Salvation Factory

Please feel free to view and share our posts and resources from over the years. May God bless you.

Fun Fact Friday! Today is our last Fun Fact Friday before our team transitions into new roles. Enjoy a sampling of Salvation Army trivia and historical knowledge we've discovered over the last five years. We've loved bringing you these weekly Fun Facts and hope that you were both informed, entertained, and inspired by them. May the knowledge from our past guide us into new fields of mission and Kingdom work. Please follow The Salvation Army Heritage Museum as they carry on our Fun Fact Friday tradition. God bless, and thank you.

Friends, we are happy to announce that effective September 1, 2020, Lu Lu Rivera will be joining the Communications Department as Staff Photographer and Media Content Creator. Her gifts and skills have blessed the nations as she has developed so many videos, photographs, graphics, and social media/web content through Salvation Factory. We will miss her, but know that God is going to use her in mighty ways as she steps into this new avenue of ministry!

Friends, we are happy to announce that effective September 1, 2020, Rob Jeffery will be stepping into the role of Heritage Museum Director. He and Tara will be continuing to support the Territory telling the story of the incredible heritage we have as Salvationists.

Please be praying for Rob as he takes up this new mantle under the Territorial Program Section.

Fun Fact Friday! We've always been an international Army. The World for God! [But can you imagine trying to translate in 33 different languages in a time when amplification technology was just coming on-line?]

Salvation Factory updated their business hours.

Effective September 1st, Salvation Factory will evolve into the Territorial Mission Strategy Department, within the Office of the Chief Secretary.

While the Salvation Factory team will be going in different directions, it has been our honor to serve The Salvation Army for the past eight years. We want to thank the USA Eastern Territory and the members of this innovative team who have served with excellence: Rob Jeffery, Scott Martel, Tara-Marie Profita, Lu Lu Rivera, and Nicolas Roman. Please be praying for each of these team members as they embrace their future adventures.

The resources that Salvation Factory has developed will continue to be available. The Program Section will assume oversight of the Salvation Factory website and page.

Thank you for your support over the years - it has been an incredible adventure! We pray that Salvation Factory has been a blessing to you.

Challenging words from Catherine Booth! May we, as the church, be notably different to the world around us!

Fun Fact Friday! By the way, have you seen the great new play, 'Skeleton Army' put on by our very own Arts Bureau? It's all about the early life of Charles Jeffries who started out as a leader in the anti-Salvation Army mob called the Skeleton Army. Hopefully when live theater becomes a thing again it's something you can check out. We highly recommend it! 💀🎭

We serve a God who can do "immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine" (Ephesians 3:20-21). Let's allow Him to empower us today!

Have you spent time with God today in prayer? He is waiting to refresh and renew you!

Fun Fact Friday! We discovered last week when we first released this Fun Fact that The Salvation Army USA actually had 3 farm colonies in its history (one more than the two we reported). Let us know if you're aware of any more. 😀🐔🐷🐴🐄🐓🌾🥦🥬🥒🌽🥕🧅🥔🥚🍞🚜

Here is a challenge from Elijah Cadman that should inspire us to don our uniform and get out of our buildings to share Jesus with those in our community.

May God grant our officers, soldiers and volunteers love, sympathy, holy zeal and mighty faith as they serve those in need in their communities.

In these challenging days, may our lives tell for Christ!

A great reminder from General Bramwell Booth - May the current challenges serve to bring us closer to the Lord and strengthen our faith.

In 1919, Evangeline Booth wrote an incredible piece during the Spanish Flu pandemic entitled, “The Miracle of the Past – The Wonder of the Future.”

In the midst of this crisis, God provided an opportunity which The Salvation Army seized: the opportunity to serve on the frontlines of WW1! They took a loan from the bank - recognizing that the risk of this lost opportunity was too great to ignore.

That bold decision was what is called a "strategic inflection point" - a moment that changed the trajectory of The Salvation Army in the United States. Today, we still live with the after-effects of that bold and visionary step of faith.

As you read this story of the miracle of the past, consider the wonders of the future on the horizon as we journey through the challenges of 2020. God is opening doors of opportunity all around us. Could this be an opportunity for another strategic inflection point? Enjoy and be inspired!
