The Salvation Army is a Bible-believing Christian church in Oshawa. We seek to be inclusive, loving, and compassionate, giving hope to hurting and needy people struggling in a world that is sometimes unloving, apathetic, and unjust.

Give thanks to the God of heaven. His love endures forever.

God loves with a great love the man whose heart is bursting with a passion for the impossible.

I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people,

If we are to better the future we must disturb the present.
