160 Years: Church and Charity

For 160 years, The Salvation Army has embraced the world with the love of Jesus, sharing the life-giving Spirit of God in communities around the world.

We have more than 14,000 churches and worshipping communities, with 1.8 million church members, known as Salvationists, and 100,000 employees. The confidence we have in a loving and caring God finds outward expression in our love for humanity and our practical response to human need.
