25.01.2022 Theres been a bit of friendly rivalry for some time between volunteer cooks Pete McCarthy and Jess Artis in the kitchen at The Salvation Army's Brisbane Streetlevel Mission. Theyve always been happy to take friendly potshots and baste each other with a little light-hearted banter, but it wasn't until Jess decided to enrol in the Busy at Work Certificate 2 in Kitchen Operations that Petes competitive nature began to show. Find out how it all went down and how Streetlevel is assisting people to get skilled in our story! #livelovefight Brisbane Streetlevel Mission

24.01.2022 Stuck for ideas on what to do in mandatory hotel quarantine? How about run a marathon? Or a few?! A Sunshine Coast family has returned to Australia from Canada unexpectedly due to COVID-19 and decided to spend their 14-day mandatory quarantine by walking, jogging, jumping or running 300km in their hotel room to raise money for The Salvation Army. I have been a long-term attendee of the mainly music program firstly at Ipswich Salvation Army ... then Maroochydore Salvos," says Nicola Ross. Our connection, through this, has given me an insight into the great work the Salvos do. I think we all need hope at the moment and Im sure that there will be many arms of the Salvos work being stretched with such need in communities around the world. #livelovefight The Salvation Army Ipswich Darryl ArmyWhitecross

23.01.2022 "Holy Caped Crusader Collection, Batman!" The Salvation Army Museum Manager Lindsay Cox has been collecting statues of the famed fighter of baddies since 1985 and has an impressive 330 pieces in his collection. #livelovefight Lindsay Charles Cox The Salvation Army Australia - Museum

23.01.2022 What a wonderful testimony of a front-line worker! Matt Arasteh is Manager of The Salvation Army's Pacific Lodge Aged Care Centre in Sydney. For him, every day is an opportunity to follow Jesus: "Matthew 28:16-20 says you and I were given the great commission. I see my workplace in The Salvation Army as a great mission field. I live out my faith in the workplace by treating people with respect and not being shy to talk about what God has done in my life. #livelovefight The Salvation Army Aged Care

22.01.2022 A friendship with a Salvation Army soldier at her work led Jo-Anne Groarke into conversations about faith and Jesus. Ten years later, she invited Jesus into her heart and suddenly experienced freedom and belonging. Congratulations Jo-Anne on your enrolment as an adherent in The Salvation Army! #livelovefight The Salvation Army Goulburn Tuesday McCall

22.01.2022 The coronavirus pandemic has moved Salvos in Ararat and Stawell in Victoria outside the church building and into homes for organic church. Pre-COVID, nearly 40 people would attend Salvation Army services at the two corps. With the onset of COVID-19, formal services stopped and prior to Stage 3 Lockdown, there were 16 small groups and nearly 80 people engaged in meeting together in homes to pray, read Gods word and share in meals together! Hallelujah!!! Pictured here, corps m...embers Hamish (left) and Bec (right) give demonstrations of stories found in Johns Gospel in their individual homes. (Photos taken prior to the second lockdown and mask regulations.) #livelovefight Rod Yule The Salvation Army Stawell The Salvation Army Ararat Corps The Salvation Army - Victoria Bruce Stevens Bruce Harmer

22.01.2022 For The Salvation Army’s Emergency Services in Western Australia, it's been "all hands on deck" from the beginning of the year as its teams have worked hard to bring support, relief and thousands of meals to fire-fighters and other first responders in back-to-back operations in and around Perth. #livelovefight The Salvation Army Strategic Emergency & Disaster Management Australia The Salvation Army WA Emergency Services

22.01.2022 It's all about loving Jesus and loving others at Rockdale Salvation Army in Sydney's south!

20.01.2022 Moonee Valley Corps Officer Lieutenant Erin Mains has been awarded the 2020 Eva Burrows Scholarship to study therapeutic arts for use in working alongside people who have experienced trauma, isolation or other struggles. I would like to help break down the barriers and help people explore different methods that encourage them to enter back into the community and feel a sense of value, she says. Now that's living, loving and fighting! #livelovefight Salvation Army Moonee Valley Melbourne Australia Salvos Recovery Church Moonee Valley Erin Mains

19.01.2022 Today, Remembrance Day, Others would like to take a moment to remember our casualty of war, Red Shield Defence Service representative, Bill Tibbs. Although many Australian Salvation Army chaplains and workers returned from war sick or injured, one never returned... Lest we forget. #livelovefight

19.01.2022 Scott Chamberlain says he's known God all his life but went "off track" when he started partying. When he joined The Salvation Army at Project 614 in Bourke Street, Melbourne, he reconnected with his faith and found a community who loved him. Hallelujah! #livelovefight The Salvation Army Melbourne Project 614 Barry Gittins

19.01.2022 This Sunday marks the 120th anniversary of The Salvation Army's 'Soldiers of the Cross' - an innovative production often referred to as the worlds first feature film. The house lights went down, reported The War Cry. The audience were hushed into breathless silence as the immense pictures were thrown upon the canvas. The Commandants voice alone broke the stillness, thrilling the enthralled audience with burning words, forming an eloquent and beautiful tribute to the heroic deeds of the saints whose pictorial reproduction riveted every eye. #livelovefight The Salvation Army Australia - Museum Lindsay Charles Cox

