It was later abandoned for some years until 1611, when Fray Alonzo de Valdemoro, OFM, was appointed minister (Parish Priest). The first church was dedicated to the glorious precursor, St. John the Baptist, whose feast day is on June 24. Included in its jurisdiction were the visitas of Bactas and of Talisay was founded in 1654.[2]
