Saturday, the third day of the World Youth Convention, was dominated by social justice and evangelism. The addresses in the morning delivered by Commissioner Helen Clifton (World President of Women's Ministries) and Commissioner Christine MacMillan (Director, International Social Justice Commission) graphically brought home the fact that sadly we live in a fallen world. However, both commissioners also boldly stated that all is not lost as hope and redemption are at hand.
In her terrifying, yet full of hope, 'Wake Up' report on human trafficking in the sex-slave trade Commissioner Clifton initially painted a picture of depravity and desperation but, then, she joyfully announced details of life-bringing salvation work being carried out by The Salvation Army around the world.
She called on all delegates and the Army worldwide to join the battle against this evil practice and especially to be involved in the four key areas of prevention, prosecution, protection and prayer.
The commissioner reminded the World Youth Convention delegates that the General has called all Salvationists to pray, on 26 September, for victims of the sex-slave trade.
Commissioner MacMillan (via DVD on the huge screen in the Aula Magna auditorium) emphatically stated that 'the greatest challenge the world is facing is the growing chasm between the rich and the poor.
'Today 1,125 billionaires hold more wealth than half of the world population and the poorest 40 per cent of the world population only accounts for five per cent global income while the richest 20 per cent accounts for 75 per cent of the world's income.'
The commissioner said that while this is the major issue for The Salvation Army International Social Justice Commission (ISJC) it is also wrestling with many other issues of inequality.
Commissioner MacMillan said that the team is researching the issues at depth and is doing all it can to advocate on behalf of the poor and all others victimised and discriminated against but that it alone cannot do all the work – 'we all need to be involved in some way'.
'Our journey of faith needs to be disturbed by the injustices in the world. If it isn't, then our hearts are either numb or hardened and we need God to renew our sensitivity,' the commissioner declared.
Fired up to do all they can to heal a hurting world the World Youth Convention delegates headed off-campus to Kungstragarden (The King's Garden) a beautiful park in the city area of Stockholm for eight-and-a-half hours of praise and outreach.
This energy-packed event could be described as a marathon running race performed at sprint race speed, such was the Holy Spirit-inspired level of energy.
Around 4,000 people were in the park enjoying a slightly overcast afternoon and all them were affected by the infectious enthusiasm of the performers and delegates.
The message of Jesus Christ was shared with others individually and corporately by General Shaw Clifton when he explained to the crowd the meaning behind the colours of The Salvation Army flag – the blood of Christ, the fire of the Holy Spirit and the purity of God.
This was new information for the non-Salvationists of Sweden who live in one of the most secularised countries in the world, with less than one per cent of the population attending church.
A public time of prayer for Sweden followed an inspiring concert by Samuel Ljungblahd, a Salvationists who is one of Sweden's top Christian singers. This was an excellent witness to the love and joy of God.
Another major event on Saturday was the staging at Stockholm Temple Corps of the musical Brengle: My Life's Ambition. The hall was filled to capacity for both performances.
A surprise miracle moment of the day was the arrival the Sri Lankan delegation that had overcome last minute passport problems that delayed them for two days.
The arrival of the Sri Lankan delegation during Commissioner Helen Clifton's (World President of Women's Ministries) address on Saturday morning was a miraculous moment for the World Youth Convention in Stockholm, Sweden.
Within moments of the Sri Lankans entering the Aula Magna auditorium, two days after the convention had commenced, a tremendously noisy welcome greeted them.
Just a few days earlier, all packed and waiting at The Salvation Army territorial headquarters in Colombo, the delegates were greatly disappointed when they were told their passports were lost. On top of this news the next day's flight was completely booked out so they all had to return to their homes.
But within a couple of days they were recalled to the airport and on their way to Stockholm. Miracles still happen.
And the same is true concerning what Commissioner Clifton was speaking about – human trafficking. Many miracles are happening as The Salvation Army is becoming more involved in rescuing people from this modern-day form of slavery.
Commissioner Clifton titled her message 'A Wake Up Call' and that's exactly what she gave the convention delegates as she shared frightening stories and statistics with them.
The Salvation Army has been involved in the fight against human trafficking since its beginnings 145 years ago but in recent years Commissioner Clifton has been responsible for bringing it to the top of the Army's Social Justice agenda. At this point in time The Salvation Army has people ministering in the fight against human trafficking in many countries but the commissioner said there is still much to do.
