In Officer Formation Stream (OFS) – staff and cadets alike have commenced a countdown to Commissioning. Our Champions of the Mission 2023-2024 – Colette Albino, Michellie Higginbottom, Samuel Higginbottom and Sameeha Deepesh, are preparing themselves for a sacred event – the making of a covenant which will mark the conclusion of their officer formation journey and their entry into the vocation of officership.
The signing of the covenant marks entry into a deeply spiritual relationship with God for sacred service. To be ordained and commissioned as a Salvation Army Officer, the following covenant is made:
Called by God to proclaim the Gospel of our lord and Saviour Jesus Christ as an officer of The Salvation Army, I bind myself to Him in this solemn Covenant:
To love, trust and serve him supremely all my days,
To live to win souls and make their salvation the first purpose of my life,
To care for the poor, feed the hungry, clothe the naked, love the unloved, and befriend those who have no friends,
To maintain the doctrines and principles of The Salvation Army, and, by God’s grace, to prove myself a worthy officer.
It is our hope and prayer that the journey of formation each of our cadets have taken over the period of their training has prepared them to step with confidence into these significant and sacred moments. During their formation, our cadets have engaged with the three spheres of formation - personal and spiritual, mission and ministry, education and theological - and have demonstrated their commitment to integrating their learning into their ministry and leadership practise.
Covenant Day is the first of our official Commissioning events and will take place in person at Eva Burrows College, Melbourne Campus on Thursday 21st of November.
We ask you to cover our cadets with your prayers over the coming weeks.

While our physical doors are closed our eResources are accessible in the Library catalogue.
