In 2008 the Lord founded the ministry now called “Sanctuary For Children” through Lee Greer. “Sanctuary For Children” started with a partnership with Healing Harmonics Inc. also located in Chattanooga. Healing Harmonics has a reputation for excellence for over 20 years and assists many other ministries in different parts of the world. The ministry now resides in Saint Elmo Avenue Baptist Church. Lee nor any single person, church or organization supports this ministry from an abundance of personal wealth or free time, but through resources the Lord has provided solely because of prayer. There will never be requests for donations.
Since 2001, Lee and his wife Alice have been successfully active in an international evangelistic ministry called “Salt Shaker”, meaning out of the salt shaker and into the world. The Lord used Lee to bring men to Christ and he now teaches others to do the same. Alice did the same with women and for a while their oldest son, only 10 years old at the time, led a children’s Bible study.
In previous churches, Lee served as an elder, he and his wife as the church youth leaders, Lee started a church youth band, taught the young men’s Sunday school class and held numerous other church leadership positions. Lee led his two boys to Christ and had the special honor as an elder of participating in the baptism of his own 5 year old son. They are currently active members of Signal Mountain Presbyterian Church.
Lee has two college degrees, an Associate of Art, majoring in Art, and a Bachelors of Business Administration, graduating from Georgia State University in 1976 with honors in accounting and in the top four percent of his class. Lee was a successful self-employed general contractor from 1978 to 2000, receiving national awards and recognition. In 1991, Lee personally designed and physically built their family home on the side of Signal Mountain with a view of Lookout Mountain and the Tennessee River. He currently works on houses and gives his time and money to the support of his family and this ministry.
