By Vicky Lamont
Captain Tracey will have a joint ministry in charge of Coleraine and Ballymoney Salvation Army churches.
"It's lovely to be ministering back home and close to family," Captain Tracey told the Times this week.
"I'm looking forward to raising the profile of The Salvation Army in Coleraine and Ballymoney and to working together as a band of God's people, striving to serve the communities in which we are called to serve and seeing men, women and young children come to know Jesus as Lord."
"I believe God has much for The Salvation Army to do, though we need to be obedient and take up our Cross daily and follow Him. I believe the best is yet to be, and that God is going to use each one of us in more ways than we could ever imagine."
Captain Tracey is originally from Dundonald and joined The Salvation Army at the age of 13.
She has been a Salvation Army Officer and fully ordained minister for more than six years.
