Army Writers & Composers

'A little encouragement goes a long way' was certainly evidenced as Salvationist writers and composers met for an inaugural gathering held at Inala Village this evening. Organized by Major Win Barker (Rtd), it was an opportunity for invited speakers, Commissioner Wesley Harris (author), Major Howard Davies (composer) and Major Laurie Robertson (National Editor-in-chief, WarCry Editor and Literary Secretary), to share some helpful tips and information about authoring and publishing works from their respective areas of expertise.

It was a great opportunity to share with like-minded Christian people and learn more about where The Salvation Army Australia Southern Territory is heading with its current and future goals for publishing and promoting the writing and music composition talents of Salvationists and Christian friends.

I left the evening confident that we certainly have a bright future ahead of us!
