The Salvation Army Celebrates 30th Anniversary in Russia

GENERAL Brian Peddle and Commissioner Rosalie Peddle (World President of Women’s Ministries) were guest leaders as The Salvation Army celebrated the 30th anniversary of work restarting in Russia after the fall of the Communist regime.

 

The international leaders remained in London and shared online but officers, soldiers, friends and volunteers were delighted to have the opportunity to get together – at a location around 20 miles outside of Moscow – and celebrate the anniversary of The Salvation Army returning to Russia.

 

There were times of reminiscence but also a focus on today’s needs and consideration of the places where The Salvation Army might raise its flag in the future.

 

The meetings focused on a theme from the General’s Call to Mission – ‘Be Ready’, ‘Be Engaged’ and ‘Take Responsibility’.
