History

 

 

 

In the summer of 1948, Rev. S. L. Hale along with his wife Daisy, and a handful of family & friends, came

together to form the Church of Jesus.

 

The church was located on 8th. Avenue in North Nashville. The fledgling congregation soon began to grow

as a spirit of revival and anointing pervaded in every service. Many souls were born into the family of God,

and gifts of healing were common place throughout those early years. The church relocated to the East Nashville

area during the 1960’s. At one point Pastor Hale bought a house on Hancock St. and the church was renamed

to, The Full Gospel Church of Jesus Christ. An atmosphere of worship and revival always prevailed and many

people were introduced to the Apostolic Message as Pastor Hale preached without compromise the Oneness

of God, and the Acts 2:38 plan of salvation. In 1969 the current property on Meridian St. was purchased with

a house connected to it as the parsonage. Pastor Hale continued to lead the congregation until 1991 when age

and ill health forced him to step down and pass the shepherd’s staff over to another. Rev. Sammy Pruitt along

with his wife Sis. Darlene, and children, took up the shepherd’s staff and continue the work begun some 43yrs. earlier. Through the leadership of Pastor Pruitt

We now are chartered by the state with By-laws in order and fully incorporated.With a fresh vision and mission

to reach out to the hurting and hopeless, we are now known as CHRIST Family Church. And we would love

for you to come be a part of our family!
