Saint Jean Baptiste Roman Catholic Church

church building United States
This church is in downtown Lowell, Massachusetts, and is where the beat poet Jack Kerouac served Catholic Mass as an altar boy when he lived in Lowell. At that time the congregation was Franco-American. Later, it became Latin American and the church was renamed Nuestra Señora de Monte Carmelo. The building is not a church now, but used to be called the "cathedral of Lowell" and is really beautiful and beloved. Kerouac's childhood house is not far away from the church, and he wrote that when a highway was put through his beloved neighborhood he was heartbroken.
