About

Our Lady of Rosary Parish Office in downtown San Diego's Little Italy coordinates the sacramental and administrative functions of the Italian-Catholic parish established on Columbia Street in 1921. The office manages funeral liturgies, baptismal records, and marriage preparation alongside service partners such as All Faiths Mortuary for end-of-life arrangements. Sacramental recordkeeping here traces through more than a century of parish history begun when the founding pastor established the Italian-Catholic congregation to serve San Diego's growing immigrant fishing community. The office also serves as the scheduling hub for weekly Mass, confession, and community events, including coordination for the annual Rosary Festa that draws hundreds of attendees along the Embarcadero for a procession and boat blessing. That Festa is one of several cultural anchor events connecting the parish to the broader neighborhood identity maintained by the Little Italy Association of San Diego. The office's highest-complexity function is overseeing the parish's building-preservation program, including management of the recently completed $2.5 million interior restoration that installed Calcutta marble flooring and remastered original Venetian artwork throughout the sanctuary.
