Throughout the world, The Salvation Army maintains a commitment to giving our hearts to God and our hands to mankind .  We want to live out the gospel message.  In Tanzania we are driven by a desire to make a difference in people’s lives. ...

Our Women’s Ministry Department is one of the strongest ministries in our organization.  Thousands of women come together each week in our corps (churches) throughout the country to learn, worship, fellowship and serve.  Programmes such as training in family health, livelihoods and microcredit are some of the projects that are run through the Women’s Ministries Department. Our ministries address young women as well as adults.  Through a broad range of programmes we strive to find a place of learning and service for every age group.  And our prayer is that through these ministries, young women and their mothers will find confidence and skills to make a greater contribution to their families and their communities.
