Editorial Department

The Editorial Department plays a crucial role in shaping and communicating our organization’s mission, message, and impact through the War Cry (SAUTI YA VITA). Our dedicated team creates, and edits written content that informs, inspires, and engages our internal audience and the wider community. We carefully oversee articles and reports from our War Cry Correspondents to ensure that we effectively convey the mission of The Salvation Army: preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ and meeting human needs in His name without discrimination.

In addition to content creation, we collaborate with various teams to maintain consistent messaging across diverse platforms. Our department curates testimonies, success stories, and updates from ongoing projects, ensuring that our website, social media, and publications remain dynamic and impactful. Our goal is to present an authentic, Christ-centered perspective on the transformative work within the Kenya West Territory.

Highlights of the Year

A significant highlight for our department this year was the coverage of the grand Centenary Celebration of The Salvation Army Kenya West Territory. This landmark event commemorated 100 years of impactful ministry and service in the region, attended by distinguished international guests, including General Lyndon Buckingham and Commissioner Bronwyn Buckingham, alongside local communities and supporters.

Our team played an essential role in preparing and distributing commemorative materials, capturing inspiring stories of faith, transformation, and our enduring commitment to spreading the gospel while meeting the needs of the people.

One of our magazine editions focused on our emergency response to the recent drought crisis, featuring firsthand accounts from individuals and families who benefited from our food distribution programs. By incorporating engaging visuals, personal stories, and impactful updates from the field, our newsletter serves as a vital tool for fostering unity and purpose within our organization.

In fulfilling our duties, we adhere to the principles, standards, and regulations of The Salvation Army. Our commitment and dedication to the holistic mission empower us to serve God more effectively.
