TANAY, RIZAL – In a significant step to elevate its digital presence, the San Ildefonso de Toledo Parish officially launched its newly developed website on August 11.

This initiative, started on March 2024 which is driven and funded by Congressman Dino Tanjuatco, aims to establish an engaging online platform that serves as both an informative gallery and bulletin board, providing vital information to both parishioners and visitors about the church’s activities and heritage.

The launch event featured Mr. Paolo Tanjuatco, the head of Fortify Marketing and the chief developer behind the website. During his message, Tanjuatco highlighted the transformative impact of digital tools for religious institutions.

“For our parishioners, the primary goal of our website is to showcase and pay tribute to the architectural beauty of the Tanay church and the cultural significance of the town of Tanay. It is also designed to offer comprehensive information for those seeking to learn more about our church and its revered patron saint,” Tanjuatco explained.

He further elaborated on the website’s role in amplifying the parish’s efforts to achieve recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

“With this enhanced online presence, we hope to gain international attention and support for our bid. The website will significantly contribute to making the church more visible and accessible to a global audience,” he added.

The newly launched website is equipped with various features aimed at enriching the parish experience. It includes services such as online prayer intentions or Pamisa, live streaming of mass coverage, and a repository of the latest announcements and news articles about both the parish and the diocese.

Additionally, the site offers access to weekly catechesis, prayers, and testimonials dedicated to San Ildefonso de Toledo, alongside a gallery of photos capturing recent parish events.

Rev. Fr. Ferdinand Delatado expressed deep appreciation for the support from sponsors and developers.

“The successful launch of this website is a testament to the collective effort and dedication of everyone involved. Without their invaluable contributions, this project would not have come to fruition,” he said.

The website is now being handled by the parish website time for weekly uploads of news, updates, and catechesis.
