Dingle Church

The Dingle Catholic Church was built in 1886. This church of Baroquial style is made of limestone from Bulabog Mountain, painstakingly carried by the early parishioners through narrow, steep and dangerous trails to the present site.

    Hi Neighbors, The picturisque and impressive sight brings back happy memories for me. I was baptized in this church went to Mater Carmeli just left of it. there was a small library to it’s left that I frequent. I would hop my way to school and back in front of it everyday till college. I’m a true blue Dingle-anon, of the Espino /Muyco family.

    It feels good to see pictures of Dingle again. I was only 17 years old when I left Dingle. I will go home soon and I wish to see all my friends and relatives again. Hello to Chile Bayson, my best friend. Please email me at doremi_gm@yahoo.com. Anyone who knows her , please forward to her this message. I have no more news of her. The last time, I heard from her was 2 years ago. Best regards to all Dingleanon.

    i like the antiquity of the church…
    but the flaming red canopy doesnt fit!!
    who is the designer? does it match the age/era of the church?

    and the lamp posts– the blue top is like an icing on the cake..

    comment lang.
    taga dingle man ako!

    i simply love our church bisan ari malang ko sa iloilo. dingleanons come & go but she is always there to welcome us everytime magsulod na kita sa banwa. she always move me to tears how our ancestors made her. dapat during fiesta ma-include man sa pagpangamuyo ang tanan nga pumuluyo nga nagpatigayon tukod sng simbahan. kun indi sa ila wala sya subong. a beautiful memoir, painful but glorious era. to tas causing ganiyu-your old house at muyco st. is a reflection of 1960’s era, kanuyon hay way dun may nagatake care gid abi. musta ang utod mo nga si tweety?i was 10-12 yrs old, siya at that time mga 20-22 na, my idol kay kun magsimba gani class & beauty gid upod si mommy mo & ang laon (forgive me). classmate na si inday majella, marella nga nurses man. hope you could visit dingle again!
