The Roman Catholic church dedicated to the Good Shepherd or Jesus Christ was built in the late 1980s. It stands between the market and two road-junction. The structure of the church can be described as a Zigami Chevron-shaped structure.
The church has undergone many changes in the past few years, one of the notable changes is the construction of the Blessed Sacrament and the wall behind the altar made of strong marble. It is built next to the Sarita Lawns Convent. The Church and the Convent share the same space, except that it has been separated by a wall. At the left hand side of the church is an empty marshland. There are a lot of controversies surrounding this empty marshland plot, one of which was based on a dispute with the owner, who now wants to finalize a design plan for a building. Of late the marshland has been converted to a barren land. The market and the church together form an L-shaped structure securing this plot.
