Located at the town proper, St. Andrew the Apostle Parish Church serves as the main Roman Catholic church of Norzagaray, Bulacan. The parish traces its establishment to 1787, placing it among the older churches founded during the Spanish colonial period in Bulacan. The church is dedicated to Saint Andrew the Apostle, who is also the patron saint of Norzagaray. Each year, the parish and town celebrate his feast on November 30, a date that coincides with the local town fiesta. 

Saint Andrew was one of the Twelve Apostles of Jesus Christ and is traditionally recognized as the first disciple to be called. He was the brother of Saint Peter and is known in Christian tradition for introducing others to Christ, including his own brother. He is often depicted with an X-shaped cross, associated with his martyrdom. In Catholic teaching and devotion, Saint Andrew is regarded as a model of humility, obedience, and missionary commitment, qualities that help explain his enduring significance as the patron saint of the town.

In its more recent history, the parish church experienced a major setback when a fire destroyed the structure on March 31, 1959. The church was subsequently rebuilt, with construction completed on October 2, 1961. The restored building was formally blessed on November 30, 1966, again aligning this milestone with the feast day of Saint Andrew.

When we attended Mass today, the celebration also marked the Groundbreaking Ceremony of the new main gate of the parish. The Holy Mass was officiated by the Bishop of Malolos, Most Rev. Dennis Villarojo.
