William Booth objected to a phrase contained in that year’s annual report: ‘The Christian Mission … is a Volunteer Army.’ By replacing the word ‘volunteer’, The Salvation Army had its new title and with it an inspired metaphor for its role in fighting the injustices of society and in bringing people to understand God. Over time, the organisation gained military-style titles (ministers are ‘officers’, for example) and even uniforms designed to publicly demonstrate a commitment

In 1878 Booth reorganized the mission, becoming its first General and introducing the military structure which has been retained to the present day.

1.9 Repositioning Statement Salvation Army believes in saving souls, especially those who are underprivileged and disadvantaged. We have more to offer than just 2nd hand clothing, but now we are now broadening our mission to empower those in need with compassion. The new Salvation Army will offer educational counselling for all ages, grant and scholarship opportunities, and more holiday soup kitchens where the same kids can help. We will still be there for low income families whether they need 2nd hand clothing or some assistance to a clear path for college.

3.2 Introduction The Salvation Army was founded in 1865 in London by one-time Methodist circuit-preacher William Booth and his wife Catherine as the East London Christian Mission, and can trace its origins to the Blind Beggar tavern. It is a Protestant Christian church and an international charitable organisation structured in a quasi-military fashion. It’s long history of fighting the injustices of society and in bringing people to understand God has evolved to empowering more of those in need with compassion. Saving souls is our calling. The need to branch and help the most people as possible is instilled in us. And in that the possibilities are endless just like the paths we help those lead.
