The shrine is consecrated to the pilgrim image of Blessed Virgin Mary of Guibang.

It comes alive every year on July when religious pilgrims visit to offer prayers during its feast day.

While the construction was ongoing, liturgical services and devotional activities were held in the adjacent Poor Clare Monastery.

Built on the same location, the church was expanded from its original 750-square-meter floor area to 1,100 square meters.

On February 3, 2023, Papal nuncio Archbishop Charles Brown joined the clergy of the Diocese of Ilagan in the blessing and dedication of the newly rebuilt and larger pilgrim church.
