God has a plan and is in control, the current situation is part of it - place your confidence and trust in God. "God is our Father and we are in His care." -- St. Francis de Sales.
Our Lady of the Rosary Chapel
Welcome to the website for Our Lady of the Rosary Chapel in Rochester, MN. We offer the Traditional Latin Mass exclusively at our chapel. Our chapel is associated with the priests of the Society of St. Pius V and with the priests of the Congregation of St. Pius V - both organizations of traditional Catholic priests dedicated to the traditional Latin Mass and the administration of the traditional Sacraments.
Our priests follow the rubrics of the Mass according to the Roman Missal (Missale Romanum 1954) prior to any of the liturgical changes implemented by the Second Vatican Council.
Dress Code
You are most welcome to come and assist at Mass. Be advised that we do enforce a dress code while on church property. According to Apostolic Tradition and out of respect for our Lord's presence in the Most Blessed Sacrament, the faithful must dress modestly while in the church and assisting at Holy Mass. Hence, please observe the following rules:
Women and girls must wear a modest dress/skirt and cover their heads with either a hat or chapel veil. Short skirts or dresses that are above the knees, revealing blouses (such as low cut, sleeveless or see-through), slacks or shorts of any length, or tight form-fitting clothing do not meet the norms of Christian modesty.
Men and boys should be wearing neat trousers, a coat, jacket or a dress sweater and tie. jeans, shorts, open shirts, sneakers and other such casual dress are inappropriate and do not meet the standards for Mass.
Please be advised that the priest reserves the right to refuse Holy Communion to anyone, who in his prudent judgment, does not meet the requirements of the Rules for Receiving Holy Communion and Dress Code as stated above.
