (now Elon University) in Elon, North Carolina where she earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Religious Studies in 2001. She attended Shaw University Divinity in Raleigh, North Carolina where she earned a Master of Divinity in 2006. Rev. Greene was called to the office of Pastor by the Eastern North Carolina Association of the Southern Conference in 2007, and where she is still Pastoring today. It has not been an easy journey, but God has always shown Himself strong on my behalf. I am reminded of the song " who's side are you leaning on, leaning on the Lord's side". If it had not been for the Lord on my side, I can truly say I don't know how I could make it. Glory. God has been amazing in the life of the church. We continue to pray and look to God as God move us forward in all things. Rev Greene loves exotic flowers and creating new things. Rev Greene loves to pray on behalf of others and preaching God's Word.

God

There are times

When we don’t understand

About the mysteries of life

And the concern of man

Thank God for Jesus

God sees and God knows

What’s in a man?

What he do and where he goes

Whatever is going on

I have no doubt

My God, your God

Will surly work it out

God sits high and look low

Over the heaven and the earth

God wants us all

To put Him first

What ever we do

We do unto God

It’s right for us

For some it seems odd

God is our Savior

God loves us all

Thank God for Jesus

He want let us fall

Cleanse Me

Holy Spirit, have your way?

Wash me clean

From day to day

Whatever ability

I cannot see

Cleanse me thoroughly

So I can be

The best individual

To answer the call

To do God’s work

That I may not fall

Jesus paved the way

Many centuries ago

With out stretched arms

And a head bowed low

Thank you Lord

For your love so sweet

In your Word of Life

My soul will keep

We Celebrate

There is a world

That we don’t understand

Affecting humankind

All over the land

It affects the young

And the young at heart

Even though at times

We have to part

So what makes us special?

And unique indeed

Some say our forefathers

From Abraham’s seed

We are here and we celebrate

Our time on this land

Giving praise and glory to God

Singing and lifting of hands

Love covers a multitude of sin

No matter what the sin may be

Our help comes from the Lord

He knows and He sees

Live Life To The Fullest

Live life to the fullest

Let God be your guide

While you walk in expectation

In God you will survive

Live life to the fullest

With God you can’t go wrong

In every anticipation

To the one that’s on the throne

Live life to the fullest

Absolutely to God be true

All authority was given to Jesus

The one who rescued you

Live life to the fullest

Your blessings are in your hand

Speak life and receive it

From the authority of God’s command

Live life to the fullest

Be the best that you can be

You once was lost, but now you are found

And everyone can see

Live life to the fullest

By the anointing that is within

Be pleasing to the one who made you

Until the very end

Wondering

The circle of life

Goes around and around

Sometimes you are up

Sometimes you are
