The Salvation Army was founded to serve both worlds—body and soul—but over time, they can feel disconnected. Our corps can become consumed with maintaining programs, buildings and schedules. At the same time, our social service ministries often carry the load of engaging the community. If William Booth walked into one of our corps today, what would he see?

The Salvation Army is active in more than 130 countries worldwide. With such a wide scope of ministry, there are many service opportunities for both officers and lay personnel interested in serving overseas. Below is a list of available positions in other Salvation Army territories, prepared by the IHQ personnel department.

At the Chilibre Corps in Panama, the youth program nurtures children and teens as they grow in faith, character, and service. Younger kids learn Bible verses, life skills, and simple ways to help others, while older youth take on leadership roles—supporting the younger ones, learning to lead meetings, playing instruments, and strengthening their walk with God.
