    (Roman Catholic Diocese of San Jose de Antique)

     Short Historical Account

    It was not until September 18, 1581 when the Augustinian mission was fully and officially
    established in the village of Hamtic, which is with a Royal Decree making it a parish or
    putting up a religious house or convent under FR. MIGUEL DE FIGUEROA, OSA and
    this marked the birth of Christianity in Antique. In June 19, 1962, Antique became an
    independent ecclesiastical province and on that same day, the MOST REV. CORNELIUS
    DE WIT, MHM was consecrated and installed in the capital town of San Jose and became
    the first prelate of the newly erected Prelature. In 1981, the Local Church of Antique
    celebrated its 400 years of Christianity. A big celebration was made in the Parish of Sta.
    Monica, being the seat of Christianity in the Diocese. One of the remarkable benefits of this
    celebration according to Bishop de Wit is “Being refreshed in awareness of our own history.
    This rich heritage has a message for us and that we are challenged to remain faithful as
    Antiqueños and Christians in the years to come.” The Local church have celebrated its
    Golden Jubilee last 2012 and now, after 8 years of Bishop Lazo serving the church, Most
    Rev. Marvyn Maceda was installed as the 5th Bishop of Diocese of San Jose de Antique.
