ABOUT US

Our Story of Faith

Our Lady of Fatima Parish was canonically established on July 27, 1992, in Barangay Bangkal, Makati City, under the St. Joseph the Worker Vicariate of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Manila.

Located at 1120 Gen. M. Capinpin St. corner Rodriguez, the parish stands within an urban residential community where the faithful gather for worship, prayer, and the celebration of the sacraments.

Dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary of Fatima, the parish draws inspiration from the 1917 apparitions in Portugal and their call to prayer, penance, and conversion.

Spiritual life is nurtured through the Eucharist, the sacraments, catechetical formation, the Holy Rosary, and Marian devotion, including the First Saturday devotion in honor of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

The feast of Our Lady of Fatima is celebrated every May 13, bringing the faithful together in prayer, fellowship, service, and devotion.

Today, the parish continues its mission of leading people closer to Christ through faith, prayer, service, and the maternal intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
