A new beginning
The new St. Ambrose Roman Catholic Church, built on the
site of the former Brussels Church is beginning to take
shape. In the interim the congregation attends Mass at the
Catholic Church in Wingham and for one week a month at
St. John's Anglican Church in Brussels. Actual construction
began early April and it is hoped to have the building
completed by Labour Day. The street which passes in front
of the church has been blocked off. Many of the
congregation members are donating volunteer time
towards the construction.
Say you saw it in The Citizen!
