Hung Phong Caodai parish under the Correction-Path Caodai Church in Ben Tre province’s Giong Tom district solemnly held a ceremony to inaugurate its new main worshipping temple on February 28.

Attending the ceremony included Archbishop Vice Chairman of the Correction-Path Caodai Church’s Executive Committee Thái Thuận Thanh and a large numbers of Caodai dignitaries and followers of the Church from localities.

Distinguished guests at the event included Vice Chairman of the provincial Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee Dương Phú Hưng and local authorities’ representatives.

Hung Phong Caodai oratory was first constructed in 1946 by bamboo materials on area of 12,000 m2 and it has undergone several restorations and repairs in 50 years of existence. In early 2018, Hung Phong Caodai oratory’s management board got the approval from local authorities for rebuilding its oratory so as to better meet the need of religious practices of Caodai followers in the locality.

As reported, the oratory’s main worshipping temple has been completed at the cost of over VND 2 billion.
