Respect
for aging is central to the Bible’s
greatest teaching. Concern for elders is found in the most important
episodes of
both the Old and New Testaments. This is the theological
base on which Mississippi Methodist Senior Services, Inc. has
built
its ministry. We share this rich heritage with the
Mississippi Annual Conference of the United
Methodist Church, whose dreams led to our
birth forty years ago. Four decades
later, we still share a mutual ministry
with, and are related to, the Conference and
we support conformity with the highest
standards of care and operational integrity.
In accordance with Christian teaching and in the tradition of
Methodism, Senior
Services recognizes the contribution elders have made to family
and community. We hold the wisdom and experience
of elders in high esteem and do not forsake them in the time
of older age.
The vision of MMSS is to be the preeminent
provider and innovator of affordable housing and services to elders.
The
core values of MMSS are:
- Servant Ministry
- the Dignity of Elders
- Compassion for Those We Serve
- Operational Excellence
- Innovative Service
