Comments

The former Church of Our Lady of the Rosary, Wee Jasper held its last service at Christmas 2019, and was deconsecrated in August 2021. The property was sold in November 2021. The church had been part of the Parish of Yass in the Archdiocese of Canberra and Goulburn. Early services in the district were conducted in private homes by visiting priests, with the area becoming part of the Yass Parish in 1906, although a church building was not blessed and opened until 19/9/1954, by Archbishop O'Brien of Canberra & Goulburn. The church celebrated its fiftieth anniversary Mass on 19/9/2004. The building was funded by the community and was also used by other denominations. More historical information/photographs of the former church/congregation are invited. Photographs uploaded 16/4/2021.
