Parish of the Resurection an Aglipayan church

is a Christian denomination of the Catholic tradition in the form of a national church. Its separation from the Roman Catholic Church was proclaimed by the members of the first federation of labor unions in the country, the Union Obrera Democratica (UOD) in 1902. Isabelo de los Reyes was one of the initiators of the separation of the church and suggested that Gregorio Aglipay be the head of the church. It is also known as the Aglipayan Church, after its first Obispo Maximo, Gregorio Aglipay.

The Roman Catholic Church acted severely against the members of the Independent Church in 1902 for their actions in setting up an independent church. The Pope instructed the Archbishop of Manila to excommunicate those who initiated the separation.[3]
