Corps Officers

Captains Jeff and Sheena Marquis.

Captain Jeff Marquis was born in Lincoln, Nebraska, to Salvation Army officers. His parents eventually settled in the suburbs of Chicago, where Jeff spent his adolescent years growing in his gift and love for music and the arts. He attended Asbury College, now Asbury University, in Wilmore, KY, where he studied and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Music. Still involved with The Salvation Army church, Jeff began teaching music with the Army in both Texas and Florida. While in Texas, Jeff met his now wife and partner in ministry, Sheena.

Captain Sheena Marquis, born and raised in Dallas, TX, also grew up in the ministry of The Salvation Army. As a young girl, she and her family were assisted by The Salvation Army’s transitional housing center in Arlington, TX. Upon graduating from high school, Sheena served on a summer missions team to Kenya with The Salvation Army that nurtured her love for service. She received her Bachelor’s of Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington, and later a Master of Social Work from the University of South Florida in Tampa.

In 2013, Jeff and Sheena accepted God’s call to deeper service as officers in The Salvation Army. Prior to coming to Stuart, they served as Corps Officers for three years in Clay County near Jacksonville. They have a young son, Caedmon.

The Salvation Army Responses to Coronavirus COVID-19

As the coronavirus COVID-19 has evolved into a pandemic, we are monitoring the situation daily. Safety is of utmost priority, so we have ramped up efforts to slow the spread of this virus among our employees, volunteers, and the homeless and other vulnerable people we serve.

In the United States, one in six people live in poverty, and more than 550,000 are counted as homeless. These populations severely lack access to proper care, hygiene, updated information, and medical resources, which makes them more susceptible to the virus. This is where we come in. This is who we serve.

We are developing new hygiene and cleaning protocols to help keep safe our residents and others who depend on The Salvation Army’s programs and services to survive. In addition, all staff, volunteers, and program participants have been sent hygiene and prevention information as recommended by the CDC.

We also anticipate a significant increase in need of emergency assistance for low-wage earners facing layoffs due to COVID-19. The support we provide – rent/mortgage, utility, and food assistance, among others – will become more urgent as the situation evolves.

Meanwhile, we will continue to work in close partnership with area government and health experts to prepare and respond to meet specific community needs. We will continue to update this page as developments warrant.

We need support from our communities to continue to meet the daily needs of these vulnerable populations. Your donations will continue to help us respond to the situation.

The Salvation Army is offering support through our emotional and spiritual care hotline. We understand that this time of social distancing can be difficult and worrying for many. If you need someone to talk to, call 844-458-HOPE (4673). We are here for you.

You’re making a difference

Each of our clients has a unique and inspirational story and we're thrilled to share them. Today we are going to share the story of Tiffany.

Tiffany is a hard-working, independent mother who has been providing for herself and her family since her ex-husband left her when she was 4 months pregnant with 2 kids.

“I found myself alone with no friends and family to help. I was behind on my rent and facing food insecurity.” That's when she found The Salvation Army. The Salvation Army helped Tiffany with financial support in order to keep a roof over her family's heads, utility support, food from our pantry, and other wrap-around services.

“As a single mother my biggest concern was providing stability for my family and the Salvation Army is the biggest part of my support system, hands down.”

Nowadays the Salvation Army is working with Tiffany's family through its Pathway of Hope program, which provides individualized services to families with children who desire to take action to break the cycle of crisis.

“I get really emotional when I think about it because the Salvation Army has helped me so much.” So if you are reading this I want to thank you. Because of your donation I was able to keep a roof over my family's head and food in our house.”

At the end of the day, it’s not about how great our own works might be. It’s about the difference we were able to make for everyone we meet, with every opportunity we are given and with every gift you entrust us with.

The Salvation Army’s Compassion House program in Martin County goes above and beyond to help local families in need.

Durnie, a single mom, was homeless and desperate when she contacted the Compassion House for help. "I did not have any support before coming to the Salvation Army," she says. She is now living in the shelter with her son and daughter, working two jobs and saving her money to move into a stable home of their own.

