"It was the first Sunday of December 1941 that six families gathered in the village of Maine at the home of Jesse Wade to celebrate Mass with Fr. John Phelan. While this day is remembered by most as Pearl Harbor Day, it was the beginning of local worship services for area Catholics. In 1942, the Ketchum Inn was purchased and renovated to be a church. This historic structure, built in 1837, was dedicated as a Mission of St. Catherine’s on October 4, the Feast of the Most Holy Rosary. The building still serves the community as our parish hall."
"Most Holy Rosary has been a vibrant and active parish family. The willingness to serve and support is always apparent; the vision of faith in action is clear in this parish."
