The Whole World Mobilising Commissioners Brian and Rosalie Peddle encourage and mobilise the troops We continue to thank God for his calling on our lives, for his sealing on our covenant and for the Holy Spirit’s courage and boldness to take on the challenge of the roles which is ours today. We are blessed with the many opportunities we are given to travel around the international Salvation Army world, experiencing the many different cultures as we observe the Army at its best, engaging in the mission of Christ. We are humbled by the many engagements that come our way. It is our responsibility to share the good news of transformation, to encourage and mobilise the troops, give our testimony, impact the lives of cadets and officers, meet Salvationists and friends of the Army as we represent International Headquarters.

“At 211 degrees, water is hot. At 212 degrees, it boils. And with boiling water; comes steam. And steam can power a locomotive.” One Degree “Raising the temperature of water by one extra degree means the difference between something that is simply very hot and something that generates enough force to power a machine – a beautiful, uncomplicated metaphor that ideally should feed our every endeavor….It reminds us that seemingly small things can make tremendous differences.” (from the introduction to 212° The Extra Degree by Sam Parker and Mac Anderson) One more degree of effort helps us learn to read. One more try helps us master tying our shoes. One more hour of study helps us pass the exam. One more step of faith helps us meet the challenge God places before us. What is the step of faith that God is asking of you? Perhaps the stories you will read in this newsletter will inspire you to take the next step. Blessings! Linda McNutt, Major Territorial Missionary Focus - President
The Territorial Missionary Focus newsletter is distributed to all TMF members, officers and non-officer personnel serving in international appointments. The Globe and the Mail The Salvation Army 2 Overlea Blvd Toronto ON M4H 1P4
Please note: Because of Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) rules, we cannot give receipts for donations given to the Territorial Missionary Focus since these donations go directly to individuals. The CRA requires that receipted donations have followup and a reporting system. Of course, that isn’t possible when it is a personal donation (even though some use the gifts for appointment purposes).
International Headquarters (cont`d) We appreciate the privilege that is ours to encourage, influence and empower territorial leaders for which we have the responsibility to care, nurture and pastor as they live out their calling and covenant.
Our family continues to inspire, make us laugh, make us cry and make us proud. Our grandchildren bring much joy and conversations with them are always highlight experiences.
We are inspired as we meet people who have encountered Jesus, and have been transformed by his spirit. We are encouraged and excited to meet Salvationists in all parts of our world who have a dynamic faith in Jesus. Their lives are impacting Corps and communities.
Prayer Requests: • Health and Wholeness – physical and spiritual wellbeing • Inspiration and Influence – speaking engagements and leadership of board meetings • Wisdom and Discernment – to make wise, godly decisions regarding international needs • Family and Friends – children, grandchildren, family members and friends who are battling cancer • Projects and Passion – continued passionate leadership and coordination of the international Whole World Mobilising initiative
We are excited about The Whole World Mobilising and have been very encouraged as the Army around the world has moved out of comfortable pews into neighbourhoods and communities sharing the love of Jesus.

