Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Parish was built in 1955 with the first Mass celebrated Christmas Eve of 1955.
The first Pastor was The Most Rev. O. L. Kaufman, who, with the Bishop’s approval, selected the name of our parish.
At this time, we have over 400 families registered at
Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Parish.
Our Mass times are 5 pm Saturday and 8 and 10 am Sunday.
