JOHOR – The Church of St Theresa in Masai, which has served the local community since 1937, has launched a plea for donations to rebuild its dilapidated structure.
Despite decades of service to parishioners, the passage of time has left the church in a state of disrepair. To address this pressing issue, the church has embarked on a new construction project. However, progress has been hindered by challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic and bureaucratic obstacles in obtaining necessary approvals.
Breaking ground on the construction of a new church marks a significant step forward, but funding remains a critical issue. While various fundraising initiatives have been undertaken, the church acknowledges that additional support is needed to realise its vision.
Appealing to sister churches across Peninsular Malaysia, the clergy and parish community of St Theresa’s church humbly requests for contributions. Every donation, regardless of size, will play a vital role in the rebuilding effort, bringing the community one step closer to achieving its goal.
The parish community extends its sincere gratitude to those who have already contributed and prays for God’s abundant blessings upon them for their generosity and support.
For those wishing to make a donation, please contact Fr Cyril Mannnayagam at 012-5809541 or via email: cyrilmanna70@gmail.com. – Herald Malaysia