Durnie is receiving one-on-one guidance and support from the Compassion House staff and is optimistic about her family's future."I am extremely grateful for all the services they are providing to me and my kids during our time here.”

Every family has unique needs. And in each of those families, The Salvation Army strives to create and implement solutions tailored to those specific needs. That dollar that you gave yesterday helps us today to be able to take care of Durnie's family and many others. Thank you for making a difference in countless lives in our community.

Pathway of Hope

January 29th at 10 AM - 1 PM at The Salvation Army Stuart Family Store. (5)

PATHWAY OF HOPE

Meeting your family’s needs while building a better life can be hard. The Salvation Army helps navigate challenges on the path to a brighter future.

What Is Pathway of Hope?

The Pathway of Hope initiative is an approach launched by The Salvation Army in 2011 to provide targeted services to families with a desire to take action to break the generational cycle of crisis and enable a path out of poverty. It is rooted in a case management approach, focusing on client needs through a strength-based lens.

Targeting families with children came from the desire to have an intergenerational impact on poverty. By positively influencing the lives of parents, the Salvation Army can create better living conditions for children. Influencing children in their development years is crucial, as studies show that children who spend more than half of their life in poverty are 32 times more likely to be in poverty as an adult.

The Pathway of Hope Approach Includes:

What Does the Initiative Involve?

Caring for your family’s needs, while building a strong future can be challenging in today’s economic times. The Salvation Army team will offer support, guidance and assistance as we walk alongside you on your family’s journey:

Mapping it out
Meet with a caseworker to develop your personalized action plan.

Tracking Progress
Chart your progress and see your success with your dedicated case worker on a regular basis.

Passing Milestones
See where you are at six months and decide what’s next on your journey.

Looking ahead
Celebrate your successes. Adjust any further goals. Encourage others.

SUPPORT PATHWAY OF HOPE BY MAKING A TAX-DEDUCTIBLE DONATION TODAY.

Donating to Pathway of Hope and The Salvation Army ensures that our programming can continue to help people in need in Martin, Saint Lucie, and Okeechobee counties.

Compassion House

Compassion House

The Salvation Army's transitional shelter for homeless women and children.

About us

Often individuals and families struggling with homelessness simply need a short-term solution to help them get back on their feet again. We offer safe, secure shelter, meals, clothing and counseling while residents work to once again become self-sufficient.

Our Clients

Compassion House is our shelter for homeless women and women with children in Martin County.

facility

We have 8 bedrooms, each with its own a private bathroom. Moreover, we have a children’s playroom and playground, laundry room, computer workspace and dining area. The shelter is fully staffed to provide security and assist the residents as needed.

no charge

We do not charge ANY fees. We are funded through grants, private donations, The United Way of Martin County, local foundations and profits from The Salvation Army Family Store.

empowerment

Residents meet with case managers weekly to tailor goals to overcome their individual barriers to housing and stability and are introduced to local resources to meet those goals. Depending on the individual needs of the resident, we may provide assistance with daycare, job-seeking skills, debt management and budgeting, GED classes or college classes - whatever is necessary to help them be successful.

time

There is no set time that a woman can stay as long as she is working toward her goals. An average stay is 3-6 months.

"Compassion House is more than just a shelter. We empower women to be more resilient when they face life's challenges."

Kim TolbertProgram Manager of Compassion House

Application Form

FAQs

How do the women qualify to become residents? They fill out an application and meet with the shelter coordinator who determines whether they would be a good fit for CH. They must not have a recent record of violent crime or drug charges. They can’t be using drugs or alcohol and must be willing to work to regain control of their lives. We currently have a waitlist of homeless women seeking help.
Do the residents have to pay anything? No. All their needs are met so they can save their money to eventually afford an apartment of their own. We provide meals, linens, toiletries, laundry supplies, and clothes, as well as classes and counseling - everything they need to get back on their feet.
What do the children do while they stay at CH? They are in school or at daycare during the day. During the summer, they enjoy activities at the Boys and Girls Club. In the evenings and on weekends, they play in the playroom or on the playground. Many participate in the youth and church programs available here at the Salvation Army.
What can I do to help? We are always in need of twin-size sheets and comforters, bath towels, diapers and laundry supplies, and of course, monetary gifts are always appreciated. If you have a background in budgeting, nutrition, parenting, or self-improvement, we might be able to use your services as a volunteer counselor or mentor to our residents.

