Abstract
Catholic Building Professional Advisory Group (CaBPAG) was established in 2006 under Diocesan Building and Development Commission of the Catholic Diocese of Hong Kong. The CaBPAG was called for to assist building and maintenance of church and related facilities by involving the volunteer laity of building professionals. This study revealed that the laity integrated the spiritual activities and professional contribution in building projects within the CaBPAG. Such pursuit of spirituality can be understood within the context of worldwide development of spirituality since the 1960s and the local context of Hong Kong such as endangered religious freedom.
