Kelly Brown, Launceston Corps Ministry Assistant, sets up the badge-making activity. By CLIFF WORTHING Launceston Corps participated in the annual Easter Alive Children and Families Festival along with about 30 local churches on 8 April. Corps volunteers served up 250 sausages and 200 nacho bowls free of charge at Riverbend Park. They also provided badge-making and glitter tattoo activities. Nigel Chong, Emergency Services Coordinator, and Anna Strochbetter, mission volunteer, have fun cooking the barbeque. “We got to share the love of Jesus and the hope of Easter to our community,” said Aux-Lieut Roderick Brown, Launceston Corps Officer. “We strive to be present in our community, engage with people and were able to re-establish connections with people we haven’t seen for a while.” Kelly Brown, Corps Ministry Assistant, mentioned she was able to engage with a student from a local school where she is currently completing a chaplaincy placement. “It was good to share Christ’s love seen in the events of Easter in a different setting to where I normally engage with them,” Kelly said.

Salvation Army teams offer emotional and spiritual support, as well as physical and practical, in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. Teams from the Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services USA were prepared and ready to serve and offer physical, emotional and spiritual support as soon as safely possible after Hurricane Helene made landfall in Florida’s Big Bend area on 27 September. For residents there, this was their third hurricane in 13 months.   More than 135 people have lost their lives, and the storm surge, wind damage and inland flooding resulting from the hurricane have been catastrophic – flooding neighbourhoods, stranding residents and destroying homes, infrastructure and farmlands in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee.   Five divisions in the Southern Territory are actively responding in six states throughout the south-east.  To date, teams have served 43,137 hot meals, 11,597 meal kits, 35,555 drinks and 19,579 snacks from 60 active mobile feeding units.   In Florida, Emergency Disaster Services personnel set up bunkhouses, shower trailers, generators, and all the equipment needed for their response, including a meal service. In addition to food, crews were available to listen as resident after resident spoke about the collective trauma the region is reliving.   Jennifer, who is still living in a Federal Emergency Management Agency trailer (caravan) after Hurricane Idalia destroyed her home in August 2023. She broke down in tears as she walked up to The Salvation Army team. She spoke of how she had once again found herself in the dark, searching for phone service, desperate to figure out where and if help was available.   “I can’t believe we are going through this again,” she whispered. “How is this even real?” After receiving a hug and meal kits and the comfort of knowing she was safe, Jennifer continued. “The Salvation Army is what pulled me through Hurricane Idalia. I knew I could find you again, and I would be okay.”   Jennifer spoke of her favourite place to take her children for a special treat, now only cinder blocks. Other residents described entire neighbourhoods levelled, empty beaches with posts that used to hold houses, and the repeated refrain: “How did it happen again?”   The Salvation Army remains committed to providing not only meals and water to the residents of the Big Bend communities, but also emotional and spiritual care as they process this collective hardship. “Thank you for showing up,” Jennifer said, smiling as she walked away. “You made us feel like we’re not alone.”   Some information is this article is courtesy Michelle Hartfield, Salvation Army Emergency Disaster Services USA.

