Ministries: Holy Rosary Catholic Church
List of Services

Music MinistryList Item 1
When we sing one song during Mass, we pray twice! To keep parishioners engaged and coming back to mass regularly, I use the Three H's, Hymns, Hospitality, and Homily. Notice Hymns are first. Having good, well practiced music during Mass, keeps em coming back!! Thank you for donating your time and talent to our wonderful Catholic Church. Fr Scott

Because of the rugged living conditions, clergy in the past have been transitional and our parishioners have had to take ownership of their churches. Determined Catholic parishioners have learned to give flawless communion services, clean up flooding basements, keep the grass mowed, patch chuck-holes in the parking lot, and basically take charge of anything that needs done. For example, Holy Rosary, has a cleaning list posted in the vestibule that is always full a year in advance. Our faithful and spirited parishioners have allowed Catholicism to remain a viable religion in the Alaskan Bush.
