Kids today have no shortage of heroes. From Hollywood celebrities to music artists and sports figures, it would seem that there are plenty of heroes to go around. The heroes being offered by popular culture are teaching children that physical perfection, financial success, and fame are the most important goals in life. The morals and values presented by these heroes are often in direct opposition to the standards parents want to pass on to their children. So, while there is no shortage of heroes, there is a dreadful shortage of heroes worth emulating.

  • Methodists in Military Garb
    Aldersgate Papers, Vol.2 September 2001 METHODISTS IN MILITARY GARB The Salvation Army as a living expression of John Wesley's movement by Alan R. Harley Introduction I worshipped everything that bore the name of Methodist. To me there was one God, and Wesley was his prophet. I had devoured the story of his life. No human compositions seemed to me to be comparable to his writings, and to the hymns of his brother Charles, and all that was wanted, in my estimation, for the salvation of the world, was the faithful carrying out into practice of the letter and the spirit of his instructions.1 So said the young William Booth. Even though Booth's subsequent writings make scant reference to Wesley and things Methodist, these words, uttered when twenty years old, find an echo in all Booth did in his subsequent ministry. Salvationist historians have called the early Salvation Army "old Time Methodism" and "a derivation of Methodism". The purpose of this paper is to ask if indeed there is such a relationship between Methodism and the Salvation Army. At the outset a difficulty is acknowledged. The younger movement has developed a strikingly distinctive identity, polity and ethos. These tend to make Salvation- ists feel self-contained rather than in continuity with a larger, older movement. It can be argued that in a significant number of instances these 'distinctives' represent the influence of the parent body. 1 F.

Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jssw.v2n2a11 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.15640/jssw.v2n2a11 The Last Flight of an Angel: A Historical Ethnography of The Salvation Army’s Home for Unwed Mothers Kimber M. Wickersham, Ph. D., LCSW1 & Denise M. Green, Ph.D., LCSW1 Abstract At the turn of the twentieth century The Salvation Army looked upon unwed pregnant women as sisters in need of a helping hand. These fallen females needed rescuing. The first maternity homes were therefore called Rescue Homes. The Salvation Army Rescue Home for Women in Birmingham, Alabama, established during the first decade of the twentieth century, was the first and last rescue home in the Southeast. Although there were several changes in address, changes in name, changes in clientele, and changes in service delivery, there was never a change in the mission. The length of stay and the criteria for admission changed to accommodate the public’s needs. The facility and staff were adjusted as social attitudes changed. However, the mission to assist females in need, and thereby help the community as a whole, never changed. This paper is a historical ethnography of the sole Salvation Army Maternity Home and thechanges in society’s perception of unwed pregnant girls and the opportunities afforded them. Introduction In 1944, Maud Morlock, United States Children’s Bureau, consultant on services, was gathering information to create pamphlets describing The Salvation Army Homes and Hospitals.

  • The Salvation Army International Heritage Centre Subject Guide Wars and Conflict
    THE SALVATION ARMY INTERNATIONAL HERITAGE CENTRE SUBJECT GUIDE WARS AND CONFLICT This guide offers an overview of the archives and published sources relating to Salvation Army’s activities during wars and international conflict. The overview covers material held at the Salvation Army International Heritage Centre and other institutions. You can find a large number of our records via our online catalogue. Background The Salvation Army’s work amongst the armed forces began with the establishment of the Naval and Military League in November 1894. Operating in times of peace and war the League was 'chiefly concerned with the Spiritual and moral welfare of Salvationists in the Forces and their dependants.' Its five point covenant included the command 'To do my best to bring my comrades to Christ.' By the end of the nineteenth century the League was associated with UK armed forces in the UK, Malta and Gibraltar. Officers of the League, including Mary Stewart Murray, served with UK forces in the Second Anglo-Boer War in 1899- 1900. The League's activities expanded during the First World War as representatives joined UK armed forces based in Europe, Egypt, Mesopotamia and Greece. As well as continuing to provide chaplains and hostels for members of armed forces, the Salvation Army also supplied motor ambulances, mobile canteens and parcels of food and clothing to battle zones. Female American Salvationists became popularly known as 'doughnut girls' for their provision of refreshments to troops in France. During the Second World War the Salvation Army joined the UK Council of Voluntary Welfare Workers. The Salvation Army also established a War Emergencies Department to co-ordinate its war activities.