Executive Officer and Director of Nursing, Andrew Bailey (left), gratefully accepts care packs on behalf of Macksville Hospital from Rosemary Porter, Salvation Army soldier Joan De Jong and Boomerang Bag member Bev Atkinson. An initiative by Nambucca River Salvo Rosemary Porter, with support from her corps on the NSW Mid-North Coast, is helping people admitted to the Macksville Hospital and bringing smiles to the faces of patients and staff alike. When her father was in hospital, Rosemary noticed that some patients, particularly those who did not have family nearby, were not always able to readily access basic toiletry supplies. “I thought it would be a great idea if people could receive a pack of toiletries when they were admitted to hospital at short notice as it would be one less thing to worry about,” Rosemary said. “I attend church at the Salvos and thought I would ask if they would help me get this going, and they got right on board.” Any patient that comes to the hospital with little notice, such as an emergency patient or someone transferred to Macksville Hospital, is now able to receive a pack of basic toiletries thanks to Rosemary and the Salvos. So far, the toiletries are coming from donations by those who attend the Nambucca River Corps. However, support for this wonderful concept is growing. Boomerang Bags have joined forces with Rosemary and the Salvos to produce the bags the toiletries are placed in. Bev Atkinson, one of the Boomerang Bag team, said, “We have a group that works out of Riverside Gardens (aged care centre) that began making bags to replace plastic bags, and we use fabric that would otherwise go to landfill. “When Rosemary found out about us, she asked if we could make Boomerang Bags for these care packs, and we thought that would be a great idea.” Macksville Hospital’s Executive Officer and Director of Nursing, Andrew Bailey, added, “Whenever someone comes through an emergency it is not a planned approach, and they arrive generally unable to get toiletries until the next day or longer if they have no family. “Our nursing staff are supportive of the initiative. It is special and not something that every hospital can provide.” Rosemary started this initiative midway through last year and although attendees from Nambucca River Corps have been keeping the toiletries coming in up to this point, some items are in short supply, and it is now hoped that members of the public will get behind this wonderful idea and donate toiletries to keep the concept alive. People who would like to donate items such as small versions of toothpaste, toothbrushes, soap, shampoo and other toiletries are able to take them to the Nambucca River Family Store in Macksville or Adara Nails, Body and Soul at Shop 3/37 Cooper Street, Macksville.

Owen Davis continues to volunteer for The Salvation Army, decades after his life was changed through his experiences at the Army’s Oasis Youth Support Network. By LAUREN MARTIN Owen Davis credits music – and Jesus through The Salvation Army – with saving his life. Twenty years ago, his life on the streets of inner Sydney was chaotic and dangerous, with The Salvation Army’s Oasis Youth Support Network and its then manager, Major Paul Moulds, his only anchor. Decades later, the musician and videographer has moved on from his life on the streets, but he’s never lost his passion for assisting others in the same position he found himself in as a teen, without a place to call home. Owen and the former manager of Oasis Youth Support Network, Major Paul Moulds. In 2016, he was part of The Salvation Army’s Couch Project ‘Street to Stage’ tour of 12 high schools, raising money and creating awareness around youth homelessness. From that, Owen birthed a ‘Street 2 Stage’ (S2S) initiative that gained funding to work with young people experiencing homelessness, training them in music production and videography. It was full circle for the young man, who took part in a similar initiative through The Salvation Army’s Oasis more than a decade earlier. “I don’t forget that,” he says, his passion and faith running so deep that he continued anyway when funding ran out for the project. “This work is really important to me. Everyone was saying to me, ‘Just wait for the funding, don’t waste your time’, but I thought, ‘I’m not going to let these young guys miss out due to lack of funding.” Street 2 Stage initiative The projects Owen developed, and runs, are the Street 2 Stage ‘One Shot’ and ‘One Take’ initiatives. One Shot focuses on music production, and One Take focuses on film production. Owen connects with young people experiencing homelessness through word-of-mouth referrals or social media and invites them to be part of the eight-week program. They learn production, writing, recording, mixing/editing and mastering, and marketing/PR skills from Owen, who has qualifications in screen media. “They are then able to use their skills in their life,” says Owen. “They are able to go out and take steps forward like finding accommodation, finding a job and holding that job and doing some good stuff with their life. It 100 per cent improves their self-esteem and gives them concrete skills that transfer to many different job opportunities – not just in the music or film industry.” Life-changing experience One participant, Frank, says Street 2 Stage and his connection with Owen changed his life. “Before it, I had no direction. My life [was] a mess, but through music and film, I feel like now my life is just awesome,” he shares. “I can’t explain it, but I have something to live for.” Frank has gone from experiencing homelessness, being in and out of jail, to now “happily living with my partner and my child ... and so lucky to be able to share my story on a stage. I truly went from the streets to the stage,” he says. Stories like Frank’s are never instant, and Owen personally knows the value of long-term journeying with people, having experienced it himself with his mentor, Major Paul Moulds. Despite appointment changes taking Paul away from Oasis and even interstate, he never lost touch with Owen and has been there through many ups and downs. Salvation Army partnership Paul remembers meeting Owen as a teenager, saying, “He was