International Headquarters Brian and Beverly Slous get down to business The front of the train says “Victoria” but it’s a long way from the place where, only a few short months ago, we called “home.” The big question looms, will we be sitting or standing for the next hour as we wind our way into the core of the city? Commuting is truly an adjustment. A far cry from the five-minute drive from home to office we were used to! And where’s the sun? Days start earlier here, and one understands the British reserve in a new way – they are all catching a nap on the train/bus/tube! It’s amazing to be in a city with so much history, so cosmopolitan. It is even more amazing to be working side by side with Salvationists and officers literally from around the world. The audit department where Bev works is very multicultural: Denmark/Norway, Sweden, USA, Canada, The Philippines, Australia and United Kingdom all represented on the staff list. It is interesting and enriching to compare both secular and Salvationist cultures as we work together here and also on the international field. The Business Administration office where Brian serves as Under Secretary is less diverse but is filled with many dedicated employees who have served the Army well for many years. Only Dutch and Canadian accents here! The view from the desk is spectacular — at 3:00, the dome of St. Paul’s Cathedral and at 10:00, the London Eye. Two markers that are continual reminders of faith and integrity. Bev’s first audit trip was to Uganda. The African culture is wonderful and it was a positive start. An added bonus was standing on the Equator where it crosses the road at Mpigi, Uganda. And yes, water really does turn in opposite directions depending on whether you are in the northern or southern hemisphere. Although no pictures can be taken, it was an incredible thought to know one was driving across the source of the Nile River at Owen Falls Hydro Dam in Jinja. A trip to the Training College (Jinja), beautifully situated overlooking Lake Victoria, reminded us that the beauty around speaks of God’s presence, even when the situation is difficult, and Uganda certainly experiences difficult times financially. Even more, the joyful and willing spirit of giving in the Central Division’s Helping Hand Ingathering meeting was inspiring as the Ugandan Salvationists gave generously from so little.
Brian is immersed in the ‘best of British’ as he assists in managing the affairs of the Business Administration Department. All things business cross his desk, from building security and maintenance to international project and fiscal management. Special project work includes “Self-Denial - Partners in Mission,” the “Officers’ Support Endowment Fund” and “Others Global”, the Army’s fair trade global social enterprise initiative. It is humbling to realize how critical these global initiatives are to the life and well-being of those who minister and serve in some of our most economically depressed regions around the world. Corps-wise we have settled at Bromley Temple, where Bev previously soldiered. Opportunities to be engaged in the ministry of the corps abound: band and songsters, open-air outreach, drop-in centre, community presence. We will certainly find plenty to keep us busy! Prayer Requests: • Wisdom and discernment • Cultural adjustments • Positive impact on co-workers • Family – parents, siblings, kids and grandkids – all adjusting to the distance now between us

Australia Floyd and Tracey Tidd lead through a period of change Now in our fifth year of service in leadership in Australia, we continue to stand in awe of what God is doing and glimpses of what he has in mind yet to do in and through The Salvation Army in Australia. We equally stand amazed as to what God has chosen to do in and through a couple of young kids from a northern Ontario mining town who simply said ‘yes’ to a sense of God’s leading in their lives to serve as Salvation Army officers. We are leading through the transition from a position of two territories in Australia to a single national territory. These are exciting yet challenging days for the Army at all levels in Australia. This current year and the coming year will present the greatest opportunity and challenges of change. Over the course of the coming months we will move to a single national cabinet and finance system and finalising a transition from 15 divisions across both territories to six ‘state-based’ divisions. More significant in mission delivery, however, is the opportunity to revisit and reset, as required, The Salvation Army missionally to partner with God in what we are convinced is the ‘new thing’ (Isaiah 43:18,19) he has chosen to do. We are embarking on a national “Living Our Vision” project that will engage Salvos at every local expression as to accomplishing the new national vision for The Salvation Army in their ministry context. For further details on the “Australia One” journey and considerations for prayer support check out, https://australiaone.info On a personal note, this has been a year of celebration. Kaleena and Anthony introduced us to the phenomenal experience of grandparenting as we welcomed Arlo into the world and our family. We spent a week in

July together in Franccavilla la Mare, Italy, the root of Anthony’s family. We celebrated Chris’s completion of 10 years’ service in the Canadian military including three deployment experiences. Chris and Kalyn have relocated to London for the next chapter in their lives and careers. This year we also celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary. We were in Bali, Indonesia at a Zonal Conference on our anniversary and took the opportunity to take our relationship to new heights with a parasailing experience. (Floyd, who is not fond of heights describes it as the longest 6 minutes of 35 years of marriage). The distance from family, including our mothers, can be a challenge but we are grateful for technology that allows us to call or video-chat regularly. We look forward to being in Canada for Christmas this year. We are grateful for the ongoing evidence of God’s leading and provision both on a leadership level for Australia and also personally. Prayer requests: • Continued wisdom, discernment and courage for the Australia One journey. • Continued health for the demands of leadership • With thanksgiving for past provision and continued prayer for partners who share life journey with our family members in our physical absence.

