Lubec Christian Temple, Lubec, Maine The congregation was founded in 1868, and the present building put up in 1892. Featuring one of the two steeples visible from across the Lubec Narrows in Canada, the building sits atop a hill overlooking the town, alongside the Congregational and Roman Catholic churches. The sanctuary is of finished wood, with the wall broken by stained glass windows on the sides and rear. One interesting quirk of the shape of the building is that ushers on the congregation's left must pass through the mud room to get from the front of the sanctuary to the rear.