very angry, but he always had a dream – even back then, you could sense it. Over the years, we have been able to help him. He has done all the work himself, but we have been able to help him find pathways to do that.” Paul says he’s thrilled to work alongside Owen again in his new role as Team Leader of Greater West Salvos. Earlier this year, the team was granted government funding to develop ‘Western Sydney Oasis’ – a multi-million-dollar transformation centre at St Marys. “We have plans in western Sydney to develop a whole lot of positive and creative youth projects to help young people to express themselves and give them skills and training. Owen is part of that team that is helping us plan it.” The Western Sydney Oasis development is many years off completion; however, Owen continues to offer Street 2 Stage as a volunteer and is working with the team on gaining funding for other youth-based initiatives. Music funding the mission Owen unleashes his creativity in his spare time through his rap characters – ‘Fiction’ and ‘OE’ – who both release music. Fiction is an anti-hero character, who Owen describes as portraying “the worst of everyone, the dark side of everyone”. The cover of Owen’s Street Life Stories album. “OE, he is like different, he’s like above everything else, he wants to change the world. His inspiration is Jesus. OE started a new genre called homeless rap, which only talks about the struggle and the pain instead of like the glory [of the drug lifestyle]. Homeless rap is going to tell you that drugs will ruin your life, will kill you, will make you homeless, not glorify it.” Owen releases a music single every month, with 20 per cent of all proceeds from OE’s releases donated to The Salvation Army. The music is released through all major streaming services such as Spotify, iTunes and Amazon and also as an NFT. He’s also started a new initiative – Justice News – working with others who have had experience with homelessness to interview real people about social justice issues. “Jesus is the inspiration for what I do – not for fame or for money but to see a better world, that’s my dream.”

On a downward spiral with addiction, Taylor thought he could pull himself out on his own, but as he says, “Sometimes you need to be plucked from the environment you’re in and put in a scenario where you’re just forced to look at yourself in a certain way.” Taylor found help at The Salvation Army Sunrise Centre and says, “They really can help, and they can help you help yourself,” especially if you think it can’t be done. Taylor now uses art to express himself and to help others in their recovery.

BY SIMONE WORTHING General Lyndon Buckingham has launched a new international framework that will guide The Salvation Army’s mission and ministry into the future. The new Global Strategic Framework is called Compass, which is captured in three words the General has coined: ‘ People, Mission, Legacy ’. Compass was launched at Sunbury Court in London during the General’s Consultative Council, with many Army leaders around the world in attendance, including Australia’s Territorial Commander, Commissioner Miriam Gluyas. “It [Compass] sets our direction, and we want everybody to be involved,” the General said. “We all want to be a part of a growing Army. We all want to be a part of an enduring Army. And we’ve concentrated our efforts to try and find a strategy that will enable us at every level of the movement to advance the cause of our mission.   “We are determined to empower people, enhance mission impact and establish an enduring legacy,” he continued. “We need your help, we need your prayers, and we need your engagement. I pray that this framework will strengthen your ministry as we seek to love God and love others in Jesus’ name.” Australian response Commissioner Miriam Gluyas said she was excited to attend the launch and said the Compass framework aligned “beautifully” with the Australia Territory rallying cry of ‘Jesus-centred, Spirit-led, hope revealed’. “As a global Salvation Army, we are determined to empower people, enhance mission impact and establish an enduring legacy,” she said.   “Compass, with the focus on people, mission and legacy, encapsulates many of the issues that we are currently working on in the Australia Territory.   “It’s a framework, not a strategy, and as we do further work, we will use parts of this on our spiritual strategy. Commissioner Miriam Gluyas attended the launch of Compass at Sunbury Court and, with her teams, will play an integral role in developing the framework. Photos supplied by Miriam Gluyas “For example, I have been asked to head up the Mission Integration component, with a great team. We will look at issues of belonging, membership, covenant, collaborative missional and spiritual spaces, growing healthy faith expressions and developing new ones. This includes the relationship between IHQ and THQ. We are already working intentionally on these issues and in our work groups.   “And, then, people and legacy!   “Our rallying cry stays ­– and fits beautifully. None of this will happen if we are not Jesus-centred and Spirit-led. There is do much hope to be revealed!”   The Global Strategic Framework The document outlines The Salvation Army’s Global Strategic Framework, focusing on three main areas: Empowering People , Enhancing Mission Impact , and Establishing an Enduring Legacy .   ​It includes 12 priorities under these areas, such as spiritual life, leadership development, officer wellness, membership, covenant, resource allocation and global partnerships.   “Key to the framework is that, across the world, we focus on a growing Army and an enduring Army. These are key as we move into the future,” Miriam said. To download the Global Strategic Framework PDF, click here .    For more information on Compass click here . Join us on this journey! #CountMeIn General’s presentation The General began his Compass launch presentation by thanking everyone for the contribution that they’re making to the life and the ministry of The Salvation Army “Just where you are. We don’t take it for granted, and we’re very grateful for your contribution,” he said. To view the short launch speech, click here or on the arrow below.

