SAINT AMBROSE CATHOLIC CHURCH

PARISH MISSION STATEMENT

We, the members of St. Ambrose Parish, believe that, through our faith and

baptism, we have been called to give witness to the values of

Jesus as expressed in the Gospel and teachings of our

Church.

NOVEMBER 15, 2020

THIRTY THIRD SUNDAY IN

ORDINARY TIME

When one finds a worthy wife, her value is far beyond pearls. Her husband, entrusting his heart to her, has an unfailing prize. She brings him good, and not evil, all the days of her life. She obtains wool and flax and works with loving hands. She puts her hands to the distaff, and her fingers ply the spindle. She reaches out her hands to the poor, and extends her arms to the needy. Charm is deceptive and beauty fleeting; the woman who fears the LORD is to be praised. Give her a reward for her labors, and let her works praise her at the city gates. PRV 31:10-13 5130 Wilson Avenue St. Louis, MO 63110 Parish Office Hours Monday – Friday 7:00am-4:00pm Phone: 314.771.1228 Fax: 314.771.0454 St. Ambrose School Phone: 314.772.1437 Emergency: 314-920-7924 www.stambroseonthehill.com

About the Society of St. Vincent de Paul

Thirty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time:

The good news of today’s Gospel is the extravagance of what is being given us. All we need do is be faithful in

“small matters.” The cost of fidelity has no comparison to the reward given. When you donate the furniture, household items and clothing you no longer use to the Society of St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store, you are sharing God’s extravagant love. For assistance with food, rent, utilities, furniture, clothing

or prescription medication, call (314) 289-6101 Ext. 1131

Please Pray For

Msg. John “Jack” Hickel

St. Ambrose Parish Prayer Chain The power of intercessory prayer is miraculous. It is the presence of God embodied in the care and

concern of our faith community. Volunteers are needed to build the chain and become indispensable links. If you are looking for a ministry that you can do without ever leaving home,

this is it!! To leave a request for prayer, or volunteer to pray for others, email: [email protected] or call 314-409-3729.

The Boards of the Piazza Imo and Hill 2000 want you to have an opportunity to reserve your seats for what we believe will be a spectacular Christmas event. Seating is limited. CDC rules enforced. Only those with a ticket will have entry to the Piazza from 4 p.m. until after the concert. The General public, without a ticket are welcome to gather outside the Piazza, observing social distancing and wearing a mask. When the gates are opened, all are welcome to come in and enjoy Piazza Imo.
