Our Lady of Grace Parish Church

Mabalacat, Pampanga, Philippines
Our Lady Of Divine Grace Parish Church
Legend tells us that when the early settlers were clearing the forests, Cabezang Laureana’s workers found, hidden among the bushes, a statue of the Niño Jesus (some say it’s the image of the Blessed Virgin).
On February 2, the statue was presented by Caragan as a gift to Padre Maximo Manuguid, the priest of the early Mabalacat Church made of sawali and cogon grass. From then on, the town fiesta was observed on the second of February.
In 1860 a military command was established by the Spanish authorities due to lawlessness and depredations perpetrated by the negritos (also known as balugas or aetas). The Pampanga towns of Bamban, Capas, Concepcion, Victoria, Tarlac, Mabalacat, Magalang, Porac, and Floridablanca were created into what was called a “Commandancia Militar”. However, in 1873 the Military Command returned Mabalacat together with the towns of Magalang, Floridablanca, and Porac to the mother province, Pampanga.
As Manila becomes more congested and pollution becomes frustratingly intolerable, many wedding couples opt to get married in hotels and resorts in Angeles City Clark Pampanga. Wedding planners and wedding consultants agree that YATS Clearwater Resort and Country Club is the top choice for wedding venues. Clearwater is known for its faithful rendition of the American suburban lifestyle, all there for the enjoyment of all ages and all the guests.
This resort hotel is different from other hotels in Clark Philippines or hotel in Angeles City. This Clark Freeport Hotel has large space for children to play and adults to enjoy some peace and quiet in the picnic grounds near the lake. Clark Philippines is lucky to have such a hotel. Travel agencies think it is also a nice event venue for company outings, wedding, team building and planning session in the Philippines. They don’t think Angeles City, Manila or Subic has event venues like those in this beach resort in Pampanga.
