The Archdiocesan Shrine of Santo Niño de Midsayap is a parish and shrine located in the municipality of [[Midsayap]], [[North Cotabato]] under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cotabato. The parish and shrine is under the management of the Missionary [[Oblates of Mary Immaculate]], a religious institute of pontifical right founded by Saint Eugene de Mazenod in France.

==History==
Santo Niño Parish was established in 1939 through the efforts of a French-Canadian missionary named Egide Beaudin who took the challenge of evangelizing the people of the vast territory of Cotabato delta which was populated by migrants from Visayas and Luzo.

"Father Gil", as Egide Beaudin was called by the people, learned the Cebuano language in just a few of his stays in the area. He went to far-flung barrios of the present [[Pigcawayan]], [[Libungan]], [[Alamada]], [[Midsayap]] and [[Aleosan]]. His most important and significant achievement was the construction of a church which was formally constructed and dedicated in time for the celebration of a fiesta in honor of its patron saint, Santo Nino.
