International Mission and History

    The Salvation Army (TSA) was founded in 1865 when London, England - based Reverend William Booth forfeited the comfort of his pulpit and took his message into the decrepit streets of East London to reach the poor, the homeless, the hungry and the destitute.
     By the late 1800s, TSA was operational in the United States, and by the early 1900s, the Army had spread around the globe. Today, TSA operates in more than 100 countries and continues to work where local needs are greatest
