A patchy start

The Salvation Army “opened fire” in Moree on 5 February 1891, however it didn’t last. Four years later on 21 November 1895 the corps (church) was closed, for reasons unknown, then re-opened in 1898 only to close again in 1903! The Moree Salvation Army opened its doors again in 1913 and has continued its ministry in the town ever since.
