Salvation Army Doughnuts & a Classification Talk

Getting the attention of hungry Rotarians, Captain Kelly Nolan of the Salvation Army gave his Classification Talk with a gift of Army Doughnuts. He told his audience that these doughnuts became recognized during the two World Wars in the 20th Century. They were distributed to the military by a group called the Hallelujah Lassies and today are distributed to commemorate the work done by the Salvation Army.

As for his talk, Kelly said he’d had several careers ­ he was attracted to math and science, electronics engineering, worked in the civil service, in aerospace, with computers, and then as a self-employed consultant, which went on for 17 years.

“I was always attracted to the tech field, but I must have been born in a pew because I’m a life-long Christian. In 1972 I attended the Lutheran Bible Institute in Seattle and now I’ve come full circle back to join the Salvation Army. I wear many hats, administration, as well as pastoring. The Salvation Army is a social service organization AND a church. We create a balance between worship and service. My uniform has the two letters SS ­ save to serve and serve to save. Our goal is to meet spiritual needs of people wherever we go. And now that I’m a Rotarian, SS means Service above Self! I’m very happy to be a Rotarian!”

Kelly’s a keeper! Get to know him.
