Building a
Community
A growing fishing fleet spawned a community of grocers and shopkeepers who supported the industry and fed the neighborhood.


LED BY FAITH…
The traditions and Faith of their ancestors remained at the core of the family. Just as the physical needs of shelter and food were met as the immigrant families became successful and prospered, so was the the spiritual growth fostered when the parish of Our Lady of the Rosary was established by Father Sylvester Rabagliati.
Faith of our Fathers
On the corner of Date & Columbia… the tiny house would grow to become the religious center of Little Italy.
A pilgrim church founded by immigrants to bring the Faith of their fathers to a new land continues to minister to the faith community, celebrating the Blessed Sacraments for new generations.
