South Otago Community Missions Centre

Mother and daughter hugging

The Salvation Army is moved by far more than a desire to do good works. Our deeds are driven by Christian faith and devotion.
Our work is fuelled by our love for the Lord, shown by an outworking of compassion and service to the community.
