Our Lady of the Magnificat - Kinnelon, NJ - Roman Catholic Churches on Waymarking.com

In 1952, Henry Wise Miller, who was not Catholic, and his wife Audrey Miller donated land to the Diocese of Paterson, for the future formation of parish now known as Our Lady of the Magnificat.

Mr. Miller was in failing health during construction of the Chapel and shortly before his death he was affirmed to the Catholic faith. He lived to see the Chapel dedication of July 2, 1954 and died September 15, 1954. His was the first funeral Mass in the Chapel. Mrs. Audrey Frazier Miller died in Arkansas in June of 1976.

The Chapel remains an architectural and cultural landmark in our community of which all citizens in Kinnelon can be justly proud.

The chapel is no longer used for services, which now take place in the main church, which was built in the 1980's and is pictured on this page.
