Twenty New Corps Official Logo
Have you heard about the USA Central Territory’s new initiative “Twenty New Corps” that Commissioners Paul and Carol Seiler launched during the 2016 Commissioning weekend?
(If you weren’t at Commissioning, watch the video https://livestream.com/accounts/150760/events/5520717/videos/125972264, time markers 1:04:30 to 1:15:11)
Through this exciting new initiative we will focus our self-denial giving on building or improving 20 Salvation Army corps ministries around the world in 2017.  The goal is two-fold: to assist territories around the world in constructing or renovating corps buildings to carry out the gospel mission and to increase sacrificial giving by Central Territory Salvationists.
The World Missions Department is in the process of developing resources and securing the 20 corps projects, but it’s not too early for you to begin planning how your corps or division will be involved in this initiative.
