Calumpit Church: and the River-Born Story of a Town
In the heart of Calumpit, Bulacan, rises San Juan Bautista Parish Church, more commonly called Calumpit Church. You don’t need a guidebook to sense its weight. The moment you stand before it, there’s a feeling that this is not just a building people pass through — it’s a place that has watched people arrive, leave, return, and believe for more than four centuries.
