It's
my
first
time
to
see
this
rare
kind
of
parish
church
compared
to
the
usual
churches
I've
visited;
I'll
probably
recommend
this
to
my
SDW
and
HJM
brothers
and
sisters.
Nestled
inside
the
city
landscape
of
Las
Piñas
is
the
charming
nook
that
is
called
Nature
Church
or
Parish
of
Mary
Immaculate
Church.
This
quiet
spiritual
sanctuary
is
a
sprawling
area
of
natural
beauty.
Inside,
the
church
grounds
are
full
of
tall,
shady
trees
and
small
stream
flowing
alongside
the
San
Lorenzo
de
Manila
Chapel.
In
fact,
the
church
is
situated
in
a
half-century
old
mango
orchard,
and
everything
is
well
preserved.
None
of
the
trees
were
cut
down
during
the
construction
of
the
church,
and
most
of
the
materials
used
in
building
it
were
cast-off
construction
materials.
The
church
itself
is
full
of
all
things
inspired
by
nature.
This
nipa-hut
open-air
structure
has
a
high
ceiling
that
is
made
out
of
wood,
anahaw,
and
other
native
materials.
The
ceiling
is
peppered
with
hanging
dove
décors
that
are
actually
lighting
fixtures
made
out
of
Capiz
shells,
which
add
to
its
charm.
The
church’s
altar
is
made
out
of
driftwood
and
marble—both
natural
materials
as
well.
A
big
statue
of
Jesus
was
put
in
a
prominent
position
near
the
altar
to
complete
this
place
of
prayer
and
meditation.
