The honour roll commemorates those connected with the church who served in World War One.

Twenty-six names of Green Park's gallant young men are enshrined for evermore on an honor roll in the small Presbyterian church there. This was unveiled in the presence of a large audience on Saturday night by the Right Rev. J. J. Crookston, M.A., Moderator General of the Presbyterian Church of Australia.

The church was decorated with Australian gum leaves that hung down gracefully. They seemed to say of the golden names on the roll of honor  "All these were honored in their generation, and were the glory of their time. "
