St Matthias’ Chapel Landeh Holds Successful Fundraising Dinner

KUCHING — St Matthias’ Chapel, Landeh, held a meaningful fundraising dinner last night which drew strong support from the local community. The event, graced by Batu Kitang assemblyman Lo Khere Chiang, was filled with joy, fellowship, and a spirit of unity as residents came together for a noble cause.

The dinner was organised to raise funds for the chapel’s ongoing mission to serve the people of Landeh and surrounding areas. Guests were treated not only to good food but also to heartfelt moments of togetherness, where faith and community spirit blended seamlessly.

Lo commended the efforts of the organising committee, church leaders, and volunteers for their hard work in ensuring the event’s success. He noted that gatherings such as this reflect the strength of the community’s commitment to faith, service, and social responsibility.

“The dedication shown by everyone involved is truly admirable. It shows how collective effort can create lasting impact when people unite for a noble purpose,” he said.

The evening also highlighted the generosity of the attendees, who contributed through donations, encouragement, and their active participation. Their support underscored the importance of unity and the value of working together to strengthen community institutions like St Matthias’ Chapel.

The success of the dinner stands as a testament to the love and support surrounding the chapel’s mission. Organisers expressed their gratitude to all who attended, hoping the proceeds raised will bring further blessings and growth to the church’s activities and outreach programmes.

St Matthias’ Chapel continues to be a beacon of faith, hope, and strength in Landeh. The fundraising dinner not only provided financial aid but also strengthened bonds within the community.

As Batu Kitang moves forward, events such as these serve as reminders of the importance of building a caring, united, and resilient society.
