Title: William and Catherine Booth
Description: Refusing to be limited by tradition, William and Catherine Booth set out in 1861 to take the gospel to whomever would listen. Their small independent ministry in the East End of London would ultimately grow into an international army for the Lord. Using street meetings, parades, marching bands, and posters, the Booths and their followers attracted people who felt unwelcomed by traditional churches. Eventually called the Salvation Army, William and Catherine's ministry touched the poor, the destitute, and the addicted with the love of Christ. - Back cover.
