History


The Salvation Army was founded by William and Catherine Booth in London in 1865 as an Evangelical movement called the Christian Revival Association but changed its name to East London Christian Mission. After starting the work outside the East End, the name changed to The Christian Mission.

In 1878, the name was changed to The Salvation Army and a quasi-military outlook was adopted. On March 10, 1880, Commissioner George Scott Railton and seven young women arrived in the USA and began operations.