The Australia Territory has 31 Aussie officers serving overseas, one at International Headquarters in London (but based in Australia) and eight serving in different appointments here. Global Focus is featuring many of these officers – who they are, where they’re serving, the joys and challenges they face and what life looks like for them in their unique corners of The Salvation Army world.  Commissioners Julie and Mark Campbell are well-known throughout the Australia Territory. Mark served as the first Chief Secretary of the newly formed Australia Territory, while Julie held dual roles of Territorial Secretary for Women’s Ministries and Gender Equity Advocate – from January 2017 to December 2019. They have been serving ‘across the ditch’ as Territorial Leaders of the New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa Territory since January 2020 although, due to COVID-19 restrictions, they initially led the territory online from Australia. The Campbells recently shared some of their journey over the past five years with Salvos Online journalist SIMONE WORTHING. Commissioners Julie and Mark Campbell have been leading the territory since 2020. As an overview, what do your roles as territorial leaders entail? We are the spiritual leaders responsible for the mission, oversight and direction of the territory, so we are involved in many meetings and boards at THQ and online. The part that brings us most joy is visiting corps and centres in New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa, to meet our incredible officers, soldiers, adherents, staff and volunteers, and to see firsthand the joys and challenges of mission and ministry. Mark is the Territorial Commander and Chair of the Governance Board, and Julie is the Territorial President of Women’s Ministries with a vibrant ministry to women led by women throughout the territory. What were some of your first impressions of the country/countries in which you live and serve? Aotearoa, New Zealand, is a beautiful country – rugged coastland, snow-capped mountains and heaps of sheep. New Zealand is also a bi-cultural nation, so the Māori culture and language is an important part of the nation. We also have a large percentage of Pacific Islanders living in New Zealand who add to the diversity and richness of the country. Fiji, Tonga and Samoa are also stunning countries. We love the tropical weather and the people who are so joyful, despite the many challenges they face. We often think of New Zealand and Australia as being similar culturally and possibly even spiritually. Has this been your experience? What are the main similarities and differences you find living in New Zealand? Has there been anything that has particularly surprised you? The Campbells spend time with cadets in the Champions of the Mission session. The two countries are very similar and have a healthy rivalry. Our accents are very different, and we are often surprised by some of the words and phrases. The size and population of New Zealand is so much smaller than Australia, which has taken some time to adjust to. Culturally, New Zealand is very different with an acceptance of Te Reo Māori customs, culture and a commitment to partnership through a Treaty signed in 1840 by the King of England and the Māori Chiefs. Te Reo Māori is an official language and spoken to commence and welcome all who attend meetings. The Māori culture is a very significant part of this nation.  What is something special that God has done this year in your ministry? Julie: The opportunities to visit Tonga, Fiji and Samoa, to meet with our officers, soldiers and staff and both see and hear the great work that God is doing. Through these passionate and committed people, God is teaching me to be humble, courageous and trust him wholeheartedly. They have very little, but everything in Christ. Mark: Seeing the amazing things God is doing in the islands of Fiji, Tonga and Samoa with great leadership.   What joys and challenges do you experience working and serving in different countries and cultures? The challenges: We miss our family and friends. We are a territory of four nations, so we work hard to ensure the voices, opportunities, and mission are well represented when THQ is in New Zealand. We also work hard to understand the history and culture of the four nations. This is vital. Changes have been implemented to the structure of the divisions and THQ support teams in New Zealand, so we are praying and working towards unity and a greater mission impact. The increased impact of drugs in Fiji, Tonga and Samoa is concerning, and our officers and staff are working with governments and other organisations to be part of the solution.  