Senior Ambassadors is a group oriented to older adults.  The group was founded to serve those age 55+ and was given its name by Holy Spirit's first pastor, Fr. Dale Tupper, based on St. Paul's 2nd letter to the Corinthians, chapter 5, v. 20, "...we are ambassadors for Christ, so that God is exhorting through us...."

The group gathers for various events throughout the year including regular Sunday morning breakfast at various locations, concerts, plays, river cruises, a golf outing, Sunday noon lunch (which serves the poor), a morning of reflection, local tours, and other events suggested by the group.  Each of the activities typically involves a meal at a local restaurant.  No regular meetings are held and there are no dues.  The aim is to be, for the parish, a wise presence, a model of aging well, and a service of caring for others.  All are welcome to join the group for any of the events at anytime.
