St. Rose Of Lima

St. Rose of Lima, Roman Catholic Church in Newtown CT: The first Catholic Mass in Fairfield County was celebrated in Newtown in 1781 and since her founding in 1859, Saint Rose Church has been the spiritual center for the spread of the Gospel of Jesus Christ for our area communities. Saint Rose Church is the "Mother Church" of several surrounding parishes having once served eleven towns in upper Fairfield County earlier in her history. Saint Rose Church has been designated a National Catholic Historical Site by the Order of Alhambra. In keeping with our tradition, we have assembled a diverse set of parish information and Catholic Christian internet links to spread the Good News by the means available to us in the modern day. We honor our rich heritage and strive to live the Word together, today, through our common faith in Jesus Christ and our love of the Church.
