Thank you William and Catherine Booth for responding to God's call all those many years ago.
We thank God for our global movement that's currently operating in 134 countries! To God be the Glory!

Despite societal constraints, she boldly preached and advocated for women's rights, establishing The Salvation Army in 1865 alongside her husband, William Booth.

Salvation Army in Ansonia recognizes trailblazer during Black History Month


As we reach the halfway point of Black History Month, we continue to honor trailblazers like Delilah Collier, O.F., whose life was dedicated to faith, inclusion, and service.
In 1977, Delilah co-founded the Eastern Territory Black Ministries Committee to amplify Black voices and advocate for leadership training within The Salvation Army. Her legacy of unwavering hospitality, encouragement, and love is a powerful reminder of the impact one individual can have in shaping a better future.
Let’s continue to celebrate Black history this month, reflecting on powerful stories like Delilah’s, and working together toward equity, love, and justice for all.
