About Mary The Queen Parish

---

Mary the Queen Parish envisions to be a community of active and faithful followers of Jesus Christ, striving to live the fullness of the Gospel and to make the Eucharist the center of their lives through the intercession and inspiration of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Aware of its role in the salvific mission of the Holy Church and of its special apostolic mission concerning the Chinese Filipinos, the Mary the Queen Parish community shall promote and foster the total Christian formation of its parishioners by involving itself in the four general areas of activities, namely:

1.  Deepening the faith of those within the Church;

2.  Preaching the Gospel to those outside the Church;

3.  Caring for its parishioners through mutual concern and service, and

4.  Sharing its material and spiritual resources with those in need.

Mary the Queen Parish was founded in 1954 by Jesuit missionaries who were expelled from China.  The Parish was initially established in Pasay City and was eventually transferred to its present location in Greenhills, San Juan City in 1964.
