I stumbled upon this gem of an article it is Short So I will post in its entirety-

NEWCASTLE, Maine—A Roman Catholic church that touts itself as the oldest in New England is preparing for a bicentennial celebration in Maine.
St. Patrick Catholic Church will hold activities this weekend to mark the completion of its first church building in 1808. Festivities begin Saturday with a ringing of the church bell, one of the last church bells cast by Paul Revere before his death.
Bishop Richard Malone will celebrate Mass in the modern $2 million building completed in 2004 and there will be a Latin Mass in the original building, which still stands. The original small brick church sits on a hill and overlooks the Damariscotta River.
Did you Catch it?
Did you See!??!
I quote again…
…and there will be a Latin Mass in the original building, which still stands..
