This church, is a very unusual church, and looks more like a cement tent and some locals like to even call it St.Cement. It was called the Sacred Heart church and was a Roman Catholic. The building opened in 1971, many construction workers and others warned that in would fall apart but the church did not listen and still continued the construction. The building is seven stories and the building used to be able to hold 450 people. In 1980 cement blocks were found on the ground that had been falling from the walls and ceilings. The concrete started crumbling and was closed in 1997 when it was declared unsafe and they didn't have enough money for renovations. It was a very unpopular opinion because the residents of the town wouldn't be able to go to church until they found somewhere to relocate too. History From:
