T<\/span>oday is the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary. This is the first year since 1891 that no Mass will be celebrated for this feast at what was once the parish of Our Lady of the Holy Rosary in Tacoma. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m feeling melancholy today, so I thought I’d post some photos from past celebrations of what was our patronal solemnity. I was involved with Holy Rosary’s altar server program for about seven years, and these photos represent that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reading the blog entry for that first year<\/a> still moves me. I wish I had some photos of the servers or Masses from that time. See if you can find anything that says to you \u201cunviable parish\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
