General Eva Burrows (Rtd.)

General Burrows was presented tonight with the William Wilburforce Award for her excellence in compassion for the marginalised. She's not only a great representative, but her words were spot on. She reached the crowd and encouraged us all to follow God in our service.

God bless General Burrows.

God bless the Salvation Army...in our new day...

1 Thessalonians 5:23 (TLB)
23 May the God of peace himself make you entirely pure and devoted to God; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept strong and blameless until that day when our Lord Jesus Christ comes back again.

Commissioner Knaggs, General Eva was God's "man" then, and continues to be! A global visionary... The General's legacy will continue to be many years in the making. You're fortunate to have her wisdom close at hand !

The webcasts were an absolute inspiration! I have shared them with a wide non-army audience, including past and present MBA students, and pray that they will move them and us all closer to Christ, our call.

Many blessings, Sven
