* Smoky Mountain Area Rescue Ministries *
From their official website:
Smoky Mountain Area Rescue Ministries was founded to demonstrate the love of Christ by serving individuals and families in their moment of need. SMARM provides one-on-one assessments and point-of-need services such as short-term housing, utility assistance, transportation, food, and clothing. SMARM provides organized mentoring and permanent housing resources to help families move from crisis to stability.
Smoky Mountain Area Rescue Ministries was established in 2001 through the efforts of a group of concerned citizens who came together to address the problem of homelessness and poverty in Sevier County. After prayerful consideration, they invited Knox Area Rescue Ministries to partner with them in seeking to provide emergency relief and other basic services for homeless and near homeless men, women, and families in the Sevier County area. Smoky Mountain Area Rescue Ministries is a Christ-centered, interdenominational ministry with a goal of reaching out to the hopeless and hurting in our community and providing them with renewed hope and an opportunity to come to faith in Christ or strengthening their faith in Christ through our meeting of their most basic needs for food, shelter, clothing, and other services.
While seeking to provide these most basic necessities, the ministry committed itself to sharing the love and compassion of Christ through its work. This cornerstone, the heart of Smoky Mountain Area Rescue Ministries, is summarized in our organization’s mission statement: SMARM was founded to demonstrate the love of Christ by serving individuals and families in their moment of need. SMARM provides one-on-one assessments and point-of-need services such as short-term housing, utility assistance, transportation, food and clothing. SMARM provides organized mentoring and permanent housing resources to help families move from crisis to stability.
