Salvation Army Transformation and Outreach Tactics
The Salvation Army outlines its strategy to reach the godless and delinquent through street canvassing and work in saloons, followed by home visitation by slum brigades. It emphasizes aiding the poor with service and practical care, aiming for spiritual transformation rather than mere reform, and presents 1895 countrywide statistics: corps 593, officers 2 071, attendance figures, and souls saved.
