El 29 de octubre de 1838 se inaugura la Parroquia San Juan Bautista. Anterior a esto las misas se ofrecían en ranchos del area. Durante los años las estructuras de la iglesia y la plaza han sido reconstruidas y remodeladas en varias ocasiones. Aunque no fueron construidas bajo la administración de nuestro fundador Juan De Rivera Y Santiago, es importante reconocer que este terreno donde hoy se encuentra el pueblo y por ende edificaciones muy importantes como la iglesia y la alcaldía, era originalmente su terreno propio. Rivera Y Santiago donó el mismo para que se pudiera allí construir el nuevo pueblo. On October 29, 1838, the Saint John Baptist parish was inaugurated in the town's main plaza.
