Welcome to The Salvation Army in Ashburton. Thank you for taking the time to visit our page.

The Salvation Army has been in Ashburton since 1884, and has a rich history in the town. If you are searching for a place to belong, where we do real, we do second chances, we do mistakes, we do I’m sorry’s, we do Grace, we do Hugs, we do Love, we do Family—then we would like to invite you to come along and meet us, even just have a coffee & a chat. Let us share with you about why we do what we do & what a difference having a relationship with Jesus has made in our lives.
