The Salvation Army’s services of evangelism and social action began in East London, England in 1865 by Methodist minister William Booth and his wife, Catherine.

The Booths’ desire to share the gospel took shape amidst a city ridden with poverty and despair.

They quickly set aside their conventional church methods to meet the people where they lived and toiled – on the streets.

Their socially-conscious work was aggressive and innovative, venturing where few churches were willing or able.
