History
Rev. Joseph Turcot was the first resident pastor. He built a new church which was completed on May 24, 1903. Bishop John Michaud blessed the church, whose membership included 60 families and an average Sunday attendance of 300 people.
In 1962, a parishioner erected a statue of Jesus overlooking Crystal Lake.
In 2004, the church was merged into a parish with St. Teresa's in Orleans and St. John Vianney in Irasburg. The reconfigured parish was known as "Trinity Parish."
IN 2006 Fr. Rupp entered a demolition derby as part of rundraising activity to help send parish teachers on a trip to Rome. A clip of the race was televised throughout the state on the evening news.