Papua New Guinea Dr. Marco Lopizic and Mrs. April Barthau at the Koki Clinic It has been an incredible time here in “the land of unexpected.” After a really long process of visas and medical licensing we finally arrived in Papua New Guinea (PNG), on September, 28th, 2016. We are amazed by the welcome we received as the people are grateful to have a doctor and a nurse around. We don’t feel like it is our first appointment overseas as we always were abroad with our parents who serve as Salvation Army Officers, but it’s the first appointment together as adults and as a couple. We have to adapt to being “alone” in a new country. Fortunately, people have gotten to know us and we are making good friends who are always so supportive. We are fortunate to gain insight and clarifications into the PNG culture; the people are patient in explaining their different customs and values. We have been working hard in the management of Koki clinic and Urban Health Center in the National Capital District, Port Moresby. Initially funded by USAID we are working to create a sustainable clinic that receives funding and support from the government. The changes are big as we continue to see HIV positive patients, sexually transmitted infections, gender-based violence (GBV) victims, and implement programs towards seeing outpatients, chronic diseases (such as hypertension and diabetes), child wellness (including immunization and malnutrition treatment), and antenatal care. All this takes up our staffs’ time and they are required to have a vast wealth of knowledge to assess, diagnose, and treat patients across the lifespan.
In addition, we provide several monthly support groups (for HIV and GBV) and discussion groups where we provide education and seek to teach healthy lifestyle habits to both the community and its leaders. We are very proud of our staffs’ professional development over the last year, especially in educating patients and leadership skills in running a clinic with so many programs. There is much to be done yet, but in a year we have seen phenomenal development and patients are satisfied with the cleanliness and timeliness of our services overall. Working at church with the School of Music has been one of the other activities that we enjoy. The kids and youth are highly excited about what they are learning, and are eager to continue learning more. In February we started the program as many expressed an interest in learning music. They started with two months of theory and then progressed to playing brass instruments. We have, on average, 25 participants and were not sure how we would manage with kids from 6 years of age to 30. It has been really encouraging that the senior band players have been helping and learning to teach beginners. This is especially important since we are developing the next generation of musical leaders, and now is their practice as they will be in charge of the School of Music while we are away on our leave. The best part is that so many of these youth have started to attend church regularly and will have an opportunity to do their soldiership classes in the upcoming months. Pray Requests: • For peace in this country • Stop tuberculosis and HIV epidemic • Support for women that suffer GBV • Safety and security in the city. • Church youth
Hong Kong & Macau Command Ian and Wendy Swan celebrate new ministries •
Two new school openings in Hong Kong in two newly established residential areas opening the possibility of ‘holistic’ ministries to a thousand new families.
•
The opening of a special needs educational centre in Macao which will expand the support we provide for the families of Iao Hon District.
•
Two confirmed opportunities to open elderly residential centres with an intentional focus on those struggling with dementia. These centres will also include support programs for their families.
•
The opening of two new family stores which expands our network across Hong Kong providing support with dignity and access to our ‘holistic’ district programs.
•
Two officially registered regional offices in mainland China which creates a formal relationship between The Salvation Army and government departments to support and care for those in need of disaster response, disaster recovery, community development, social services, and educational projects.
•
Partnerships with both National and Provincial Christian Councils in mainland are providing opportunities for collaboration and ministry.
•
The ‘Whole World Mobilising’ campaign has provided an opportunity for our various ministry streams to work together at district level to serve the numerous individuals and families who enter our centres each day.
It was a privilege to attend the Swearing in Ceremony and Celebrations of our new government presided over by President Xi. The events also commemorated 20 years since 1997 and featured the best and most talented of our city. The new Chief Executive, Ms. Carrie Lam, is a friend and supporter of The Salvation Army and we look forward to further collaboration on community projects especially in the areas of the elderly, children, and youth. Our son Jason graduated from the Vancouver Film School on August 18th completing a program in film script writing. So next time you go to the movies be sure to stay to the end to see the credits – you might just see a name you know. Brianna, our daughter, continues her history studies at Peterborough and has worked her way through the long harsh Russian winter and Africa’s colonial history including a course on the role of sugar and world commodities. Wendy and I are doing fine and, yes, we also enjoyed a full Canadian BBQ on July 1st.
Singapore, Malaysia & Myanmar Leonard Heng and Peck-Ee Wong tell of their first year at the Bishan Chinese Corps It has been one year since we landed in Singapore, not really knowing what was ahead of us. But that is the wonder of God’s working in the lives of his people – he takes pleasure in unfolding his plan for us so that we would enjoy the discovery while learning how to depend upon him and draw near to him. And we want to thank the Lord that it has been quite an adventure! Our quarters have never been closer. We live on the fourth floor of the Territorial Headquarters and our commute to the office is a ride on the elevator that takes us to the basement. We also have the privilege of experiencing a communal building which is largely the case for 80% of Singapore’s population. Four other officers and their families live on the same floor as us, while another six officers live on the floor above us. On occasion, we enjoy fellowship in each other’s homes. Ours is a continuous learning curve, both in the Chinese language and culture. This may be hard to understand, but even though we were born and raised in Singapore, we are more western in our thinking and work style. Still, we are thankful to the Lord for the improvement we have made since we started ministry at the corps. We are able to preach and teach more fluently, and we are also getting used to the overwhelming love shown towards us by the seniors with their gifts and concern like parents over their children.

