Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish, 63 E Main St, Rockaway, NJ 07866, US

HistoryYour new church began in 1785 in the home of Jacob Demouth near Powerville, NJ, moving a bit later to the home of John P Cook on Old Boonton Road. A church was built on his property and services were conducted there for many years. In 1842, work began on a new building on the corner of Diamond Spring Rd and Church St. and it was completed in May of that year. We remained at that location until 1962 when the sanctuary for our new - and current - location at 190 Diamond Spring Rd was consecrated. An addition to the sanctuary was erected in 1975 and now houses our largest meeting room. In 1985, a new education wing was built, which now houses our pre-school, church offices, large kitchen and meeting rooms.SpecialtiesAn enthusiastic community of God's love in action.
