General Lyndon Buckingham and Commissioner Buckingham were ordained and commissioned in 1990 as officers of the New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa Territory. As well as appointments at home, they have also served in various Salvation Army territories, and assumed their current responsibilities as General and World President of Women's Ministries at International Headquarters on 3 August 2023.

In each of their appointments the Buckinghams have displayed a desire to see the great news of the gospel shared.

Bronwyn is inspired by the belief that God has a new truth to reveal to her daily and compelled by the promise in Philippians 1:6 (NIV) that he is continuing to fulfill his good work within her. She desires to be the woman God is calling her to be and is passionate to be part of an Army where the next generation will choose to embrace their leadership calling.

Lyndon is passionate about finding ways for The Salvation Army to be more effective in fulfilling its mission. He is determined to be faithful to the covenants he has made and is motivated by verses from Paul's letter to the Colossians: 'Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men' (Colossians 3:23 NIV 1984).

 The Buckinghams are blessed to be parents and grandparents. They are continually encouraged and challenged by the desire of their adult children to serve God in their generation.
