EDITORS COMMENTS
The Salvation Army Citadel in Aberdeen, Scotland, stands proudly against the backdrop of a Scottish sky, its imposing structure a testament to the enduring presence of this religious and social welfare organization in the community. The Citadel, a term used to describe the headquarters of The Salvation Army, is a unique blend of military and religious architecture, reflecting the organization's origins as a volunteer army. In the foreground of this circa 1900s photograph, a statue of George, the 5th Duke of Gordon (1770-1836) adds an air of historical significance to the scene. The Duke, a prominent figure in Aberdeen's past, is depicted in military uniform, his stern gaze fixed ahead. The Citadel's towering spire reaches for the heavens, a symbol of hope and salvation for the people of Aberdeen. The Salvation Army, founded in 1865, has a long and rich history in Scotland, with the first Salvation Army corps established in Glasgow in 1871. The organization's mission is to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and to meet human needs in His name without discrimination. The Citadel in Aberdeen has been a hub of this mission for over a century, providing shelter, food, and support to those in need. This photograph captures the essence of the Citadel as a beacon of hope and strength in the community, its imposing structure a reminder of the enduring power of faith and compassion.
