In 1930, Arthur Ralston Sr. and his young wife from Cebu, Aurelia Cabatuan, built the San Antonio Chapel, since they believed that their extraordinary fortune came through the intercession of St. Anthony de Padua. The community earlier named Bodega became known as San
Antonio. On October 12, 1970, Mary and Arthur Jr., the Ralston children, took the chapel under their care. In September 1981, Jaime Cardinal L. Sin suggested that a parish church be built in San Antonio. Fr. Milanio Raymundo celebrated his first masses at the San Antonio
Chapel on Sto. Nino Street. Later on, mass was celebrated in a garage on Montenegro Street, then at the Dona Loleng Hall in the Lingao compound. The search for a permanent church site ended when Dona Dolores Sanpedro-Lingao convinced he husband, Atty. Dionisio
Lingao, to donate to the parish their property at West Riverside cor. Lincoln St.
