The Salvation Army is part of the Wesleyan-Holiness family of churches in The American Church Story. 152 congregations of the Wesleyan-Holiness family gather across Pennsylvania — 4,365 across the United States on The Church Map.
The Wesleyan-Holiness churches have insisted that God does not merely forgive people, he changes them — and they took that straight to the poorest streets they could find. The Salvation Army's kettles and soup lines, a century of rescue missions, and an early and costly record of ordaining women all came out of this family.
Find The Salvation Army on The Church Map, explore nearby congregations, and pray for its community.
