Why 730?

In order to become a Salvation Army officer, cadets are trained for 730 days at the Evangeline Booth College for Officer Training. Through classroom, on-campus, and in-field training, cadets are holistically trained to become officers, ministering the love and healing of our Lord Jesus Christ to a lost and hurting world.
