Mary Immaculate Parish (Las Piñas) | church, Roman Catholic church

 church, Roman Catholic church

A showcase of Filipino architecture. From the concept of former parish priest Fr. Pierino Rogliardi and executed by noted architect Francisco "Bobby" Mañosa and landscapist Linggoy Alvarez, a truly refreshing and unique Nature's Church was erected in 1988. Peaceful and quiet amidst a canopy of trees, God is indeed within whispering distance. Capiz doves fly high above the congregation sitting on cut logs and boulders placed in harmony with the rest of the landscape. Also features meeting rooms and chapels similarly built and an ossuary/columbary as a sacred final resting place for believers.

The roof burned down on New Year's Eve 2007, at the height of the festive celebrations, due to a wayward kwitis (firework). Restoration is ongoing; meanwhile, Masses are held at the Fr Pierino Multipurpose Hall. Reopening and blessing of the newly-renovated Church will be held on 08 September 2007, Mama Mary's Birthday!

Mary Immaculate Parish Special School was located at Agro homes I, Moonwalk Village Las Pinas City.

Masses are held here every Mondays at 6:00AM, Tuesdays to Saturdays at 6:00AM and 6:00PM, and Sundays at the following times: 7:00, 8:30, 10:00 (all in the morning), 4:00, 5:15, 6:30, and 7:45 (all in the afternoon and evening). Baptisms are held every Sunday at 11:00AM.