As for the rest of the societal landscape, there have been a lot of changes since we left ten years ago. While we have come to terms with the heat, humidity and frequent thunder storms and rain, it is not easy to cope with the materialism that we see all around us. Life can be hectic with people working long hours to maintain a certain standard of living. For many, religion is, at best, superficial and self-serving. We want to praise God for this open door and for this season of our lives, and we know that we are exactly where he wants us to be for such a time as this. Please pray that we will constantly draw near to the One who is the source and goal in everything we do.

Singapore, Malaysia & Myanmar Mark Hall helps us picture the Singapore Central Corps It has been said, “a picture is worth a 1000 words.” Here are some pictures to tell our story. Colonels Robert and Gwenneth Redhead wrote these words, which we use as a prayer in Singapore: “Lord we pray your church may flourish deeply rooted in your love. Growing upwards - moving outwards...”
This is the live prayer meeting held on Facebook; reaching people throughout the community.
Please pray for us. As we strive to grow upwards and reach outwards.
This bike ministry was launched in July 2017. We are using this popular sport in Singapore as a means of reaching people throughout our area.

Remembering Gerald Dueck
While learning Greek, Jean-Curtis Plante and Rachele Lamont minister to various nationalities
Sergeant Gerald Dueck (September 27, 1949 – July 28, 2017)
Jean-Curtis is the Regional Business & Administration Officer for Greece. Rachele is Anti-Trafficking Coordinator for Greece, Green Light Project, and Volunteer Coordinator, Athens
Gerald Dueck was promoted to Glory at the age of 67. He was library technician at the Catherine Booth Bible College in Winnipeg, when he and his wife Blanca registered with The Salvation Army for overseas service in 1992. He attended the Catherine Booth Bible College for one year and, along with his wife, gained experience in mission while serving for another church in Paraguay. In June 1994 the Duecks were enrolled as senior soldiers.
Prayer Requests: • We are in the process of establishing, developing, and transitioning in the work that we are doing with asylum seekers/applicants, victims of sexual exploitation, and Greek families. There is so much to do and we have a very small team. Please pray we hear exactly what God wants us to do and that we are immediately obedient. Please pray that we make huge impacts in all of these communities for God’s glory and honour. Pray that, like the tribe of Issachar, we would understand the times and know what to do. Also, pray for our very small team of staff and volunteers who so faithfully serve others and are walking through all of this with us. Pray for long-term funding for our work among them as well as with the many Greek families who are still struggling because of the economic crisis in Greece. •
•
We work in Greek, Farsi, Arabic, Albanian, Bulgarian, and French. Pray that God gives us ears to hear and understand these languages. Please also pray that we will learn Greek. Also pray blessing on all of our translators. For our family – for our sons (Josiah and Micaiah) to continue to flourish here. Pray for their safety and protection, but more importantly, for them to grow up being men of God. Please also pray that they will learn Greek and will make good friends here.
On July 23, 1994 the Dueck family arrived in Germany. Gerald and his wife assumed leadership of the home for migrants and ethnic German emigrants in Hanover. Just over a year later they were appointed as Social Sergeants. On May 1, 2001 they became lieutenants and were appointed as leaders of the newly opened Meissen Corps, where he was responsible for important church growth and mission work. As of March 1, 2008 the couple obtained the rank of Field Sergeants. Since October 2012, Sergeant Gerald Dueck and his wife Blanca have been in charge of the “KAR” (Church on Wheels), a corps project that resulted from a joint idea of Sergeant Dueck and a business man from Meissen. Gerald and Blanca toured through Central Saxony with a VW-Crafter van that had been rebuilt to be a small mobile church. In this way he literally brought church to the people. This unusual idea had a lot of attention from the media, even from abroad. Gerald entered retirement on January 1, 2015 but still served at the “KAR” Project with his wife. He was a very reserved, trustworthy and loving person and a reliable friend. He always had an open ear and his heart was with the people. While on vacation, on July 28, 2017, Sergeant Dueck suffered a massive heart attack, and was Promoted to Glory just a couple of hours later. He has completed his course and can behold his Lord and Saviour, whom he served for so many years. Please pray for his wife Blanca, the children Lolita and Matthew and his family in Canada.

