For more than four decades, Sto. Niño de Cebu Parish has been a place of worship, community, and devotion to the Holy Child Jesus. As host of the 42nd National and 8th International Cofradia Convention, the parish warmly welcomes delegates from across the Philippines and around the world to gather as one flock in faith.

JANUARY 27, 1985
The story of Sto. Niño de Cebu Parish began when the Augustinian Friars of the Province of Sto. Niño de Cebu solemnly enthroned the image of the Sto. Niño in the chapel of their community at Juana Complex in San Francisco, Biñan, Laguna.
What began as a community chapel devoted to the Holy Child gradually became a growing center of faith and devotion for the people of Biñan and neighboring communities.
JANUARY 1988
The Parish of Sto. Niño de Cebu was canonically erected during the term of Very Rev. Fr. Eusebio B. Berdon, OSA, Prior Provincial of the Augustinian Province of Sto. Niño de Cebu - formally establishing the community as a parish of its own.
2003 ONWARD
The parish's Altar Retablo was constructed in 2003 through the efforts of Rev. Fr. Edgar A. Polotan, OSA, Parish Priest from 2000 to 2005, and blessed by Most Rev. Camilo D. Gregorio, DD.
The church's present architectural form - including its distinctive twin belfries and patio - was later completed under Rev. Fr. Danilo C. Dagsaan, OSA, with the support of Most Rev. Leo M. Drona, DD, SDB of the Diocese of San Pablo and the Colegio San Agustin-Biñan community.
JANUARY 27, 2013
The parish celebrated its Silver Anniversary, marking twenty-five years since its canonical erection. The celebration honored not only the growth of the church structure, but the countless families, volunteers, and religious leaders who built a vibrant faith community around the Sto. Niño.
TODAY
Sto. Niño de Cebu Parish continues its mission of proclaiming Christ through worship, formation, service, and community life. Devotion to the Sto. Niño remains at the heart of parish life, inspiring generations of faithful to grow closer to God and to serve others with love and compassion.
As host of the 2027 Convention, the parish invites every delegate to experience not only a gathering, but a journey of faith rooted in the enduring love of the Holy Child.
As we prepare to gather under the theme “Sto. Niño: Shepherd of Humanity,” we welcome every chapter, every delegate, and every pilgrim who will join us for this special celebration of faith.
May our parish become a place of encounter, fellowship, prayer, and renewal as we journey together as one flock under the guidance of the Sto. Niño.
