when did the salvation army start in australia?
1942
in 1880, the salvation army started its work in three others countries: australia, ireland, and the united states. salvationists set out for the united states in 1880, and when george scott railton and his team arrived they started work in harry hill's variety theatre on 14 march 1880. the first notable convert was ashbarrel jimmie who had so many convictions for drunkenness that the judge sentenced him to attend the salvation army. the corps in new york were founded as a result of jimmys' rehabilitation. it was not always an officer of the salvation army who started the salvation army in a new country; sometimes salvationists emigrated to countries and started operating as "the salvation army" on their own authority. when the first official officers arrived in australia and the united states, they found groups of salvationists already waiting for them and started working with each other. australia was the place where the army's organised social work began on 8 december 1883 with the establishment of a home for ex-convicts. in 1891 booth established a farm colony in hadleigh, essex.
