  • The St. Pancratius church I know is the one inside the Paco Park formerly Paco Cemetery. There is also a statue of St. Pancratius in the Our Lady of Grace Church at 11th Avenue, Caloocan City.
  • im still guessing is this the la loma church, kasi sa old photos ng manila noong spanish american war, ang la loma church ay church tlga at hindi sementeryo, isa p, asan dito ung arc na bubong o ung half spherical shape sa centro ng church? imagine panay front view palage nasa picture ung church but wheres the top and side view pics of the church, maybe its our own discovery if it is the church, and i know it was closed and not open to the public.
  • this is St. Pancratius Parish. The la loma chapel is the one located a little farther right. The parish is constructing a multi-purpose center at the back of the Church. If you want to help and donate, please call 361-6346.
  • Yes, Fr. Ong is one of the best priests in the Diocese of Kalookan. His homilies are full of stories about everyday living. From Pasig City, i would advise that you go through Shaw Blvd., then to C3 road, then at 5th Ave. Station of LRT, turn left. You will pass Baliwag transit terminal, then the Church will be on your left. They are still in the process of making the multi-purpose center. For those interested to donate, please call the parish office.
  • Peace! I can not remember anymore when was the last time i visited the church. But i never forget when the whole family used to hear mass every Sunday...1st mass @ 6am i guess... (when i was still a kid)and up to now, we can not still forget a very strict Parish Priest with very good homily. He's Fr. De Vera, he's the one who baptized us, me and my brother.And now, i guess i do have to go and visit the parish one of these days because i need to inquire on how to get a baptismal certificate (for marriage purposes) i saw there's a contact number....i hope it still exist so i may call first....whoever read this message, pls. let me know if there are other contact infos...thank u so much and God Bless luztenoso 02-3993648

  • Peace be with you! The birth of our Blessed Mother Mary is gradually coming. This day forms a link between the New and the Old Testament. It shows that Truth succeeds symbols and figures and that the New Covenant replaces the Old. Hence, all creation sings with joy, exults, and participates in the joy of this day. This is, in fact, the day on which the Creator of the world constructed His temple; the day on which by a stupendous project a creature becomes the preferred dwelling of the Creator. The universal church celebrates with this day the first dawning of redemption with the appearance in the world of the Savior's mother, Mary. In lieu of this our parish, St. Pancratius thru the Parish Pastoral Council will hold a Marian Exhibit on August 16-31 and Grand Marian Procession on September 6, 2014 with the theme : Mary- The Witness of Scripture : A Trajectory of Grace and Hope of the Laity. We are planning to make this festive occasion truly express our love and profound respect to our Blessed Mother whose unconditional love, spiritual guidance and protection strengthened our faith. At this early we are making some preparations to insure that the event will truly be more meaningful and more spiritually memorable. In the light of the aforementioned event, it is but imperative for the committee to prepare for its logistics that include, among others, the decorations of the church, karosa and for the venue of the exhibit, food, props, and streamers. For this end, we would like to seek for your benevolent financial support for this event. For your positive actions and generous contribution you may course thru the parish office you may look for Fidel Osio- Committee Head or contact him at 09466722077.

  • Father De Vera was very strict and grouchy. He will not give you an hostia if you are not wearing a veil. LOL When a child cry inside the church' he would say "Get that child out of here!" LOL He was strict but he was right and I liked him. I really miss those days when all us kids, my siblings and neighbors go to church every Sunday morning and play and run around in the cemetery next to it after. Time changed.
