It was in March 1976 when His Eminence Jaime Cardinal Sin, Archbishop of Manila saw the need of establishing a new parish for the zealous villagers of San Lorenzo, Salcedo, Legaspi and the residents of Dulo in Barangay Pio del Pilar. Before then, their spiritual needs were met through the St. Ildefonso Parish, the first Salesian parish in Makati with Fr. John Rizzato as pastor. St. John Bosco Parish was founded on March 2, 1976 with Fr. Godfrey Roozen, SDB as its first parish priest. Fr. Roozen, guided by the mission of the parish patron saint, St. John Bosco – The Father and Teacher of the Youth, .untiringly organized the parish to grow from the small community of mass-goers in the chapel next to the Don Bosco Technical Institute into a very active hub of prayer and service for the residents and office workers of Makati.
