PUTATAN: With RM8 million spent since construction started in 2013, the Catholic faithful are still hoping that the St Catherine Laboure Church site at Kg Imbaan, Putatan, will be completed in due course.
It is understood that an injection of at least another RM6 million would be necessary, thus making it one of the most expensive churches to be built in Malaysia and possibly in Sabah. One thing for sure – it would be the first six-storey church in the nation.
A special blessing and handover ceremony to new contractor (Macromax Enterprise) was led and witnessed by Archbishop Datuk John Wong of the Archdiocese of Kota Kinabalu.
The Gothic-style six-storey church was built on donated ancestral land.
