| | May 2003 - General praises advisory boards, encourages worldwide renewal |
 | | Larsson and his wife, Commissioner Freda Larsson, world president of Women’s Ministries, shared their vision for a “renewed” Salvation Army, one filled with passion for ministry and mission. |
 | | Larsson quoted God’s words, spoken to the prophet Isaiah, saying, we must “do a new thing.” He said that new things are happening around the Army world, particularly in India and Africa, where two—thirds of the Army’s senior soldiers live. |
 | | Larsson reported that new things are happening in the Muslim countries of Pakistan and Indonesia, despite the fact that Salvationists are restricted to working only within their Christian communities. |
