Comments

The Holy Rosary Catholic Church, White Hills is part of the Parish of White Hills, declared on 2/5/1957, and the Diocese of Sandhurst. The church had its beginnings in the 1850s, when a few Catholics met to recite the Holy Rosary in private homes. The first church building was blessed and opened by Bishop J McCarthy on 18/10/1917, which also became a school in 1918. The present church building was opened by Bishop Stewart on 26/11/1978. More historical information/photographs of the church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 12/2/2023.
