St Agustine Church (Paoay Church)

Paoay's former name is "Bombay" originally located in the village of Callaguip along the coastal shores of the South China Sea.  It is believed that the first inhabitants were a peace loving tribe from Bombay, India.
Word: Paoay comes from a statement "maka-paoay kami" (Dialect meaning "we could live independently").
