========================
Dr Samuel Gosnell Green, came to Upper Meeting from Walworth where his father was pastor and both a teacher and printer, and he was prepared for ministerial training by Rev Josiah Wilkinson.. SGG preached his first sermon at Upper Meeting. He went on to become an author and educationalist.

In 1858 the Psalms and Hymns Trust formed, an influential committee chaired by SGG which produced a hymnal collection of 1000 Hymns entitled “Psalms and Hymns” which remained popular well into the 20th century and in it’s first 21 years 900,000 copies were sold and from the profits £10,000 was distributed to widows and orphans.

He also chaired the committee that produced the Baptist Church Hymnal published in 1900 and he by then had been first tutor and then Principal from 1863 - 1876 and finally President of Rawdon College in total serving them for 24 years. He was also advisor to Mrs John Rylands in the establishment of the Rylands Library at Manchester. The new hymnal was widely embraced in the UK, the Dominions and where ever the BMS held services in English.

SGG was a man of broad interests in the field of Biblical studies the men trained at Rawdon college, “ sought to unite the pair so long despised knowledge and vital piety “
In the Downgrade Controversy he was critical of the Angus Declaration in 1888 which was a kind of creed of Baptist belief.

In 1871 he raised in the BU Council the idea of a uniformed scheme for ministerial training but it was anther 14 years before they agreed. He commended to us our new pastor in 1874 returned and preached in 1879 for the opening of the new Chapel

SGG was General Secretary of the Religious Tract Society which produced Christian books, Biblical commentaries, and school text books and he wrote several such.

It later became the United Society for Christian Literature and later organised the Feed the Minds Campaign and Eurolit to provide Mini-libraries to persecuted and imprisoned pastors in Eastern Europe. He Died 15 Sept 1905

After a few years he disagreed with the other people there and left and began anothert Baptist Church known locally as Tebbutt's Baptist Church.
