Saint Isidore the Laborer Parish Church/ Simbahan ni San Isidro Labrador/ Church of Calauan (Calauan, Laguna)

About the Church: In 1860, the parishioners of Calauan built a church made of bricks and stone to honor its patron saints San Isidro Labrador and San Roque. Doña Eleuteria Punzalan financed its construction, while Don Paulino Gavino Oliva donated the church bell in 1867 (By Gil Miranda, A Laguna Travelogue)

My Visit to the Church: My first Visit to the Church of Calauan was in 2007, it was closed when i went there but today (July 18,2012) it was open. Now much has changed, except for the Color of the Church,  5 years ago it was colored light grey, this year (2012) they changed it to yellow. The Color of the church at present looks better as it is also the same color as the liceo beside it. Some trees are also gone, like the 2 trees beside the Statue of Christ. Aside from those no other drastic changes can be seen, though would not know if the interior of the church changed.
