Founded almost 140 years ago by William Booth, The Salvation Army is a religious and social service organization, a branch of the Christian Church dedicated to the battle against sin and despair.

There is an integrated ministry to body, mind and soul. The Army seeks not only to improve the physical environment and provide for material needs, but also to reveal the power of Christ's love. Its social services programs assist children, the elderly, families, and those battling addiction.

The Salvation Army Sierra del Mar division is part of The Western Territory, one of four territories in USA. Commissioner Philip Swyers leads the territory which is divided geographically into 10 divisions, each headed by a divisional commander. Our divisional leader is Major Linda Markiewicz.
