1929 The Salvation Army High Council 

Thank you Sally Army for all you do to help homeless people. You are a lifeline for so many.

Just because I can, and I think it is really cool...My Great Great Grandfather was Wilfred Simpson, one of the seven requisitioning commissioners, pictured at 10:32 on the left! I'm now helping teach some of the History of the SA to some students on a course run by Frelsesarmeen (the Salvation Army) in Norway. What a fun way to also learn family history!

Fascinating. My dad Col Brian Tuck was on the High Council many many years later.

Truly The Salvation Army has come from far n it's going far. Watching from Kenya East Territory,East Africa

Thank you David, we're glad you enjoyed it.

Retired General Larsson's book about 1929 is an excellent read. Very thoroughly researched.

Praise God from whom all blessings flow

Thank you for posting this.

Thank you

I Enjoyed watching this while High Council was going on. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina, South America East Territory.

Very well told! God bless!

David, thank you for your comment.

One of the comments asks why we no longer have 'open air meetings' any more. Simple lack of numbers compared to 20/25 years ago. In those days we had 3/5 meetings every Sunday.

Hafa, thank you for your kind comment.

Robert, thank you for your comment.

Thank you for sharing this. Thank God for the Booths - but thank God even more for the reformers, otherwise the Army would still be doing things the old way.

Would that the Army was still as much noticed and respected in this day and age as was the case in the days of Bramwell Booth!

yes always in need! when bad weather.

For me, the Salvation Army have a truly fascinating and inspiring history. However, I am at a loss to understand why the Open Air reaching of the Gospel seems almost non-existent among Salvationists! Please feel free to correct my conclusion, if you know different.

Poor old bloke....he was past it but did not want to relinquish power. Funny that power - even for Christians is a vice.

Perhaps new reform is needed again, it wasn't a shock out of the 2 Higgins was elected. I struggle with some of the changes at the fringes of society these days but people are people and equality is equality. Not that I'm accusing this great British institution of being anything other than its greatest organisation.

Gloria eterna a dio padre e gloria eterna a Gesù cristo nei secoli dei secoli senza fine . Gesù cristo tu sei il re dei re , sei il signore dei signori , sei il principe dei re della terra ,sei il principe della pace , sei il salvatore del mondo , sei l agnello di dio senza macchia morto in croce una volta per sempre per il perdono dei peccati di tutti. Amen amen amen