Kenya West Morris and Wanda Vincent’s first impressions of their territory Residing in rural Kakamega and serving in Kenya West has broadened our understanding of life in a developing world. Every day we watch locals set up and take down small markets on the side of the road to earn money, selling everything from vegetables to livestock to clothing, candy and trinkets. People buy three eggs instead of a dozen and bring a cup to purchase just enough cooking oil. But they persevere and do their best every day to provide for their families. We have adjusted to the road traffic now, with hundreds of motorcycles (boda-boda’s), tuk-tuks (three wheel minicars), and matatus (small vans) that control the roads as taxis because few people own vehicles. Morris is brave enough to drive but I chose not to. Kenyans are warm and friendly and make us feel welcome. They love to feed guests – just like Newfoundlanders! We enjoy some of the local cuisine while some dishes we graciously consume to show respect. The working language is English but they naturally love to use their native tongue, Swahilli. The people are quite happy when our morning greeting is “Habari asubuhi.” And of course, worship for us now includes lots of upbeat singing and dancing - yes we join them. We love the occasions that connect us with youth and children so we jump at any opportunity for school visits or seeing youth in divisional gatherings. Processes and systems at work are very different. It takes all of us time to appreciate each other’s perspectives and learn from one another. On the streets, we are inspired by the hard work of the people. From watching women balancing firewood or water on their heads to observing the hard
labour of men doing construction on roads or buildings, there is lots of expended physical energy. We are so encouraged by many initiatives taken by the Army in the rural villages to help improve family life and address many social issues. Further efforts to support frontlines include responding to the devastation of drought in the north, seeking support for hundreds of schools, and helping establish a forward path of self-sustainability in a country where poverty is the norm. One of our unique experiences this year was tracking the Kenyan election in August. Much prayer for peace and safety as well as emergency preparedness filled our weeks before the election. At the time of this writing, we are waiting for a ruling from the Supreme Court regarding the democratic process of the election and what further implications this may mean. We continue to nurture a deep faith in God as we seek his direction. We desire only to honour his Spirit in all things. For more detailed stories of our experiences, please see our blog: http://vincentsinkenya.blogspot.ca We are so very grateful for all the support we receive from the Canada & Bermuda Territory. Our Prayer Requests: • Personally: Our health and safety, and the implications of living far from family. • Ministry: A mission-driven Army on every level and spiritual growth for all Salvationists.

We consider it a privilege and a blessing to be entering our sixth year of ministry in the Caribbean Territory. Last year we were working through the details of the burglary and fire at our quarters; then Hurricane Matthew arrived the first week in October. The 265 km winds and heavy rain caused significant damage, especially in Nassau and Freeport. Even though Salvation Army properties were damaged, we responded to help others; two months after the hurricane, electricity was finally restored to Freeport corps. In the midst of the recovery effort the Division held a major event in celebration of 85 years of Salvation Army ministry in the Bahamas. After the difficult months following the hurricane, our officers enjoyed their first retreat in four years. On a personal note, on April 20th we moved back into our fully repaired quarters. We are thankful beyond words for the help of the Canada & Bermuda Territory in repairing the house. After eight months of tiny apartment living, we are so blessed to be back home in our quarters. We look forward to, and pray that, the coming year will be much less ‘eventful’. Prayer Requests: • Candidates for Officership – It has been many years since the Bahamas Division sent a cadet to Training College. Young people are interested but finding it difficult to step out in faith. • The Turks & Caicos Corps - The corps is growing quickly and moving forward with building plans. • Safety of our people – Violent crime is becoming a serious concern, especially in Nassau.
Danielle, Stephen, and family headed back to the Canada and Bermuda Territory after completing a term in the USA. Danielle started the territorial justice department in the USA Western Territory and began implementing a 10-year plan to tackle human trafficking. Her group created a popular initiative for girls called BRAVE that is being used in local congregations. Stephen coordinated a campaign to expand the Army’s impact into ‘Every City.’
