One
of
the
best
church.
It
doesn't
matter
that
this
church
is
too
small
and
too
short
to
upgrade
as
minor
basilica.
The
thing
is
the
characteristics
of
a
minor
basilica
which
exist
in
this
church.
For
me,
San
Isidro
Labrador
Parish
of
Batangas
City
is
one
of
the
churches
in
Batangas
province
which
is
possible
to
be
upgraded
as
minor
basilica.
I'm
not
joking,
I'm
serious.
Why?
How?
Here
are
the
explanations:
San
Isidro
Labrador
Parish
of
Batangas
City
has
a
perfect
location
because
it
was
located
in
rural
part
of
the
city.
When
we
say
rural,
one
of
the
word
that
comes
in
our
mind
was
"farmer",
as
in,
a
farmer
who
works
in
farmland
which
is
technically
located
at
rural
area.
San
Isidro
Labrador
(English:
Saint
Isidore
the
Farmer)
is
patron
saint
of
all
farmers.
One
more
and
the
most
thing.
This
is
the
main
characteristic
of
minor
basilica
which
exists
in
this
church.
Despite
of
the
church
aisle
(or
entrance
procession
from
the
church's
main
entrance
to
altar)
for
being
too
short,
entrance
rites
of
7:00AM
Sundays
mass
take
too
long
with
nonstop
entrance
song
until
the
priest
is
now
ready
just
like
7:15AM
and
4:30PM
Sundays
mass
of
Minor
Basilica
of
Immaculate
Conception
Parish
in
same
city.
The
reason
why
entrance
rites
take
too
long
is,
aside
from
circling
the
altar
while
smoking
the
altar
with
inscent,
the
priest
also
travels
to
4
images
of
saints
beside
the
altar
(2
on
left,
2
on
right)
and
many
more
for
inscent
smoking
one-by-one.
While
in
Minor
Basilica
of
Immaculate
Conception
Parish,
this
church
is
too
long,
making
entrance
rites
of
7:15AM
and
4:30PM
Sundays
mass
take
too
long.
And
that's
all
the
reasons
why
San
Isidro
Labrador
Parish
should
be
considered
for
upgrade
as
minor
basilica.
Minor
Basilica
of
San
Isidro
Labrador
Parish,
or
for
short
Basilica
of
San
Isidro
Labrador
Parish,
for
future.
As
of
now,
Batangas
has
2
minor
basilicas:
Minor
Basilica
of
Immaculate
Conception
Parish
in
Batangas
City
and
Minor
Basilica
of
Saint
Martin
de
Tours
in
Taal.
