Cordova was called Langao in the past, and it comprised of Baguinguing, Isian, Naclapan, and Sipitan. It was annexed to Tigbauan by virtue of Act No. 719 on April 4, 1903.
The San Raphael the Archangel Chapel in Cordova Sur was built in 1935. In its early history, the church had a resident priest such as Fr. Elueterio Carton and Fr. Ryan Fernando Teves, and in the years it did not have any priest it was administered by Tigbauan Parish.
When the cause for canonization of St. Pedro Calungsod was elevated, he was thought to have hailed from Barosong, Tigbauan. Hence, he was chosen as the patron of the parish when it was canonically erected in a religious service led by Most Rev. Jose Romeo O. Lazo, D.D. on April 23, 2021, becoming the 95th parish of the archdiocese. Fr. Carlo M. Noquez is its first parish priest, and its parish community covers ten barangays in the town of Tigbauan.
