Christianity in Action: The International History of the Salvation Army

Author Bio: Henry Gariepy

Colonel Henry Gariepy (1930–2010) was National Literary Consultant for the Salvation Army in the United States. He retired in 1995 from his full-time officership, having served for fifteen years as national editor-in-chief and literary secretary. He held many other positions within the Army, such as corps officer and youth camp coordinating officer in various locations across America. He continued to be very active after his retirement from the Salvation Army, acting as a speaker, literary consultant, conference speaker, and college teacher at the School for Officer Training in Suffern, New York. He was promoted to Glory and received the Order of the Founder—the highest honor the Salvation Army can grant.
