Others

OTHERS.  This was the entire contents of a Christmas message sent by telegram in the very early 1900s by our founder, General William Booth.  The cost to send a telegram wasn't easy for Booth to afford so his message of encouragement to his officers around the world had to be short.  An entire message had to be condensed to a single word.  This word had to encourage, inspire and give direction.  Not an easy task for a lonely word.  Yet the task was accomplished.

OTHERS became the focus.
OTHERS became the reason.
OTHERS became the purpose.
