Founded two years ago by the Rev. Nancy Baxter, the SSAP is a
community of women aged 50 and older who are living the Christian
life within vows of simplicity, creativity and balance. The members
are laywomen, priests and deacons. They are single, married,
partnered, widowed or divorced. As a dispersed society, members have
their own places of residence. The society focuses on service to
children and the elderly.
Nancy was quoted in a recent edition of Connecting, the
diocesan weekly Email newsletter, as saying, "Inspired by the
example of Anna's witness, we seek to promote the godly aging of our
members and to provide a prophetic witness to the gifts and graces
of old age."
