Have you heard the call?

Would you like to answer the call?

There are many different ways in that God may be calling you to service, for Him – it might be teaching Sunday School at your local corps, volunteering at a shelter or to help in disaster work, even participating in the corps weekly programs. Many people feel their call to be a life-altering experience. They feel that their place in ministry is working 24/7 as an Officer in The Salvation Army.

 

You might be thinking,

“Yes, I feel the call, but I have goals in life…I have a good career…I’m afraid”.

There are many opportunities in The Salvation Army to develop yourself and better your weaknesses. Talk to your corps officer (church pastor) about overcoming your obstacles so that you may go on to serve God faithfully.
