Summary

[Taken from the Church Army website]
The Church Army is an Anglican religious organisation founded by Wilson Carlile in 1882, and established in Australia, in Perth, in 1932.

The Church Army movement is evangelical, and trains preachers to spread the word of the Gospels. It trains both women and men, and has a long-running programme of training Aboriginal evangelists.

The Church Army was supported by the Anglican Diocese of Newcastle, which gave them a house in 1933. It ran Morpeth Home for Children, St Elizabeth's Girls Home and St Christopher's Home for Little Children.
