St. Joseph Marello Parish
diocese of antipolo
The Oblates of St. Joseph have been serving the faithful of the City of Antipolo since 1978 through the administration of St. Anthony of Padua Parish.
In grateful recognition of their pastoral service, the bishop of the Diocese of Antipolo, Most. Rev. Francisco de Leon, DD, entrusted a new parish to the care of the Province. Furthermore, he dedicated the patronage of the parish to St. Joseph Marello, the Founder of the Congregation.
​
The new parish was culled from the Mother Parish of Antipolo Cathedral/National Shrine of Our Lady of Peace And Good Voyage.
​
The canonical dedication was held on November 25, 2017, on the occasion of the anniversy of the Founder's canonization. Rev. Fr. Rex Alday, OSJ was also installed as the first parish priest with Rev. Rafael Neil Hernandez, OSJ as his pastoral assistant.
