St. Boniface

Tucked neatly away in Perry County is one of the prettiest churches in Arkansas - the St. Boniface Church.

PA011490

The first church here was built in 1901, but it burned only a few years later in January of 1906. All of the church was destroyed, except for the hand-carved high altar that was saved from the flames. The current church was built within just a few months and opened in September of 1906.

And just on the edge of the church property is this dirt road, that heads through this tunnel of trees into some private property. I snapped this quick photo before heading back to the car to drive back toward Conway.
