It’s a unique wood framed church and you can see the blended Neo-Classical and Gothic design elements. It  has been  contended that built builder-architect William Murray  built it or had a hand in it’s finishing.  Murray is famous for his craftsmanship in other New Brunswick buildings  The Church was blessed in 1853, by the Bishop of St John.

The  adjacent parish cemetery  pre-dates the church and shows it was a Roman Catholic mission-base for the Miramichi region.  

We visited after a storm and  the sky was just as incredible as the church.
