MOVEMENT FOUNDED ON THIS DAY IN 1865
In the East End of London on July 2, 1865, revivalist preacher
William Booth and his wife Catherine established the Christian
Mission, later known as the Salvation Army.
Determined to wage war against the evils of poverty and
religious indifference with military efficiency, Booth modeled
his Methodist sect after the British army, labeling uniformed
ministers as “officers” and new members as “recruits.”
