Mr. Luke Sagoi is at a loss as how to source for fund to complete the building of St. Luke the Evangelist's Chapel. Mr. Luke is the Chairman of village church committee of Kampong Petag and the villagers had been working hard not only to raise fund but also building the chapel on community help basis, commonly called gotong royong.
In 2008 the committee proposed to organise a fund-raising dinner either at the zone or parish level but was unable to carry out the project due to manpower constraints.
On May 9, 2009 I visited Kampong Sta’ang for the family game day together with Friar Gerard Victor, OFM and Friar Joseph Lee, OFM. On our way back, we stopped at Kampong Petag to have a look at the chapel. The condition of the chapel was very depressing indeed.
Friar Gerard Victor, OFM confided with me early this year that this chapel would be his first priority. I understand his aspiration.
Mr. Luke informed me last week that he needed about RM40,000 to complete the chapel. 
These pictures were taken in May last year.
