History
The church was declared an independent parish in 2009.
Architecture
This contemporary church is at the intersection of Enerio St. and Mansasa Dampas Road in Barangay Dampa. Its striking architectural facet is its sharp-angled roof of three gables—an image that recalls Our Lady of Lourdes Church in Gallares Street. The gabled roofs are overlapping, each bigger than the one before it from the entrance to the apse.
By the entrance, the roof covers over a sufficient area for two rows of pews; in the process it has effectively extended the nave to include the outside spaces of the church. Entryway is through sliding glass doors and its walls are of glass too, on which inscribed in cursive the name of the parish. Above is a textured, tiled lintel.
Its pediment is a huge stained glass window.
Celebration
The feast day of the patron, St. Ignatius of Loyola, falls on the last day of July.