Experiencing cultural diversity is a special joy for the Campbells. The joys: The people are friendly, innovative and passionate about sharing the love of Jesus. We love hearing the stories of how God is transforming the lives of people through our various corps and mission expressions. It’s exciting to see the ministry opportunities in Fiji, Tonga and Samoa continually growing – we have congregations starting up in many different places. Recovery corps/churches are some of our fastest growing congregations in New Zealand. We are also focused on community work in New Zealand and our mission expressions that include corps, social and emergency housing, addiction services, Community Ministries (practical assistance) and Family Stores. We enjoy travelling and seeing the stunning scenery of the four nations. And of course, the sporting rivalry is fun!   What does a typical day look like for you – or is there such a thing as a typical day? A typical day involves preparing and attending various boards and meetings to stay informed of the joys and challenges in the territory. And we travel regularly to connect and encourage our people and monitor the progress of our mission.    Has overseas service changed your outlook on life, God, the Army – or other ways? Definitely! We have a greater understanding, awareness and appreciation of the importance of working together in unity and diversity of culture. Our faith, love and trust in the Lord has been strengthened through prayer and the promises of his Word. We are even more committed to proclaiming the love and good news of Jesus through our mission in The Salvation Army.  How can we pray for you? We would be grateful for your prayers for wisdom and vision for us as the leaders, to encourage our people to keep focused on our relationship with God, our mission and message. As we embrace the structual changes that have taken place, in the power of the Spirit, we want to be a stronger Army living out the good news of Jesus to see more lives saved and transformed.   Mā te Atua koe e manaaki May God bless you

Commissioners Wayne and Robyn Maxwell, leaders of the South Pacific and East Asia Zone of The Salvation Army. By COMMISSIONER ROBYN MAXWELL At a recent exhibition at International Headquarters, several women from around the world shared something of their greater story of womanhood, resilience and overcoming difficulty with faith and determination. Australian officer, Commissioner Robyn Maxwell, who currently serves as the Zonal Secretary for Women’s Ministries in the South Pacific and East Asia Zone, shares part of her journey. It was just a day like any other – until we arrived at International Headquarters and our world was turned upside down! Early in the morning, just as we arrived at the office, my husband Wayne went into cardiac arrest. The paramedics arrived just as he lost consciousness, performing 45 minutes of CPR and 16 shock treatments before transporting him to the hospital. For me, it was very confronting. It was in this moment that I realised I needed the Lord in a way I never had before. After 30 minutes with no response, I said to the Lord, “If this is your chosen time for Wayne, I will accept it, but if it’s not we need a miracle right now.” Five hours of waiting went, and I was still unable to see him in intensive care. I will never forget the words of the head cardiac doctor, “I cannot give you any hope of recovery.” Throughout all my officership, I have preached about our miracle-working God and, in this moment, I was pressing in more than ever to this truth! Before leaving Wayne’s bedside that day, I laid my hands on him in front of the medical team and asked the Lord for a miracle. The news spread across the world, and people joined me in interceding for Wayne’s healing. God heard and answered our prayers and one week after Wayne’s heart attack we walked out of the hospital together. The astounded medical team also called his recovery a miracle! It has been a beautiful reminder in our lives that we serve a miracle-working God who has much more for us to do in his name!

