He was preoccupied with disbelief; how could he have never known the true legacy of his tiny community? How could a whole towns existence be erased but for the memory of a few surviving elders? Greens historical research uncovered a surprising trove of tales about the self-determined mission of his newly freed ancestors to build an African American house of worship; and how generations later, on the eve of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.s assasination, that churchs progeny would be at the center of a brave and fortelling decision to create an integrated church.

Fueled by a new understanding of where he comes from, Green takes readers on a deeply personal journey asking his own questions about belonging all the while finding answers from the compassionate, communal-led lives of his forbearers. Too Precious to Lose is a modern return to a small-towns past; a reclamation of a collective sense of hope and humanity in a much divided world.</p>...(*_*)9798217073511_<p><strong>A moving and inspiring memoir from a former Obama White House staffer, about his rural Maryland familys untold history, the merger of three churchesone Black, two whiteand how a radical embrace of community became their salvation, and his.</strong></p><p>Jason Green was raised on fellowshipliterally.
