January 26th, 2007 - Mennonite-Salvation Army Partnership
At St. Jamestown 614:
“If we cannot prevail with men for God, then we will, at least, prevail with God for men,” said 19th-century British preacher Charles Spurgeon before a congregation of nearly 25,000 at London’s Crystal Palace. He routinely drew 5,000 weekly to his Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit including Prime Minister Gladstone, the royal family, Florence Nightingale, even U.S. General James Garfield (later President).
It’s little wonder Tara Bishop, associate pastor at Toronto’s St. Jamestown’s 614 project, quotes his work at the foot of all her correspondence.
614 St. Jamestown, like its sister project in nearby Regent Park, was established on the concept of Isaiah 61:4—a message of rebuild, restore, renew—a philosophy Tara Bishop shares with her senior pastor, The Salvation Army’s Kevin Moore. Bishop and Moore have come together in this unique approach to inner-city ministry from very different backgrounds. Bishop represents the Mennonite Brethren (MB) while Moore represents The Salvation Army.

May 23rd, 2006 - Embracing multiculturalism in our congregations
Major Donna Miller has started a series addressing ways congregations can meet the needs of a multi-cultural society.
In Canadian cities, some of which are among the most multicultural in the world, the Army has respectfully striven to meet the spiritual and language needs of newcomers by establishing culturally specific corps and encouraging multicultural corps.
How can a historically monocultural corps become more welcoming to people of various cultures?

May 5th, 2006 - How To Build Community
written by the Syracuse Cultural Workers
Turn off your TV
Leave your house
Know your neighbours
Look up when you are walking
Greet people
Sit on your stoop
Plant flowers
Use your library
Play together
Buy from local merchants
Share what you have
Help a lost dog
Take children to the park
Garden together
Support neighbourhood schools
Fix it even if you didn’t break it
Have pot lucks
Honour elders
Pick up litter
Read stories aloud
Dance in the street
Talk to the mail carrier
Listen to the birds
Put up a swing
Help carry something heavy
Barter for your goods
Start a tradition
Ask a question
Hire young people for odd jobs
Organise a block party
Bake extra and share
Ask for help when you need it
Open your shades
Sing together
Share you skills
Take back the night
Turn up your music
Turn down the music
Listen before you react to anger
Mediate a conflict
Seek to understand
Learn from new and uncomfortable angles
Know that no one is silent
Though many are not heard
Work to change this
