They have served as officers since they were commissioned in 1990 as members of the Ambassa- dors for Christ Session. They assumed their current appointments as the Chief of the Staff and World Secretary for Women’s Ministries on 3 August 2018. In January, 2021, Commissioner Bronwyn Buckingham assumed the additional appointment as World Secretary for Spiritual Life Development. Over the years of their officership they have served in corps appoint- ments in New Zealand and Canada, as Territorial Youth and Candidates Secretaries, Divisional Leaders and Territorial Program Secretaries. On 1 February 2013 the Buckinghams were appointed to the Singapore, Malaysia and Myanmar Territory, firstly as Chief Secretary and Territorial Secretary for Women's Ministries, before assuming territorial leadership in June 2013. On 1 January 2018 they were appointed to lead the United Kingdom Territory with the Republic of Ireland, Commissioner Lyndon Buckingham as Territorial Commander and Commissioner Bronwyn Buckingham as Territorial Leader for Leader Development. Bronwyn and Lyndon are parents to Daniel and Emma, and their lovely daughter-in-law, Juanita. Daniel and Juanita are Corps Officers and Emma is currently a cadet in training, all in New Zealand. They are proud grandparents to Israel and Tobias. They are continually blessed, encouraged and challenged by the desire of their adult children to serve God in their generation. In each of their appointments the Buckinghams have displayed a desire to see the great news of the gospel shared. Bronwyn is inspired by the belief that God has a new truth to reveal to her daily and compelled by the promise that He is continuing to grow and stretch her (Philippians 1:6). She desires to be the woman God is calling her to be and is passionate to be part of an Army where the next generation will choose to embrace their leadership calling. Lyndon is passionate about finding ways for The Salvation Army to be more effective in fulfilling its mission. He is determined to be faithful to the covenants he has made, and is motivated by verses from Paul’s letter to the Colossians: ‘Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men’ (Colossians 3:23) Both are intent on enjoying life, endeavoring to stay fit by walking and jogging. They enjoy reading, watch- ing good movies and are avid supporters of New Zealand’s ‘All Blacks’ rugby team! Commissioners Lyndon and Bronwyn Buckingham Southern Bible Conference 2021 Featured Speakers Dr. Carla Sunberg was elected 43rd general superintendent of the Church of the Nazarene at the 29th General Assembly in Indianapolis, Indiana, in June 2017.
