Each week through 2026, Salvationists around the world are uniting in prayer for the same territory or region of The Salvation Army. Prayer requests are shared by the territory/region to help us pray with precision and power for one another.
This week (8-14 June) we pray for The Salvation Army in the India Eastern Territory.
The India Eastern Territory has 405 officers (304 active, 101 retired); 24 cadets; 13 Aux-Capts; 252 corps; 168 outposts and societies; 40,818 senior soldiers; 183 adherents;10,510 junior soldiers; 170 employees
Commissioners Colonels Lalbulliana Tlau and Lalnunhlui Khawlhring lead the territory.
The work of the territory includes:
· Education
· Support for elderly people
· Rehabilitation centres
· Modern slavery and human trafficking response
