You have finally found a place to call home and people you can call your church family.  St. Ambrose Parish is a vibrant, family friendly parish community located in Springfield, IL.

Whether you were raised Catholic, Protestant, atheist, agnostic, or have never even considered church, religion, and spirituality, there is a place for you here. Our community includes the young & young at heart.  We have Cubs and Cardinal fans, soccer moms and golfing dads, children, singles, grandparents, empty-nesters and snow-birds. And we are growing. Come grow with us!

Join us for Mass this weekend and experience our community for yourself!  If you'd like to join our parish, you can find our PARISH REGISTRATION FORMS HERE.

To the parents of young children:

• God put the wiggle in children–don’t feel you have to suppress those wiggles in God’s house.

• Quietly explain the parts of the Mass and actions of the priest, musicians, ushers, etc.

• Sing the hymns, pray and voice the responses. Children learn behavior by mimicking you.

• Consider sitting toward the front where it is easier for your little ones to engage.

• If you have to leave the Sanctuary with your child, feel free to do so, but please come back. As Jesus said, “Let the children come to me.”