'We need to be wiser and better trained, but without losing the deep passion for those who have lost their innocence and succumbed to what is a sad and lonely life. The work involves prevention, prosecution, protection and prayer,' said Commissioner Clifton.
She reminded the convention that this evil is extremely complex to combat because it is intertwined with a huge variety of industries including pornography and sex clubs.
She urged all World Youth Convention delegates to join the fight and reminded them that the General has called all Salvationists to pray, on 26 September, for the victims of the sex-slave trade.
Commissioner Clifton said part of the wake up call the world needs is for people everywhere to do all they can to care for others. She suggested the following extract from a previous version of the Articles of War for Salvation Army soldiers provides an excellent guideline in this regard:
The social justice theme continued in the following session when Commissioner Christine MacMillan (Director, International Social Justice Commission) addressed the convention via DVD.
She said that 'the greatest challenge the world is facing is the growing chasm between the rich and the poor. Today 1,125 billionaires hold more wealth than half of the world population and the poorest 40 per cent of the world population only accounts for five per cent of global income, while the richest 20 per cent accounts for 75 per cent of the world's income.'
The commissioner said that The Salvation Army International Social Justice Commission (ISJC) is wrestling with many such inequalities and the team is researching issues in depth.
She forthrightly proclaimed that these are desperate times and many countries have terribly oppressive laws that punish women victims instead of the men perpetrating evil.
'Our journey of faith needs to be disturbed by all these injustices in the world. If it isn't then our hearts are either numb or hardened and we need God to renew our sensitivity,' the commissioner declared.
She said the potential of 1,000 young people to reach into the world and make a positive difference is phenomenal. Having encouraged the delegates to be involved in social justice issues the commissioner reminded them that they needed to be aware it can be a tough road to travel.
'You won't be popular when you start to tackle social justice issues but it is a vital work because we need to influence the world by teaching everyone how to share so they can enter into loving relationships, ' she added.
Following Commissioner MacMillan's message Lieut-Colonel Geanette Seymour (assistant director, ISJC) took to the platform and, in summing up the ISJC message she said: 'We have come from the east and the west to this convention but we need to go beyond the talk, there is a need to love, understand and to share.'
God poured out his grace and blessing in overwhelming abundance on the fourth and final day of The Salvation Army World Youth Convention in Stockholm on 18 July. Amazingly, the level of celebration and commitment significantly surpassed the extremely high levels expressed during the previous three days.
Hundreds of life-changing decisions were made throughout this day of complementary contrasts, when praise, personal reflection, practical teaching and prayer combined to produce remarkable responsiveness to God.
On Sunday night more than 200 delegates purposefully made their way to the stage and mercy seat in response to General Shaw Clifton's clear, quiet calls concerning officership.
Initially around 120 people joined the General on the platform when he asked for everyone to come forward who had already formally commenced their application for officership in The Salvation Army.
At least 80 more delegates moved to the stage when the General requested anyone else who now had a compulsion from God to apply for officership to join those already standing with him. Another two people went when the General asked, 'Is there anyone who wants a life of hardship, challenge and risk? Then officership is for you!'
A further approximately 60 people, who needed more time to prayerfully consider God's officership call on their life, stood as the General prayed for them to receive clarification from God on this important matter.
In addition to the more than 260 people already standing, 60-70 went forward when the General opened up the mercy seat for people to come who had matters other than officership to bring to God.
And when the crowded mercy seat was clear General Clifton made one final appeal. This appeal was to those who were already officers. He suggested they come to be renewed by God, to ask him to make their appointments fruitful, to give them courage and to ask for added purity, power, health, strength and wisdom for every day. More than 100 officers quietly and thoughtfully went and knelt.
This immensely moving mercy seat response came after all the commissioners present at the convention had given everyone in the auditorium a covenant card to sign. This was a sacred time as delegates prayed quietly before signing the covenant.
Earlier in the meeting there was a much louder worship atmosphere involving uplifting, exhilarating music and testimonies. A significant commemoration moment was the celebration of Salvation Army ministry in the 10 countries where Army ministry has commenced during the past four years.
In a wide-ranging, incisive message General Clifton encouraged the delegates to 'stay awake and alert to see what God will do beyond our wildest imaginings'.
Using Luke 9 he reminded those listening that Jesus sent the 12 disciples out specifically for two reasons: to win people into God's Kingdom and to help those in need.
