The Salvation Army New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa Territory is divided up into geographical areas called divisions and regions. Most divisions/regions have a Youth Department headed up by Divisional/Regional Youth Secretaries.
As well as local corps (church) events, each division/region also runs events throughout the year. Click your area below for details about your Divisional/Regional Youth Secretary and how to find out more about what's happening for youth near you.
The Salvation Army New Zealand, Fiji, Tonga and Samoa Territory is made up of five divisions and two regions.
A 'division' refers to the group of corps (churches) and centres within a geographical area and simply helps organise the bigger structure.
Our five divisions are: Northern (upper North Island), Midland (middle North Island), Central (lower North Island), Southern (South Island) and Fiji (all Fiji islands). Tonga and Samoa are included as 'regions', as they are slightly smaller.
Each division has an officer who oversees all the youth work in that area. These cats are called Divisional Youth Secetaries and they do a whole heap of great work. We also have a Territorial Youth Secretary and team who oversee the big picture stuff relating to territorial youth ministry.
