St. Joseph's Chapel, Kuala Krai: Post-Flood Cleaning up

Today,  a group of parishioners from Kota Bharu together with some from Kuala Krai, got together to clean up St. Joseph's Chapel almost a month after the flood waters receeded. The flood waters in Kuala Krai rose up to the first floor of the Chapel, and did a lot of damage to the interior and its furnishing. All furniture had to be removed and the interior of the chapel given a thorough cleaning.
Thanks to Gerard Yeo, Philip Tiau, Charlie Choo and their wives and children and Mr Kam from Kuala Krai for their hard work. May God bless you all and your tremendous effort. Further cleaning is still required next Friday, and Sr. Jackie is calling for help from the university and college students.
