- St. John the Baptist Parish Church (Filipino: Simbahan ng Parokya ni San Juan Bautista), commonly known as Calamba Church, is the oldest Roman Catholic church in Calamba, Laguna, Philippines under the Roman Catholic Diocese of San Pablo. It is located adjacent to Rizal Shrine and is known as the christening site of José Rizal.
Jesuit Missionaries in 1757 purchased a big portion of land called Hacienda de San Juan for their missions but the parish was only established in 1779 by the Franciscan Friars upon gaining independence from the parochial church of Cabuyao (formerly known as Tabuco). The stone church was originally built in 1859 but destroyed on February 12, 1945 during the Second World War. The reconstruction of the church of Calamba was headed by Father Eliseo Dimaculangan. The original altar was burned in 1862 but immediately rebuilt by Father Leoncio Lopez. The first Filipino priest, Father Angel Villaruz, served the longest in this church for 43 years since 1901.
The church of Calamba is a stone church built under the Baroque style. It has several stained glasses, two of which are in the church entrance depicting St. Dominic and San Lorenzo Ruiz. Other stained windows depicts the seven holy sacraments of the Church such as baptism, reconciliation, confirmation and among others.
The church baptistery where Rizal was baptized on June 22, 1861 by the then parish priest of Calamba Father Rufino Collantes and his godfather Father Pedro Casanas is a recognized National Historical Landmark (Level 1). The declaration was made by virtue of Resolution No. 2 of the Philippine Historical Commission (now National Historical Commission of the Philippines) on August 19, 1976 under Section 4 of the Executive Order No. 260 dated August 1, 1973 and amended by Executive Order No. 375 dated January 14, 1974. The original baptismal font was restored including original church items and reliquaries during Rizal's time. A transcript of Rizal's existing baptismal record is displayed on the left side of the baptistery entrance. The original baptismal records including the canonical books were lost on September 28, 1862 when Calamba Church was burned.

Sna mpansin ang wlang msyadong pinagbago s city n no.9 s pinkamalaking pondo s lhat ng cities s pinas
Magandang araw! Napansin ko rin po ang kalagayan ng Calamba City. Bagamat ito ay ika-9 sa pinakamalaking pondo sa lahat ng lungsod sa Pilipinas, mukhang hindi pa rin sapat ang mga pagbabago at pag-unlad na nagaganap. Mahalaga pong malaman kung saan napupunta ang pondo at kung paano ito nagagamit para sa ikabubuti ng mga residente. Sana po ay mabigyan ng pansin ng lokal na pamahalaan ang mga isyung ito at magsagawa ng mga hakbang upang mas mapabuti pa ang ating lungsod.
Salamat po sa inyong malasakit at patuloy tayong magtulungan para sa ikauunlad ng ating bayan!
