Under the guidance of Father Czujak, the Rosary Sodality had its beginning at St. Henry's on July 27, 1928.
It was sanctioned by our Holy Father, the Pope and Archbishop Mathieu of Regina, on November 30, 1928.
Meetings were held in the homes, during the day, for lack of electric lights. The horse and buggy was still the chief mode of travel and that had to be considered.
