The management board of Quoi Dien-Hoa Loi Caodai Parish under the Tay Ninh Caodai Church located in Ben Tre province’s Thanh Phu district held on August 4 the inauguration ceremony for the parish’s new oratory.
Attending the event were Cardinal President of the Tay Ninh Caodai Church’s Executive Committee Thượng Tám Thanh, Principal Archbishop of the Caodai Church Hương Đắc, and large numbers of dignitaries, deacons and believers of Caodai parishes in Ben Tre and neighboring provinces.
Guests at the event included Vice Chairman of the provincial Religious Affairs Committee Nguyễn Hồng Quân.
As reported at the ceremony, the original oratory was built in 1942. In early 2015, the local government approved for the parish to reconstruct its oratory. Up to now, the new oratory has been completed at the construction cost of over 7.1 VND billion and 11,926 working days contributed by Caodai followers and sponsors.
