1. The church isn't small. If you're an architect, you should know. (No offense meant)

2. Anthropometrically, 1-human is roughly 1sqm.

3. 3,275sqm is a huge proposed built space.

4. Pile or pier foundation is the most expensive type of foundations.

5. Due to the proposed height, at least, 40N/mm slump strength needed.

6. Aesthetically, the concept is cool. Not just Catholic inspired but Jesus's lifestyle inspired.

6a. The 1st crest region explains the birth of Jesus. His rise with his disciples. Miracles...

6b. The middle rim explains the persecution of Jesus Christ, Our Lord. Being crucified. Dead. Buried.

6c. The pinnacle crest. Meaning his resurrection and ascension to Heaven. The concept is cool. Location of the cross is cool but would have imagined a replica image of praying Jesus or interceding Jesus, seated on the Throne. Perhaps in synthetic gypsum, illuminate cast, but huge, placed on the final crest of the atrium.

It's a lovely design metamorphosis.

We need libraries, skills acquisition centres, industries, etc.

No, the most beautiful church is in your heart.

Mr Sanctimonious, they are talking about physical structure here.

If it's Winners Chapel they post here now, all of you will be shouting Hallelujah. Bunch of empty hypocrites.

Why wont we have the most beautiful company to employ our armies of unemployed youth which are potential time bomb!

big churches everywhere and people re complaining of unemployment. u use ur own scarce resources to build church/mosque and u will run to Europe for greener pasture on d land of those who used their funds for productive purposes. let's keep receiving ourselves in africa

bodee:
waste of resources. I believe the money could be channeled to productive sectors.

productive sector, namely?

Not bad


but I can't get over the goose bumps I had bypassing this one months ago on the island.

vintage masterpiece

I was in awe of the building that I didn't even take any pictures. Had to screen grab later from IG.


This should be a landmark tho

That's the Cathedral Church of Christ at the Marina/Odunlami Street junction.

It is an Anglican church hence the area is called CMS (Church Missionary Society) after the Anglican church society responsible for evangelism during the colonial period.

You should also visit Holy Cross Cathedral (a Roman Catholic Cathedral) on Catholic Mission Street, opposite City Hall (another landmark on the Island).

Probably the most exquisite astounding wonderful attractive & beautiful. But it's not the outer beauty, but what does it have to impact to those that will fellowship inside, how will it groom & change them to God. We all pray they used it for real purpose,which is to serve God in spirit & in truth.

True, spirits don't die...




I can hear that same spirit that possessed Judas Iscariot speaking again!



Spirits live through all generations indeed!

Why do we spend fortune in building places of worship why many are poor?

Go to Europe and see simple ancient stone cathedrals with beautiful interiors that costs just a fraction of this edifice and well maintained

Why can't we do simple things instead of gigantic buildings just to claim the biggest.

The church in my university town in Scotland is a stone cathedral with artistic in nature and natural yet very aesthetic in appearance.

Nigerian should learn to be modest inn things of ostentation.

When aesthetic buildings start yielding Forex profit I hope you would complain. Anything that worth something, must be paid for.

do u know how many productive sectors the Catholic Church have put money in?
have u had of catholic aid, veritas etc. u can got to bornu and see for yourself.

the church is not ur government, she is not the reason for ur problems get ur PVC.

Lastly, those who Contribute the money ain't complaining shey some people spend there own money on alcohol and booze.

ekestic1976:


Say, You're doomed; not "we"!

u dey mind den?
they mistake the church for their useless government.
the Catholic Church have hundreds of schools and hospitals in the south east alone. most of our parents were schooled in mission schools until the useless governments ceased them.

Let's keep building churches, while the rest of the sane world are building industries.........

Young man, this church is not gonna be built with ur money or government money
Individuals contributed for it. I see no reason for this ur comments

Younger man, can't I make my point? Has my freedom of expression been withdrawn?

Those individuals could form a consortium, build industries and grow a nation....... We have more than enough churches ...... It's about time a legislation is brought to start merging churches and getting rid of others, so the sites can be used to empower a nation .......

Younger man, with this few points of mine, I hope you have a change of opinion.......

awesome

Young man! U are also an individual. Collate with like minds like u and form a consortium and build sth similar for government. Since u now hv the power to tell people how to spend their hard earned money. Spend urs fixing the road in ur village. Dig borehole in every house in ur street too.

Most times people like u find it so easy to tell people where to channel their money into, but cant even attempt same urself.

Younger man....... Don't we have enough church buildings presently ? Employing people under the guise of working in the Lord's vineyard, hence paying N0.000....... But the MOG gets a bumper wage + bumper benefits..........

If I had enough money, I would do as you stated...... In the absence of that, my commonsense would not fail me .......
