Broken Songs We all have broken songs -- places in our life,
and in our hearts, that are in need of healing.
Sometimes we feel that people -- and even life -- have
failed us. Thankfully, Jesus' blood never fails.

on Dec. 3, 2008, at Green Meadow, the community of
faith was in one accord to formalize our cooperative
mission with Family
Promise of Blount County. That includes
renovations for the purpose of housing the Family Day
Center under a lease agreement to be negotiated by the
trustees of Green Meadow and Family
Promise of Blount County.
