Changing Shape, Changing Mission
January 24, 2009
The shape of our corps changes from tomorrow…the first key shift as we usher in our ‘Under the Fence’ strategy (see below). Last Sunday was our last weekly public meeting based on the old ‘build it and they will come’ paradigm. From tomorrow, we throw ourselves wholeheartedly into being a cell/ward corps.

Sanctification Day
January 9, 2009
Today is the day of salvation, like every other day. And today is the day to get holy like every other day, but today many Salvos around the world will be taking note of the up and rising ‘Salvation Army holiday’ called Sanctification Day.