SUPPORT AN ANGEL THIS CHRISTMAS NOW

Adopt An Angel Now

For a family or individual in need, the holidays can be a time of loneliness and heartache. The Angel Tree program provides Christmas gifts to families in need in Martin, St. Lucie and Okeechobee Counties. This program allows donors to truly share Christmas joy with a child!

How the Angel tree works:

1) Take an angel from the Angel Tree

2) Purchase gifts for that child. There are gift suggestions on the Angel provided by the parent, but you can also be creative and purchase items you think that child would enjoy!

3) Don’t wrap your gifts! Bundle all of your new and unwrapped gifts and return them to the business where you received your Angel or you may drop the gifts at our Distribution Center

4) Don’t forget to include your Angel code on the gifts! This way, we will know which child should receive gifts.

The Doctrines of the Salvation Army

We believe that the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments were given by inspiration of God, and that they only constitute the Divine rule of Christian faith and practice.
We believe that there is only one God, who is infinitely perfect, the Creator, Preserver, and Governor of all things, and who is the only proper object of religious worship.
We believe that there are three persons in the Godhead – the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, undivided in essence and co-equal in power and glory.
We believe that in the person of Jesus Christ the Divine and human natures are united, so that He is truly and properly God and truly and properly man.
We believe that our first parents were created in a state of innocency, but by their disobedience, they lost their purity and happiness, and that in consequence of their fall, all men have become sinners, totally depraved, and as such are justly exposed to the wrath of God.
We believe that the Lord Jesus Christ has by His suffering and death made an atonement for the whole world so that whosoever will may be saved.
We believe that repentance toward God, faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and regeneration by the Holy Spirit are necessary to salvation.
We believe that we are justified by grace through faith in our Lord Jesus Christ and that he that believeth hath the witness in himself.
We believe that continuance in a state of salvation depends upon continued obedient faith in Christ.
We believe that it is the privilege of all believers to be wholly sanctified, and that their whole spirit and soul and body may be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We believe in the immortality of the soul, the resurrection of the body, in the general judgement at the end of the world, in the eternal happiness of the righteous, and in the endless punishment of the wicked.

Family Night

What is Club 316?

Family Night (Club 316) is a free Bible based kids program that helps teach positive interaction and growth while learning about God.

We foster an environment of learning long after the school day ends. By providing a safe place to study, read, learn, connect with friends and play.

Our Goal

Develop strong values, skills and confidence as they grow into adulthood. By providing a balanced environment for learning, that is child-oriented and Christ-centered.

Date

Family Night is every Tuesday night starting with dinner at 5:30 pm in the Fellowship Hall. At 6:15 pm, after dinner, high schoolers and adults attend a Bible study while children stay in the Fellowship Hall for Club 316.

Teen Night

January 29th at 10 AM - 1 PM at The Salvation Army Stuart Family Store.

What is Teen Night (Corps Cadets)?

Corps Cadets is a practical training that provides the individual an opportunity to discover and develop potential for effective leadership in The Salvation Army as a soldier or an officer.

Our Goal

The overall goal of the Corps Cadet program is to prepare our young people for a lifelong commitment to spiritual growth and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and for serving God and The Salvation Army to the fullest extent possible.

Age Group / Time

Grades 7 to 12

Teens meet every Friday at 5PM.

What is Bold

The BOLD for Corps Cadets curriculum is a student-based learning format in which students actively participate in activities and discussions and make discoveries rather than having teachers dictate all facts and ideas. Through the lessons, corps cadets understand biblical truths and derive important principles to apply to their own life situations.
