This year marks the 100th anniversary of the end to ‘the war to end all wars’, a conflict that brought unimaginable death tolls and threatened to tear apart The Salvation Army, which was less than 50 years old when war broke out in 1914.
To all the peoples – peace! Peace that shall build a glad new world
In February 1917, General Bramwell Booth wrote: ‘For us of The Salvation Army the present fratricidal war is an inscrutable agony. Nevertheless it may be that, when much that now fills with horror a world of woe has passed away for ever, gracious deeds and experiences … may still remain a precious and enduring heritage to all who believe in the grace of God and the power of Love.’
And make for life’s increase. O living Christ, who still Dost all our burdens share, Come now and dwell within the hearts of all men everywhere.
From the foreword to Souls in Khaki, Being a Personal Investigation into Spiritual Experiences and Sources of Heroism Among the Lads in the Firing Line by Arthur Edward Copping
