The Salvation Army is an international Christian Church working in over 115 countries worldwide. The International Head of the Salvation Army is the General, who is elected by the Salvation Army Leaders who hold the rank of Full Colonel or Commissioner. The persons holding these officer ranks are fully ordanied and commissioned ministers of religion in the Salvation Army. The election of the General takes place at a meeting of these Leaders at Sunbury court, near London, called the High Council. The high Council prayerfully considers who will be the best person to lead the Army, spiritually and practically over the next five years. Delegates nominate condidates and votes are cast in a variety of processes. Each country, or territory wher the Salvation Army is at work has a territorial commander responsible for the spiritual leadership and direction of the Army in that part of the world. They are accountable to the General. The Salvation Army on a day to day basis is run by its ordained ministers or officers it emplys thousands of people around the world as 'lay staff' to support and run its social welfare programmes and heavily relies on volunteers.
