Congratulations on 125 years of service
to our community.
36 I am blessed. I am a blessing. I am The Salvation Army.
Thank you for leading the way in
“doing the most good” for 125 years.
3 I am hope. I am compassion.
Corps History The Salvation Army invaded the Hyde Park section of Scranton on March 22, 1885. Fourteen young men, all under the age of twenty-five, dressed smartly in red festival tunics, marched toward the audi-torium of St. David’s Hall.
Only twenty-five years prior, The Salva-tion Army began in London, England, and it was just beginning to gain ground in The United States. Their meetings gar-nered much media attention, most of which was negative, with quotes such as “latest novelties,” and “end men for a first class minstrel show” appearing in the local newspaper.
Over time though, The Salvation Army’s mission became clear. They were here in Scranton to reach the lost with the Good News of Jesus Christ, and to meet human needs in His name. Slowly but surely, people began to attend The Salvation Army’s services, and its numbers in-creased.
The Scranton Corps dedicated its first Citadel on March 25, 1892. Gen-eral William Booth, the Founder himself, traveled from London, England for the event. After its’ dedication as an official Corps, The Salvation Ar-my in Scranton set about helping the poor and marginalized of Lacka-wanna County. From its beginnings in Hyde Park, it moved to Penn Ave, and Poplar Street before finally settling at its current location on South Washington Ave.
Ever since it’s beginnings 125 years ago, The Salvation Army of Scranton has been serving the poor through Christmas Aid, Utility Assistance, chil-dren’s activities, women’s programs, drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities, and many, many other community services. To quote the Scranton Times, in their article from July 5, 2009, “The Salvation Army has come to take an indispensable place in our community.”
Scranton Salvationist Margaret Jenkins, c. 1900

ARC History For over 100 years, The Salvation Army has been fighting alcoholism and its’ effects through our 119 adult rehabilitation centers (ARC).
This ministry began in 1865 when William Booth, founder of The Salva-tion Army, opened shelters for homeless people on the streets of Eng-land. During this time many homeless people were also alcoholics,and it was in these shelters that the idea for a rehabilitation/sobriety program began.
By the 1940’s, the centers were developing a more professional counseling program, and in the 1950’s, The Salvation Army hired professional social workers and psychologists as permanent staff. Today, the rehabilitation services extend to those suffer-ing from alcoholism as well as multiple drug addictions.
The Salvation Army's ARC ministry is totally self-supporting, receiving no government funding. In order to support the ministry, The Salvation Ar-my takes discarded items that people donate, recycles them, and then sells them in Salvation Army thrift stores. Salvation Army facilities in the United States provide housing, clothing, medical attention and educa-tional aid to men and women who are seeking help with a drug or alco-hol addiction.
The ARC focuses recovery around the spiritual fulfillment that comes through a personal relationship with Christ, offering a variety of pro-grams that practically accent this spiritual ideal. Recently, new programs have been developed that serve the growing population of women with addictions, but historically, the ARC ministry has been focused on men dealing with alcohol and drug addictions.

Salvation Army History William Booth, the Founder and first General of The Salvation Army, was born into economic and spiritual poverty in Nottingham, England. As a teenager, he was an apprentice to a pawnbroker and experienced first -hand the results of poverty and sin.
He was converted at the young age of fifteen, and soon after, became active in the ministry. He loved to preach on the street corners because his heart burned with compassion for the lost souls of East London.
Booth was ordained a minister in the Methodist Church, but he soon discovered that his converts were not welcomed in the established churches. In 1865, he began the Christian Mission, which, in 1878, was renamed The Salvation Army.
Booth was ahead of his time in his recognition that no human being would listen to his message while they were hungry, cold or homeless. Thus, the Army’s international social and humanitarian programs were initiated. The concept of holistic ministry became the keystone of Army programming. “Heart to God and hand to man” is the focus of all Army activities.
Today, the Army serves humanity openly in 118 countries and ministers in virtually every language. 4,000 officers 150,000 soldiers and 54,000 Advisory Board members serve millions of our fellow Americans annual-ly through the Army’s 11,000 centers of operations.
This year, your Scranton Salvation Army celebrates 125 years of un-broken service to the people of Lackawanna County, and we promise to continue to provide help to the hurting and hope to the hopeless. With your support, we will continue to keep “doing the most good.”
31 I am doing the most good.
30 I am an answered prayer. A silver lining. A second chance.
9 I serve a sovereign God.
Dear Friends of the Army; I am proud to have grown up in NE PA because I know that the people are some of the hardest working and most generous you will ever find. The Salvation Army has given me the privilege of serving in Scranton and for that, I am truly grateful. Your support means that we can continue to “Do the Most Good” in Lackawanna County. Thank you for believing in our mission and our ministry. With your help we are making a difference in the lives of many in our community. I leave you with a quote from Winston Churchill: “We make a living by what we get, we make a life by what we give.” With sincere thanks,
Bea Major Bea Connell

Following her graduation from Marywood Seminary, she entered the religious community of Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary in Scranton, and was pro-fessed in 1949.
She received a bachelor of arts degree from Marywood College *now University+ and a masters degree from St. John’s University, where she majored in Afro-Asian history. Sister Adrian taught in a variety of schools in Pennsylvania, New York and Maryland. Prior to returning to this area, she taught at St. Dominic’s High School, Oyster Bay, L.I. where she chaired the history department.
In 1980, the University of Scranton designated a Presidential Scholar-ship for the years 1980-1984 as the Sister Adrian Barrett, IHM Scholar-ship. Additionally, the University conferred and honorary degree, Doc-tor of Social Science, on Sister Adrian in May of 1986.

