Americans commenting in this game really need to stop trying to "correct" British spelling. They've been doing it longer and more countries spell it their way than ours.

I made glass for Ford Motor Company in the glass division for 21 years, was a class A machinist for DW Industries for 7 years and I worked for the Salvation Army as a Social Service Worker for 6 years. In that order. I have to say that the most gratifying and rewarding time in my life was when I was working to help others who weren't as fortunate as I at the Salvation Army! Thank you Jesus for the wonderful life!!

Player Elf Counsel,
My grandparents were Salvation Army officer missionaries in Peking ( now Beijing) China from 1921-1927. My mom was a new baby when they left Canada for China and her younger sister was born in Peking. All my aunts and uncles on mom’s side of the family were officers in SA. A rich history for sure!

The Salvation Army is apparently trying to move away from its anti-gay stance which attracted a lot of criticism in the past.

Player nawa,
That’s why I never donate to the Red Cross.
Apparently they have nothing that’s really “free”.

Jesus needs sunbeams to shine for Him each day.

Montana Lady, but I do prefer using "z" rather than "s" in most words ending in "ize"Or "ise.

Never forget the time that the Salvation Army refused to let a trans woman, who was a Marine veteran, have shelter because she was trans. She died on the steps of the Capitol in Austin. #JusticeforJennifer

cookies, and a cup of coffee for free in 1942 on their way to camp in WW2 at a bus station. Red Cross wanted $00.25 for less. I don't give to them. that re

maggiemylove, translations of the Bible may not be what you like, but it's not "outdated". That's a ridiculous concept.

Mountain Crone, they do not discriminate against anyone, unless you think that not applauding their lifestyle is discrimination.