16.01.2022 Old fashioned 'snail mail' is making a come-back in the middle of lock-down in Ballarat, Victoria, as The Salvation Army connects in a new way with young people at risk. These young people find a place of trust and begin to find out about themselves, and thats a spiritual journey, said Fiona White, chaplain at The Salvation Army Homelessness Ballarat service. #livelovefight Bruce Harmer Bruce Stevens The Salvation Army Homelessness Ballarat

15.01.2022 On December 9, we hear from Joshua Alexander, of Eplus, who asks the question: 'What is God's greatest attribute?' #livelovefight Employment Plus

15.01.2022 Wow! Our very own Sallyma'am, Captain Gai Cathcart has been recognised for her outstanding work in the Red Shield Defence Services (RSDS) with a nomination in the Women in Defence Awards. As Christ’s ‘hands and feet’ to members of the Australian Army serving on the frontlines, Gai says her role is all about serving Jesus and the people in front of her faithfully. As she says, It’s Jesus in me. #livelovefight Gai Cathcart The Salvation Army Red Shield Defence Services National HQ The Sallyman - Red Shield Defence Services, Adelaide - RAAF Base Edinburgh Brett Gallagher

14.01.2022 The Salvation Army’s emergency services' relief supplies and teams on the ground have been stretched to the limit in Fiji in the wake of significant weather events, the latest being the Category 5 Cyclone Yasa, one the worst cyclones to hit the Pacific Ocean basin, in mid-December. #livelovefight The Salvation Army New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa Territory

14.01.2022 In her viewpoint for others.org.au, Captain Manika Mera shares her heart for relational Kingdom building, saying the COVID-19 pandemic has reinforced the need for the Church to lead the salvation war in alternate ways. "The pandemic did not have a significant impact on our version of the Church due to our focus on building real relationships. In our faith community, there is no structured partnership between a pastor and a congregation; instead, we are all equal as friends, exploring Jesus and deeply reflecting on the Word of God. We dont have any worship service or songs, but we only read the Bible continuously week by week, and through that, people have come to faith." How is your corps being church differently these days? #livelovefight Mera Monty Peter Hobbs

13.01.2022 The first sod has been turned on a multimillion-dollar community and family precinct in the North Queensland mining town of Gladstone and The Salvation Army is heavily involved, being the lead provider of services in the new precinct. #livelovefight Chris Ford Salvation Army Gladstone David Godkin Peter Sutcliffe

13.01.2022 Have you heard about the latest initiative to come from the Salvos' Common Ground housing facility in Hobart? They've started 'Art Fridays,' and are using art therapy to create community, and restore the building which was damaged by fire! #livelovefight The Salvation Army Tasmania Brad Watson

13.01.2022 I like to think that policing is a calling for me as part of my faith, says Detective Sergeant and Salvo Trevor Russell, who oversees the Human Trafficking Taskforce for the Southern Command of the Australian Federal Police (AFP). Supporting the vulnerable and giving back to society are certainly compatible with Christianity and strike a definite chord with the Salvos. #livelovefight

12.01.2022 Want to know what "transforming Australia one life at a time with the love of Jesus" actually looks like? Head out to Moree in north-west New South Wales where the focus is on generational change by investing heavily in mentoring young people. Corps co-leader, Jason Poutawa likens the model to that of Jesus, who had powerful connection points with multitudes of people during his ministry but heavily invested into just 12 his disciples. You look at the impact that Jesus made on those 12 and then the impact that they made on the world after he left. That is central to what we are doing with Deadly Diamonds and with Salvos Mentoring to get to those places of trust and intimacy and connection ... and to consistently be a positive role model on their journey. #livelovefight Moree Salvos Jason Poutawa Jessica Poutawa

12.01.2022 A team from Gladstone Corps in Central Queensland has hitched the wagons and taken its Mobile Recovery Service roadshow to the tiny township of Builyan to assist people affected by fires and drought. The creek has stopped flowing and we only have a couple of small waterholes left now, one farmer said, adding that the assistance he and his wife had received had made a huge difference to our budget." #livelovefight Chris Ford Salvation Army Gladstone Peter Sutcliffe The Salvation Army Strategic Emergency & Disaster Management Australia

11.01.2022 Twenty years ago today, S.J. Finn saw her vision for International Overdose Awareness Day (IOAD) come to life. A small group of guests joined her behind The Salvation Army St Kilda Crisis Services wearing silver ribbons, to remember the people theyd lost to a drug overdose. When I started IOAD, I met clients who had lost sometimes up to 17 friends from an overdose, and they really didnt feel they had any right to mourn for these people because of the way in which they had died, said Finn. I felt it was time to put a day aside on the calendar to mark the deaths of those wed lost and those who had suffered permanent injury from an overdose. And also, to raise awareness about how these deaths could be prevented. #livelovefight Bruce Stevens Bruce Harmer The Salvation Army - Victoria

11.01.2022 December is nearly here, and that means it's time to set up the tree and pop on a Christmas movie! Our reviewer Jessica Morris loved, "Christmas Jars," out December 3 - and said, "With a diverse cast and an exposé into betrayal and forgiveness, this film is almost as rare as Santa riding a unicorn." Now you can experience the joy of watching "Christmas Jars" too! Others has 10 passes to give away thanks to Heritage Films.

