Introducing our newest Junior Soldiers in WA!!! Congratulations to Annabelle & Alexander for choosing to say YES to following Jesus everyday & take the step to become Junior Soldiers 👏

It was great to visit The Salvation Army Kwinana today to celebrate 2 new Junior Soldiers 🥳 Emery joined me for the trip and we were blessed to bring home the flowers.

These flowers are gifted each week to the Church from a local florist which started with one generation & now continues to be done in honour of their father who has passed on the family business, but as a commitment to the community.

It was great to meet Terry who is behind the Munchie Mates initiative to support the 1 in 6 children in Kwinana who face food insecurity each weekend.

Just two stories of community connections & mission that are happening through the Kwinana Salvos.

Thanks for having us!

Shella - Children’s Secretary, WA

Today Shella and Donna attended the Everyday Matters Training at the YouthCARE Australia Head Office. Everyday Matters is a Christian Values Education program implemented in state schools across Western Australia, covering topics such as friendship, resilience, and courage from a faith perspective. The training day was engaging, interactive, and inspiring.

We anticipate the opportunities that will emerge ❤️ ✝️🏫

We value the voice of children across all spheres of life, so we encourage you check out this to give voice to our WA kids.

Children and young people have the right to play, and their views can help shape better play opportunities across Western Australia.
Play Matters Collective and the Commissioner for Children and Young People are gathering input to support the development of the WA Play Strategy.
As part of the consultation, we are inviting children and young people to share how they experience play in their daily lives.
There are two surveys available:
Early childhood and primary school children aged 3 to 12 years:

High school students aged 13 to 18 years:

Schools are encouraged to share the surveys so a broad range of voices from across WA can be heard.

Intergenerational Ministry is about intentionally creating opportunities for different generations to connect, share faith, and grow together. It moves beyond running separate programs to exploring how all ages can meaningfully engage with one another within the life of the corps.

In this webinar, we’ll introduce the key ideas of Intergenerational Ministry, clarify what it is, and just as importantly, what it isn’t, while exploring some simple ways this approach could support your engagement with children and families.

This session is designed to give you a starting point, offering practical insights and space to reflect on what this might look like in your own context.

Did you know, the majority of our Kids & Families spaces here in WA are supported by our incredible volunteers and this week is National Volunteer Week, so we just want to say thank you ❤️

To every volunteer who shows up, gives their time, and cares for others, you are the heart of what happens here. You might not always see the impact, but it’s felt every single day.
