Saint Ambrose Society

“I was naked and you gave me clothing;
I was sick and you took care of me; I was in prison and you visited me.”

Following the Call of Christ

The Saint Ambrose Society is an outreach ministry which strives to live out our gospel values by serving the poor through the Corporal Works of Mercy. This ministry requires many volunteers who are willing to help in a variety of ways. The volunteer schedule fluctuates based on the needs of the organizations we serve. Volunteers are scheduled accordingly and on a rotating basis.

How Can You Help?

  1. Prepare food in our school cafeteria and Church Hall for our meal’s programs.
  2. Serve food in various homeless shelters and soup kitchens.
  3. Assist in the collecting, sorting and distribution of clothes for our clothing pantry (Refresh & Renew).
  4. Assist with our home maintenance repair program.
  5. Make a monetary donation to support outreach efforts.

If you are interested in volunteering for the Saint Ambrose Society, please contact Deacon Joe Fragale at [email protected] or 314-771-1228 ext 109.

Current Collections

Clothing Pantry (Refresh & Renew)

We have transitioned to fall and winter clothing. Coats, mufflers, gloves and warm hats are needed for the 20 homeless and sheltered individuals we serve. Please contact Bonnie Devoti at 314-223-1495 if you have questions or to set up a drop off time.

Baby Bottom Bonanza

Thank you to everyone who has been so generous in supporting the Accardi Family and the “Baby Bottom Bonanza” campaign to collect diapers, pull ups, ointment and wipes to keep the “baby bottoms” served by Nurses for Newborns, dry and healthy. We have collected 1,949 items; the Accardi’s have collected 3,635 plus monetary contributions that will be used to purchase more! The BBB campaign will continue to run through the end of the year.
