On May 12, 1886, at 116 E. Douglas, Captain Belle Cunningham (left) led the first Salvation Army meeting in the city of Wichita.

Captain and Lieutenant Kline began the full-time ministry in the Hacker & Jackson Building at 601 East Douglas. Click here for more history. General Information: Heart to God and Hand to Man - a philosophy of The Salvation Army since its inception. Many people see the Army only as a kettle at Christmas time or a place to drop off used clothing. But, at its very heart, The Salvation Army is a Christian church (corps community center). Using a military metaphor, each "corps" is a place of worship that seeks to meet the spiritual needs of a regular community of worshippers and conducts church services for those who choose to attend. Salvation Army officers are pastors of the church. Church members are called soldiers, and those who attend the church are called adherents. The ecumenical symbol of The Salvation Army is the crest. The Salvation Army corps worship centers reflect the vitality of a living God in a needy world. Through 3 worship centers in Wichita, the Army brings to life the Gospel of Jesus Christ. These are action-packed centers where people are living out their faith. They are centers of worship, learning, and service which incorporate a vast range of programs that encompass people of all ages. They are great places where people can enrich their lives and where families can grow together. Our page is a community forum, where we share the work made possible through your support of The Salvation Army and invite people to participate in conversation about community issues. We encourage dialogue and are happy to address any concerns individuals may have regarding our service. To ensure the environment is a safe place for all, we maintain the right to delete posts that contain name calling, clearly false information, profanity, or content which we determine to be inappropriate or unconstructive.
