Our Lady of the Holy Rosary 

Our Mission

On the following weekends, Holy Rosary's regularly scheduled Masses will NOT be held in the school auditorium, as the space is not available:

• February 23/24
• March 16/17
• May 18/19

November 17, 1912: Iron bars must be used to prevent the old wooded church walls from collapsing, and the people are told that Mass can no longer be celebrated in the church.

The School Hall was then used for Mass by Holy Rosary Parish for the next nine years.

November 16, 2018: Due to extensive water damage in the church, engineers and architects must conduct a series of tests to determine if the church building is safe, and what it will take to repair it.

Weekend Masses will be held in the School Auditorium at the regular Mass times until further notice.

Daily Mass will be held in the Convent Meeting Center Chapel (where the parish offices are) on Mondays and Wednesdays. The Friday School Mass will be in the Auditorium.

While we hope this is a very temporary situation, it's interesting that 106 years ago, on this very weekend, we found ourselves in a similar situation.

But let us as a community always remember, "For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them" (Matt. 18:20).
