Spirituality Community & Service
Preparing a place for God, first in our hearts, and then in the world in which we live.
The Society of the Sacred Advent (SSA) has been working with women and girls in Queensland for over 125 years. Join us as we enter a new stage of community life and continue the tradition of spirituality and loving service.
“In making a place for God in our hearts and in the world in which we live, we (the SSA) are striving to do the work of creating what we might called sacred spaciousness for ourselves, so that we can model that for others and invite them into that space. Then in that space, where we hope to meet with God and hear Christ’s voice, we trust we will discover just what kinds of service we are being called to. And we help others find their call also, as they join with us in our work.”

Worship with us this month
The Season of Holy Women, celebrated in the Anglican Communion between July 20th and August 15th, acknowledges and celebrates the contribution of women to Jesus’ life, and to the life of the Christian faith community since. Mary and Martha illustrate the juxtaposition of the lives of women in their spiritual connection with Christ played out through their daily lives, while the Season of Holy Women provides an opportunity to recognise the Divine-endowned qualities that women gift to Christ and their communities.
Our monthly Eucharist is held on the first Sunday of every month (except January) at St Colomb’s Anglican Church, Victoria St Clayfield.
Afternoon tea from 3.15pm
Eucharist at 4pm