Former Governor Robert P. Casey appointed Sister Adrian to the Penn-sylvania Council of Aging . She is also a former member of the Bread-basket of Northeastern PA. Other awards include Amos Lodge, B’nai B’rith Americanism Award, Martha Brinton Wollerton Award, Scranton Sunday Times Newsmaker, Michael J. Eagen Humanitarian Award, and scores of others.

Commissioner
Robert Watson (R) Commissioners Robert A and Alice E Watson were appointed as The Salva-tion Army’s national leaders for the United States on November 1, 1995. As National Commander, Commissioner Robert A. Watson coordinated the functions of The Salvation Army in the United States from National Head-quarters in Alexandria, VA, and Commissioner Alice E. Watson served as National President of Women’s Organizations. Together, the Watsons served as active officers in The Salvation Army for more than 40 years. They have traveled to nearly 50 countries during their Army Service.
As National Commander, Commissioner Watson was the chief spokesman for the Army and the General in the United States. He served as the Army’s official representative in federal government relations, maintaining regular contacts with the executive and legislative branches. Having been invited to serve as Guest Chaplain for the U.S. Senate and the House of Represent-atives, he was called upon to open sessions of both houses of Congress in prayer. He was also responsible for the relationship of The Salvation Army as a non-governmental organization to the United Nations and met with the Secretary General and other U.N. leaders to discuss the global work of The Salvation Army.
Along with their responsibilities or the work of the Army in this country, the Watsons served on the International Conference of Leaders, which met in Melbourne and London. They were both members of the 1999 High Council, made up of 75 Salvation Army leaders from around the world, which met at Sunbury Court, near London, to elect a new world leader of the Army. Commissioner Robert Watson was elected and served as presi-dent of that High Council. He also served with nine other leaders from several continents on the Advisory Council to the General, which met several times a year in London.
Two of the Watson’s children are Salvation Army Officers. Their youngest son is a profes-sional employee of the Army. The Watsons have eight grandchildren. The greatest joy of Commissioners Watson is to help further the mission of The Salvation Army: “…to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ, and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination.”

Mike Stevens Mike Stevens has been a member of the Newswatch 16 staff since 1982 and has travelled the Pennsylvania road all the while.
There is, he believes, a story in each of us – a tale just waiting to be told – and he has been more than willing to tell an inter-esting story about some of the folks he has discovered along the Pennsylvania road.
Folks who carve or whittle, who draw on glass, who build things from wood or mold them from clay or paint them with oils all have been featured at one time or another in Mike’s travels.
He’s done similar stories for WNEP’s Home and Backyard pro-gram, which he also hosts, and some stories dealing with the outdoors and the fun that is to be had in the Pennsylvania wilds.
Mike has also done work for news-papers and magazines in the re-gion, and has published four pa-perback collections of his works under the title “Life in the Slow Lane,” and practices his nature and scenic photography skills to aid himself in illustrating his printed pieces.
Mike and his wife Judy make their home in Lackawanna County.

18 I am doing the most good.
As the chief commanding officer of a very frugal organization, General William Booth searched endlessly for the shortest message that could be sent by telegraph that would still bear tribute to the Army's creed
and at the same time convey the spirit of the season.
What was the message Booth finally chose to send to his officers in the field? A one word message that over a hundred years later still best
epitomizes the work of The Salvation Army. The greeting simply read "Others".

I am Doing The Most Good.
I am hope. I am compassion.
I am strength. I am faith.
I am Doing The Most Good.
I serve a community. A region. A nation. A world.
I serve heroes. I serve victims.
I serve a sovereign God.
I am Doing The Most Good.
I am an Army. Drafted by the Creator.
Commissioned by a man who defied death. My enemies are despair and destruction.
My ammunition is grace and mercy. My allies are generosity and benevolence.
I am an Army. Helping others be all they can be.
I am Doing The Most Good.
I feed empty stomachs and hungry souls. I rebuild ruined homes and shattered lives.
I am a willing listener for a veteran with stories to tell. I am a bottled water and an encouraging smile—
for a weary firefighter. I am an answered prayer.
A silver lining. A second chance.
I am Doing The Most Good.
I am a humble steward of other people's generosity. I am a grateful courier of a stranger's kindness. I am the faithful executor of others' goodwill.
I take responsibility seriously. I am blessed.
I am a blessing. I am The Salvation Army.
I am Doing The Most Good.
"There is no reward equal to that of doing the most good to the most people in the most need.” - Evangeline Booth
