THE CHURCHES OF BATANGAS: Part Three

            The province of Batangas is composed of three cities and 31 municipalities. As an  ecclesiastical circumscription, the province is an archdiocese with its seat in Lipa.  It has 61 parishes divided into seven vicariates.  In two previous posts, I  visited fourteen of the towns of Batangas.

The other towns include the following: San Pascual, Balayan, Tuy, Nasugbu, Lian, Calatagan, Lemery, San Luis, San Jose, Mataasnakahoy, Balete, Malvar,  Tanauan, Talisay, Laurel, Agoncillo, San Nicolas, Padre Garcia, Rosario and Taysan.