Project 614’s newest senior soldiers holding their certificates (from left): Dianne, KJ, Robert, Greg, Scott and Jianfen. (Middle row): Lieut-Colonel Yvonne Daniels, Majors Brendan and Sandra Nottle, Major Pearson Chuang. Matthew Daniels (614 café manager) is holding the flag. By CLIFF WORTHING Senior soldiership becomes highly relevant today when a corps delivers on mission, according to Major Brendan Nottle, Project 614 Corps Officer in Melbourne. Amongst all the celebrations on Easter Sunday at the inner-city corps, six senior soldiers were enrolled. “During tough times, having a place to belong, being in a tribe of significance that is meaningful is something people search for,” Brendan said. Retired officers Lieutenant-Colonel Frank and Yvonne Daniels led the soldiership classes. One of the soldiers, Jianfen, preferred spiritual conversations in her native language, so she worked individually with Chinese-speaking Major Pearson Chuang (Melbourne Project 614 Corps Officer, team member). “It was great working with them because they were keen and wanted to put their faith in action through 614’s mission,” Frank said. “They came from such diverse backgrounds but became a tight little group through the soldiership process.” Individual journeys Dianne came to Project 614 after Salvos Funerals conducted her daughter’s funeral. She was so impressed with the officer who conducted the funeral and the funeral director that she asked for the nearest Salvation Army corps to attend. Frank and Yvonne met her at the front door and listened to her story. She now volunteers at the corps café. “Dianne embraced the congregation in an amazing way and before long said to me, ‘I’d like some of those epaulettes’, so we started recruiting a group to join her,” Frank said. The new senior soldiers sign their certificates at the holiness table. KJ had spent time in a Salvation Army children’s home, served in the military, and lived roughly before coming to 614. Two other soldiers had previous Salvo connections but have since found a home at Melbourne Project 614. “Everyone was involved in the corps some way but just wanted to make that extra commitment,” Frank said. While the Daniels were leading the group through the soldiership process, Pearson was working with Jianfen. Jianfen had been a part of the Richmond congregation for about 20 years but started attending 614 about a year ago. She regularly attends the weekly Chinese language Bible study, and serves as a volunteer at the corps during Red Shield Appeal and collecting donations. “She showed she had a love of the people and wanted to put her Christianity into action,” Pearson said. “So, when we discussed becoming a soldier, she jumped at the chance.”

Rowena Smith with the children and their money boxes. Image: Supplied BY KIRRALEE NICOLLE Children attending a recent Salvation Army camp in Queensland have been encouraged to think beyond Australia’s needs, with each child being given a Lego money box to collect coins for an overseas cause. The ‘Making it Happen’ project for 2023-24 aimed to raise $120,000 for a home and missional hub for corps officers in the Solomon Islands. Commissioner Miriam Gluyas launched the project in July last year, and it will conclude in November. Majors Robert and Vanessa Evans, an Australian couple serving as District Officers in the Solomon Islands, identified this project as a significant goal for The Salvation Army’s mission. Queensland Children’s Secretary Maree Southall came up with the idea for the Lego money boxes as a way to remind the children that they were part of building something. They were given to children at the South Queensland Kids Camp last week, who were then encouraged to fill them with coins throughout the month of October. Following the South Queensland Kids Camp, the South Burnett Region Corps supported the drive through a coin collection during the Sunday service. Making it Happen Project Coordinator Rowena Smith said the Lego money box drive was one of her highlights of the project. “It doesn't really matter how much financial gain comes from the children’s participation,” Rowena said. “What matters is that they’ve had the opportunity to participate and feel that they’ve made a contribution and that, in turn, their congregation can encourage them and can validate what they’ve done.” Rowena said getting involved in Making it Happen helped those who participated to keep a bigger, more global focus in mind. She said with the project almost complete, there was still time to organise simple donation drives. The Lego money boxes. Image: Supplied “Even if it’s just maybe a love offering during a worship service [or] could even just be having a simple sausage sizzle fundraiser lunch after church,” she said. “There may not be time to do big organising of fundraising events, but just something simple that will still give people an opportunity to embrace the project and just do whatever we can.” Retired Commissioner Jan Condon said the cause was such a worthy one in which to get involved. “It is exciting to assist our brothers and sisters in a growing Salvation Army in the Solomon Islands,” she said. “Please make a contribution so that more people will come to know about Jesus.” To find out more about Making it Happen, see here .
