St Rose of Lima Church History

History of Catholicism in Beaverhead County dates back to 1840 when Father Pierre Jean DeSmet said Mass at the mouth of "Hell Roaring Canyon" at Upper Red Rock Lake.  Subsequent to this, Father Kelleher of Virginia City traveled to Dillon to attend to the local Catholics.  After Father Dols was assigned Dillon's first rector, a brick church was built and dedicated to St. Rose of Lima in 1888.  The current church in Dillon was built in 1929.

Keeping
the Faith

We are a Catholic community seeking to grow in our own faith while encouraging our brothers and sisters in Christ.
