It provides a forum for officers and employees: • to instruct in the theology, philosophy, technology, policies and standards of Salvation Army service. • to inspire dedicated service in the spirit of Christ. • to share ideas and resources representing the best of Salvation Army program and practice. • to explore emerging issues and new technologies in human service, encouraging appropriate organizational response. From the National Commander 2 | The Power of One Army Transforming Our World Legacy of Love “Pure and lasting religion in the sight of God means that we must care for orphans and widows in their troubles.” – James 1:27 (NLT) In 1955, The Salvation Army of Kingston, Jamaica opened The Nest, a children’s home for abandoned, displaced, and orphaned girls. The facility, which was located five miles northwest of downtown, had a capacity of 22. However, in 1975, dormitories for boys were built and the capacity expanded to 45 (23 boys and 22 girls). In 1989, the facility was severely damaged by Hurricane Gilbert. Although repaired, many challenges still remained. The program provides a safe and loving environment for children, opportunity for academic pursuit and vocational training, basic life skills to equip children to become independent and self-sufficient, as well as a spiritual foundation of Christian truths and values. On average, approximately 90 children are cared for each year at The Nest, Kingston, Jamaica. Commitment cards will be received at the conclusion of each plenary session, as well as at the conference office.
