The Nuestra Señora de la Natividad Parish (also Our Lady's Nativity Parish) commonly known as Pangil Church is a Roman Catholic church in Natividad, Pangil, Laguna, Philippines. The statue of the pregnant Virgin Mary (locally known as Nuestra Señora de la O) is said to be a gift from King Carlos III of Spain.^[1] The current parish priest is Father Gaylord Reyes.^[2]

History

Pangil was founded as a visita or hermitage by Franciscan friars Juan de Plasencia and Diego de Oropesa in 1579 and it was administered by the nearby Parish of Lumban due to lack of priests.^[3] The first church dedicated to the Nativity of Mary was built out of cane. In 1611, a stone church and convent was built under the direction of Father Gonzalo del Roble. Restoration of the church's woodwork and improvement of the convent was done by Father Lucas Fernandez in 1711. The church was remodeled in 1749 to 1751 by Father Luis de Nambroca. Based on the records of Father Felix Huerta, the church has also a stone chapel dedicated to Saint Mark the Evangelist and Saint Anthony Abad.^[4]
