It is under the jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Parañaque. The church enshrines the icon of Our Mother of Perpetual Help, and is one of the largest Marian churches in the Philippines.

Since 1958, the shrine has been au ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