From Luke 10 the General pointed out that while sending a further 72 others out to do pioneering work Jesus remarked that the labourers were few. General Clifton said that it is still the same today. 'We don't have enough people in our training colleges. For many years the number of cadets worldwide has stayed steady at about 1,200 despite many powerful factors that could have worked against us. We praise God for this blessing, but it is still not enough,' he stressed.
He then asked the delegates, 'What are you going to be? What are you going to do with your life? You can choose to serve self or to follow Jesus. If you choose self your life will gradually fall apart because that's how the devil works. But if you choose God's way they ring the bells in Heaven and you always have the resources of Heaven to call upon.'
General Clifton warned all present that the devil will try to pull them down as they leave the World Youth Convention. He urged them not to fall for the temptations of Satan. Instead, he said, 'give yourself to God, be humble, stay teachable, stay close to God, hide in Christ and be obedient to Jesus in whatever he tells you to do'.
He also encouraged them to be true to the doctrines of The Salvation Army, to wear Salvation Army uniform and to offer a helping, compassionate hand to all in need.
'We know there is sin but we also know there is a Saviour who brings purity and forgiveness,' said the General.
The morning holiness meeting, led by the Chief of the Staff, Commissioner Barry Swanson, included an excerpt from a musical on the life of Commissioner Samuel Logan Brengle, testimonies from delegates, Commissioner Sue Swanson talking via live link to Salvationists in South Africa and a DVD expressing the Korea Territory's outreach vision.
In his thought-provoking message the General plainly outlined from Mark 12 how it is important for everyone to surrender their intellect to God and to develop it as much as possible, all the while using it in the service of God.
He said our mind also needs to be crucified to self so that we have the same attitude as the mind of Jesus. He added that it is vital that our surrendered, crucified mind is combined with a childlike heart (Luke 18).
To illustrate the characteristics of a childlike heart General Clifton shared personally about his relationship with his five grandchildren and said that even though they each have different personalities he loves them all.
He said this is how God loves us and that, as children approach their parents and grandparents with unreserved love, in the same way we can come to God.
Following the General's message scores of people knelt at places of prayer at the foot of the stage, on the stage and in the body of the hall.
The Sunday afternoon praise meeting was full of colourful singing and dancing as the African delegates were centre stage. One country after another, the African delegates inspiringly worshipped God.
Commissioner Helen Clifton brought an overview regarding advances the Army is making throughout the world and said there is still much to be done. She asked the delegates to pray for the Army to keep spreading in cities and countries.
The glorious, exuberant worship of the Praise Meeting followed territorial discussion 'Buzz' groups and an hour of complete silence. During this time delegates, in quietness, individually worked through a prayer booklet prepared by General Clifton. Delegates later testified to the powerful impact of this quiet time as God spoke into their lives.
The day's activities commenced with a combined prayer meeting led by Captain Matt Clifton (UK Territory with the Republic of Ireland) and concluded with the retiring of the flags after a brilliant indoor finale featuring 'Send the Fire' combined with 'O Boundless Salvation', a massed choir, African drums and Holy Spirit-fuelled joy.
With mixed emotions the delegates gathered outside the Aula Magna building at around 11pm. While a brass band played, the flags came down and The Salvation Army World Youth Convention of 2010 was officially brought to a close.
However, according to the delegates, while the event may be concluded the work of God in and through them is not.
Comments from them include:
'I've learned so much.' 'God has shown me what I have to do next.' 'I've made so many friends from all over the world.' 'I'm going back home to share as much as I can.'
'The freedom in worship here is what we need at my corps.' 'I haven't worn uniform much but I wore it here and it was okay. Seeing all the other countries wear it has helped me.' 'The teaching was so helpful.' 'Loved the Buzz groups.'
'Everyone was so friendly.' 'The volunteers were awesome, especially the group hosts – nothing was too much trouble.' 'I want to organise a youth conference for our country.' 'I loved all the singing at the train stations and on the trains.'
'It was great to have so many Salvationists in the park on Saturday.' 'It was brilliant having so many countries come together.' 'I had a fantastic time.' 'God did massive things.' 'In 2050 I'll be the General and I'll be organising another one.'

The social justice theme continued in the following session when Commissioner Christine MacMillan (Director, International Social Justice Commission) addressed the convention via DVD.
She said that 'the greatest challenge the world is facing is the growing chasm between the rich and the poor.
