Archdiocese of Kuala Lumpur

In 1903, French missionary Father Emile Terrien was appointed in charge of the Catholic Chinese community in Kuala Lumpur and he purchased land in Brickfields to build a church, according to the website of the Church of the Holy Rosary. The architect Mr Lambert designed the new church together with Father Terrien and the bishop Rene Fee of Malacca laid the foundation stone in 1903.

The church is built in the French neo-Gothic style according to the wishes of the founder Father Terrier and includes five beautiful stained glass windows depicting the Mystery of the Rosaries which were fortunately saved during the Japanese occupation. More stained glass windows were added later which are a striking feature of the church which encourages visitors to visit to view them.

In 1953 the church was decorated with Queen Elizabeth II symbols to celebrate her coronation but otherwise Chinese characters are prominent on the facade.

Since it was built the church has undergone numerous expansions to accommodate the growing Chinese Catholic community.

The Church of Our Lady of Fatima, a Catholic church, is more than 40 years old. The Church that began in July 1963 to cater mainly for the Tamil speaking faithful living in Brickfields, Bangsar, Pantai Dalam and Old Klang Road areas, today pastors to all Catholics living in these areas. With the number of housing projects that have developed within the Parish boundary in the last 40 years, the Catholic population has increased. The Parish of Our Lady of Fatima was instrumental in initiating the building of a Church in Puchong to cater for the spiritual and pastoral needs of a large Catholic population in that area.

The Church of Our Lady of Fatima was officially Blessed and Consecrated in July 1963 by the late Tan Sri Dominic Vendargon, Archbishop Emeritus, the then Archbishop of Kuala Lumpur. The administrator of the Parish was the late Rev Fr Noel Clement until the appointment of the late Rev Fr Swaminathan as the first resident Parish Priest in August 1963, It was he who established the administrative office in the Parish with the books for the registration of Baptisms, Deaths and Marriages. This was the beginning of the formal growth of the Parish.

The Our Lady of Lourdes Church in Klang, established in 1928, became an essential spiritual and social anchor for migrant communities such as the Chinese, Indians, and Filipinos in British colonised Malaya. The church provided crucial support during their settlement, with many migrants working in industries like tin unloading, coffee plantations, and serving as entertainers for the British.

Mass was initially held in a wooden chapel until 1923 when Reverend Father John Baptists Souhait was appointed to oversee the spiritual needs of Klang's Catholics. His architectural background influenced the church's design, inspired by the Gothic-styled church in Lourdes, France.

Funds for the church's construction were raised from various sources, including migrant parishioners, British civil servants, and the Paris Foreign Missions. The Church, Grotto, and Parochial House were completed in 1928. The church also houses a striking statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary and a man-made grotto, both key points of attraction.

The church served not only as a spiritual guide but also a community hub, particularly for those seeking better job prospects. Today, the Our Lady of Lourdes Church is a historical landmark in Selangor, attracting numerous tourists, and remains a significant part of the local community's religious and social fabric.
