The Philippine Independent Church was the first religious order established in the early community. The religious presence was evidenced by the Chapel erected on the highest promontory now known as Salcedo’s Hill. The cross still stand today, the silent witness of the establishment of the now growing town.

“During Holy Week, which usually happens in March or April, Catholic devotees flock by the hundreds to Buntod Hill, a hilltop that’s the former site of the old Iglesia Filipina Independente Church. This is where devout Catholics perform their ritualistic station of the cross. ” (Source)
