Our Guiding Purpose

Our purpose is to "worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness (Ps. 96)" upholding the timeless beauty of the Orthodox Christian worship according to the sublime liturgical traditions of the Latin fathers and saints. We provide a spiritual sanctuary where individuals can deepen their faith, find solace, and build a supportive community. We strive to encounter Christ, become spiritually transformed, and spread the teachings of Jesus Christ in the York, PA area. Join us in our journey of faith and fellowship.

Our Worship Services

At St. Ambrose, we gather regularly for the traditional liturgies of the Orthodox Christian Church. Our Divine Liturgy of St Gregory (commonly called the traditional Mass) is celebrated with reverence and beauty, using the rich prayers and hymns that have been passed down through the centuries. The evening office of Vespers is also an important part of our worship life, offering a time for reflection, thanksgiving, and evening prayer. Whether you are new to the Orthodox faith or have been a lifelong believer, we invite you to come and participate in our liturgical life.

Our Mission

Our mission as a part of the Antiochian Western Rite Vicariate is to reclaim the Orthodox Church's western patrimony through celebration of the traditional Mass, and prayer of the Divine Office. Learn more about the Vicariate and the Orthodox West
