Sub-Parish Church of Sto. Cristo

The Sub-Parish Church of Sto. Cristo features traditional Filipino architectural elements with straight lines and a symmetrical facade that defines its exterior structure.

The church grounds date back to 1881 when Don Julian Buyson signed a deed of donation, leading to the construction of the first chapel using nipa and bamboo materials.

The church maintains strong connections to local traditions through its annual feast day on May 3, which includes religious processions and community celebrations.

Regular mass services take place throughout the week, with additional ceremonies held during special religious occasions under the guidance of the Sub-Parish Pastoral Council.

Local faith healers conducted spiritual healing sessions at this location during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, establishing a tradition that shaped its identity.
