Founded in 1687. Father Agustin dela Magdalena was the first cura assigned at the Parish. It is originallly chapel of bamboo and nipa.

Reconstructed in 1960 with deep affection by the town postas (able-bodied men rendering the annual polo of forced labor) under the direction of Miguel Guanco and Alcuacil Mayor Alfonso Garcia. Improved in 1853 by Fr. Joaquin de Coria, a talented priest-engineer designed and built the high belfry and the gorgeous cupola, with the Pagsanjeños supplying the labor, materials and funds.

The transept of the church was constructed in 1892. It was began by Fr. Serafin Linares and completed by Fr. Cipriano Bac. The Church was damaged during the World War II.
