High Point Community Church is a Christian community dedicated to loving the Lord our God with all our hearts, souls and minds, and to loving our neighbours as ourselves.
History
The Salvation Army is an international Christian organization whose work began in London, England in 1865 when William Booth, a minister, abandoned the conventional concept of a church and a pulpit and took his message of hope to the poor, the homeless, the hungry and the destitute. By 1867 The Salvation Army had developed into a ministry offering basic schooling, reading rooms, penny banks, soup kitchens and relief aid to the destitute.
The Salvation Army started its work in Canada in 1882 and quickly began giving hope to those in need throughout the country. We gladly serve over 1.85 million people each year in 400+ communities in Canada.
