Divisional Headquarters Building Dedication

On Friday, 24 September 2021, The Salvation Army Romania officially opened and dedicated their new building. Another monumental day in The Salvation Army Romania Division this year. This building is the first headquarters office in Romania owned by The Salvation Army, and after years of searching, due to barriers of documents with real estate properties in Romania and finding a good location and value, we finally settled on our new home at Strada Dumitru Zosima 16, Bucharest, Romania.We moved into the building in February 2020 and originally planned to hold the dedication ceremony in April, but the global pandemic stalled all that until now. In the meantime, various small renovation and upgrades inside and outside to make the most out of the property. On the ground floor is a communal kitchen and meeting area, first floor are all the offices for employees and the second floor, the top floor, is an open space for hosting larger meetings and coffee with an apartment. The basement was converted into space for a counseling center, allowing beneficiaries to come in who are in need of emergency supplies and assistance and long-term assistance with obtaining documents and job search assistance, soon a shower and laundry facility will be present also. Outside a few storage areas were added to receive incoming donations and provide adequate storage as in-kind donations continue to grow.On this dedication day, Territorial Leadership and Divisional Leadership were able to physically gather together to dedicate the building for the Lord’s work. We invite you to watch and share with your family, friends and colleagues. And we pray God’s blessing to you and for blessings to use this building to grow and continue serving the people of Romania. Please view and share the Facebook Live recording below:Direct link here: https://www.facebook.com/armatasalvariiromania/videos/280815580535729 And you can view the photos from the day here:https://www.flickr.com/photos/armatasalvariiromania/albums/72157719919677496 We are thankful for all the support and impact made by so many individuals around the world.
