Pastor Justin and his wife, Emily, are excited to serve the Hamilton Wesleyan Church family and are passionate about helping people find and follow Jesus. Married for more than 23 years, they have spent their lives serving together in student ministry, family ministry, pastoral leadership, discipleship, marriage ministry, and community outreach.
Justin's faith journey began in a small Wesleyan church in southern Indiana, where, as a sixth grader, he encountered the life-changing love of Jesus Christ. One year later, while attending a Wesleyan camp meeting in Orleans, Indiana, he sensed God's call into ministry. Since then, he has faithfully served churches in a variety of ministry roles, always seeking to help people grow in their relationship with Christ.
Emily grew up in northern Indiana and attended Trine University. She has faithfully served alongside Justin throughout their marriage and is passionate about hospitality, encouraging others, and creating meaningful relationships. While she prefers serving behind the scenes, Justin often describes her as his greatest ministry partner, a prayer warrior, and someone who faithfully points others toward Christ through her servant's heart.
Justin and Emily are the proud parents of three children—Kaliah, Kaidn, and Kryslenn. Their family has been blessed through foster care and adoption, and they are grateful for the opportunity to raise their children in a Christ-centered home.
Returning to Indiana to serve at Hamilton Wesleyan Church has been especially meaningful for the Green family. They were drawn to the church's strong Wesleyan heritage, welcoming church family, and commitment to reaching the community with the love of Christ.
Together, Justin and Emily believe the Church is called to be more than a place people attend on Sundays. They are passionate about building authentic relationships, strengthening marriages and families, investing in the next generation, serving the community, and helping people take their next step in following Jesus.
Their prayer is simple: to be where God has called them and to faithfully join Him in the work He is already doing. They look forward to walking alongside the Hamilton Wesleyan Church family as, together, we continue Helping People Find and Follow Jesus.
