Rosary Altar Society
We Gather in Friendship and Love to Honor our Blessed Mother
The Rosary Altar Society is officially known as the Confraternity of the Most Holy Rosary. The Confraternity was proposed by  Ala del la Roche, a Dominican Friar, in 1470. The purpose of the Society is to praise and honor the Blessed Virgin Mary and to secure her patronage by the recitation of the Rosary for the mutual spirit of all its members throughout the world. 

St. Jude’s Rosary Altar Society was charted on April 25, 1958, and is affliated with the Confraternity of the Most Holy Rosary.   Our Spiritual Director is Father Anthony Ligato, who guides us on our spiritual journey.  Our Members are involved in many charitable activities that benefit our Parish and the local community.
