Description

William Booth began The Salvation Army in July 1865. Preaching to a small congregation in the slums of London, his spirit was as militant as that of a professional soldier while battling an almost overwhelming army. Thieves, prostitutes, gamblers, and drunkards were among Booth's first converts to Christianity. His congregation were desperately poor. He preached hope and salvation. His aim was to lead them to Christ and link them to a church for continued spiritual guidance.

The Salvation Army today provides numerous programs to low-income individuals in the community of all backgrounds. From our food pantry to Financial literacy and life skills workshops, or our Kids friday fun night and womens groups. The Salvation Army is here to do the most good.
