St. Ambrose was a small man with pale yellow hair like a nimbus. In the violence and confusion of his time, he stood out courageously resisting evil, strengthening the Church, and administering it with extraordinary ability. #EWTN #Catholic #Prayforus https://t.co/gxQqNkrSrV pic.twitter.com/2bFwRSY3PX
