History of the churchA small chapel is already standing

in Hacienda Tambobong or now wecall Malabon. It was during the years of 1600. There was placed,

the picture of La PurisimaConcepcion.

In 1866, a big chapel was built for the Blessed Virgin Mary. But

unfortunately, some parts of the structure were destroyed due to a

massive earthquake in 1880. Fortunately, the picture of La Purisima

is not destroyed.

Because of the strong faith and unity of the Catholics, they successfully built a

much bigger, beautiful and a rightful placefor the Blessed Virgin Mary to live in. They

have done it within 6 years.In 1886, the church is built and bigger thanbefore. They also placed a Baptismal Font

and a marmol where they placed holy water. It was given by Dona Atancia Que

Pangco (November 1886).

PagtataloOn May 1899, an Ilokano priest is

banned from service because of only doing the works of a bishop. This priest

held his own religion called “Iglesia Filipina Independiente” o Aglipay and

there are some people living in Malabon that decided to join.

On November 26, 1902, the Visita Concepcion is conquered by the IglesiaFilipina Independiente (I.F.I.) and from

that day, they used it for their own faith.The Catholics fight for their right. After 4

years, they succeeded. The Supreme Court of the Philippines commanded to give to the Catholics all

that is rightfully theirs on November 24,1906.

The Visita of Dampalit, Muzon, Hulong Duhat

are returned on January 29, 1909.
