Crozet, Virginia is a growing community in Albemarle County, located at the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains.

On October 4, 2020 Bishop Knestout celebrated Mass in Crozet and officially named our mission community Our Lady of the Rosary. We are continuing to work to become a Parish. The elevation to mission status has allowed the community to celebrate weekly Masses; to offer all the sacraments, among them baptisms and marriages; to begin a religious education program; and to begin the search for land suitable to build a church on

Our Lady of the Rosary is currently a mission of Church of the Incarnation parish in Charlottesville. 

Our History:
On December 15, 2013, Bishop Francis X. DiLorenzo gave local Catholics and Holy Comforter Catholic Church pastor, Fr. Joseph Mary Lukyamuzi permission to begin holding a once-a-month Mass in Crozet in January 2014. This decision was designed to test community support for a Catholic church. Local Catholics formed the Crozet Mass Committee and Masses began in March 2014, on the second Sunday of the month, at The Field School. The Crozet Catholic Mass was an immediate success, and the first Mass attracted 250 people. Eventually, in 2017, we began celebrating one Sunday Mass weekly at the Field School.  The concern regarding Covid 19 and the pandemic in Spring 2020, impacted our ability to hold Mass in person at the Field School, and we had to view Mass via livestream.  In July 2020, we began celebrating Mass weekly at Crozet Baptist Church.
