Divine Mercy Cenacle | Morning Session
Monthly | Second Monday of the Month | 11:00 am
We are parishioners praying for the dying. When our priests go to offer the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick, especially for the dying, you will receive an email with the first name of the person receiving the Sacrament, for whom at that time you will pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet. As you are able, pray the Chaplet during Eucharistic Adoration for those who will be dying that hour.
We have small groups called cenacles, which meet…
– to pray for and encourage the vocations of the priesthood and the religious life.
– to also pray and work for an end to the scourge of abortion in the world.
– to experience the splendor of our Catholic Faith through the study of Sacred Scripture and the Catechism and the Diary of Saint Faustine Kowalska.
– to encourage members in the exercise of the Faith through the spiritual and corporal works of mercy, and to help people to become sensitive to the gift and beauty of all life, especially through the care for the “lepers” of today.

November Soup Supper
2025-11-13 18:00 - 20:00 | Saint Ambrose Parish, 929 Pearl Rd, Brunswick, OH, 44212
November Soup Supper
November 13 | 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm | Mother Teresa
We are so blessed to have Cindy Parsons from the Wounded Warrior Project as our Guest Speaker. Cindy credits her own son, United States Army Sergeant, Shane Parsons, as her inspiration to do more with her life. While deployed in Iraq in 2006, Shane’s convoy was hit with an improvised explosive device. After suffering catastrophic injuries that included multiple cardiac arrests, a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), a severed left leg, and an amputation of his right leg, Cindy left her job as a registered nurse and flew across the world to be with her son while he underwent 15 surgeries and battled multiple infections.
For the next decade, Cindy served as Shane’s primary caregiver and learned first-hand the challenges faced by the family members of injured veterans. In addition to her public speaking and advocacy work, Cindy served on the board of the Brain Injury Association of Ohio for three years and is a member of the National Speaker’s Association. Today, Cindy travels the country to share her story of hope and perseverance. Please join us as we give a warm welcome to Cindy Parsons and as we show our support and gratitude to our Military members, families, and all those that support the brave men and women who serve.
Please RSVP.
Questions? Contact Lisa at Lhomady@StAmbrose.us or 330.460.7315.

At tonight’s Soup Supper, we will be accepting good-will donations for our own Military Ministry to include in our military member’s Christmas stockings that we send out to them. Items such as candy, prayer cards, beef jerky, trail mix, gum, lip balm, puzzle books, deck of cards, or small journals would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Are you unsure if you’re able to receive God’s tender forgiveness through Reconciliation? Visit our Sacraments webpage to determine if you’ve taken all of the right steps or reach out to us by sending us an email. We welcome all to the Family of God.
Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me, even so I send you.” And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”
–John 20:21-23
