The Parish of Saint John Of The Cross was established on March 18, 1992. It’s territory includes the whole civil boundaries of Barangays Pembo and Rizal in the City of Makati. The Parish Church is located at the corner of Hasmin and Sampaguita Streets in Pembo. On July 30, 1999 a parish resolution effecting the start of the construction of a new Parish Church was passed and approved by the members of the Parish Pastoral Council. The cornerstone of the new building was laid on August 2, 1999. The occasion was graced by the presence of His Eminence Jaime Cardinal Sin, Archbishop of Manila. Despite the heavy rains, parishioners crowded the Parish Church grounds to witness the momentous event. It was an afternoon of nostalgia and anticipation as parishioners and guests took a final look at the existing Church structure. This modest building has been a place of worship and solace for more than three decades.

There is a lot that happens around the world we cannot control. We cannot stop earthquakes, we cannot prevent droughts, and we cannot prevent all conflict, but when we know where the hungry, the homeless and the sick exist, then we can help.
