[2] On August 22, 1979, Jaime L. Cardinal Sin made the whole area of Talon, which comprises 40 subdivisions, into one parish under the name Mary Immaculate.
Niño Chapel in Moonwalk Village, Las Piñas, but as the community and population grew, its later parish priest, Fr Pierino Rogliardi, saw the need for a larger church structure.
Hence, the beginning of the building of the "Nature Church" complex, which would showcase Filipino organic architecture as championed by the chosen architect, National Artist Francisco "Bobby" Mañosa.
[5] The altar is a rough-finished coral marble slab resting on two madre cacao driftwood pedestals.
The flooring of the altar section, similar to that of the aisles, is interplay of wood tiles from tree trunks cut crosswise and white pebble washout.
It is ornamented with greens of carabao grass, wild bougainvillea, pakpak lawin, and a collection of other fern varieties grown on driftwoods.
A self-propelling firework called "kwitis" (rocket) ignited a fire at the roofing of the church along with its electrical and audio system while the wooden seats were scorched with falling embers.
Since its establishment, Mary Immaculate Parish has been administered by diocesan priests affiliated with the Focolare Movement.
The parish also established housing projects for the poor, notably Emmaus Village in Barangay Talon Singko.
