AFRICAN AMERICANS–Advocates of Salvation – February WAR CRY

“Black Salvationists have been vital in the spiritual development of The Salvation Army from its inception in the United States. Black Salvation Army soldiers lived the Army’s “Blood & Fire” motto as they struggled at times to hold fragile communities together, sometimes amid the spilling of actual blood and in the heat of real fire.” — Warren Maye – “Soldiers of Uncommon Valor”
