If donating with PayPal, it is best to send it as "Friends and Family" not the "Goods and Services" otherwise there is a fee which comes out of their end, and it may trigger for profit tax reporting on the receiver's end

Good progress has been made, as you can see from the photos and especially the video below. There are quite a few other videos on this YT channel also.

Here is the latest email from Fr Onuorah explaining the current state of the building works and what is required to get to the next stage. Please help if you can:

Greetings in Our Lord Jesus Christ my dear brother. Happy eve of the feast of All Saints. To the glory of God, and with the help of your generous donations we have been able to reach this stage in the Church building construction as I sent you in the pictures. We are eternally grateful to God and to you for your generous donations which have carried us along in the work. We are praying for you everyday both in the Holy Masses and other prayers. God will continue to bless you and reward you eternally through Jesus Christ Our Lord. Amen. 
However, Our funds have finished at this point. We are grateful for the much it was able to cover so far. Thanks be to God now and forever. And thank you a million times for your assistance. God bless you 🙏
Meanwhile, at this stage now, when the remaining part of the Church is levelled with blocks by Monday next week please God, then the carpenter will finish covering the continuation pillars with planks/boards for casting with concrete, then we go over to another lintel chaining with Iron rods and decking the gallery with Iron rods and concrete. The estimated cost of the Iron rods for the next lintel chaining and decking of the gallery is about US$5,500. 
It will take about 300 bags of cement to cast the lintel chaining with concrete and decking of the gallery which will cost about US$2,500. The chippings stones about 50 tonnes, woods/planks, nails and bamboos to be used for the decking and lintel chaining will cost about US$2,500. 
Thank you so much for your assistance so far. 
May all the Saints in heaven whom we are celebrating tomorrow 1st November surround you all the days of your life and keep interceding for you that you may become one of the Saints in heaven hereafter. Amen. 
Be assured of our continued prayers for you. 
God bless you. 
Yours in Jesus, Mary and Joseph, 
Rev. Fr Joseph Onuorah.

The latest from Fr Onuorah:

We prayed the Rosary procession into our new Church building under construction, it rained small and we were praying the Rosary joyfully under the rain. All to Jesus, through Mary Our Mother. God bless.

Fr Joseph Onuorah.

Look at the amazing progress!

Today's email from Fr Onuorah:

Good day my dear brother. Hope you are fine today. The above two pictures is the  level of work today. Please if anyone has few Masses the person can send let me use the stipend to pay for the bags of cement I bought on credit and the workers who are on my neck now please 🙏. But the Mass will be offered as from next year. 
Thank you so much. 
God bless. 
Fr Joseph Onuorah. 


I have just sent him some funds to pay the creditors, but more is needed to continue the work. Can you help? But not through stipends, because Father had already told me a few days earlier that he could not accept anymore this year. He is here requesting them only out of desperation. See previous posts for details on how to give.

I'm just re-posting this request of Fr Onuorah's from above in the hope that someone may be inspired to help. I've posted material in the past and had people message me to tell me they missed it and only saw it months later. So here's hoping (and praying!):
