Acharapakkam
A small church located along the GST Highway 95km from Chennai, India. Most of the people are Hindus who come here for looking for help to overcome the hardships they face in their day-to-day lives.
The roof, made of coconut leaves, was replaced in 2011 and now has reached the end of its lifespan of about two years. It has developed leaks due to the harsh weather breaking down the coconut leaves from the outside. Now they are looking for help to fix their roof and to find a long-term solution by putting a metal roof over the church.

Mud has been used as mortar to build the short brick walls which help support the roof.
The wooden beams that support the roof have been eaten by termites.
We will post pictures of the finished project for the Acharapakkam church.
