Immaculate Conception Church Palmer Road
This is the largest wooden church in the diocese of Charlottetown (PEI) It is located about a 15 minute drive from Tignish. This Church was built in 1893. I don't know much about it other than it is a very beautiful building.
It has a very beautiful high altar which I believe is original. The two side altars complete the front of the church. The only this I would change, would be to move the tabernacle back to the center of the high altar.
Completing the back of the church above the balcony is a huge rose window which was just newly installed in 2007 replacing an older window. This is an awesome window. I also really like the way the pillars continue up to support the roof.

Nice Church...Very much agree with you about the Tabernacle...It looks weird with flowers on the middle of the High Altar...
It looks even worst at Mass when the priest is standing there...
I can imagine...It looks though that there is a Tabernacle there but it's vacant.
yah most of the churches still have the original tabernacle in the middle but they dont use it...sadly
