EUGENE W. LOY became the Forty-First Pastor to serve the Green River
Congregation.  He was elected by the Church on July 10, 1974, upon
recommendation by the Pulpit Committee.  Under his leadership and ministry
the Church put in a new Baptistry (1975); laid new carpet and installed new
pews (1975-1976); bought eight additional acres for cemetery use (1976);
and erected an "Outdoor Building", which increased the Property Value from
$86,000.00 in 1978 to $158,000.00 in 1979.  Church growth, both
statistically and finacially, was evident during his pastorate of four
years and nine months, the longest since that of L. V. Meador in 1939-1944.
 He resigned on March 14, 1979.
	Eugene Wayne Loy attended Ohio University, Athens, Ohio; Kentucky Wesleyan
