Introduction	Located in Dillingham, Alaska, Holy Rosary church congregates on ten acres of land near the Dillingham Airport. There is a church building on one end of the graveled parking lot.It was built in the 1980's and donated by Catholic Extention Society. On the other end of the parking lot is the rectory, a three bedrom house with basement and garage. It was built in the 1940's. Between the church and the rectory is the old church. We plan to repair this church so we can use it for meetings and fund raisers. The Holy Rosary Mission consists of two other church buildings located in King Salmon and Clarks Point. Additionally, over twenty villages are considered part of the mission. Mass in these other villages are normally held in houses, schools, or fish canneries. There are no roads leading to or from any villiages in the Holy Rosary mission territory. Any personal contact made to these Catholics must be done by air.
