Cavell was in her second year of training college, and Wayne was about to begin his first. They began dating once they were at the college together in the fall, and have been together ever since.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur first appointment after we were married in December of 1978, was in Greenspond, Newfoundland. It was the dead of winter and we were sent to reopen the corps after it had been closed for 10 years,\u201d says Wayne. \u201cIt was quite the adventure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While they serve as Area Commanders for The Salvation Army\u2019s Maritime Division today, they find their experience from their first appointment more than 40 years ago is still relevant.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe learned that making an impact in a community is about building relationships,\u201d says Wayne. \u201cWhile our work is different today, and we\u2019ve had to find more creative ways to build relationships over the years, it all comes back to the relationships themselves whether it\u2019s with a person in need or a fellow officer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/salvationarmy.ca\/atlantic\/2020\/02\/anything-but-loveless\/img-9386\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8131\"><img class=\"alignleft wp-image-8131 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/salvationarmy.ca\/atlantic\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/02\/IMG-9386.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"397\" height=\"300\" \/><\/a>Throughout the years, they have been stationed across both Canada and Bermuda, in roles that range from Corps to Social Services ministry to Divisional leadership. But the time they spent working closely together has allowed them to become a dynamic duo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has always been a partnership between us. We work as a team and have skill-sets that complement each other,\u201d he continues. \u201cI am about getting to know people one-on-one, while Cavell is creative in her preaching and writing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to their name, they both can sense a little irony. But throughout their years as officers, they have been able to show love and compassion in every community they have lived in.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe do get teased about our name,\u201d says Cavell. \u201cBut I\u2019m a Loveless by marriage, we\u2019re not loveless people, and we don\u2019t have a loveless marriage!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By: Angela Rafuse<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Across the maritimes, officers and salvationist couples are working side-by-side to bring hope, transform communities and lead through ministry.
