About Pinoy Churches

To a Catholic, the most important structure in their life is either their Home or the Church. The Church like the home is a mute witness to many events in a Catholic’s Life. It is inside the walls of the Church where we are formally welcomed to the World. It is also inside the church wherein an important chapter in our life is started, the sacrament of Marriage. And it is also inside the church wherein we bid our last farewell to the world.

In the Philippines, there are thousands of Churches and Behind every church is a story, a History. Every Church has its own Architecture. A Church also boasts of Art Works of immense Value and each Church is our link to Antiquity. Everyday something important happens inside the Church, be it a sermon, communion, wedding, baptism, or even just the giving each other the sign of peace. And some churches even played a part in molding the country’s history. They are mute witnesses to our Country’s History. Though there are churches which were unfortunate enough to have been destroyed or burned, their importance still remains and will never be forgotten. 

I created this blog firstly as a repository of pictures of Churches in the Philippines that I have visited. And it’s role has evolved, it is now a guide to Churches not just in the Philippines, but also a guide to other churches in other Countries. In visiting the Churches, i was able to take almost every form of transportation there is, from Sedans, Vans, Pedicabs, Tricycles, Jeepneys, Mini Buses, Big Buses (Aircon and Non Aircon), Multi Cabs. I have yet to take a Horse or Carabao to get to a Church. And thru these Church visits I have grown to appreciate how beautiful the Philippines is.

I hope you will enjoy getting to know the Churches thru this Website as much as I have enjoyed visiting them personally.
