The Surprising Story Behind The Salvation Army and Its Founders William and Catherine Booth
Manage episode 522611575 series 2943947
On this episode of Our American Stories, long before the familiar kettles and bell ringers appeared outside stores around Christmastime, The Salvation Army began as a small ministry founded by William and Catherine Booth, two people determined to reach those who had nowhere else to turn. With help from Vision Video and their documentary Our People: The Story of William and Catherine Booth, we look back at the movement’s earliest days and how the Booths shaped The Salvation Army into a global force for relief and spiritual care.
