Society Of The Sacred Mission
The Society of the Sacred Mission (SSM), with the associated Company of the Sacred Mission, is an Anglican religious order founded in 1893 by Father Herbert Kelly, envisaged such that "members of the Society share a common life of prayer and fellowship in a variety of educational, pastoral and community activities". Its motto is ''Ad gloriam Dei in eius voluntate'' ("To the glory of God in his will"). Owing to the long association with Kelham, and the theological college there, the Society is often known colloquially as the "Kelham Fathers", although it has now become a mixed community for both men and women.

Early life and education Kelly was born at St James's Vicarage, George Street, Manchester, the son of the Rev. James Davenport Kelly and his wife, Margaret Alice Eccles. He was educated at Manchester Grammar School. After army training at the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich, Kelly studied history at Queen's College, Oxford and was ordained in 1884. As a theologian Kelly was influenced initially by Charles Kingsley, but to more lasting effect by the writing of Frederick Denison Maurice, especially in his two volumes entitled ''The Moral and Metaphysical Philosophy'' and ''The Kingdom of Christ''. Kelly sought to explore the way in which a society and culture created "propositions" about God and then a church "system" that follows from such propositions.
