From Church's website:

The church's interior provides an astonishing feast for the eyes, ears and testimony to the lasting value of an artisan's legacy. It's magnificent aesthetic beauty includes artistic hand-painted stencil motifs covering the walls and vaulted ceilings, stained glass windows, antique religious statues, among them one of the most beautiful statues of the Immaculate Heart of Mary; reportedly the first to be venerated on American soil.
