Thank you for taking the time to do so.<BR><BR>The Salvation Army in Harpenden, situated in the town centre, exists to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ, by word and deed, in a thriving, affluent Hertfordshire town (population 37,000). Harpenden is situated close to London, Luton and St. Albans, and The Salvation Army is a full and active member of Churches Together in Harpenden.<BR><BR><IMG SRC="/art/bullets/grn_ball.gif"> Although membership rolls currently stand at the relatively small total of 69, one of the great strengths of Harpenden Corps is the age-range of its congregation. We also like to feel we offer a warm welcome to friends and visitors. Babies and toddlers are catered for within the weekly programme, teenagers meet monthly to chill out with pizza and Coke, there are a number of young adults present, and the Over Sixties Club caters for the elderly.<BR><BR><IMG SRC="/art/bullets/grn_ball.gif"> Food features prominently on the list of priorities <IMG SRC="/art/bullets/smiley.gif">, with a Curry Club once a month (at least!) for the younger men (meeting at The Harpenden Tandoori Restaurant), and The Four M's Club (Men's Monthly Monday Meeting) for those aged 50+ who prefer fish & chips to curry! The Ladies' Meeting on Thursday afternoon provides an opportunity for ladies to meet together.<BR><BR><IMG SRC="/art/sound_btn.gif"> The musical sections of The Salvation Army in Harpenden maintain a high standard. The band, under the leadership of Bandmaster Nigel Hills, assists with worship and congregational singing, the Songster Brigade (choir), under the leadership of Songster Leader Roland Hills, contributes a great deal to the meetings, and the Singing Company (junior choir), under the leadership of Pauline Emeny, never fails to bring a worthwhile contribution to Sunday morning worship.<BR><BR><IMG SRC="/art/bullets/grn_ball.gif">Meetings at Harpenden Corps are informal, relaxed, and open to all. A creche operates on Sunday mornings (for the under 5's), and the meetings last from 10.15am until 11.30am. Meetings are followed by tea & coffee, and this is followed by Adult Sunday School, an informal Bible Study/Discussion Group. After Adult Sunday School, the band usually takes to the streets of Harpenden for open-air evangelism, or to visit the local hospital.<BR><BR><IMG SRC="/art/bullets/grn_ball.gif"> In addition to these activities, some public houses are visited on Friday evenings, where The War Cry and Kid's Alive (the Army's gospel papers) are sold. A Saturday coffee morning also features as a means of contacting and befriending local people.<BR><BR><IMG SRC="/art/other/handicap.gif"> Plans are currently underway to raise money to improve facilities for disabled people, at our hall in Leyton Road. These plans are at a very early stage just now, but we hope to raise something in the region of Ł50,000.00 to carry out essential renovations, improving access, etc. <br><br><hr><h3> How to find us....</h3> <BR><BR>The Salvation Army hall in Harpenden is situated in Leyton Road, just near to Leyton Green.