10.01.2022 Its the most wonderful experience to have a second bite at the cherry and to enjoy being a dad to Noelle, says recently retired Salvation Army Major Len Turner, who has full-time care of his 10-year-old granddaughter, Noelle. Wishing all our fathers a Happy Father's Day today and our prayers are with those in lock-down who cannot visit their families. #livelovefight Len Turner

10.01.2022 He wasnt expecting it. Thats what made the surprise all the sweeter. Tom Connah is used to giving out rather than taking in. The long-serving Sydney Congress Hall adherent was surprised recently by 'Yard Brass', a corps brass group that's been blessing people during COVID-19 by playing in their front yards. Not only did they play for the 81-year-old, they also presented a certificate of appreciation for his years of selfless service. #livelovefight Matt Reeve Clare Reeve Carolyn Young O'Brien The Salvation Army Sydney Congress Hall

09.01.2022 Commissioner Janine Donaldson speaks about blessing in the waiting, as hard as it might be. Speaking from Deuteronomy and Isaiah, she reminds us that we are never alone and Gods timing is perfect. #livelovefight Janine Donaldson Robert Donaldson

07.01.2022 I don't know about you, but walking on country, hearing directly from local Aboriginal elders and yarning around a campfire? That sounds like an amazing way to start conversations about reconciliation! That's exactly what happened last weekend on The Salvation Army's 'A Step Towards Reconciliation' trek on Western Australia's iconic Bibbulman Track. #livelovefight Steven Freind Marenda Freind

07.01.2022 In the early 1980s, the then corps officers at Morwell corps, Captains Winsome and Kelvin Merritt bought a block of land on which to build a faciity to help with the corps' Local Mission Delivery. Now, 30 years on as the Australia Territory Chief Secretary, Colonel Winsome Merrett has officially opened a custom-built welfare centre on that land. The current COs, Majors Alan and Denise Milkins, oversaw the completion of the $850,000 Latrobe Doorways project and invited the Merretts to the official opening. #livelovefight Winsome Merrett Kelvin Merrett The Salvation Army Morwell https://others.org.au//full-circle-opening-at-morwell-30-/

07.01.2022 The Salvation Army recently got behind a refugee soccer tournament in Toowoomba, literally boots and all! The tournament was run by Mercy Community and Major Deon Oliver, the Army's Area Officer for south west Queensland "scored" with equipment, mainly boots from family and Salvos Stores in the area, to kit-out some of the players. Nice! #livelovefight Mercy Community

07.01.2022 140 years go, on 5 September 1880, Edward Saunders and John Gore conducted an evangelical meeting from the back of that cart under a huge river red gum tree. At the end of the meeting Gore put out an invitation: If theres a man here who hasnt had a square meal today, let him come home to tea with me, he is reported to have said. While this date is commemorated as the beginnings of The Salvation Army in Australia, things didnt get official until an officer couple, Thomas and Adelaide Sutherland, were sent by William Booth to Australia in 1881. So much has changed since then, but Salvationists continue to 'save souls, grow saints and serve suffering humanity' in a myriad of different ways. #livelovefight

07.01.2022 Commissioner Robert Donaldson reflects on one of the last prayers of Jesus before his death and resurrection, and what it means for us - his followers - today. #livelovefight Robert Donaldson Janine Donaldson

07.01.2022 Toompine, 80km south of Quilpie on the Dowling Track in outback Queensland was once a thriving opal mining town. Every year the Salvos visit to put on a Christmas concert.

05.01.2022 Have you heard of The Salvation Army Faith Communities Development (FCD) team? FCD Secretary, Major Sandra McLean says the COVID-19 crisis has revealed that the traditional model of church is not working for the large majority. We have seen corps take up the opportunities that COVID-19 has provided to stop doing things that werent working for them and to try new innovations. The FDC team wants to support faith communities at times like this, by meeting them where they are at. It helps corps leaders to turn things they have been doing out of necessity during the coronavirus time into an intentional strategy. Find out how to get in touch by clicking through to the story! #livelovefight Sandra McLean Bryce Davies

05.01.2022 Salvationists from Cairns Corps weren't going to let COVID-19 restrictions stop them from spreading Christmas cheer this year, so they hired a 'party' bus to criss-cross the streets on Monday evenings during December with corps members playing and singing carols and Christmas songs. Corps Officer, Major Ben Johnson said it was the corps’ way of thanking our community for all their support in these tough times. #livelovefight Salvos Cairns Ben Johnson Emma Johnson

04.01.2022 At 65, Floreat Corps Officer Major Lyn Jones could have eased herself into retirement.

03.01.2022 The Salvation Army is reimaging some of its ministry opportunities in the City of Churches. In recent weeks, the congregations of the Oakden and Campbelltown corps in north-east Adelaide have been holding joint worship services in a local school hall.
