Celebrate the presence, power and promise of children and young people within The Salvation Army!

Every year The Salvation Army celebrates the International Day of Children and Young People on the last Sunday of April (27 April, 2025).

The day provides an opportunity to create space for children and young people to participate, co-create and co-lead in every aspect of our mission. It is about giving them a voice and a platform.

We believe that, although children are developing, they are, at the same time, whole and complete human beings. God calls each individual into a genuine relationship and a real vocation, not a potential vocation somewhere in the future.

This means we regard children and young people as full, active members of the Body of Christ, equally important as anyone else.

IHQ resources include:

• Prayer resources
• Devotions
• Social media tiles
• Song suggestions

NB: This day can be celebrated on any Sunday however, corps are encouraged to celebrate on 27 April, as there is strength in the whole Army praying and celebrating around this subject at the same time.
