St. Ambrose Parish History


St. Ambrose Parish is rich with history. By the mid-19th century, Northford and North Branford had few Catholics who attended St. Patrick or St. Mary churches in New Haven.


After 1854, North Branford and Northford Catholics could celebrate Mass at the new St. Mary Parish, Branford, once every three weeks...

JOIN US FOR EVENING PRAYER

"Evening Prayer (also called Vespers) is part of the Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office. In the Liturgy of the Hours, the Church fulfills Jesus' command to "pray always" (Luke 18:1; see also 1 Thessalonians 5:17). Through this prayer, the people of God sanctify the day by continual praise of God and prayers of intercession for the needs of the world."  Vespers is a prayer service includes sung passages from Scripture (mainly Psalms), in addition to Scripture reading and a reflection. This prayer is “the voice of a bride addressing her bridegroom; it is the very prayer that Christ Himself, together with His Body, addresses to the Father.”  Vespers is a part of this beautiful aspect of the Liturgy of the Hours. Come join us on Sunday evenings during Lent from 5:30-6p, booklets will be available each week to guide you!
