The Catholic Church of Pagsanjan , Laguna. This church is owning a school that is located beside it. The church is big , white painted, has a large gate facing the national highway and has its extension for some events like for receptions. The church is full of statues from the characters in the bible.

Inside, there are angel statues right after the door emphasizing the hallway up to the main altar. The altar is considered as a sacred place, kneeling in front of it is giving respect for the Roman Catholics.

There is a boutique in the side of the church after you go in and also a stairs up way to the large bell. But before that you will see a place for the choir when there is a mass. Then you will reach the top and see the large bell or so called kampana, 4 small bells in side and the big one in the middle and in top of it is a large mass of bats hiding from the sun.

There is also a place where you can see the precious and relic stone in front of Mama Mary's statue from Mexico, they believe that it is a part of the place where Mama Mary once stood up. And  in the back of the statue is a crown and three mitres worn by popes. The crown is silver in color and it was like shining.

A church doesn’t need to be beautiful,  a church needs a heart that is willing to serve His God.
