JANIUAY CHURCH

To complete the set of historical churches in Panay which I found on the page of the PLDT phone directory, I visited Janiuay FOR THE FIRST TIME(showing na) last Sunday. Needless to say that there are more historical churches aside from those churches that PLDT featured. Pepe even told me that with those historical churches, he thought that Spaniards stayed long in Panay which I agreed. By the way, Pepe is originally from Janiuay but he is recently working in Downunder.










Even in its ruined state, the ancient church of Janiuay overshadows the new church built beside it.























What is left indicates that the church was conceived as a Neoclassical structure with engaged columns and pilasters of coral stone alternating with clean brick walls ornamented by arched opening.









The Hiligaynon version of THE TEN COMMANDMENTS.

The new built church beside the old church





























The adoration chapel













Images I saw between the old and the new church
