Welcome to Our Parish Family:
Welcome to St. Francis de Hieronymo and St. Ambrose Catholic Parishes.  Our parishes are located in Neosho County in the center of the historic nine-county southeast Kansas region.  Together, St. Francis and St. Ambrose represent the richest Catholic historical heritage in the four-state region.   We are part of the Catholic Diocese of Wichita, Kansas.

The administrative center for our two-parish family is in St. Paul, Kansas.  The rectory and parish offices are located on the grounds of the St. Francis de Hieronymo Catholic Church and gardens.  Religious education for both parishes is conducted from the Religious Education Center located one block west of St. Francis.   St. Ambrose is located in Erie, Kansas, which is nine miles northwest of St. Paul.  The two parishes share many organizational features, but some are unique to the parish.  Each parish has a recreation and meeting hall located close to their church.
