Mom & Tots Pray & Play will be held every Wednesday from 10am-11am for the months of May and June (except May 24th). Please use the entrance on South Street to the door labeled “Adoration Chapel”.
What is Mom & Tots Pray & Play? This new ministry at St. Ambrose Parish is for Moms with young children to have the opportunity to have their children spend time with Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. After Moms and their children have some quiet time with Jesus, we invite them to come to the Children’s Liturgy room to play with other young children and be supervised by volunteers who are parish moms. This then gives Mothers the opportunity to return on their own to the Adoration Chapel for some quiet prayer time with Jesus. Please contact Bernadette bandtdietrich@rogers.com or Lalaine aaron.lalaine@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Camp Brebeuf in Rockwood Ontario – yearly summer camp for kids!
Website campbrebeuf.ca
C.Y.O. Camp Brébeuf offers a variety of activities and facilities to provide children with a memorable camp experience.
Day Camp: For campers aged 4-13 . Campers are placed into age-based groups that they will rotate with to activities during the week. We specifically design all group activity rotations to be age-appropriate for the various sections with 9 different program areas that campers will get to experience.
Overnight Camp: For campers aged 7 to 14. Campers are placed into age-based cabin groups that become their home for the duration of their stay at camp. During the day for programming a cabin may be paired with a second cabin to create a ‘cabin group’ of campers for activities.

Children’s Liturgy  at  11:00 am Mass
