There's at least half a dozen churches named Nossa Senhora do Rosario in the Azores. Kinda like me stating I go to St. John's. You'd ask "Where?" Because we are dealing with 9 different islands and you want as many people to read your post as you can, it's best to always state the island too. People interested in your island of research will read your posts. The further back you go, they may be able to make a connection. Without the island, they just scan your Subject title and delete you. You'll be missing out on a chance to connect.
Tombo.pt (tombo.pt/en for English) is a portal or a table of contents to the CCA. You will find navigation much easier there, especially when you get to using the records (baptisms, marriages, deaths). Right now the CCA is down. I posted that info in another thread. It's about 5 pm there now, so they are probably going home. Maybe the CCA will be up tomorrow.
