History
New Lucena was called Jimanban, a village of the town of Municipality of Cabatuan as early as 1800 and then of Santa Barbara beginning in 1866. It was organized into a town by seceding from Santa Barbara on October 9, 1877.
It was fused back to Santa Barbara during the American colonial period through the passage of Act No. 719 by the Philippine Commission on April 4, 1903, and finally it was granted independence and municipal status by virtue of Republic Act No. 50 on October 4, 1946. Its name Lucena was changed to New Lucena pursuant to Republic Act No. 1255 on June 10, 1955.
The church was established in 1902, and the first parish priest was Fr. Mansueto Zabala.
